Robin Williams, may you truly find peace
I have never felt so strongly and have never been so emotionally attached to an ‘Actor’, especially since I have never met him….but let’s face it. Robin Williams is not just another actor. He is by far the greatest talent and powerhouse of energy and epitome of sheer creativity I have ever seen. So, when I heard the news today morning at 5:00 Am (IST), I was shocked and in utter disbelief.
Whenever I used to feel down about any aspect of life, I used to read comic books or watch cartoons or end up watching comedy shows. Without a doubt one of my all time favorites was “Mork and Mindy”. His phrases ‘Nanu, Nanu; Shazbot’ and his eccentricity as Mork the alien touched me and tickled my funny bone irrespective of the mood I was in. He was a man who portrayed plethora of roles with so much ease and grandeur that you became one with the story.
I remember watching Patch Adams, Good Will Hunting, Mrs.Doubtfire, Dead Poets Society and so many more of his performances with excitement, but for me his most memorable roles will forever be “Robin Williams’ as Mork from Ork (Including his special appearance in HAPPY Days TV shows as Mork the alien meeting the humdrum Richie Cunningham played by Ron Howard), his amazing voice as the lovable Genie from Aladdin, Popeye and I could just go on and on here.
His energized stream-of-consciousness with which he delivered some of the greatest comic lines of all time and his genius and brilliance of impersonating cultural references with one-liners that made more impact at times than the entire story line of a movie will forever keep him in all of our hearts.
THANK YOU for your immense talent Mr.Robin Williams. You will truly be missed!
