Gaand mein danda

Have you ever been part of a gang? Not the mafia… no to naxalites… bye bye ulfa…just your friends… your regulars…

If you ever have been then will understand …

What do they jaw-exercise on when they hang out? Well, not the one I am doing is fit for answering that but try to give my best shot. The topics range from ant’s wink to getting laid on mars. Of all, Mean of the topic-probability density curve, packet-pumping is my darling. I have done PhD on that. I am the best. Am I? Let’s see…

What is this packet-pumping? – It’s a branch of human science where people in tune with the rest all choose & make their victims surrender for a laughing-horse-ride until targeted.

Confused? Ok, in simple terms you make him / her (looser…) do unpant-doggie stuff.

Though this science has not got its due, which one day will, for unknown reasons - has lot to offer – shit-makes-sense feeling – I-am-the-best feeling – sucking-rocks feeling – size-does-matter feeling lot like that.

What are the social benefits of it? – Waste-management…

Who does it best? Us …

Why?
Ask me, for that matter any of my friends, who does it all the time in the gatherings – get this right away – if true to you - winning over others wit and charm gives fun – ugly brother-ego gets food. It seems as if our prime-motive is to pull everybody down and handstand on them. It’s a non-stop masti for all but the center.
Let me introduce the main character first – we call him the center, bakara – there are many names though. Every gang has one I guess.
But for the center it is mayhem. The best part of it is no one knows in advance who the next “bakara” will be. You get to see the gravity-defying table turners – who give poor politicians run for their money.


Cut the crap…

I really don’t understand the inherent motive of a person who gets that jubilation by making others pose for a kick-his-balls look. Have we become so blind that we can’t see our friend’s suffering? Why is it eating so much of our invaluable time? Why?

Why me?

I think it’s my birth right. I have it in my blood I guess. Can’t help but… Kaating...

When I hated ...

At my grand parent’s house when we all gather at one place time just stalls, laughs cry for a break, all sort of discussions – my grand mother always tells me how I cried when I was born non stop till my mom took me in her arms – times when I fell from the top of the stairs – my mischievous deeds – throwing whatever I see into the well - eating whatever I hold – times of my tryst at stealing the mangoes in the backyard acts of lord Krishna she adds proudly with a twinkle in her eyes - gone are those days I said to myself picking up the Hindu dated 18th Apr 2007. Pause…

No point in wearing the perception I was wearing I thought. If you see what I see, would go through the same … TRUTH …
The mankind’s greatest fear is TO COME FACE TO FACE WITH THE TRUTH. Every human being fears it. Indeed our greatest responsibility lies in hiding it from us. You know what, every time I ask myself what is it that makes you the happiest person on earth? I don’t even have to finish - comes the reply - How best one can stay devoid of the day-to-day happenings makes him/her that happier a person. After all who would like to put their naked bones to the display? I really don’t know how many of you reading this felt like that or gave it a thought, what’s the big deal, but how many would make their hands count is what makes the difference?

If words can change the world, for that matter a person, I would not be doing what you were reading.
That very moment I hated that I was merely trying to blame what ever I come across rather than finding the real cause. Or was I doing it intentionally? If so why? Don’t know? So is there a solution? Don’t know?
Have to change the world on the whole -> to do that have to start it with myself. Cracked the first clue in the truth-hunt then what …? … Was on from dusk till dawn … finally…

Desperate measures for desperate times.
Only one – make the reference point to itself – an infinite loop – think that you are the whole world – simple – isn’t it? Or appears so? Then the solution would be …. What …. Suicide – yes, kill yourself - what better way than that is there to redeem you from everything – erase yourself so that the world would never come to know that you even existed.
Then the options kept pouring like politician’s unstoppable, never-materialize, promises during an election campaign. Ctrl+c / Ctrl+v in progress …

Was too soft with myself I thought …
Then …

Sensing the lip-tongue intercourse for saliva grabbed my glass n ran into the kitchen. Never came back. No need to go to the room where I was I thought.

As I closed my eyes for the last but first time – mark my words carefully – a beautiful slideshow of the best I have had so far flashed inversely on the inside of my eyelid. Then I saw myself controllable off the senses for the first time ever. Free from everything.

Next thing…


There are people around me enquiring my well being, discussing, staring, scolding, peeping, laughing – all kinds; short, medium, large – all sizes; greenish black, greenish dark, greenish black brown mix, greenish dark black – all but me in greenish blue. Those scenes brought dimple on my left cheek – recalled those stupid film makers who portrayed devatas fair, supremely gorgeous, clad with jewellery. As I was grinning I could sense something was wrong but could not sell till my heart by beating at 80>/ min and lungs pounding hinted that I was suffocating. Then felt future-fashock work on my nerves in the heavens as I saw shorts, goggles, skin tights and minis.

That’s when I hated my dayone@swimming.

Guess who?

It was another hectic day at office. Came to room at 12:30 AM. Not getting sleep so thought of doing something. Recalling that I did not bathe that morning went inside my stinking bathroom… Towel on... As I switched on my 60 watt bulb it roared at me. Flickering. Was finally up n staring down on me… Took 1 min to eye my soap... Got into my birthday suit. As I turned my shower knob in the anti-clock wise direction felt myself playing in the rain. For a moment silence has overtaken me. Silence everywhere. I am completely blank as if am at the entrance gate of the heavens.

My roomy with his phenomenal snoring capability brought me back to life. Started breathing. Immediately turned my shower knob in the clock wise direction.

The next thing see… she was shouting… running scared …panic everywhere… fear in her eyes… shouting something.

Then I tried hard to listen to what she was saying. Could not understand what she was trying to convene gave 2 ear buds a grand funeral and tried even harder.

Then I heard her voice…
Asking me…. who are you? How do you know about me?......

I turned sideways. Went to the other room where my friends were sleeping to check on the stupid tricks they play on me. Poor music system has not got up yet. Gets up at 6:00 AM every morning to blow my eardrums into pieces which it loves the most. Don know what have I done to it in my “poorva janma” (previous birth). Then I went back to bathroom to check on the taps. They are quiet either.
That scared the shit out of me.

Came to my bed convincing myself that I was just mapping onto something… Almost got convinced ….Then I heard the voice again.
Oh god! Now she sat right next to me.

Never got scared that much I was closing……
Then I heard her ask who are you? How do you know about me?


It was one Sunday afternoon I was in my 8th standard came home after playing cricket. Those were the days I used to feel like doing something new…summer holidays. My mom a superb cook I have (I will) ever tasted done with her lunch prep. Then I immediately washed my hands to jump on to my favorite aloo curry and charu Annam (rasam rice). I have never listened to my mom saying take bathe after playing. As I was enjoying my lunch my eyes fell on her. That was the time I used to long for that language as if a venture capitalist recognizes a growing market. It was new. Used to sit n watch whatever our cable guys, those days no channels were there, telecast. They used to play movies all day but Hindi movies only once on Sunday afternoons.

It was not a movie I watched for her.
But she … right now beside me shouting….

I thought she was damn ugly and would be a one movie wonder. She with her weird dress sense, those tiger skinned, zebra … can’t name likes, used to make me breathe harder as I can’t stop blasting at something I don’t like.

Now if I see her I have to make myself pay a visit to bathroom... Best things I prefer doing thereJ

After that she acted in a lot of crap movies but what I expected of her did not happen. As affairs are not a thing on mars to “filmi log “she too had many.

Of them keshu kumar…
A chef, a martial arts man n above all a big flirt in the industry. He too came a along way since then …One another revelation for the industry now a days… with his comic timing… an actor to bank on for average returns… things don’t happen as we plan…
He moved on with another buxom babe I mean married her becoming damaad to a yester year “romantic king”. That episode ends there.

Then I looked at her straight into her eyes. Her eyes in every possible way trying to find the person who is bothering her… looking ither uther…. Then I realized that I am invisible to her. How exciting being invisible right…Invisible… had I been one I would have helped our Indian cricket team win the world cup. Cricket… what an exciting game. Aussies man they are immortal so perfected the game that no one can even come close to them. After the performance of our Indians in recent past, I started shifting my interest to tennis… reason sania mirza... No qualms about it…But to tell you one thing about my old muse… used to like those over hyped edge of the seat exciting commentaries…

Here comes boycute
Rather than his tongue in cheek talk, satirical on some n partial to some dadas it was his muse over her I wanted to bring in to picture to try n let figure her out?

Why all this? Coz she is still shouting at me…
Then recently she went overboard I mean overseas to be a part of a celebrity reality show. What the hell is that? Ok no future shock… let me explain it clearly

There is this show hosted by some stupid channel where celebrities… there is a catch … those who currently have nothing else to do but to appear in every n any show just to make money… ultimate desire… got to accept… she represented our country India(some how cant get over this)…even surprising was she won that n got goodies back home.

This time she is at the peak of her anger... I can see it in her….

After that winning she got herself back n could capitalize on some offers too. God never stops chastening, does he? Now the entire nation … Hindu fanatics are up against her act… what is it?
Mr. gayer - who after his so many romantic (being formal) encounters on screen got older. Don’t need any more I guess. Not that he chose but destiny planned so…, kissed her on stage in public. According to our Hindutva keepers, sacred guards of our culture, this displaying act of awareness was so displeasing that they wanted gayer to be extradited n wanted an apology from her….

Now that she is crying….
As I woke her up in the middle of her sleep, let alone made myself a responsible idiot to give her another blow on the wound shut down my system by publishing my next one
