Peepal Tree

June 26, 2008 at 2:20 am (myself)

Rain

1:30pm.I was driving through Akbar Road.It started raining all of a sudden.I parked my bike beside the road and rushed towards a Peepal tree for shelter.I could smell the wet mud’s effuvium.The City witnessed its first heavy downpour.

Alas!a girl clad in white salwaar kameez carrying a black purse was hurrying towards me.She stood beside me.I made my mind,I should start. “Baarish Tez hai !” ,I remarked.She smiled back(I bet that smile would make hundreds ‘go bananas’). “Whats the time “? I asked .She showed a “V” sign made out of her index and middle finger meaning 2PM.My cellphone rang.I was in no mood to attend it for two reasons:

(1)My cellphone wasn’t water resistant.

(2)The girl.

Kaise main kahoon tujhse..Rehna hai tere dil mein..” was my ringtone which kept on ringing.I imagined both of us amidst a movie/song sequence of RHTDM.Her hair was drenched with water.I loved it when she fondled them and turned them backwards.She looked like an enchantress in white and the transparency(thanks to the rain) added to the increasing glitz.Heavy winds accompanied rain,water started pouring towards us.She took a step back,slipped and was in my arms.Cellphone rang again Kaise main kahoon tujhse..Rehna hai tere dil mein..“.The scene lasted 5 seconds until i whispered “Sorry”.

We were silent for the next 10 minutes.I spotted her purse which accidently fell before the “arms-scene”.As soon as the pouring ceased,she glimpsed at me and pointed towards her purse.This implied that i should pick it up and hand it over to her.I turned back,leaped a few steps and heard the dark clouds roar.I rotated back to see if she was alright.She was gone.I hurried back to the place where we stood.I was astounded.I turned around for the purse.It was gone.

7PM.I was surfing the news channels.A newsreader said “The state experienced its first downpour.Finally good news for farmers.Everyone seems to enjoy the season.Meanwhile Villagers have their superstitions flowing.One of them remarked ‘Beware of Peepal trees,spirits are often predicted during rains’”.

I checked my cellphone’s “Missed Calls” record.There wasn’t a single call since morning.

IIT-K{Techkriti ‘08} Memoirs-Part 1

June 10, 2008 at 12:40 am (myself)

It was 15th feb (post Valentine’s Day).We were finished with our “Rocketrix” event in the afternoon.Open Theater was scheduled tonight in the chilling weather at 12 AM.”The Prestige” was to be aired starring Hugh Jackman and Christian Bale.Our unit of eight guys,after completing the dinner reached SAC building where the screen was put up inside a small ground.Me,Abhishek,Raza and Yadav watched the movie a week back at Yadav’s place.It was midnight and the movie rolled.

I turned my eyeballs to the sides observing that each boy was accompanied by the opposite sex(GFs).Some even bought shawls wrapping themselves inside it.My crazy mind simply thought of “Foreplay” going on inside.

While Raza was keen to watch the movie Abhishek,Yadav and me were determined to leave.Reasons:

1.We watched the movie before

2.We were still single.

Yadav cooked up an alibi saying that he left his cell phone in Abhishek’s bag and cryptically made impressions to both of us to leave.We left SAC.

Before the festival started,we heard rumours/truths that couples are usually seen sitting and smooching in a corner/beside a tree/empty classrooms.We rushed to our hall and grabbed Piyush’s(1st yr Junie) Video camera.Piyush was asleep fantasizing his Dreamy Girl.The trio moved outside the hall and scooted towards HALL 8.

In no time,we reached our destination until we halted.I saw a couple smooching behind the “Generator House”(to be exact under a tree beside the house).Hunters were ready to prowl.I walked slowly towards(behind) them.I indicated to Abhishek and Yadav to come as i found a small concrete wall.Yadav opened the lens cover.Abhishek said “LIGHTS CAMERA ACTION”….

The first word that Abhishek uttered didn’t quite suit the situation as it was completely dark.But the other two did.We started filming them.Oh man,we did it for the first time.The three were in a state of high alert.The couple got locked in passionate love making.He started with the cheeks,nose,eyes and followed it with a series of smooches in the vicinity of her lips.The Recording time flashed 18 mins.All of a sudden,a “Summer of ‘69″ tune was heard.Oh Fuck..it was my cell phone flashing a SMS by Ankit.It read a terse “Kutton kahan ho ?”.The guy abruptly turned back in suspicion that something was fishy.We hid ourselves behind the wall.The tense moments lasted 5 mins and the couple were back on track.Thay started it again,so did our camera.I could notice the boy’s hand sliding down her neck.Wow,we hallucinated us being there.Another 10 mins they were done.They moved apace towards the road connecting the SAC building.We recorded 39 mins which included 5 mins of blackout(Ankit’s SMS).

We had a cup of coffee until we reverted back to SAC.The movie was in its last peg.Half an hour passed,it ended.Our excitement had no bounds.Everyone was feeling dozy.We had another round of coffee until we snoozed.The next morning we showed the Video to everybody.Each had its own Ooooohs and Aaaahs.Janmejay said”Saale mujhe bhi bula liya hota“.We laughed.

No Smoking!

April 5, 2008 at 11:43 pm (Problems)

Smoking

Smoking still remains one of the leading cause of preventable death. Smoking has the dubious distinction of affecting all the systems from head to foot.

Following are some of the ways to Quit Smoking:

(1)If you want to cut down on your smoking gradually, try to: switch brands to one you find distasteful; smoke only half of each cigarette; smoke without inhaling; buy cigarettes by the pack, not the carton; hide your cigarettes in an inconvenient place; keep a smoking “record” of when you smoke and why, and try to eliminate the least important cigarettes.

(2)Once you’ve started to cut down, set a daily quota and reduce the number of cigarettes you smoke each day; increase your exercise; postpone your cigarette until you can go all day without one; smoke only in uncomfortable places; spend time where smoking is prohibited; do things that occupy your hands.

(3)Throw out your cigarettes, lighters, matches and ashtrays. Find someone to quit with you. To reinforce your decision, have your teeth cleaned; begin an exercise program; estimate how much money you will save.

Saawariya…

November 10, 2007 at 4:44 pm (bollywood, entertainment)

saawariya_2137.jpg

The promos were awesome,original….the movie could not have expected a more grand opening than this…

Last Friday ,i saw the movie(2nd show)…

POSITIVES:

(1)Ranbir Kapoor was simply gr8…i mean i find him the only actor who can touch the heights as attained by Hrithik -Shahrukh .His acting was commendable as a debutant.His dancing skills were gud….and the “towel” scene brings smiles to all faces whoever watches the movie…..Throughout the movie …ppl just have no doubts comparing his persona with “Raj Kapoor“….

(2)Location,sets was unbelievable…..i think the last movie which i saw with this kinda sets was “HARRY POTTER”….The lakes,bridge,walls etc….everything was beutifully shown….

(3)Music…..

The title song was amazing….although all of ‘em are slow number soothing ur hearts….but they are a bit boring towards the end…

The scene to watch out is the “Bar Scene“…..when Ranbir sings a song for Sonam…

NEGATIVES:

(1)Story not impressive….

(2)Not a paisavasool movie….IS teh movie is a hit —-that totally depends on ur taste….

Go for the movie…..Agar pyaar kiya hai to u ll surely enjoy the movie(Thats the bottomline)

Well athis is wat ….Renowned critic “Nikhat Kazmi” said….

“Go for it when you are in a rhapsodic mood and you might just rave about it. But if you’re looking for fun, Saawariya isn’t the answer. “

India Clinch T 20 World Cup!!

September 28, 2007 at 8:18 am (cricket)

icc21.jpgicc61.jpgicc.jpgicc31.jpg

An inspired bowling+batting performance by India saw them clinch the first T20 World Cup against arch rivals Pakistan in one of the most exciting finals of a major trophy ever.

It is mandatory to remember that both teams had limped out of the ICC world cup this year.Both teams were lead by young guns.Both the teams played with true spirit,as expected it turned out to be a thriller with the match ending up in the last over.Winning the toss india decided to bat,fightiong all odds,Gautam Gambhir made a stylish 75 on a pitch where  180 was being assured.But India made 157 ,thanks to Rohit Sharma’s cameo knock of 30 runs.

When pakistan came to bat,they lost wickets at regular intervals.R P Singh and Pathan demolished the top and the middle order.But some excellent batting by Misbah  gave pak  a chance to bounce back.Last over saw Joginder Sharma being given the ball.they needed 12 off it.Misbah hit a  six,but unfortunately got out ,and then came the moment of a lifetime for the indian team!!

In the end a successful championship got the match it deserved, and the winners it deserved, and most importantly perhaps, for world cricket, that winner was not Australia.

 Yipee woooooohhh!!

September 13, 2007 at 1:36 pm (cricket, sports)

iccworldtwenty20worldcuplogobg.jpg

This a new form of cricket introduced recently, an obvious treat for the spectators.Players like Shahid Afridi,Sanath Jayasuriya,M S Dhoni,Gayle,Symonds etc…relish this kinda play!!…..

Principle:Murder the bowlers…score runs…n runs….n runs.!! :-)

The  bowlers become innocent victims…only reason why gr8 bowlers opted out of this tournament!!

A 20 overs apiece match!!The crowd loves this…u can expect a score of over 250 or more..A turnover is expected this time also..

Predictions:

(1)Hope the Aussies don’t win it thsi time.

(2)May India,which is I think banking on M S Dhoni n Yuvraj emerge as champs….

(3)They have their 1st match today…BEST OF LUCK.

(4)Sehwag will fire this season!!

(5)Kiwis can win!!

Hope for the best!

Rohit…..Arrivederci!!!
