Echoes of the Past!! (Part 2)...


Last time when we met, we were in mechanics lecture; let’s forward our story some months. College has reopened; everyone has been looted again by 60,000 for bunking classes, for those hopeless sessionals which are just for show and for those weary lectures. But this time we had new item numbers in store for us.

As usual we mech-animals had 6 subjects and every other branch had 5, so we have rivalry with them, and how to show that, go to every other branch’s forum and dance like monkeys at the back! We people were famous for this act, even our seniors paid fine for breaking valuables of our nugget like auditorium. Now almost a year n half has passed but it seems like they just happened yesterday!

One thing I strongly feel to mention is, as we all grew shrewd and sagacious as time passed our professor’s were embellished with moronic and feebleminded features. One milestone I remember from the 2nd year is hilarious, our fluid power class was roll calling , I was sitting on 2nd or 3rd bench probably, a guy who didn’t attended the lecture was standing outside the classroom

SIR: answer your presnty…1, 2, 3………

1: yes sir

2: preeeeseeent siiiiirrrrr!

3: yesir……..( itne jaldi me bolta tha ki sirf “aes” itnahi sunai deta tha..ha ha ha)

………………………….

69… he sneaked from the door and said “yes sir” and that dumb without even lifting his head up marked him as present. And we were like “then why the hell we were sitting, getting our balls fried!!”  But you know every cloud has a silver lining, so we united the whole class and to fight fire with fire, bunked his lectures next day!

But every dog has his day, so that dumb put us in pre-detention list and we were forced to attend his lectures. As no man can serve two masters, and (we are masters of ourselves) so we found new ways to irritate him, we started going late to the lectures, after every lecture we took a long pee break for at least 10 to 15 minutes! In mean while we used to sit in enclosed walled structure we call it “SMOKING ZONE” (no one really smokes there, but it looks like one). And when entering into classroom only one will say “may I come in sir” and group of 20 -30 students will follow him!! That was such a mess..

One day the same scene was there just a bit different happened, we didn’t say “ may I come in” instead Ambarish yelled loudly “ SANNAATAAAAA” , and everyone of us entering, fumbled. We just ran to our places so that he isn’t able to see us, but in between kotapaali fell down, anurag fell on him. Some boys got hurt with table corners in most unexpected places!!! and expressions of professor was just unforgettable, he was stunned, frightened, dumbfound, confounded, stupefied by our act man that was most unforgettable moment in my life….The best word to describe the act  “chengra-chengri” Ha ha ha !!

OK then now it’s bunking time, meet you in the next year part till then….SANNAAATTTAAAAA….!!!!

That wondrous vesper

Liking something is just a question of how much peace it yields in you. Everyone finds his own peace in his own ways yet many times we don’t know where to find one. I was restless for almost a weak or more now; many reasons, my work, missing home, missing her, whatever the reasons were but my day was not ending as I wanted it to be. Vivek called one evening and said, “Hey! Guess what! Anoushka Shankar is coming in town for a live concert. What’s say??” I asked, “Where is it? How much for the tickets?” Coincidentally it was just near my home, we both booked the tickets. Before that, I listened to some of her songs and I felt a need from within to go here her. Something was disparate in those vibrations, they moved me. I decided at that moment only, I want to; rather I have to go to this concert. 6 Th of December – 2013, I came home tired from work. Traffic made it a gruesome ride to home! Though one part of my head was busy planning schedule for tomorrows work; I took a bath th...

PUNE RAINS!!!

24 th July, I clearly remember the date, as I left Nagpur, sometime later I realized it was not only Nagpur or my city that I left. It was my life back then. My parents, my home, relatives, friends, college, masti, my love, sorrows, moments of joy, moments that left behind. They all became memories, some faded, some like it happened yesterday. Next morning I was standing at Pune station, baffled. New co-voyagers, new destinations and new challenges. I just walked out of station, looked up; it spelled…. ‘Le Meridian’ At once a mirthless yet tremulous smile came on my face. Then I realized I have to search for a home. Got shared auto, reached to destination. Searched ferociously for a flat and got one!! On first morning I woke up; walked in gallery, it was pouring pleasantly. The yesterday’s feeling was still there but less intense, rather my mind was less entangled in it. I closely watched those raindrops, those opulent raindrops; they carried capacity of bringing so...

First Rencontre with her!

I don’t clearly remember in which grade I was then, but may be 8 th or 9 th I guess. I belong to Umrer, a town 50kilometers from our own city of oranges. What can you expect from me then, to have a girlfriend! Or to be smart enough to impress girls; I was totally unknown to all these facts till I met her.   But I am charismatic since childhood; I am a good speaker able to drown you in my wordy ocean. I was a famous guy in my school back then, Girls wanted to talk to me as I was one of the clever students scoring 90s in every exam.   But I still didn't find any allurement in the creatures called girls (back then!) . My grandma lives in Nagpur. So in every summer we used to come here (as now I live in Nagpur itself) . For me and my little sister reaching Nagpur meant reaching her home. My uncle too lived here with my grandma. He has a son and a daughter. My cousin sister and me, used to share boys and girls kind of stuff being of same age. So my knowledge about ...
