Dear Diary,
I am very excited today and feel myself to be on cloud nine. It is only because I could perform my role with perfection. At first I was a bit disappointed when I saw my mono-syllabic dialogue ‘Oh’ ! scribbled on a piece of paper. I felt as if these people were pulling my leg. I had a feeling of disappointment, felt insulted and frustrated. But then I remembered my ideal Guru Gogon Pakrashi’s words that no role is big or small. I immediately decided that I would perform this role with perfection, come what may. I rehearsed a lot and thought of all the emotions that I would put into it. Finally, the moment arrived. The hero collided with me with great force. I could see stars in front of my eyes but I didn’t lose my courage. I still uttered that word and immediately realised that I had been successful in my attempt. I was so happy to achieve satisfaction. I never even bothered about taking money from the director and came back home full of joy and zeal. I knew I had not failed my Guru, my mentor. I was satisfied with my role.
