Mom called up
"babu baari kobe aashbi."
"maa. dis time m not willing to go jabalpur. m goin bilaspur."
meantime rishi turns up, kickin my door. his usual way
"wiloopt praani, kya kar rhe ho?"
"abe, magazine kab aa rhi h"
Magazine. yaa. its named sushrut. d mgims students magazine. dis time dey highlited 06'batch as d guinea pig batch. World thinks dis batch gone crazy. Why not? After all its 06 factor. 6. its number of d beast.666. d satanic number. so there had to b something different about dis batch. d biggest fights & politics d college had ever seen.d batch was already flushed into 3groups. This is d story of one group in which i was.
&why i m so excited about d magazine is just bcoz of my article in it. conspiracy theories. it was a debatable one. my article. 1st i write Taj Mahal not built by shah jahan, its by rajputs. d damn topic gets censored. even though, earlier i was gonna write Gandhiji killed by Hindu mahasabha& britishers. surely i would hav been resticated alongwit d editor if we had done so. &wats good wit dis 1either. my Pan cake theory couldn't b printed. i ask mohit. fucker mohit.
"ha ha ha. tera to kaam ho gaya. tera pancake theory hi nhi chapa"
"kyon? kya hua?"
"usne tera article kaat diya"
"who???"
"ankita. aur kaun?"
wat d hell. i had to approach rishi to know actual fact. d fact was dat my article was too long& dey wanted to put up a pic alongwit d article. so no space. however apollo landing hoax, pyramids& no.11 got in. there was no point in heating up head accusing d girl. already i was angry wit her bcoz of d drama involvin her & anurag. she wants 2walk wit him on d ramp without lettin me know. &if also i know den don't let any1 else know.
"it wil b a surprise" -ankita.
wat hell bullshit surprise. already was facing mind boggling surprises. prabhakar ballamwar fightin for anita, yogi wants aanchal& aanchal want guy of her choice, every1 got problem wit prabhakar, bagga wants2 land straight on ramp, kamlesh breakin his hand, supratim fightin wit pritam for bare chest, dhoti problem- rishi wants2 wear it but doesn't know how 2wear it, azhar has2 wear it but doesn't want to, ankur wants a fair girl. my bare chest contenders sometimes crossed 14 & sometimes down to just 3.
d bridals. every nite carry speakers laptop to bio chem dept alongwit nupur &play d song 'o re piya' &watch jaya walk in. its 11:30pm. i did 3hrs gym 1hr swimmin, had dinner, feeling sleepy. at such time u got 2watch dis crackhead walk. felt like pick up d speakers &throw dem on her face &say- "teri bhains ki taang. ab mai batata hoon ramp pe kaise chalte hai". den comes ankita, wit her big beautiful eyes, smilin dancin all her way
i thought she would either ask for How I Met Ur Mother episodes or tel somethin about her anurag
"hi arnab. arnab, u know..."
& every damn thing is out. all secrets revealed. rite from which girl smellin foul to girl fights. nikita trying to shut up her. but no. another crackhead. nikita. some guys in boys hostel got crush on her madly. my friend tops d list. it won't b suitable to name him here. God knows how. why? bcoz i had fight wit dis nuisance girl. not once, twice. all i told her was she wasn't lookin good in her outfit. she got d looks. she could hav looked better. &i got fired for sayin dat. no. never fight wit girls. who knows wat happens when. u can't control ur anger& u end up bashing her up nicely& she goes out complainin -dis guy tried to rape me.
looks funny. very much apparent.
i guess dats wat mohit amit rathod always tried to tell me- dis girls aren't good. stay away.
& why should i? i got dis chance to work wit dem. dat was how i became fashion show incharge. i had no idea of dressing, formations. even in 05 gathering, i ended screwing up. kawalkar forfeits. question arrives who's next wit nupur? its bagga or arnab. nupur votes for bagga. &dats how i become fashion show incharge. reason being anti nupur prospects of mohit rathod. but wat followed was worse for dis guys going against girls. i go &join hands wit d girls. situation heated up. amit singh sittin& watchin d show. dis guy is a great unique friend of mine. sometimes he saves my ass& sometimes, he takes it puts it on barbwire.
for me was all about d bare chest round. dis round was nowhere dis time. d fights at bio chem dept. anupama turnin up watch practice& we got no formations. we watch shefali exceling out. wat we didn't know was her ongoing rift wit d guys.
anyway. all is well dat ends well.
bridal round show every year. dis year it was d most glamorous one.
filmy round was d innovativ one. thanx to nupur for her ideas. she always said rite from d very ich meetin- "we need somethin new" & dat was it. why i walked in2 it. hey i was d aamir khan ghajini. another chance of body show for me.
heaven hell round. it should hav been black &white round. bare chests took dis round to its peak. d longest round with 23people.
our all rounds were colourful. bridals- 16people wit 10tracks. filmy- 21people wit 8tracks. heaven hell- 23people wit 8tracks.
as far as d others were concerned, blue round- audience got pissed of watchin same people for 15mints. formations worked wonders. elements round- audience wonderin wat hell element is, same track got people pissed. east meets west left audience wondering where is east, where is west. warriors was just a fancy dress competition made wit d glue to paint d girls' face green. all assholes filled in dem.
khadi round- i was d scapegoat got by anupama to make dis round. though it made. good formation by shefali again. d evening dis round was made, nupur had accident at wardha. so she couldn't turn up. vinit won't bcoz of his shefali fight. when i was making, i should hav walked in it again. should hav taken dat advantage.
our gathering could have possibly led 2persons comit suicide, had they seen it.
1. michael jackson[had he been alive] after watching yogi dance.2. gerard butler after seeing tiwari becoming a spartan
whole gathering dis time, i didn't fine space to watch it.
1st day- get every1 for khadi round. den for bridals. den off for chicken.
2nd day- started wit filmy. i remember i over drenched my hair wit gel which spoiled my pant. my enterance always made d best hooting. den off for gym. amit called up- "its time"
& we rushed. supratim, mahesh, ramesh baghel. all bare chests prepared to hit d stage. total oiling. oils dipping from everywhere. still more oil. den backstage pumps. heaven part done. enter hell. sridhar tells me my underwear is visible. i say let b. should hav bought jockey.
my turn. i knew d crowd wil overwhelm me. as expected.
however it wasn't like last year when we could clearly hear 'rambo. rambo' from stage only. blunders were made by girish sridhar aniket. yet it was d best.
my 3rd enterance was on d triple h track- time to play game. d surprise hit d audience wit d act spillin water over d body &den walk over, a double biceps shot. again &again. it was typical rambo style. a thing which mohit tried to make fun on 1st day in his mimicry. so wat. there is only guy to put up muscular poses. no1 else got dat much guts.
it was thereafter mehndale sir shoutin at me psm viva- "beta, we know u love to do gym& its a good thing. but take care of studies too"
he was rite.
post gathering. ankur goes mad for vibha. i was sad lookin at end of my bare chest era. stil workin on plan of show up at 08gatherin. baghel worked wonders. supratim got branded.
it was allover superb.
why its called show off. it reminded me of teachin d formations &d girls makin fun of me- "arnab, aage jaake show off karna mat bhoolna" & i was like- "paas mat aana, warna tel laga dunga".
