Click !<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><span style="font-size: 85%;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;">Am finally back to my dearesssttttt blog spot...and it feels soooo good..seriously...for a person like me...who at every point in time whether in a bus or on a cycle, is busy making up stories and who at each point in life is ready to include the character of a "YET ANOTHER " stupid person..it was actually very difficult to control myself and be away from blogspot ..but such is life. Actually the last time I announced my marriage on my blogspot..I got very emotional comments from some handsome and some not so handsome guys...half of them even took on to drugs after hearing my new marital status...for them I can only pray that guys don't lose hope you will surely find an average girl for yourself..(heheheh..coz the best is already taken...;))).....)..and plzzzzzzzzz say no to drugs..:D...</span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;"><br />
<br />
</span> <span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;">In this break had been to Mauritius...and what a place it is ... beautiful..so romantic.....Now in Mauritius S and I were very sure we would have a really good time and would try to enjoy each and every moment..I mean how many times do you actually get a week off from office..hai na..so it was high time we left all our tensions at home. To make it more eventful we decided to enroll in for some adventure sports . So the first day we decided to go in for Paragliding... Arrangements were done and we were told by our agent that we would be joined by one more couple. Another couple...!!!!....insecure that I am..I immediately started instructing S to stay away from the girl..but I tell you boys will always be boys..he wore his gogs..styled his hair....thus raising my BP to an extreme level...</span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;"><br />
<br />
</span> <span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">S</span> : " </span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%; font-style: italic;">Hey don't worry yaar I will not pay any special attention to her...but can't help it if she does </span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;">" ..giving a wicked smile..</span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;"><br />

<br />
</span> <span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Scene 2</span>: Our vehicle stopped near a hotel...being a possessive wife and a jealous one too (like a true bhartiya naari )..I kept peeping through the car window to get a clear view of the couple who would be joining us....from a distance I saw two Indian Uncle's approaching our car...both of them in their 50's..very fat...wearing dehati goggles...</span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;">" </span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%; font-style: italic;">Hmmm okkk..</span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;">"..surprised me</span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;"><br />

<br />
</span> <span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;">Uncle 1 and Uncle 2 sat with us, raised their gogs and gave a widddddddeee smile...</span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;">we returned a grin ...</span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;"><br />
<br />
</span> <span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Uncle 1 :</span> " </span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%; font-style: italic;">Ahhhh Indianss ??? </span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;">"</span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;"><br />

</span> <span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;">Uncle 2 looking at both of us suspiciously..then suddenly winking at S and asking...</span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;"><br />

</span> <span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Me trying to clarify :</span> " </span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%; font-style: italic;">No no no we are married...</span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;">"</span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Uncle 2 </span>: " </span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%; font-style: italic;">Hahahah ok ok...good good </span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;">"</span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;"><br />

</span> <span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Uncle 1 :</span> " </span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%; font-style: italic;">Jee we are from Chandigarh...we have come here for holidays..</span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;">"</span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;"><br />

<br />
</span> <span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;">The whole way they kept on talking and talking and..talking...as if they had a bloody motor inside their mouth. After 1 hr which in their company seemed like 10 whole days..we reached that place ..</span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;">Atlaaassst fresh air...and paragliding...boss it was a wonderful experience.. ( This is highly recommended to everyone....believe me you feel like a bird...wowwww...:) )</span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;"><br />
<br />
</span> <span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;">Now if you are married or have a Bf/Gf you would understand this universal truth.. that if you go out on a romantic holiday or an outing with your other half..you end up having no pics clicked together as a couple.. In our case it is the same thing...our fb accounts are filled with my pics in different poses..some under a tree ..some on top of a tree and that too trees at different locations.. and poor S gets left with minimum pics...that too don't turn out that well ( I mean..come on.. everybody is not blessed with a photogenic face like mine nooooo....:P....sorry S....heyy but you are improving...:) )..and only one or two pics together..so half the time we have to explain to everybody that baba we had gone to X place together onlyyyy....But this time S came up with an idea ...S being one hell of a fighter...had decided that this time he would have as many pics as mine...better than mine..and even couple pics...so that everybody would know who had spent the bucks on these trips...hmmm fair enough I thought..but how??</span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;"> " <span style="font-style: italic;">Uncles kab kaam aayenge...!!!...we will ask these uncles to take our pics...as it is ..what will they do here... </span>"..S suggested</span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;">It was a moment of pride for me..I always knew S was meant to do big things in life...</span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;">" <span style="font-style: italic;">Tum mahaan ho S..waah </span>"...Sob sob..</span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;"><br />
<br />
</span> <span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;">So we jumped into action..we could see both Uncles...I went to one of the uncles..</span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;">" </span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%; font-style: italic;">Aaaankeeel aankeel</span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;"> ( Plz pronounce it the way it is...my friend used to call uncles as aaankeeeel...and all indian uncles used to find it soo sweet that all uncles..however rude they were would melt like butter and from rude uncle would turn into Santa clause clone aaankeeels...ho ho ho..)...</span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%; font-style: italic;">aaankeeel aaankeel..will you please take our pic together..</span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;">"...</span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;">and like I said...aankeel melted..</span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;"><br />
<br />
</span> <span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;">" </span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%; font-style: italic;">Jarroorr jee jarooor...take a pose take a pose</span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;">"</span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;">S and I flashed our smiles...hurriedly S combed his hair...confidently put his hand on my shoulder and we both gave a pose of Hum saath saath hain...</span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;"><br />
<br />
</span> <span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Uncle :</span> " </span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%; font-style: italic;">Wonderful jee...wonderful</span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;">"...showing even with sign language of his fingers that what a wonderful pic that would be... " </span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%; font-style: italic;">One more pic ho jaaye jee one more pic</span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;"> .."</span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;"><br />
<br />
</span> <span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;">Again we gave another pose...Uncle seemed so happy with our talent that he too decided not to be left behind..and started click click click...</span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;"> After 2 -3 pics ...We took the camera from Uncle and hurriedly wanted to check what had been saved...</span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;">I still remember.. when we saw the pics...S and I looked at each other with a mixed reaction..it was a complicated one..laughter ..trembling lips..confusion and shock...</span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;">The first pic didn't have our body only..it only had our 2 smiling heads in the background of a wide open sky...and second pic had the photo of only one ear.. I still don't know whether it was S's ear..my ear or freaking somebody else's ear...!!!!..</span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;"><br />
<br />
</span> <span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;"> </span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%; font-weight: bold;">Aaaaaankeeeeeeeellllll ye tumne theek nahi kiya...!!!!..tumne humara pyaar dekha hai gussa nahiiiiiiii....</span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;">.......arre how was it possible that somebody would not even know how to use a camera....arre if he didnt know..he should have told us na baba...wastage of time and pose..</span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;"><br />
<br />
</span> <span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;">But not for our 2 aankeels ...I think this gave them some idea..coz after sometime.. we could see them approaching all bikini clad girls and repeating the question to them :</span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;">" </span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%; font-style: italic;">Madam Do u want us to take your photooograp???..</span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;">"</span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;"><br />
<br />
</span> <span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;">And innocent that these foreigner kudi's are ..they very sweetly would handover their cameras to these uncles...they would take a photograph and do some timepass talks with them..</span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;"> Now everything was ok..but imagine..the reaction of these foreigners when they would see the end result on their cameras...India's name totally ruined...stupid aaaankeeeels...</span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;"><br />
<br />
</span> <span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;">To cut a long story short ....Phewwww...whole Mauritius trip was excellent except for ofcourse the uncle part..and yes again we ended up having separate S's pics.. ( this time with little improvement).., my separate pics ( mind blowing as usual ) and the 2 smiling faces of our's dangling together...:D</span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;"><br />

A girl gets on the bus, comes to his seat "Good Morning!!!" . Abhi looks back at her through half closed eyes, replies "Good Night " and then proceeds to return to his half hour nap . Unfortunately, he is woken up by a punch in the arm.."Wake up, bozo!" She looks at him with a big smile on her face. "I'm not sitting next to you to listen to you snore."….Half-heartedly, Abhi opens his eyes and turns to her "What's up?"</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">Preeti was good-looking and slightly tomboyish. She was also his best buddy. "Come on" she says "Don't look so disappointed. You'd rather sleep than talk to me???"</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">" But I talk to you everyday, Preeti."</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"But you also sleep everyday."</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"It's not enough."</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"So… you've had enough of talking to me, eh?"</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">You can never argue with a statement like that, so he gives up..smiles and says, "OK, sweetheart. What's on your mind?"</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"I wanted to tell you what happened yesterday. Can you guess?"</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"Hmmm lemme see..Anurag called you last night."</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"Ohh my ghosh ..how did you know?"</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"Oh, he asked me for your number yesterday."</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"And you gave it to him?"</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"What else could I do? And stop complaining. You've been drooling over him for weeks now. He must have thought he had a chance."</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"You like putting me in these situations, don't you?" she says.</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"No…. That's not true. I love putting you in these situations!"</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">That invites another punch in the arm.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">Abhi and Preeti had known each other for a year now. They did tell each other about their joys and sorrows,victories and defeats. Abhi would tell her about all his crushes and she'd scold him for being silly. She'd drag him to classical music concerts and he would add them to the list of things she 'owed him' for.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">It was 12:00 am and his phone was ringing. "Hello"</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"Happy Birthday!" It was she.</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"You're supposed to throw me a surprise party, sweetheart. Not just call to say Happy Birthday."</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"Well then open your door, dumbo!"</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">So he does and finds her, cell-phone in hand, at his doorstep -- with what seems like half the population of his company. His roommates were supposed to be working late that night. Now he knew why...:)</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">That day he blew a lot of candles (seemed like much more than 25), cut his cake, gets painted with the cake's icing. If Preeti had had her way, she'd probably have preferred to use a paintbrush and a can of paint.</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">That day they chat for an hour after everyone has left.</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"I think it's time I left," she said finally, trying to stifle a yawn. Abhi drops her home. As she is getting out of the car</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"Hey, Preeti."</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"What?"</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"Thanks."</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"Hey, don't get senti on me now!" she smiles and leaves..</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">Abhi sits there for some time, just thinking. Their conversations were</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">always like this - a little joking, a little teasing ..</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">But somehow, something had changed since the moment she had turned up at his door that night...It was special..very special ..and he wanted to do something special for her..he knew Preeti loved reading books..So finally he buys half-a-dozen omnibus collections of various authors.Slowly he starts spending a lot of time at her place .</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">“Hey let me take this novel home”</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"I'm not as stupid as you, ape-man. I know you will lose them. Plus, you dog-ear your books. You're not doing that to these masterpieces. So if you want to read them, you read them here. And if you want to mark your place, use a bookmark."</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;"> "Need I remind you that it was me that bought you the books in the first place? "</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"So? They're mine now."</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"Well, then. I've been meaning to ask you this for a long time. Where exactly is my birthday gift?"</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"It was in your tummy at one point of time. It's probably been washed into the sea by now."</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"Huh?"</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"Remember the cake I baked you on your birthday?"</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"You what? You can't bake cakes!" That was a mistake. She looked hurt.</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"You baked me a cake????" ..She didn't say a word. She just shrugged.</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">Abhi was stunned. "But you never told me."</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"You didn't ask." That was typical of her.</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"It was fantastic! And you wasted most of the icing on me!"</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"The cake was for you, dumbo."</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"How long did it take you to make the whole thing?"</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"Well, the chocolate cake took an hour and fifteen minutes, and so did the vanilla. Then cutting them up and putting them together took another 15 minutes. Each flavor of icing took 20 minutes for preparation. On oven it took another half and hour.. Cleaning up the mess took an hour."</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">She seldom claimed the credit for anything, but once she started</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">bragging, there was no stopping her. However, Abhi wasn't thinking about that right then.</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"You spent over five hours on that cake?"</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"I forgot to mention," she continued, "the hours I spent the week before that, practicing… Even the birds wouldn't touch the first three cakes!"</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">He couldn't help but ask. "Why?"</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"Because the first one got burnt, the second one was only half cooked ,and in the third one, I forgot to add sugar."</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">It was just like her, to try to divert the conversation.</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"I mean why did you spend so much time on baking me a cake?"</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">She looked at me like I'd asked her why the sun rises in the east.</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"For your birthday, stupid. Of course, I also wanted to beat every gift you've ever got me. Try beating this one." She was grinning like she'd won the world championship.</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">As far as he was concerned, she had. He'd never spent a week making her anything. Getting her a gift normally involved taking her to the store, letting her choose and use his credit card. Suddenly, he felt cheap. "Thanks.." was the only thing he could say. "Thanks a lot..."</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"Hey. Are you getting senti on me again?"</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">And this time he was…</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">He was still mulling over his feelings for Preeti the next day at work when his boss tells him that the company wants to send him to New York for a couple of years. Normally, this wouldn't have made much of a difference ..but right then, the first thought that comes to his mind is that he'd be away from Preeti for two whole years. He had had crushes before…lots of them…but this was different.</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"Do you have any problem in going?" boss asks</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"Not really..When do I have to leave?"</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">He had a month.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"Wow! New York ! Great! I've heard it's a fantastic city! "</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">Preeti was obviously very excited about his going. She didn't seem to share any disappointment on what he now saw as 'separation'.</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">They had known each other for a little over a year, and were very close, but beyond some mild flirting, the relationship had never got even close to romantic. That was, of course, until he found out she had spent a week baking a cake for him. It's funny how small things seem to make such a big difference.</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"What happened?" she asks. "You don't seem very happy."</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"Oh..it's just that it's so sudden, that's all. And you know I was never all that interested in going to America ."</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"What an idiot. Go see the place. I've heard the women there are</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">amazingly beautiful." She had a sly smile on her face. He wanted to tell her, he didn't care if he laid his eyes on another woman again, if she wasn't with him... But he didn't.</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">He realized that he only had another month with her. She'd rejected every guy who'd asked her out ever since he had known her. He didn't want the same to happen with him, and he didn't want to make it awkward between them. He didn't want to risk that month. He wanted it to be the best time he had ever spent with her.</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">They ate out almost every night. She'd call him up almost everyday to tell him to add 'one more item' in his list.</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">And with every passing day, he was falling more deeply in love with her.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">The month swept by quickly. The day Abhi was supposed to leave, he asks her to come with him to the airport. They reach the airport four hours early to beat the rush. He finishes the formalities and comes to sit with her.</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"Hey, Champ. Why so glum?" asks Preeti</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"I don't want to go,"</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"I don't want you to go either."</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"No, you don't understand." He could not hold it in any longer. "I can't</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">stand the thought of living without you by my side."</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">She stares at him.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"I love you a lot yaar..."</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">At this, a sound escapes her lips that sounds like a cross between a</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">sob and a laugh. "Well, dumbo, you've picked an absolutely fabulous time to tell me about it!"</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">A tear escapes her eyes.</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"How long have you felt this way?" …she was crying and smiling at the same time..he didn't know what to make of it.</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"From the day I found out you had baked me a cake."</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">She laughs. "That's all it took? Well, bozo, I guess a way to a man's heart is certainly through his stomach! Hold it. A month? You waited a month? You were the one who kept saying that if you really liked a girl you wouldn't waste a day in telling her!" ..She was smiling widely now…it looked funny, with her eyes all wet.</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"Well, I was confused. How did I know.. how you'd react? In fact, I</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">still don't understand your reaction. I thought it would change things between us. You've rejected every guy who ever proposed to you!"</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"That's because even I'm in love with you, you overgrown idiot!"</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"What?" …Somehow, He had never expected her to say that. She was in love with him?</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;"> "How long have you been in love with me?"</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"Ever since the day you offered to carry my suitcase for me."</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"But that was the first day I met you!"</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"I guess I was always a sucker for chivalry."</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"All this time you've been in love with me and you never said anything! Then you go and complain that I waited a month!"</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"You guys are so bad at reading a girl's mind."</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"You women are so good at keeping your thoughts a secret! Even Einstein couldn't figure you out."</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"Einstein was a nerd."</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"Hahahhah…but seriously…I really don't want to go." He had always maintained that love was a bucketful of emotions. He wasn't exactly delighted to be proved right.</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"Don't worry. I'm coming there in a couple of months."</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"How?"</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">She laughed. " Welllll…!!!!....I've got a project in New Jersey ."</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;"> " What? When did that happen? You never even told me!"</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"Well, I wasn't sure you'd propose before you left. And I couldn't</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">exactly sacrifice you to those New York women, could I? I had to watch out for myself. So I went on a project-hunting spree. There is an opportunity coming up for a project in about two months. Someone is coming back to India , so I'll be taking his place. They want me there for a little less than two years." She was beaming. "I realized I had struck gold!"</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">”But How come you didn't lay a trap for me a year ago?"</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"I tried giving you hints, dumbo, but you just wouldn't pay attention!" She was laughing. " You're the only guy I ever spent any time with…Wasn't that a big enough hint?"</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"Oooops…yeah….ok…What if I had rejected you?" ..now extremely flattered that she'd been crazy about him for a year...his ego swelling..</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"Rejected me…You must be kidding!" she was clearly amused. "I get proposed to every few days. You are the one who's been rejected more times in the last year than I can count on two pairs of hands!"</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">She really knew how to burst his bubble.</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"Hey," she said softly, "don't look so dejected. I said 'Yes', didn't</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">I?"</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;"> "Yes, you did. And you've made me a very happy man. But you know what would make me even happier?"</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"What?"</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">"If you learn to cook as good as you bake cakes."</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">A punch in the arm again…</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">Happy Ending…:)</span></span>Dimplehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01042059348853167284noreply@blogger.com16tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32767911.post-56393995545486929182008-04-02T08:48:00.000-07:002013-05-07T00:22:29.696-07:00<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">

<br />
<span style="font-family: verdana;">I kept quiet...After effect..psychology ..hmmmm...I remembered the time when I had lost something so dear..so special...I saw it going away..the pain that I had felt...the tears that I had hidden from this dushman zamaana ..sob sob..How had I felt..baaaaadddddd...very baddd</span> .<br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: verdana;">It started this way .. I had gone to one of my relatives house..( I was in 3rd std..to be more presice ). Now I was a very shy and sweet girl..(Like you all must have come to know by now...I have not changed a bit..ehm ehm..Thanku Thanku..; )...)....following exactly what was taught to me. Now here starts my emotional story ..which will tear apart your soul..</span> <br />
<span style="font-family: verdana;">Before entering the house..my mom gave my kid brother and me thoda sa Gyaan about basic etiquettes</span><span style="font-family: verdana;">...</span><br />
<span style="font-family: verdana;">" </span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-style: italic;">When aunty gives some thing to eat..do not eat the whole plate like you did last time </span><span style="font-family: verdana;">(Pointing towards my brother..</span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-weight: bold;">NOT ME</span><span style="font-family: verdana;">)</span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-style: italic;">...take only one piece...and also when you are given something dont grab it and start eating, say " No aunty" first time...and second time you can take it..and then say "Thank you aunty...</span><span style="font-family: verdana;">"..</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: verdana;">We were ready..I and my brother even did rehearsals. Like perfect two kids we entered aunty's place. Sat there like 2 angels and then came testing time..Aunty brought Gulab jamuns. Yum!! yum!! Garam garam Gulab jamun with Rabri on top...perfecttttttt.. I tried to control my feelings and my outburst of love for my Gulab jamun...At regular intervals I was eyeing it..waiting for aunty to ask..just ask once....my ankhon ki Gustakhiyaan was soon seen by many people. After waiting for like 20 min.. aunty atlast came...</span><br />
<span style="font-family: verdana;">" <span style="font-style: italic;">Dimple beta Gulab jamun loge??</span>"</span><br />
<span style="font-family: verdana;">I blushed a bit..." <span style="font-style: italic;">Nahi aunty</span> "..and waited patientlyyy for her to ask me the second time...</span><br />
<span style="font-family: verdana;">"<span style="font-style: italic;">ok</span>".. and she went away</span><br />
<span style="font-family: verdana;">ok???.....wasnt she supposed to ask me one more time...I mean this could not be...she went straight towards my brother..<br />" <span style="font-style: italic;">Gulab jamun loge??</span>"</span> <span style="font-family: verdana;"><br />" <span style="font-style: italic;">Yes aunty</span>".</span><br />
<span style="font-family: verdana;">" <span style="font-style: italic;">Ye lo beta..special gulab jamun</span>"</span> <span style="font-family: verdana;"><br />My brother gave me a wicked smile...I bit my lips..looked at my poor Gulab jamun...my lips trembled...this was cheating...Aunty had behaved unexpectedly...may be she didn't know that she was supposed to ask me again..may be she had never read that book on basic attiquetes... saddd...<br />Suddenly aunty asked me<span style="font-style: italic;"> " Dimple beta aapko Gulab jamun nahi pasand??...aapne kyu nahi khaya</span>"</span> <span style="font-family: verdana;"><br />Now what??...Somehow I had to improve my chances...I said something<br />like " <span style="font-style: italic;">Nahi aunty abhi garam hai na ..isliye..</span></span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;">per thoda der baad khaa sakti hun</span><span style="font-family: verdana;">"...speaking the last few words very clearly and with actions ..so that she would not miss it..</span><br />
<span style="font-family: verdana;">" <span style="font-style: italic;">Ok..mei fridge mai rakhti hun..so that you can eat it afterwards..</span>"</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: verdana;">That whole day there was not a single moment when I did not miss Gulab jamun...and that aunty ..so careless...she had totally forgotten about them..instead of bringing them for me..she was asking some stupid questions...I tried giving her hints..<br />" <span style="font-style: italic;">Aunty </span></span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;">fridge</span><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span style="font-style: italic;"> ka pani peena ha</span>i".." </span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;">Fridge</span><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span style="font-style: italic;"> ka colour bahuuuuuuut acha hai</span>"..<br />" <span style="font-style: italic;">Light jaayega toh </span></span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;">fridge</span><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span style="font-style: italic;"> chalta hai kya?</span>"...but all in vain....silly aunty....</span> <span style="font-family: verdana;">Suddenly my dad said.." <span style="font-style: italic;">ok then we will take your leave</span>"....</span><br />

(<span style="font-weight: bold;">Bigggggg Boooooo to her</span>)<br />But then things started changing. I began to notice things and do things that made me happy..in short I tried to make things work in this terrible marriage. I would spend time thinking on what I would write next instead of cribbing. Everywhere..in the bus..in a rickshaw..in a park or my bank I would wait for weird people to do something strange ..something funny ,so that I could write about them and feel immense pleasure..CC gave me a reason to live and to enjoy..:)<br /><a href="http://dimpleslife.blogspot.com/2006/08/unbounded-stupidity.html"> UNBOUNDED STUPIDITY </a> and <a href="http://dimpleslife.blogspot.com/2006/11/frustration-unlimited.html"> FRUSTRATION UNLIMITED</a> were two such real incidents .<br /><br />Then atlast I got a divorce from my marriage and it was bye bye to mom-in-law...:). The new office was cool ..(TouchWood). The rest of the posts were written with the new office in mind.<br /><a href="http://dimpleslife.blogspot.com/2006/10/saw-him-through-corner-of-my-eyes.html"><br />STUPID CUPID </a> is one of my favorite posts. I felt so stupid after the incident . But seriously those 5 days when I had spoken to this person X (on Intranet of my office) where the best days of my life...X rotated my life by 360 deg and then back to 0 deg.But cheers to X !!..we hav been gr8 friends..:)<br /><br />Then came the phase when I wrote my first love story <a href="http://dimpleslife.blogspot.com/2006/11/sweet-ogre.html"> SWEET OGRE</a><br />Faced criticism like anything from those who know me..70% people were shocked..I don't know why..I guess because they thought I could never write such a thing..and secondly because 100 % people thought it was my story..(<span style="font-style: italic;">Huh !!</span> )...but I thought what the hell..this was one such place where I could write wt ever i wanted..and nobody can dictate terms here..its my world..!! (and there was seriously nothing in it..you wont believe it, but I had to put a PS in that post..which was initially not there..!!)<br /><br />Then there were my flashback wala posts like<br /><a href="http://dimpleslife.blogspot.com/2007/01/chandrakanta-swashbuckling-fare.html"> CHANDRAKANTA</a>,<a href="http://dimpleslife.blogspot.com/2007/02/nostalgia.html"> NOSTALGIA:SCHOOL DAYZ</a>,<a href="http://dimpleslife.blogspot.com/2007/03/zzzzzzzzzzz_19.html"> ZZZZzzz</a><br />and some other incidents <a href="http://dimpleslife.blogspot.com/2007/05/laga-ki-chaay-pe-bulaya-hai.html"> LAGA KI CHAAY PE BULAYA HAI</a><br />It has been a gr8 journey...cheers to CC<br />Ohh my speech is over.. yeah plz help your self,can have a bite from that cake..:) ( and keep some for me tooo...:P )Dimplehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01042059348853167284noreply@blogger.com16tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32767911.post-43163503106447050142007-06-13T11:58:00.000-07:002007-06-13T11:59:17.752-07:00Art Of Living<span style="font-weight: bold;font-family:verdana;" >VII std</span><span style="font-family:verdana;"> : I had taken part in a group dance competition.On the first day itself I realized that the steps were difficult ..I just couldn't perfect them..I was so sure my friends would laugh at me..I had sleepless nights..</span><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;font-family:verdana;" >College</span><span style="font-family:verdana;"> : A friend left the Dance group just 2 days before the D day ..I was made a scape goat..I pleaded ..I warned ..but they emotionally blackmailed me..and next moment I was in the group and dancing like a statue..</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;">Now again the same situation..I saw myself standing in front of 20 unknown people .. and was asked to dance in front of them (</span><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" style="font-family:verdana;">Hellooo</span><span style="font-family:verdana;">!!!

Ki Chaay Pe Bulaya Hai<span style="font-family:verdana;">For those who visit my blog often..its a very weird title, but you will come to know the reason after some time.It was a war against my very dignified soul and my cheap soul. Cheapness won and the result was this post .</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;">After office when I was leaving for home one of my colleagues who stays near my place offered to give me a lift. Now I don't usually talk much to him. But a lift ..cool..I started calculating</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;font-family:verdana;" >Bus Fare : Rs 15</span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;"><span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;">Auto Fare till house</span><span style="font-weight: bold;"> : </span><span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;">Rs 11</span> ( why is Rs 11 Minimum charge for Navi Mumbai people..when others have to pay only Rs 9..thinking of complaining..seriously...my cheapness starts again..;) )</span><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;font-family:verdana;" >Total : Rs 26</span><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;font-family:verdana;" >Vs</span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Motorbike lift Fare</span><span style="font-weight: bold;"> :</span> <span style="font-weight: bold;">Rs 0</span></span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;">Hmm pretty tempting I said OK and hopped on the bike ... </span><span style="font-weight: bold;">Mistake No 1</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;">About this guy (As usual I will call him Mr X ).. he is a very quiet person and I used to think he was a geek of some sort .I remember he once sent a SMS to me, it took me 2 days to understand the damned message ..and I still have my doubts whether I have fully understood the quote..;)</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;"> We reached home .The poor guy had come all the way to drop me, just as a formality I asked him to come inside..I mean you usually do it right.."</span><span style="font-style: italic;font-family:verdana;" >Plz do come in</span><span style="font-family:verdana;"> "..when you actually don't mean it..but then he agreed instantly and said how he had always heard from my colleagues that I had a beautiful house.

After this I don't know what happened, but all the conceptions that I had had about him of being quiet and shy got blown away..(My remaining colleagues who are right now thinking that "</span><span style="font-style: italic;font-family:verdana;" >Naaah!! <span style="font-weight: bold;">He</span> is a very shy and quiet person</span><span style="font-family:verdana;">"... girlsss take him home..then you will surely come to know ) .</span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;">This boy..Once he started talking ..there was just no way to stop him .</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;font-family:verdana;" >Mr X</span><span style="font-family:verdana;"> : " <span style="font-style: italic;">I was in Xyz dept and then my Boss said blah blah and then I Thought...This is it...!! </span>"</span><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;font-family:verdana;" >Chorus ( Mom ,Granny and me ) </span><span style="font-family:verdana;">: " <span style="font-style: italic;">Tch tch then..??</span> "<br /><br /></span><span style="font-weight: bold;font-family:verdana;" >Mr X </span><span style="font-family:verdana;">:"<span style="font-style: italic;">..and then in USA..I thought..India is my home country..it needs me!!"<br /></span><span style="font-weight: bold;">Chorus</span> :" <span style="font-style: italic;">Waaah..!!.. very good </span>" ( Huh ...Live Swades Movie..;))<br /><br /></span><span style="font-weight: bold;font-family:verdana;" >Mr X</span><span style="font-family:verdana;"> :"<span style="font-style: italic;">and Blah.. blah...

I had been to one such meeting recently and the result was a disaster.</span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">5.30 pm</span>..I was desperately waiting to get out of office..only 30 minutes more and I would be a free bird...watch TV..sit online..but then I got this mail from my boss about a meeting which I would have to attend on Fraud Prevention.."<span style="font-style: italic;"> What Fraud Prevention ??..What a $#%# topic..Why meeeee??</span> ".Forget about the boring topic ..this meeting was at a office which is about 2 hrs from my place. "<span style="font-style: italic;">DAMN IT !! I will have to rush</span>" ..and my boss in his usual style said " <span style="font-style: italic;">Dimple this will be a life time ka experience..get the best out of it..thats why I suggested your name !! </span>" (Life time ka experience..?? ) .In my mind I was like "<span style="font-style: italic;"> Sir I don't want this experience..plzz you only go..don't send me..I am least interested</span>"..but in front of him I opened my mouth as if I had won a miss Universe contest..."<span style="font-style: italic;">Wowww..!!! Thank you Sir..It will be soooo interesting </span>"...I reached the place late..but was very sad to know that meeting had not yet started.After <span style="font-style: italic;">thoda</span> time the meeting started..sadly there was not a single person whom I knew..The meeting was boring and the trainer was worse..Yawn and a double YAWNnnnnn from my side...my eyes were drooping and I was dozing off at regular intervals..</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;">Don't know why but there is always a bugger in every meeting ( Let it be current office meetings or earlier college time meetings ) who feels fresh, active regardless of the shit topic being discussed..and has countless doubts..also these kind of species are least concerned about others.Now this kind was also present in my meeting.One point from the trainer 10 doubt's from his side...My sleep was getting disturbed because of him..every time he would ask a doubt ..our trainer would ask us the answer..toh naturally I would have to act as if I was thinking about the solution. Nodding my head time and again had caused a sprain in my neck, Torture had reached such a level..that different inventions that can be done (for people like me) where coming in my mind..what if I had some mechanism so that I could make a eye shape on my eyelid..people would think I am wide awake..but I would sleep inside...Heheheh nobody would come to know about that..and I would sleep silently...without anybody disturbing me..Zzzzzz....and then I would reach a jungle and suddenly fall in a hole...Thuddd!!....eeee I am awake ..I am awake...shit man I again dozed off in between..I kept my eyes wide open so that this would not happen again....Irritation level was increasing.."Abbe kya problem hai iski..kitna doubt hai isko..ek toh ghar pe jaane ke liye I am getting late..who is he where does he stay". But this went to deaf ears..people were really interested in this topic or may be they were just too good actors....actors...damn it ..what boring people..Suddenly I heard a voice "<span style="font-style: italic;">Excuse me ..can you just tell me what is the topic of discussion??..</span>"..AAAHHHHH !!!! my soulmate...I looked sideways to know who was this person... He was sitting like Amitabh Bachan in DON watching Helen Dance..<span style="font-style: italic;">ek dum araam se.</span>..(sorry I just can't recollect his name ..so will call him Mr A )</span><br /><a style="font-family: verdana;" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0Yk0YNoVo7A/Rf4qDSAm9EI/AAAAAAAAAAY/Qmo7NQhy-50/s1600-h/amitabh.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0Yk0YNoVo7A/Rf4qDSAm9EI/AAAAAAAAAAY/Qmo7NQhy-50/s320/amitabh.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5043514868563899458" border="0" /></a><br /></span><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_0Yk0YNoVo7A/RgAC2ApgqfI/AAAAAAAAABE/0VMtr_hzUmU/s1600-h/amitabh.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_0Yk0YNoVo7A/RgAC2ApgqfI/AAAAAAAAABE/0VMtr_hzUmU/s320/amitabh.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5044034709565254130" border="0" /></a><span style="font-size:100%;">Looks: 8 on 10<br />Attitude : 10 on 10<br /><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;">I was quite happy to have him ..(Not because of the above marks scored by him) but 'coz I was superior to him..at least I knew the topic of discussion..I said " <span style="font-style: italic;">Fraud prevention </span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">of course </span>"..</span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;">"<span style="font-style: italic;">Tch Tch that I know..what a waste of time..I would have reached home by this time..</span>"</span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;">"<span style="font-style: italic;">Ya I swear ..on the top of it I am feeling so sleepy..</span>"</span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;">He winked at me and said " <span style="font-style: italic;">Ya ya I saw that ..</span>"</span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;">" <span style="font-style: italic;">I was sleeping but still I know the topic..!!!</span>"..I snapped back </span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;">"<span style="font-style: italic;">Ohh !!

Angrily I looked over to see..what was that '</span><span style="font-style: italic;font-family:verdana;" >@#@#%% thing</span><span style="font-family:verdana;">'...and suddenly all my anger vanished away. It was my scrap book..I left aside all my work..and began to read each and every scrap my school time friends had written...reading those scraps brought a smile on my face..innocent things written..I had even pasted my class photograph in it..seriously there were 2-3 people whom I had completely forgotten . This brought back very sweet memories..my childhood days...my teachers,lunch breaks,PT classes,small small gupshup's with my friend's..Life was very sweet and simple..No hard feelings..No ego problems..Woah!!! what a life..!!</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;">I remembered those day's when my best friend and I would giggle on stupid jokes. We were bench partners. Not a single minute when we would keep quite. I still remember the first time I met her and also the first time we fought with each other. The way we patched up after the fight..it was chooo chweet !!<br />There are so many incidents with her..<br /></span><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;font-family:verdana;" >1 Incident</span><span style="font-family:verdana;"> : I and my best friend ( SP) where sitting and listening to our very borrrrrring hindi sir's kavita...</span><span style="font-style: italic;font-family:verdana;" >yawwwwwwnnn</span><span style="font-family:verdana;">...suddenly SP took out a pen and made a question mark on my hand..enraged even I made a similar thing on her hand..she tried it again ..but this time I tried to save my poor hand from her attack..she caught my hand and would not leave it..</span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;"> " </span><span style="font-style: italic;font-family:verdana;" >Kya chal raha hai yahan pe??</span><span style="font-family:verdana;">" .

Now my friend (SP) and I were quite happy about it. We started to day dream ..how we would be the first ones to reach the top ..how biology teacher would go gaga about us..now when the actual trek started..in the beginning both of us were all geared up to reach the top..but after 1 hr we both got so tired..and suddenly we got a laughter attack.. we just could not walk a step ahead..on the top of it..when half dead we reached the waterfall..I got so excited that I fell in the water on one of the seniors..a long imaginary story was later made out of this by none other than SP :)..( The story was that my bottle cork fell in the water..and the senior jumped in the water to find it for me..and she would always accompany this story with a very funny music.."</span><span style="font-style: italic;font-family:verdana;" >Lalalalala..lalalalal..lalalallal.</span><span style="font-family:verdana;">.."..don't know how many of you understood which music it was...but it is a very horrible tune..which usually you will find in older..Dimple Kapadia movie's..like sagar..eewwww )</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;font-family:verdana;" >Lastly if SP you read this blog..which I am 100 % sure I will make you read this time...how could we ever dance on that song "Hun huna re hun hun huna.."..shit and that too if you remember we would practice it outside </span><span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;font-family:verdana;" >somebody's</span><span style="font-weight: bold;font-family:verdana;" > house..who would again and again come out to see whether we were a bunch of retarded children...and how could you suggest of singing " </span><span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;font-family:verdana;" >Aaj humare dil mei ajab ye uljhan hai</span><span style="font-weight: bold;font-family:verdana;" > " song for GROUP SINGING..Thank god !!! we didn't get time for rehearsal ..otherwise audience to bura haal kar dete yaar..;)</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;font-family:verdana;" >Shucks</span><span style="font-family:verdana;"> !!..Having to write a blog on this topic has brought back so many memories that one post is not enough for it..I will have to write sequels of this nostalgia ..Part-I, Part-II ,and so on..Yaa I mean I still have to write about how I got addicted to chatting , my college friends..godd so many things..seriously I am surely going to write on this again.

Yaawwwn !!! No wonder... only a few days left for Valentine's day..these things have to happen !!!Then a sudden thought ..is love only felt by humans ?? I get my answer when I watch Laaloo playing with his kids. Ooops!!! sorry didn't introduce you to Laaloo.</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">A formal introduction won't do justice to him, so let me take you to flashback (as usual ;))</span><br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic; font-family: verdana;">Flashback </span><span style="font-family: verdana;">:</span><br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic; font-family: verdana;">Bandana</span><span style="font-family: verdana;"> tied to his head..sweat all over his face..unperturbed by the cheering going on for him...his eyes fixed towards the ball that is coming towards him...All children going crazy for him " </span><span style="font-style: italic; font-family: verdana;">Come on Laaloo you can do it !!!! come on ..</span><span style="font-family: verdana;">" ...and...and ..and ... </span><span style="font-weight: bold; font-family: verdana;">it's a catch</span><span style="font-family: verdana;">..Laaloo had done it again....Laaloo our very smart ,good looking and most eligible bachelor dog in our colony. He was good at everything. He would play with the children. Cricket was his favorite. He seemed perfectly normal ..we had never seen any signs of madness in him...till one day..when he for the first time saw </span><span style="font-style: italic; font-family: verdana;">HER</span><span style="font-family: verdana;">.</span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">It was a usual day. Everything was perfect...Laaloo busy practicing his cricket with colony children when he had a glimpse of her and for the first time in his life he missed an easy catch...and the ball landed straight on Her head ...well </span><span style="font-style: italic; font-family: verdana;">HER</span><span style="font-family: verdana;"> in this case is a bitch (Hey don't get me wrong she really was a bitch..ok for the decent ones...I will call her Laalee..though its a very </span><span style="font-style: italic; font-family: verdana;">yuck</span><span style="font-family: verdana;"> name..)Returning back to the topic....That day Laaloo's team did win the match ..but as they say in bollywood "</span><span style="font-style: italic; font-family: verdana;">per </span><span style="font-style: italic; font-family: verdana;">wo dil ki match haar gaya </span><span style="font-family: verdana;">"..(I luvv that dialogue wonder who invented this line)</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">For us she seemed like yet another bitch..but for Laaloo calling her ordinary would have been calling </span><span style="font-style: italic; font-family: verdana;">Taj Mahal a pretty nifty tomb</span><span style="font-family: verdana;">!!! He had made up his mind..and one thing was clear for him now, that life would be a pretty poor affair if he did not get to see her again. So everyday he would wait for her to pass that road. No idea about her feelings..but wise men say..she was pretty famous in her dog community !!!..why the hell would she be interested in him..but Laaloo was adamant. He would try to gain attention from her by bringing left over food for her ,mutton from butcher shop...etc etc.. I think even she had begun to like him..but would never speak out. But hell broke loose when one day Laaloo decided to follow her home. For ignorant people, each dog has its own area..and dogs dont like stranger dogs encroaching into their area. That day Laaloo had broken a law...following Laalee he had entered a different area.Suddenly Laaloo was stopped by the gunda and dada dog's (oblivious to this Laalee had reached home ). Laaloo could have run away..but he didn't..he stood there like a rock.. ready to face anything for Laalee!!! The result was terrible , they ripped his skin off...he was in a terrible condition..and landed straight in ICU. That day all colony children,adults ..everybody was present there to give him emotional and financial support. When Laalee came to know this she came running towards the hospital.

I had liked the songs alright but had never paid much attention to the meaning of the songs. Each and every line has got so much depth!!! </span><span style="font-family:verdana;">I realized it just yesterday when I was day dreaming and listening to the songs on radio. I have heard the " <span style="font-style: italic;">Ya Ali</span> " song more than thousand times, but it was yesterday I understood what it actually means. My favorite santaza :</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;">'<span style="font-style: italic;">Bina tere na ek pal ho,</span></span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;font-family:verdana;" >Na bin tere kabhi kal ho,</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;font-family:verdana;" >Yeh dil ban jaaye patthar ka,</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;font-family:verdana;" >na isme koi hulchul ho</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;font-family:verdana;" >Sanam Pe Haan, Ishq pe haan,</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;font-family:verdana;" >luta doon, mita doon,</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;font-family:verdana;" >main apni khudi'</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;">Loosely translated:</span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;">" Let there not be a single moment without you, nor should tomorrow ever arrive without you.

One favourite ghazal of mine is:</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;">" <span style="font-style: italic;">Pyaar ka pehla khat likhne mei waqt toh lagta hai</span></span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;font-family:verdana;" >Naye parinde ko udne mei waqt toh lagta hai</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;font-family:verdana;" > Pyaar ka pehla khat likhne mei waqt toh lagta hai..</span><br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic;font-family:verdana;" >Jism ki baat nahi thi unke dil tak jaana tha</span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;"><span style="font-style: italic;">Lambi doori tey karne mei waqt toh lagta hai..</span>"</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;">Waah kya baat hai...Jagjitji tusi toh chaa gaye ho<br /><br />and not forgetting Elvis bhai<br /><br />"<span style="font-style: italic;">Wise men say only fools rush in</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">But I cant help falling in love with you</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Shall I say or</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Would it be a sin</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">If I cant help falling in love with you"<br /><br /></span><span>There are so many songs which have had an impact on me..who can forget the songs of</span><span style="font-style: italic;"><br /></span></span><ul><li><span style="font-family:verdana;"><span><span style="font-weight: bold;">Maine pyaar kiya.</span></span><span style="font-style: italic;">.."Aate jaate " and " Aaja shaam hone aayi"<br /></span></span></li><li><span style="font-family:verdana;"><span><span style="font-weight: bold;">Sadma</span></span><span style="font-style: italic;">..

Naah!! Not another Saas Bahu serial...no no..no sports channel for me...and then I came across a very flickering and unclear channel..Well no points for guessing..yes it was Doordarshan . They were broadcasting a short interview of Nirja Guleri .<br />"<span style="font-style: italic;">Nirja Guleri...Guleri ..I have heard about him . Does he come in my bank...well no ..ohhh Nirja Guleri !!!!!!"</span><br /><br /><i>Flasback:</i><br /><br />Don't remember perfectly but I think I was in the third or fifth std and I remember our only lifeline was Doordarshan and DD Metro.I would wait desperately for sundays to come.<br />At sharp 9 am the sweet music would float in my Hall.<br /><br /><i>Chandrakanta ki kahani </i><br /><i>ye mana hai purani..</i><br /><i>ye purani hokar bhi </i><br /><i>badi lagti hain suhani</i><br /><i>naugaaaaaaaad vijaaaygaaaad ka raaaj kumaaaar..chandrakanta se karta thaaa pyaaaar..(2)</i><br /><i>BLAH BLAH BLAH...<br /><br /></i>Wow!!! I loved Sundays soooo much. Every sunday would be like a picnic. We had a TV serial time table .<br />9 am : Chandrakanta<br />10 am : Duck Tales<br />11 am : Talespin<br />12 pm : Fun Time...etc etc<br /><br />All my friends and I would assemble at one place to watch <i>yet another romanchak</i> episode of<br />" <span style="font-style: italic;">Chandrakanta</span>". The world that was depicted in that serial was just so fascinating .I was greatful to Nirja Guleri for making this serial ( Director or Producer of that serial ..I mean I am not sure..but who cares ) .<br />For those who have no idea what I am talking about...well I speaka Englis and' if ya still don understan lemme tell ya :</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style=";font-family:Verdana;font-size:100%;" ><br /></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style=";font-family:Verdana;font-size:100%;" >This serial was about Princess Chandrakanta of Vijaygad and Prince VirendraSingh<br />of Naugad . Both are in luuvvv. But there is our dushman zamaana. Both these kingdoms are big rivals of each other ( Due to some unknown reason ..now you don't expect me to remember these details do you ?? ). Now Chandrakanta has a very cruel minded minister ..Mr Krur singh . He wishes to marry her but then his wish remains merely a wish ..Why??...'coz Chandrakanta loves VirendraSingh ..stupid..(I see not' attentive in class..!!!)...So our Krur singh decides to go to the neighboring kingdom and join hands with another rival Mr Shivdutt. Shivdutt is another very interesting character in this serial . He, my good friends is not a normal human being or should I say he is not a homosapien...but an aiyyar..( A person who can convert into other animals..hmmm very dangerous ) and he has poison in his blood !!!!! Can you believe that ?? But childhood is such a sweet stage in one's life. You just don't have the brains as to what is good for you and what is ..well stupid...!!<br />We would all go numb each time Shivdutt would throw his new wife out of the castle window and make a snake bite him ( He has poison in his body toh due to some unknown reason he has to do that every day and is helped by his Ex -Flame Vishkanya in that ).Everytime this would happen it would arouse innocent questions in innocent minds..(who had nothing to do ...I don't understand why I would waste my energy in understanding these logics instead of breaking my head in understanding logics of maths or science..)<br /><br />First Bacha :<i>Hey why does he do that ??</i><br />Second Bacha: <i>Tha bitch asked him to do that !!!</i><br />Darpok Bacha :<i>Ohh !!! this Vishkanya ..God is watching everything..she will never have peace in her life.</i><br /><br />Hmm innocent minds...but not all were innocent ..<br />Any romantic scene would eco giggles in the room..tee hee ..I didnt watch that.. what happened..??<br />Hey I have my eyes closed..how do you expect me to watch ??..but nothing much happened. He was about to tee heee.. kiss her...but ... but then he only hugged her.<br /><br />Even Krur singh had become quite famous..he had become a role model for all small rowdy boys ..a beautiful girl in the street and suddenly you would hear " Yakoooooooo "..or " YAkooooo Pitaaajiiiii "...This dialogue of Yakoo Singh had become more popular than our great shakti kapoors " Maaammaa AAAAOOOOOO"<br />And now for those who have started to complain that this post seems to be a mini episode of Chandrakanta..<b>"EXCUSE ME..BUT HAVE YOU READ THE TOPIC...IT SAYS</b>.."<i>Chandrakanta : The Swashbuckling Fare</i> "...that means ..it won't have anything related to your favourite serial "<i>Shaktimaan </i>" or may be " <i>Raja and Rancho</i>"..(but must confess the monkey is quite brilliant in that...though I don't remember whether he was Raja or Rancho ..:p)<br /><br />Ok back to the topic...no don't get scared I am ending my post in Chandrakanta Eeeestyle...<br /><br />tatatatamnnnnn...."

Why else will a old man of his age (100 or may be 110 yrs old ..) come to bank for small small things. I even overheard him telling her how his wife was planning to give him a divorce..hmmmmmmm dont know what's cooking..but as Taj iyer said I shouldn't put my nose into his personal matters....per kya karein control nahi hota..;) .</span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;">There was a long discussion between Mamo and Taj followed by false commitments from her to him, and suddenly from no where he again came to me.</span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;">" </span></span><span style="font-style: italic;font-family:verdana;font-size:100%;" >See you said this cannot be done..Mamoji says this will be done..and tomorrow my 100 fds will be made</span><span style="font-size:100%;"><span style="font-family:verdana;"> "</span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;">Damn it ..who is going to do that..I tried to explain it to him.."Tomorrow!!..there are 100 fds..it will take atleast 3 days".</span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;">"</span></span><span style="font-style: italic;font-family:verdana;font-size:100%;" >You know what I think you are trying to be the BM of this branch...but let me tell you some thing <span style="font-weight: bold;">..U ARE NOT MAMOJI</span></span><span style="font-size:100%;"><span style="font-family:verdana;"> ".</span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;">Shit !!! did he really think I was trying to be Mamo Rani......why would I try that..I am not ugly , I am not disfigured, I don't have a bad dressing sense ( Multi color shirt and cheap cargo pants..having 6 pockets in office!!!) . Pissing me off , he went away from the bank. I went to my BM thinking she would help me, but I was wrong .She acted as if she was not responsible for anything..as if Taj was my personal issue. Usually I am a very patient person , hardly get angry..but that day even I came to know my limits ; Taj Iyer had easily played with my emotions. One of my colleagues came to me and asked " </span></span><span style="font-style: italic;font-family:verdana;font-size:100%;" >you look sad..are you ok </span><span style="font-size:100%;"><span style="font-family:verdana;">". I tried to answer but don't know what happened , a sudden leakage started from my eyes and before I knew the leakage had started from my nose also..and I was quite relieved that I had a hanky with me ( which i usually forget at home ). It was very embarrassing for me , I tried to control my emotions but the result was bad... I was smiling and crying at the same time. I can never forget that day!!!!!!</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;">The next day he came again and went directly to Mamo Madam , the fd was not made yet (because it really takes 3 days for that to get activated). Then he came to me and for the first time he was smiling ..he said " Dimble you were right , the FD cannot be made in 1 day , today even your boss said the same thing..she doe not know anything...she changes her answer everytime...dont know who made her the BM...This Mammo Rani or Shabbo Rani ..or what ever is her name was saying it will be made after 3 days..she should have told this yesterday only ..I dont have energy to come here every day.From now on I will approach you only , she does not know anything ".</span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;">I pinched myself to check whether this was a dream .</span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;">owwww!!!!...guess I pinched too hard. It was reality ..yeepeeeee!!!! ..I was so happy and surprised .Come on he wasn't that bad afterall. A grandfather like figure. :)</span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;">I saw my BM peeping from her workplace and once Taj was gone , she began interrogating me</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;">BM : </span></span><span style="font-style: italic;font-family:verdana;font-size:100%;" >what did he say ..was he talking about me</span><span style="font-size:100%;"><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;">Me : </span></span><span style="font-style: italic;font-family:verdana;font-size:100%;" >errr ..no just a thing here and there</span><span style="font-size:100%;"><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;">I didnt have the heart to tell her that her only fan was now no longer her admirer.</span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;">I was too happy that atlast the nightmare was over , atlast Mr Taj was my friend .</span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;">Wednesday morning ,</span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;">" </span></span><span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;font-family:verdana;font-size:100%;" >Dimble..Dimble my name is not written on the FD certificate...do you have anything against me????????? </span><span style="font-size:100%;"><span style="font-family:verdana;">"</span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;">Return of Mr Taj Iyer....Here I go again...</span></span>Dimplehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01042059348853167284noreply@blogger.com5
