201 : TOW The Puncture.....

201 : TOW The Puncture.....

There are many things happening around me that i could have written about in my blog regularly.... but being derived from the base class 'LAZY', there isn't a data member 'm_ExtraWork' in my class.....That kept me away from blogging for almost a year....
What then prompted me to override 'void Relax()' with 'void Blog()'???It was this exceptionally funny incident that took place yesterday, 23rd August, involving Vishal.
On Sat. 23rd Aug, me n Vishal started at 7.00 am towards Kothrud, to play cricket with office colleagues.... As we were passing the new stadium for the Commonwealth Youth Games (CYG) on the highway, Vishal's bike got punctured....I got off and Vishal decided to return and get Minal's Scooty. As I waited, Vishal called me and said he had found a tyre repair shop not far from where we were, and was getting the puncture removed. Since I was getting bored, I decided to go there myself....




Upon going there, Vishal told me about the most funniest misunderstandings and misinterpretations you could hear.... The following is the actual conversation between Vishal and the puncture-repair man, as narrated by Vishal....

Puncture Man: Sahab, khila hai tyre main, tube poora gaya..badli karna padega..
Vishal: OK. Theek hai... Naya daal do..lekin accha wala tube daalna..... MRF ka hai naa???
Puncture Man: Sahab, accha hai...lekin MRF ka nahi hai....
Vishal: To kya aisa hi koi local hai kya??
Puncture Man: Nahi sahab, global hai.....
Vishal: ??#$%#$:?>":>$$(Thinking....bloody, this road-side puncture-wala...where the hell did he get this vocabulary from.....Maybe the upcoming CYG and his shop's close proximity to the stadium has encouraged the tyre-shop man to learn english....No wonder he is familiar with terms like local, global....etc...hmmmm......)
Vishal: Theek hai..daal do....

Then, out came the tyre man with the replacement tube......The picture says it all...


When Vishal saw that...he almost fell on the ground with laughter.....And when he told me about it, I started laughing like crazy, and decided immediately that this incident is worth writing about....I clicked a few snaps and after everything was done with the tyre, we resumed on our way to play cricket....
We played for a long time and enjoyed ourselves a lot....but the highlight of the day remained the knowledgeable tyre-wala.....

Andaz Apna Apna......

Perhaps the best comedy movie ever made in Bollywood would be Andaz Apna Apna...It is my favourite movie, and I cannot get bored of watching it ever. I have watched the movie more than 70 times atleast. But each time, the movie seems equally hilarious and entertaining...Yeah, u can call it obsession... i dont care... One of the aspects of the movie is the Overacting of the actors. Everything is shown extravagant. This virtue makes the movie even more funnier. I think the director just explained the shot to the actors, and let them perform it according to their own will... this is clearly evident in the totally natural and free flowing humor and presentation of the same. Aamir Khan's 'Aila' and Salman's 'Ooi Maa' are truly clowning. The characters are also interesting. Robert with his peculiar 'Galati se mistake ho gaya' and Bhalla with his ever sinister 'Pilaan' add to the humor coefficient. Paresh Rawal with a double role is twice as good. Sh...

104 - TOW The Workaholic Me Well, the title to the post (and also my orkut display name) is justified by the fact that i posting here after a gap of more than 1 month.... In my last post, i mentioned my schedule.....well, soon after i posted it, my timetable went for a toss...training began to get extended, tests started becoming exceedingly tough.....no gym, swimming pool seemed non-existent and tennis was out of question.... My primary goal was redefined....going back to the basics....FOOD, CLOTHING AND SHELTER.... If this goes on, pretty soon i mite end up like this.... I made it a point to hv a heavy breakfast, coz lunch time was as fickle as the Indian cricket team's form....1.30...2...2.30....sumtimes no lunch at all...just a sandwich....I even had tough time finding some moments to grab a cup of coffee(yes...even though its free, i didnt drink much...)...and dinner was just like a midnight snack.... Here, I can't resist quoting a dialog from Andaz Apna Apna..... "A...
