It is said that there are about 6 people in the World who have the same face.
Ever think of meeting them in person?
When I read this so called fact, my fictional mind went into overdrive and I started imagining myself meeting people with same face as I own… but, it was difficult to imagine a story with this background. I don’t know from which place will they belong – what will be their background, what language they could speak and whether they would be of same gender…
But, this fact had me fascinated and I thought of writing something about such an occurrence.
I love to read multiple books at the same time… meaning, I might be reading The Philanderer by G B Shaw in the free time in the morning, maybe I might be reading Ramayan or Mahabharat in the free time in the afternoon, I might be reading some fiction by Alistair McLean or somebody else in the evening and maybe I might be reading some fiction in Marathi or Hindi before I go to bed…
None of these, I would have read completely – just tits and bits during the odd free time I get… maybe I have read these books earlier and just wanted to relish few moments from these…
One day, I thought I got a brilliant idea when I was travelling with nothing to do but imagine things…
Anyway, coming back to what I was saying, I got a brilliant idea and I wrote a story in short format thinking I would probably write an interesting novel some other day on the idea… the idea remained in my notebook – forgotten, till my friends dug it out. Even they thought this was a brilliant idea, but, I was not in a mood to write a book on this – so they asked me the permission to host this short story on the website and I conceded…
Brace yourself – soon, this will be posted as a short series here on the website… Wait for it…
