Tribute

                                                                
It reminds us of many sweet, bitter, unforgettable memories which continue to linger in our hearts forever. They form a integral part in our social circle and the affinity towards it ,is difficult to express in words. What if such a relationship is portrayed on stage in the most amicable and humorous way, yet uncompromising on the core of it's theme. Yes , I am talking about the most ever celebrated TV-show in the history of America.  F.R.I.E.N.D.S!!


It was third semester, when you get roasted and tortured in an asylum mentally I began watching the show. A little more than condensed with 10 seasons, it is about the incidents and events revolving around the day-to day life of six guys named Chandler, Monica, Joey, Ross, Rachel, Phoebe living together in Manhattan. Well- crafted scenes with natural comedy is the most striking feature of F.R.I.E.N.D.S with each season ending with a bang, which kindles the fervour in you to proceed to the next one. The cast crew pull off their roles with ease which takes us to the thought- Do they exist really?? The on-screen bond is so exquisite that it makes us jealous to make you yearn for one such group of people around you always.

The characterization is worth appreciating with diverse persona, where each one of them is unique. The creators have given space for all the characters to contribute which in turn gives a distinct shade to each of one them. Joey’s subtle way of flirting using the catchphrase – ‘How you doin?’ and his craze for food when he says ‘ Joey does not share food’. Chandler’s sarcasm of blabbering the wrong thing at the right time. The orgasm Monica gets when she organizes stuff and Dinosaur maniac Ross is described as a guy unlucky with girls having so many failed dates and three divorces. Phoebe entertains us with her weird expressions, high- pitched scream and ‘Smelly Cat’ music track. One cannot imagine about the most mature, well-placed proposal scenes!! The comedy is mind-boggling whose true essence never dies even on watching it for the nth time. It is a wholesome treat filled with fun and laughter.

The impact of this melodramatic show is magnified when it nears towards the end really, I would say it could be one of the most emotional moments in your lifetime. It will further instigate you to make new friends and cherish your left-over days with your loved ones. If you haven’t started watching yet, what are you waiting for?

I’ll be there for you
Like I’ve been there before
I’ll be there for you
Cause I know You will be there for me too.
