Me in 2007

Professionally speaking new job, my first national print campaign, my first (maybe last) modelling assignment, my first official office picnic, my first win in juwaa at the office picnic, my first entries for awards, my first contribution in office decoration… Personally speaking, my first anniversary, my first surgery, my first bunch of love letters from my current and future and beyond girlfriend, my first experience of a bachelor party, my first gym, my first belly, my first pair of Levi’s shoes… There are more of them but I can’t seem to remember. Will keep on adding later. On the bad stuff that happened, well it’s forgotten. Wishing you a Happy New 2008!

A sleepless night and birth of an idea.

I am a sound sleeper. No dreams, once sleep hits me I pass out till the alarm rings. I wake up, shut it down, go back to sleep till mom’s voice start ringing in my ears. Late for office again, my daily routine. Last week was different, just couldn’t sleep. Reason: alcohol. Sounds weird right but then I am twisted. On my way to finding sleep I stumbled upon some weird idea. Subconscious mind finding vague images, bringing together everything what my mind had stored, combining every word I memorised and then the birth of an idea. The idea: A man trapped in a box. Can’t get out of it. Like a mindless being he bangs at the walls, wanting to get out, waiting to get out... headline: Stuck in a box? The Brand: Naukri.com or maybe something else. The alarm just rang. Time to wake up. Bye bye.

My reason to beer... oops cheer!

I've been saving enough liquid i.e. water all these years. Not bathing on weekends is a big task you see. To add to this 'contribution' to the save water motto, I've got another idea. I quote it below guys and trust me it's for a cause: " If you feel thirsty, opt for beer. Yeah it quenches your thirst without wasting the essential H2O. "

Cause it's a weekend!

"You are so lazy, and unhygienic." "No I'm not. It's for a cause." "Cause? What cause? It's coz you are lazy." Well well... she'll neva understand. I care for the "save water" cause. I genuinely wish to save water. She follows drinking 8 glasses of water everyday for some goddamn healthy reason. Somebody needs to compensate for this excess usage (read wastage) of water. So I do. I do not take a bath on Sundays. Ok, this time on a Saturday as well. But it's for a big cause. Think about the millions of litres of water that is wasted across the world every day. Think about each of us simply avoiding the bathing tradition for a day or two in a week. Imagine the amount of water saved. But gals, will they ever understand that we men aren't dirty and unhygienic and all that? We just care for the world. We are the saviours, their saviours and they don't care. Guys, join me in the mission to save water and the world shall be pr...

Beowulf - The movie, my experience.

CAST (source: movies.about.com) - KING HROTHGAR - Anthony Hopkins BEOWULF - Ray Winstone GRENDEL'S MOTHER - Angelina Jolie GRENDEL - Crispin Glover UNFERTH - John Malkovich URSULA - Alison Lohman WIGLAF - Brendan Gleeson WEALTHOW - Robin Wright Penn CREW (source: movies.about.com): Director: Robert Zemeckis Movie hall: Fun Republic (Andheri) Some movies you wish your talkative girlfriend would keep quiet. Beowulf is one of them. Adapted from a poem (for more details on history go on to wikipedia), Beowulf is a very realistic animated movie, why I say so because at the beginning I had to say, “It’s an animated movie honey!” and she replied if it looks so real why not use real people? I’ll disclose the why in the following. Events in first half: King Hrothgar and men celebrating. Anthony Hopkins’s butt flash (the first why) Introducing Grendel Introducing Beowulf Seamonsters Introducing Grendel’s mother Virtually nude Angelina Jolie (the last and final and big why) Temptation Beowulf...

When I smile, I shine!

The Happydent White ad was truly amazing, a brilliant piece of work. Having teeth as bright as a light bulb though is unrealistic but it is an accepted proposition and an aspiration as well. The fact is when you smile from your heart, it shows... it shines. Like in this picture where I smile while listening to a beautiful song!

The History Of M&M

In the late 80s when Manik & Me met in the park as babies we had this idea of opening a company. Both young enthusiastic babies, both had potential, ideas decided it would be a .com and the name would be yum & yum but alas! Both fell asleep so the first corporate meeting ended with a snore of thanks by both the chiefs. In the early 90s again another meeting took place this time we decided what the content would be and the name changed to Chum&Chum. In the year 1995 another corporate meeting took place this time everything was finalized and the name was changed to M&M. We then included Anand and Donu on fukat basis to handle the site design and finance respectively. Then the official launch of the website took place on the 20 of July 2001 at midnight by President George Bush and Atalji. And the inauguration of the site ended by a yawn from the chief editor. Jyada fekene main kya jaata hai. The struggle of M&M Year 1995: M&M sets up a pan ka dukaan. Still there in...

Torture -ek (shuru hone se pehle full stop) prem katha.

After a long time I am writing a story about someone I know. Not necessarily a Sancharian. Anyway it all started when he got transferred to a new place. The first day in his new flat was exciting, all the freshly painted walls, all the new arrangements, a new room. A new neighbor. The real story starts when our hero opens the door and sees his first true love. This is how he describes her to me "Yaar she is an Artist’s dream, her glowing hair, her deep black eyes, her beautifully carved teeth." This is how his friends reacted "God save this dude, he is in love with the neighbor's dog". "No! U dumb asses it's the girl I am talking about" he replied angrily. His friends replied "God save this dude, the dog was better". Take two: The most difficult part of a guy's life. To patafy a girl. He goes to his friends and begs them to help him. So his friend’s suggestions were “Gift her something, directly propose to her dude, wait till Valentin...

Kumar’s Marriage Reception… It was a weird seeing Kumar getting married. This guy who was my friend since childhood suddenly gets married (Although in egroups he got married thrice and that also by me.) So there I was that too standing first, I was kinda nervous u may think y and I say I don’t know exactly y, probably this situation was something which definitely none of us were expecting or I didn’t know what to say should I say congrats dude or should I say barbaad ho gaya tu just kidding. Enough boring ya all now what happened when I reached there… I just entered the hall and saw Kumar just looking at us and I guess he was thinking r they looking at my wife. But he knew we r very nice fellars. So we waited for the rest of the junta to assemble cause we traveled by different cars. Sweet orange rasna was offered and we observed Kums who showing his trade mark two toothed smile bichare ko bahut practise ho gaya rahega savere aur shyam haste hua. After 30 mi...
