I met Javed Chaudhry!

 Posted by Khushal Khan on May 7th, 2007 in Personal, News

YES i really did, yesterday while i was on a hostel trip to Murree and Islamabad, i never thought i’ll meet someone who i am a fan of and while i was hanging out with friends in the busy and colorful environment of Jinnah Super in Islamabad, i happen to go to Illusion’s mart to purchase a DVD of Spiderman 3 but unfortuantely they had the only camera print, just when i went to the upper floor i saw Javed Chaudhry with a young girl of nearly 6-7 years old( probably his daughter) going through different things. I was at first a bit surprised but then went straight to him and asked if he really was Javed, and YES was his answer after shaking hands. I was very happy cos i’ve got a chance to ask him directly whatever i wanted to, he just asked me for an introduction and i told him what i was, and then like a typical reporter i told him that i was his great fan and that i’ve written 2-3 blog posts in my blog website about him and got a very good response from public, specially some of them thinking as if i was he and then commenting at the end of the posts the typical questions that everyone had in mind about him, i.e why did he left Jang Newspaper? His answer was simply “Bas beta, un kay saath zara laraee ho gaee thee”, that’s all what i could get from him and then i thought asking him in depth would be a really stupid and weird thing to do as he was on an outing with family and kids.

In my recent posts like this , this ,this n this… i always mentioned that i am a keen fan of the guy and really like the style of his writing,and that i never knew him personally!!! but now that I’ve met him in person i would like to share the following updates.
So the update is Javed Chaudhry writes for the Newspaper called Express Daily (Urdu version) , anyone can read his columns for free on http://www.express.com.pk for free, and i dont know Javed Chaudhry personally so please stop posting silly comments asking for his phone number,addresses and other personal information.

Thanks!
