somehow summer season but it is rainy so

i did not go out to play with my friends

i am blessed with two siblings and mom

i see in your background you are at some

public place so are you done yeah you

know i i had an emergency so i had to

come out uh but i obviously couldn't

cancel my session so i decided to take

it from here itself hope it's not a

problem for you

yes it is not

all right okay

uh and i hope my voice is also clear

because i really couldn't find like a

very you know indoor quiet place as such

so i just

because you know the network also

doesn't work everywhere so that is why

i'm just standing here

okay so

if you don't mind can i ask you that

what was the emergency in which you came

to the mall was it to buy some clothes

something

no no so uh basically my friend so i'm

in college right now okay

so i'm in delhi and my friend one was

looking for a flag a pg where she could

live okay so she uh suddenly called me

and she asked me to come with her

because obviously she couldn't go alone

so um i couldn't like deny like i not

wanted to leave her alone so i agreed to

go with her so after all the work was

done then

um

but

my session timing was almost

there so like

it was all almost 7 45 by the time we

have we had you know

uh checked all the flats and everything

so after that i didn't have time to you

know reach back home and then take the

sessions and in the metro i don't get

the signal and everything so then that

will lead me to missing my sessions that

is why i thought i'll just hang around a

little more take my sessions and then go

home

so that is i would say

[Music]

okay

yeah

where are you from

i am from bangalore of karnataka

that's great you're having sha right

yes

avisha so which class are you in hamisha

i am in sixth standard

oh wow

so what are your favorite hobbies

i like to play with my siblings ghost

games else apart from that i also like

to read spiritual

books oh my god that sounds interesting

what have you read or what was the last

thing that you read

what have you already read means are you

asking that how many books you have

finished off what do you have no no no

the last book that you read

i did not complete any of them but yeah

they are going on

okay okay

so what are you currently reading

currently i'm i don't read

one

just name whatever

whatever books that you remember

i remember the books

beyond birth and death

elevation to krishna consciousness

and

uh

can i ask you how did you develop the

interest for these books

my father

my father was an inspiration for me to

read all these books and my mother who

is a pious lady she worships and because

of

the association i got into this

okay

all right that's interesting

okay so have you gone through the

session document

yes

so today's topic is fame right

yes

so should we begin with the topic

yes

all right

so can you tell me what does fame mean

what is the meaning of the word fame

fame means to be famous

and what is famous

payments famous means he should be a

person who is known by many people

exactly when many people know you you're

popular for some work or something that

you've done right that's when you're

famous that's when you have fame right

yes

so what do you want to be famous someday

could you repeat your question would you

want to be famous someday

well i'm i i can if i become famous then

also i would not mind and if i don't

become famous then also i will not mind

so basically you don't care whether

you're famous or not right

yes how do you think is a famous

person's life different than

yours yours are mine

a famous person as uh

probably uh or atma because most of the

time a famous person is rich

yeah but yes you cannot go on freely at

all and

to be famous he has to do a lot of hard

work so he will not even be free but as

our life

we are free free we cannot roam around

freely

and we can we don't have much work as we

are not famous if we want to be famous

we have to do hard work

so talking about that somewhere can you

like talk about the advantages and

disadvantages of being things

so firstly tell me the pros of being

famous what are the good things about

being famous

the good things about being famous is

everybody will be knowing you you'll be

like uh

we'll know you will be it's not will be

no you it's will know you okay everyone

will know you

you'll be known by everyone

yeah and you can also you will be rich

everyone will know you you can enjoy

whatever is happening everyone will take

your autograph you can you'll feel like

you're this and that will you'll feel uh

good and everyone will take your photos

you'll be

over everywhere and sometimes whenever

we are too famous we can also come on

books

exactly so it's a nice feeling when

people recognize you

while you're walking and everything

although it gets irritating after a

point

but yeah okay have you heard of this

coach

um be the change you want to see in the

world

have you heard

no

okay it's a very famous quote

that does this quote make sense to you

be the change you want to see in the

world it must mean that whatever you

want to see in the world you should

become it first

exactly so when you say that for example

uh you know stop air pollution

so rather than just telling people

around that okay uh stop for you know

air pollution you should somewhere give

up on using these private vehicles which

you know um

kind of release a lot of um pollutants

and all of that right so somewhere do

the change in yourself person then go on

to

uh you know and that will somewhere

inspire others so that's what it means

basically okay whether it be anything so

now uh the reason why i brought up this

sport is because i feel like

this sport applies the most to these

celebrities i feel because right now if

i decide to do something i'll do it

maybe

maximum or 10 of

10 people in my circle might get

inspired and they'll also do it that's

it right but if it's a famous space

person who's doing it who's doing maybe

some social work or some good thing

so many people get influenced by them

right because they they have so many

followers so many fans

right so they actually and whatever they

say really brings that impact so that is

why i feel like this

um be the change you want to see in the

world applies most the most to them

because they are able to bring that

change do you agree

yes i do

yeah so in that sense that is also

somewhere a pro

right it's an advantage

of of becoming famous

so

yeah now can you talk about the

disadvantages of being famous

we will not be able to roam freely and

we will not be have free time and we

will land the most

hardest part we have to do a lot of work

because hard work only makes us famous

is it really the case

is it true that only hard work can make

you famous

well i think

i would say most of the times

many times but not always

for example

do you know aradhna

if i'm not wrong that's her name right

um i ashwara bachchan's daughter

right

no i don't know

okay uh with our other now or you know

many of these kids

who are the you know sons and daughters

of these celebrities

they become famous for no reason they

didn't work hard or anything right they

are famous just because their parents

are or their family is very influential

or something like that right so that

doesn't mean that they are not famous

just because they didn't work hard

famous means being known by many people

and many people know them so that makes

them famous but that is not

as an outcome of the hard work that they

did right so that is why you can't say

that it is a

very

basic factor of being famous i mean it

can be one of them but not a mandatory

one okay

so

that's what i would say what else okay

so that was the the advances and and

disadvantages also there's this word i

mean what you said only that

basically privacy

right

people

these famous people don't have enough

privacy

that's at the other word for saying that

they can't roam around freely and

everything right

right yes

yeah okay another thing

somewhere

i feel like they have a lot of stress

what do you think

yes i also think the same

why do you think so i mean i was going

to elaborate but i want you to why do

you think they have more stress than we

do

because if we they'll have lots of works

to do

work to do

um it's not that we don't have work to

do it's more you know like the fact that

um

you know we

when we um

do something even supposing we end up

doing something wrong okay

we might be punished for it there might

be some fine maybe a family would get to

know and that's it

but whenever it's a celebrity who does

something wrong it becomes a huge issue

a huge news and everyone gets to know

it's all over the television and

everything right

so that kind of is somewhere very

pressurizing i mean

um that is why people say that being

famous comes with a price

which they have to deal with right it's

not easy to handle the fame and

everything that comes along with it

right

yes

yeah

so um supposing you want to be famous

or you are going to become famous what

do you think you would be famous for for

studies okay so what kind i mean what's

your interest what do you think you can

become famous for according to your

capabilities

i don't um what are my capabilities

i can say that i can become famous for

i don't know

okay do you sing or dance or something

no i don't think

i don't um

sing or dance with the i don't learn

dancing or i learn singing sometimes

it's not necessary that you learn but

you know

maybe it can be your hobby it's not

necessary you're really good at it you

can just do it for fun as well right in

general i was asking that okay

okay

so i can say that

normally i can sing

okay

all right

um

so what are you good at what is your

talent what do you think is your talent

to carry many things on my head

pardon i can i feel that i can take

anything you put it on my head i can

balance it and move here and there so

basically you're talking about time

management or memory

holding memory

i'm not talking about anything else

anything

that's great i mean

that's amazing i think i i mean

um you know having a good memory is also

like

really important

okay

what's your favorite subject

social science

why

because it is new to me

oh so you know all the

sums and formulas of max

no

then that's also new to you then do you

like math

no i don't

why don't you like maths

because it is an old subject i already

know some some things about it okay okay

so social science was introduced to you

this year only in class six

in class sixth

social science i knew social science

from when i was fifth or fourth i also

i knew it

and i had a social science book i would

read it but it is the first time in

school when i am studying social science

it is happening

okay

what's your favorite chapter what do you

like the most about social science

i like

history

history so you're interested in history

that's great

all right okay

yeah but only one part of the tree

i get it i get it not all topics are

interesting right

yeah

okay so with that at the end of the

session time is up so anything you want

to ask or say before we end

no

all right so i must say it was a really

great session and i love talking to you
