A short in the Arm

 
Disclaimer : This one is going to be a poorly edited post, with lots of issues mixed & shaken irresponsibely. You are hence requested/expected to understand the feelings only! 
 
It's been almost three years since I completed my engineering studies, *phew* three years have passed!!! 
Anyway , in these three years , atleast six of my batchmates have announced their wedding dates , and many more must be right in the middle of the 'Tere papa se kab baat karun ?' discussions . Now , I have always been terribly confused by the concept of marriage . Sometimes marriage  looks like being wonderful union which ushers in a beautiful life of companionship , sharing sorrows and celebrating life . And before a hungry somalian dacoit can  clean a small boat , marriage will appear to be this expensive ticket to an existence featuring soiled diapers , worrying about kids and their SST test syllabus . So just like dye structures and ram gopal verma's movies , marriage has always confused me .
 
The confusion was taken to new levels, when i attended a marriage which i can call to be of closest relative I can attend, or in other (truthful) word swho called me on his marriage.....
 
Personally, I enjoy marriages a lot, there is a lot of food, new clothes n its always away from work place, but still life is not just a box of sweets, it comes with tiffin full of lotus stem vegetable. The worst part being, the granny & her gang of villian kind os aunties, who would pop out of her sofa n yell
“Dekhti hu iss baar kaise bachte ho ”.*echo echo echo *.her tone becomes vicious when she announces the name….

*drums beating interspersed with some shamshaan ghaat music *(don’t ask me what it is)
 
 
its so scary that even K waali vamp would prefer hiding away like rabri Devi would, when asked about the update of Spanish premier league or Pamela Anderson, the last scam which CM of Jharkand was involved in!
 
Taking a break & before moving to next part, a close look at ideal dulha:
I told you, its poorly edited
The US return hero who hasn’t forgotten his bhagwaan inspite of numerous night outs in posh pubs, guzzling beer from the barrel and holding life-time memberships of famous strip clubs…he is still an ‘apna desi Indian ladkaa’… A perfect dulha material…
 
News Update:
In between, the great valentine's day pissed...oops passed off, without a whisper in my ear, but more than any whisper, i was more excited about Muthale buddy's pink chuddy. i infact frighetened a few honhaar baccha friends of mine that I have joined SRS(Sri Ram SenE) & dare you try n have a good time with your loved ones,  & I will do what MCD did with commercial properties in residential areas, but they would rather believe in George Clooney is made to sit through a screening of "Basanti Ka Inteqaam" ( Starring Chamkeeli Haseena in a never seen before , and never seen after dynamite role ) .....*sigh* a well tried effort in vain n V-Day pissed off.....again!!
 
The D day on V day:
The day which witnessed around 36,000 knots being tied alone in Delhi, I was in Punjab attending one such wedding. I was a member of a extremely chaotic and jubilant baraat inching towards the venue (some rated hotel). The baraat swarmed....
(No more baraat description, this blog is about mann kee feelings!!!)
 
The War-mala event actaully reminds me of a RajnikantH dialogue "Kasam paidaa karne waale ki Raja aajtak sirf do logo ke aage jhuktaa aaya hai ek to uparwaala jo kismat banaata hai aur ek naai jo hazaamat banaata hai..huhh!!" Sorry dude, you are wrong, I have seen a young smart guys JHUKTE over for something else....
 
A lot more to come in coming posts, but one question still boggles down my mind.....
 Is marriage  an ushering in a wonderful life of companionship , sharing sorrows and celebrating life ...or is it an expensive ticket to an existence featuring soiled diapers , worrying about kids and their SST test syllabus ?

InshahAllah, the marriage was overjoyed, except for these thoughts & I expect a few more people to treat me the same way in their respective marriages.

Also, the subject has nothing to do with Post....India TV inspired me to do this.

Whats going on!

Before UNESCO declares this blog a "A World heritage site" and Japanese tourists wearing red caps and yellow shorts go crazy with their Fujifilm cameras clicking the Sameer-Priya, july 29(reliance mobile ki ad yaad karo) epic's manuscript, I puke one more post here.

So here I am ranting like any other "work-life" balance ke maare bhaailog. Being so wella that you strive hard to type anything, forces me to come up with this post. I hope some typing here balances my non-typing schedule at office.

Good lord, shooting a million juicy forwards (the "be very careful before opening" types, which you inspect when everybody thinks everybody around has gone for lunch, and they all watch it :P) to my kameene dost from my gmail inbox, Checking all those zindadil (who do not lock their albums) people's orkut photo albums every five minutes (bole to ekdum fasst. orkut updates se bhi pehle) , the kind of dudes and dudiyaas whose response to any problem or even a minor glitch in their smooth course of life is "Iski M@@ ki". I have started forwarding mails with subject "This Blue Pill can help you have a long fiesta with your chicks”, with the tag of hey this is for you.

The cricinfo page sits minimized in hidden taskbars on the office ka desktop. Even a faint badboo of the boss instigates to uninstall gtalk and messenger at the same time. And ask "Solitaire kya hota hai" reply comes : "JK tyre ki mehnat". Bade bhole bhaale log hai hum!! ;)


Over all life is good, as good as that of ball boy in a Maria Sharapova-Anna Kournikova match with Salma Hayek as Chair umpire.

News & Me:
India wins three medals at Olympics:
This is once in lifetime news & the feeling is as proud as one of those lucky fellows who get to see Haley’s comet.

Home Minister visits Serial blasts’ site in Delhi, Ahmedabad Bangalore:
What will he do there? Or he is thinking that hat the terrorists would be still hiding behind bushes over there and the minister would just point out and shout - "Wo dekha , wo raha Mohhamad Al Sami !! Wo dekho amrood ki Jhaadi ke peeche baitha hai bandook pakde !! Pakad lo kambaqth ko !! & in between please make sure that my next shirt is ready for the press interview”

Festivals of National importance-Part 1

Heppy Fraandsheep day to aal of you barring a few (arey kyuki Valentine's day ka bhi tyohaar aane waala hai). Friendship day is the foundation for the house to be built whose housewarming is scheduled six months later on the valentine's day and subsequent "hum 2 se 3 ho gaye moment" 9 months later on the children's day.

Must say that we have really managed the national festivals of lovwwvwvwee & friendship with great care, such that within six months of friendship day, we have valentine’s day & exactly months after we have Children’s day. And as they say in the west "Happy friendship day, your place or mine?". Hum to phir bhi bahut peeche hai.

Take this…………….

"hello..hello unty ji Jyoti ghar par hai !!"

"kaun??"

"Jee mai uska classmate Sonu bol raha hu..aunty mujhe Jyoti ko 'haippee fraandship day' wish karna tha"

"Accha achaa tum wahee Sonu ho jisne last year bhi friendship day ke din phone kiya tha?"

"haan aunty mai wahee (Abhaga) Sonu hoon"

"Beta lagta hai iss ek saal me tum kuch khaas progress nahee kar paaye, abhi tak sirf friendship ke liye hi fight maar rahe ho"

"Haan aunty *sighs* beech me Valentine's day bhi nikal gaya, lekin afsos"

"Dhyaan se beta, Raakhi bhi paas hi hai..kahee kuch apshagun naa ho jaaye"

"jarur jarur"

This is not me disguised as Sonu….mind ittt!!!!

Ab aagey….

The irony is, your best of friends will never call you or message you on this day except for those assholes who vanished from your social radar completely after college. And then on one fine friendship day they suddenly blip on your cell phone's inbox. if suppose you call them up (condition holds only if the long lost friend is remotely feminine) and ask their whereabouts they take a deep breath and say "Ab kya bataau yaar.....maar rakhi hai".

Anyways, the concept of this very day, which the movie "kuch kuch hota hai" gave birth in to the minds of the youth (opportunist cum frustrated bavaayez), gives every frustoo like me a chance to break the ice-berg between any closest good looking object of the opposite sex.


EXCLUSIVE COVERAGE

The news channels are no less. I’ve got this confidential news that Aaj tak has signed an MoU with Aspirin. (I am waiting for any channel which signs it with Viagra haah!!).Just have a look at an instance of the prime time news bulletin on Aaj tak on this (inter)national festival of fraandship

Sanjay: "Aaiye hum aap ko le chalte hai vishvidyalay jahan humaare samvaad daata deepak chaurasia maujood hai"

" haa deepak kyaa aap hamey sun sakte hai"

(Deepak is on screen and he is as blank as laloo's 10th board answer sheet)

"Deepak aapko humaaree awaaz aa rahee hai...deepak"

Deepak : "...haa sanjay boliye"

(People behind Deepak desperate to come on TV are waving as if stranded on an island for ten years and trying to signal a far off ship in sight)

"Deepak iss wakt wahaa fraandseep day ki kaaafi gehma gehmi hogi.kyaa mahaul hai iss wakt wahaa par??"

“Sanjay jaisaa ki hum sab ko pataa hai.aaj fraandseep day hai, to aaj yahaan diwali jaisa mahul hai…ladke naye naye kapde pehen kar motorcyclon pe chakker kaat rahe hain


TURRRRRRRRRRRRRR !!!!!! a scooter passes by and deepak is interrupted…

With renewed energy he speaks up

”Apko bataa du ki iss baar chaman chaiwale ne isspecial chocolates evam mithayion ka prabandh kiya hai aur sajaawat ke liye 5 kilo phool bhi mangaaye gaye hai aur gaur karne waali baat ye hai ki phool bilkul Phreshh hai…special pandaal lagaaye gayein hai…..pandaal banaane me kaamdhenu sariyaa(iron rods) istemaal kiya gaya hai”

Then suddenly the camera shifts to Sanjay in the studio when he comes to know of the fact that he is on-air and he has nothing to speak and Deepak on the other side is…….. Sanjay is speechless and his face is like as if he has pissed in his pants.

Deepak : “…..aapko bata dein ki twinke beauty parlour pe aaj facial ke liye line lagi hui hai, ek ladki jo abhi wahaan se facial kara ke aayi hai…...chaliye unse hi poochhte hai ki wo kaisaa mehsoos kar rahee hai”


Deepak: “devi ji .bataaiye aap facial karaakar kaisaa mehsus kar rahee hai??”

Deepak trying to shove the microphone up her nostrils.

” bataaiye … bataaiye…… bataaiye….” deepak struggling.



And immediately the telecast is switched to the studio cameras and Sanjay sitting there says in a hurried tone.

“Chaliye ab chalte hai Raakhi saawant ke paas jo ye maang kar rahee hai ki item numbers ka bhi oscar nomination honaa chahiye..”


"Ab kya bataau yaar.....maar rakhi hai"
