Bhopal, Feb 4:
The so-called festival of lovers i.e. Valentine's Day is approaching fast. The heartbeats of these lovers are increasing day by day with the coming of this day. They are getting restless as every moment now seems to be difficult to pass.
With the ongoing resistance and opposition about the celebrations of this day, some loving couples are nervous and apprehensive whereas some want to utilise this day in expressing their love to the beloved. They are in a mood to enjoy the moment fully. Youths have geared themselves to celebrate Valentine's Day on February 14 to the hilt. These youths strongly believe that if they love someone then there should be no hesitation in accepting and expressing it. They feel that we should not be afraid in expressing love.
Almost all youths are busy in planning for this day. Like every year, these youths are worried about where to celebrate this day, where they can spend some time with their beloved and no one could interfere.
Bhopal Today Team interviewed some youths of the capital
to know about the safest place to celebrate Valentine's Day.
Library as favourite place
Amrita says, 'In my opinion, library is the best place where you can express love as nobody can suspect here. One can easily spend two-three hours over here. Moreover, there is no danger of anything. This place is fit to express love to the beloved in a cool way'.
State Museum is safe
Saad says 'On this day, the biggest danger for the youths is the opposition by the enemies of lovers. In my view, State Museum is the safest place to celebrate this day. One gets this opportunity, once in a year that is why one should observe cautiousness and avail the opportunity. I would suggest the youths to celebrate this day at State Museum and enjoy the wonderful experience of life.
Green City is a better option
Rahul says, 'This day is special for the lovers. We wait for this all along the year for this. I believe that this day is for all lovers and not for boys and girls alone and it should be seen from broader perspective. A day is not sufficient enough to celebrate love and on the contrary, it can be celebrated lifelong. I would advise people to go to Green City to celebrate this day'.
Celebrate in temple
Poonam says, 'Temple has always been the best place for lovers. When God is with them then no body can harm. Most of the people like to go to the temple on this day. In my opinion, the Temple of 'Tarawali Mata', which is far from the city is the suitable place. There is enthusiasm along with fear among the youths about celebrations on Valentine's day. I feel that if they take some precautions then they can enjoy this day totally'.
Will stay at home
Shahnawaz says, 'love aggravates with suppression. The youngsters of the capital are in no way far behind in this field. They find their own refuge of love despite of vigil and opposition. I feel that home is the safest place where there is no danger. I am not going out of home that day. I would also suggest that people should celebrate Valentine's day at home'.
Kaliasot Dam is perfect
Dushyant feels that one should celebrate love on all days except this day because a minor problem could shatter happiness. However, those who wish to celebrate this day should go to Kaliasot Dam as it is a perfect place for them'.
