Happy birthday to my puraani-est dost on le Internet, happy birthday to Aqsa! 💕🌸 throws glitter and confetti in the air You know those friendships where you don't even need words? The ones where you can be the weirdest, silliest, paagalest version of yourself, without the fear of being judged? That's the kind of dosti I share with this one! Aqsay, you're a gem of a بندی . Never ever بدلنا .. or else I'll hit you with a پراٹھا ! Ab iss fact par, ke maine Urdu likhi, impress ho aur apna signature 'yeh cheez!' bolo. Hehe. A fun little fact for my Owlians: whenever you see me flaunting my Urdu slang, you should know that birthday girl here, taught me everything I know! Oh, her and Obi's vlogs. giggles Chalein, onto the VM's background story. Actually, first a little bit of background BEFORE the VM's background. Aqsa and I actually met each other on YouTube. I commented on one of her VMs, asking her what song she had used; and the rest, as they say, is history! Back then, we were two of the very few vidders who'd vid on Pakistani couples. Then Diyar-e-Dil happened and it started RAINING Pakistani vidders. Hehe. Then one day, I realised that, somewhere along the way, Aqsa had stopped vidding. As of a day before my birthday, back in September, the girl hadn't vid for 11 months! ELEVEN MONTHS. Of course, maine ussay sukoon se nahin bethne diya. I would constantly pester her to get back to vidding. Little did I know she'd end up breaking this roza ON MY BIRTHDAY! giggles The girl KEPT the fact that she was watching my favourite drama, Yeh Raha Dil, from me for weeks; because she wanted for it to be a surprise! Hum saath fangirl bhi na kar sakay! sigh As you all know, although I've vidded on Hayat and Zaki numerous times, I'd yet to make a cute, happy-ish sa VM. Saare jo hain, they were either about the two pining for each other, or some Shakespeare-level, jazbaati spiel. When Aqsa's birthday was approaching, I thought to myself, 'mouqa bhi hai, tareekh bhi hai, tehwaar bhi! [Lol, #insidejoke] Toh bana diya maine! Although I was late to jump on the 'Hawayein' train, I think I might be their clingiest passenger. It's been over two months.. and my love for this song never diminishes; it only grows. The pyaari melody, which makes you feel as if you're floating on an imaginary cloud; the sadqafiably cute words.. I mean, what's NOT to love? When I first heard the song, I immediately thought of Hayat at my favourite, 'banati hai toh tu, woh yaadein,' verse. The sequence played in my head like a montage, and I knew what had to be done. I thought up a story; butchered the song and switched it around to my liking.. and voila! dusts hands and smiles a la Jugnoo I hope you love your little gift, Aqsay. BOHAT pyaar se banaai hai! Love you, my 90s ki heroine, partner-in-ajeebpan, opposite of 'chumbak,' Sookie to my Lorelai, Hero to my Soldier, Bobby to my Deol [LOL!], Leonard to my Sheldon! splatters cake all over your face and smothers you in a squishy sa hug Couple: Hayat & Zaki Show: Yeh Raha Dil Actors: Yumna Zaidi & Ahmed Akbar Ali ________________________ #FatOwlVMs #FOVMyrd #YehRahaDil #HayatZaki #YumnaZaidi #AhmedAli #AhmeNa #YumniBumni #PopoKiBirthday #JabFariMetPopo #JabHarryMetSejal does the wavey-hand thing she does #Hawayein #IPyaarThisSongSoMuch
