4.50 am: Another day, another flight, feeling a bit unwell. Heavy downpour. I make my way to the airport.

6.30 am: We shift the travel schedule to Nagpur. The flight is delayed by two hours.

9 am: Am listening to John Mayer, James Blunt, Phil Collins, Oasis, Lifehouse and some progressive trance on my iPod.

11 am: We land and I get an sms from Bhattsaab (Mahesh Bhatt). He had seen OUATIM at the screening last night and absolutely loved it. He wants five tickets to see the show in Gaiety -- first day first show. I'm zapped. He doesn't enjoy movies too much and he wants to watch OUATIM again?!

1 pm: We go to NIFD. It's a fashion institute. These bright students have designed retro outfits for a theme party to be held this evening. We visit five packed classrooms and speak to students about the movie.

2 pm: Lunch at a popular restaurant.

4 pm: A visit to a cinema hall. There's a huge crowd that has poured out on the roads. We enter the theatre and address the local media at a press conference. A press guy asks me a "hatke" question. Aapki image kab tab serial kisser ki bani rahegi? I replied, "Jab tak aap yeh sawaal poochte rahoge. Tab tak!"

5 pm: I go back to the hotel to do radio interviews and some news and TV ones. By this point, I start feeling a light buzz in the head. The kind of feeling you get after a few tequila shots.

8.30 pm: Flight back home!!! Miracle!! This one is on time.

12 pm: Sleepy time! Good night.
