Dard – e - Zindagitheque


                                                  


There have been loads of mishaps around.

 A 41 year old suicides along with a 27 year old neighbour. No one knows if they are inter-linked.
Kishore goes to his school to sees his teachers !!.

There happened to be a virtual occasion where two teens were seen laughing and a boy humiliated as usual and ended with him off away crying . I have no idea how the mood changed.

A Russio Canadian gets pissed at my activities and tells me to analyse instead of solve J.

An elder comments on the differences between loving a girl and loving a woman. Well , the extent to which he thinks is quite justifiable. The main point was , you marry a girl and live with a woman and you are just a 23 year old kid .

Another moment was when you cheer and later sit quite thinking what am I supposed to speak. This is that weird moment when you realize  , it is upto you to make things work .

Sukumari is dead L.

Life happens to be such a thing where the situations of happiness lead you to end up with a can of worms and the worst part being you think of how to hand over the can of worms to your neighbor instead of opening the can and cooking the worms .

I had to stammer in order to understand a stutterer during a five 9 call. Might sound cruel, but I did it in my mind (the stammering part) . Speaking of stammerers , I always wanted to write about the people whom I have met in life who happened to dribble .The best thing of such people, the personality they bear happens to make it the most memorable moment that I lived with them:

Mithun, my childhood friend. Whenever he said Kishore , it was kkkkk – e – shor . I used to go to his home after school during 1st and 2nd standard. There used to be lots of snakes in the way to home and dad decided I stay at Mithun’s home after school till he comes to pick me up. We watched – Independence day , Dunston Checks in, Godzilla and some oldies together in a video cassette player. His mom used to make us some really good food and they were always surprised and happy seeing me. I never have been to his some to see him since. I have been ignorant. The latest news I got was he was paralysed and his dad is looking after him. There are a lot of prayers going around for him. I hope he gets back and starts driving the taxi called life and make it to the best conditions again.

“IT KINDA OFFENDS ME TELLING THE WORD STUTTERER. SO I A GOING TO REFER EM ALL BY NAME. “

Mani Periyappa : Vaikom Subrahmania Iyer (age 78) , the son of Vaikom Gopalakrishna Iyer. My father’s eldest brother in terms of age. I see him weekly and whenever he is in steady state of mind , he repeats and struggles. It just takes few seconds to change the frequency to a steady stream of words and that is when you debate this giant knowledge base with points that you learnt from google. Whether it be Smultronstallet or Orson Welles, he knows everything. Retired 20 years back and still fighting with his sister in law, he lives about 500 metres from my work place. It seems to be written in my head that I get to live with this google during this period of life.  

Sweta : This girl happens to be my classmate. I do not know much of her. One incident that comes to my mind is on that occurred during 2001 at Kodunganoor at my school. I was in 6th Standard and our English teacher was aaahm , Rukmini madam. I recently spoke to mam on the phone, she now works at Varkala and continues to teach the language. The incident is not related to madam , it is related to Akshay Sharma. Well, this girl struggled reading the chapters aloud when the teachers asked us to do it one by one. Well, this fella Akshay happens to be a naughty boy (a "********" now I guess) , he likes to lit up dead candles . Whenever, there was a trouble pronouncing the word (I remember , it was “responsible”) . Well, the first ‘s’ was okay, the second one lasted for 2 to 3 seconds and suddenly a shout out in the form of “RESPONSIBLE” was pronounced by the fat boy. This was just the advent of what happened out to be an embarrassing moment for the girl and she broke out at the end. Kinda touchy moment. God knows what these people are doing now L .

Abhinav: He works at my office. I have heard him struggle speaking to the customers. Well, he is a product specialist and does his job well during escalations and complicated situations. That is all that is takes for him no matter how the problem is. There is a lot of inspiration from an experienced person in the form of Danny Xavier that nurtures this budding talent. There is a silent acknowledgement in the form of a nod whenever I see his face. Makes me happy seeing the confidence and courage that this great worker bears !

Makdee girl : The girl among the twins that struggles to speak. Another classic character from a Vishal Bharadwaj movie !!

Kaminey kapoor : Another Vishal’s character. The scene where Shahid sings to gives the statement at police station in the form of a songs . OMG , how does it take for the pen to yield this out of the brain. Simply a great one.

Special 26 Fake officer : This was a cameo but still he makes us remember the character with some flawless performance. Made me feel guilty at the end to realize even he was cheated by the heroes . Hope there is a second part where he gets a better part to play. 


There are lots of other people whom I have met , but the above people have made a difference in my life as they still live in and made a day at some point in time . 

I thank you all.
