Suncity -WING TREAT 26 th aug

New sem starts and a new beginning new hopes and a new feeling and determination to do better than the previous sem. Oh come on whom m i trying to fool NEW SEM begins a lots of birthdays in the vacations and few foreign pts few other things to rejoice and BINGO we got enff cash to do a wing treat yes my frnds WING TREAT the second most pleasing words wat u can hear in IIT first one definitely is AA although that faces stiff competition from the word BABE.
OKies so this time we decided to keep the venue SUNCITY no 5 star buffets this time since we were running a bit low on the cash department moreover most of the guys had better palns then just to eat and that means hard core booze Booked the rooftop of SUNCITY left the hostel on bikes at arned 8:30 and before the rain gods showered their blessings on the sleezy streets of mumbai at 9 :15 we were safe inside the hotel . OKies i have never been to this place before but heard a lot abt it really economical and good service and when i saw the place i was convinced tht my fellas were not wrong.We already asked for a music system so i burnt a cd before leaving the hostel consisting all the kool songs some hard core metal grunge n hip hop to desi gaane like dilli ki sardi. Now simce here we ordered a buffet so food was out of concern the starters were served and so was the case with the booze.

TIME check 9:45 pm everybody one peg down the music is LOUD and the floor was vibrating the things started to get a bit nasty as people started dancing oh wait a sec tapping on the floor.
MUSIC : smells like teen spirit wat else can be better to start the day off the woofers were balsting and my head already started feeling tht gyrating feeling which u feel after a carzy ride.

TIME check 10:15 pm well at this time most of the guys including me were running on their second glass but the race winners SHOOO, GUPTA infact even sandy were doing bottoms up on their third peg and were roaming arnd the bartender to get that extra large fourth one too.Now this was HIP HOP and fusion bahngra time songs like " kala chasma" " SHUT UP " "kangna" were rocking the rooftop and we were danicing out like carzy brats .
MUSIC : SHUT UP .Black eyed peas





TIME check 10:45pm by this time every body was ...FUCK THIS now no had the account of how much he drank everyone was on the dance floor This was killer time LIMP BIZKIT METALLICA PEARL JAM one after the other METAL PUNk everything was coming out of the speakers we guys made a mosh pit hell lot of HEAD BANGING morshing pulling jumping right in the middle we were hitting eac other so hard the hotel people got scared a bit :P. ( later i talked toi tht bartender he told me whenver IIT junta comes in they are on their toes coz they always break things or create hell lot of chaos.) well thts in our nature tht we can't help.


TIME 11:15 pm onwards we had to lower the music coz of the new rules of no loud music after 11 pm so now the music was on at a lower decible level. Now came the msoit interesting part of any DAARU party
THE VICTIMS ( men with the GOLDEN mouth...... those guys in which this divine drink induces a strange power or strength tht they can bug anyone) :-

FEW KEY PLAYERS among the 17 sinners

THE SHOW STOPPER : - yes the most prestigious award for the guy who made other people feel like stabbing him to death the man who bugged the most and made sure everyone got a part of it .
PUT UR HANds together it goes to LAPPOO. yes this guy being a DUAl degree student got senti tht inhis last year he is going to be all alone and he wil miss the rest of subzero fellas and they are gonna forget hima n on n on n on. Thsi guy was crying at the top of his voice trying to make sense out of useless crap.


THE VICTIM : - this is the guy who is intoxicated to the core the DAARU did some weird things to his nervous system n by the time he ws 7 pegs down standing still or walking was a mammoth task for this GUY total out subah utha to kuch yaad nahin ki kal raat ko kay hua.
HERE it is my friend whose hand was burnt a glass piece pierced thru it but nuhtin cud keep him away from his glass yes he is the ONE N ONLY GANDHI

SENTAP KA KANTAP :- yes this is another guy who gets senti buy seein tht other people are senti its like a back reaction when lappoo was crying and we were taking care of him so he felt neglected or watever do he also started crying so tht we care for him too we did but eventually lappoo was the main concern : EVEn wehen we came back this guy was crying and still tryin to get some attention some of hsi dialogs were GUPTA mere bahi hai usse phone do, koi bahi ko bhi bhoolta hai kya n blah n blah n blah..........

THE PUKER : 6 is the count yes thts the number of pukes he did last night few came naturally others were forced by inserting his fingers down his throats. This is the MR AASHIQ of our wing anshu aka SHO aka BHA#WA.

THE TANK : 8 pegs down still pouring in everything wat was coming near to his mouth and when we walked out he said aaj do teen peg aur hote to main out ho jata yes this is the TANKI SANDY .

THE NO NO GUY :- MUNNA pehle to main daaru nahin peeonga agar signature nahin hai to main na peene wala Now this guy walks in phir to jo samnne sab andar baad mein when i was giving neat rum then also nahin laddoo aur nahin but har baar sab kcuih andar .

The POOR GUYS : this is a very small clan of non drinkers one guy gave up drinking two nevr tried n another was holding back till he drank arnd 90 ml of neat rum in one shot . PONDY chodu and kox. they were the spectators of the whole game

The survivor : YEs this is a new category since every one was trying his level best to get this guy in the zone by convinving him in HAZAAr ways to drink more n more but this guy in a very smart way fooled evryone and kept himself to a peg or two . THIS IS PAPPu the HARAMIII of the wing.

The GENERAAL JUNTA : well these are the guys who had their share of drinks but they knew their limits and were either under drunk or they hit the sweet spot.JANGALE, HILAYE robin me junta and all were the sharin candidates

THE LEADER : - IT got to be the only person before i say anything u all are screaming hsi name yes JUNTA the organizer from arranging the money to clearin the bills this guy did all

BEEN there DONE tht : GOne are the days when DAARU used to intoxicate him now he drinks it like water 8 9 the number is futile tht never makes a diff . KAL HE was saying abe LADDOO yaar ab mujhe WITHOUT DOPE chadti hi nahin hai . GOD knwo where and when he is gonna stop .

THE KILLER : - Yeah i knwo THE Bartender is more appropriate but lets face it this is my blog and i will give myself a cool name.:P. SO at arnd 12:30 we all were out and the general acts of sentis drinkin pukes were over BUT just at tht momenbt i saw the Almost 3/4th of the rum was still left so a thought came to my mind i started making my own dessert TOOK icecreams and rassgullahs and added NEAT RUM to it . I tasted it myself and the next thought wat came to my mind was ab aage main ek baar bhi isse nahin kha raha sirf logogn ko kahilounga. WOrds like " pla yaar ek aur ..:" " chal yeh wala mere naam par " ...yeh dosti ka were coming out of my mouth my hands were running and people were having this neat rum . I FINISHED the whole bottle yes the 3./4th rum although next mornign i had to hear all kind of GAALIs for this GRAET act .

LAST PIC when lappoo was senti and SHO was out



CHALO YAAR finally nice treat we are palnning to do it again after mid sems
MISSED LINDA

We came back at arnd 1:30 am and after tht wing ki normal masti n back to sleep .

CRASH & MAGNOLIA

Probably this is not of interest for most of the people. But i was bound to write this . Two great movies a serious and brave attempt to make cinema which we can truly call as beautiful. I saw Magnolia a year back i loved the movie and today saw CRASH and was bound to write something about it.

Magnolia (1999) Directed by Paul Thomas Anderson Writing credits : Paul Thomas Anderson

“Things fall down. People look up. And when it rains, it pours.”

CAST :Tom Cruise Pat Healy Julianne Moor Genevieve Zweig Mark Flannagan William H. Macy


Crash (2004) Directed by Paul Haggis Writing credits Paul Haggis (story) Paul Haggis (screenplay)

“You think you know who you are. You have no idea.”
CAST Sandra Bullock Don Cheadle Matt Dillon Jennifer Esposito William Fichtner Brendan Fraser

As obvious from the above the CAST of both the movie need no introduction it got to be a powerful performance packed movie.
What really en thrills me is the approach both the directors adopt to convey the message. Its is so simple yet so powerful.

The mood and stories and characters keep building and building and building, and when it finally comes down, I feel this immense sense of relief and wonder these two movies were able to come up with something so clever and intertwining and wondrous, and was able to pull it off. This "movie" is not for everyone. It is thinking-hat required.

Magnolia and CRASH both are stories of 6-7 strange people all leading their life marooned from each other but how a series of events lead them to come together. ITs about the agony, the pain , the stress, the emptiness,the joy, the ecstasy, the sweet smile which comes to your face when see your child sleeping , the incomplacency you feel when u see a loved one in pain the humiliation of being molested and the warmth for the same person when he saves your life, the feeling of being lost the feeling when everything seems to go the wrong way the FEEL of coming back to life from death, the sense of indifference when people judge you on the basis of your skin color, the feeling of loosing the faith of your own mother the fear when you don't feel safe in your own home the moment ,you realize your friends are not the real friends the feeling when the whole world consider you as a winner but deep down inside you know what you really are, the shine of red roses when you are in love or the neverending black dakness where hope seems to be move away from you every moment. Life has got many shades and many chores..............

Both movies share one common feature the the characterization is so intense and strong that as the camera moves over each of the characters, allowing us to see their lives, there's a constant feeling that we are seeing the characters souls laid bare on film. The camera work is amazing the long shots to the converge scenes all are brilliant and so is the SOUNDTRACKS. As the story unwinds and the camera moves the music gets you into the mood.

ONLY controversial thing about magnolia is the ending scene of falling frogs which is a big debate in itself.

THIS IS THE CINEMA everbody must watch because somewhere it helps you to understand life and its colors in full spectrum.

So i am back and this time after a long time but yeah i was having a hard time regarding few things
Last week was mixed a great oppurtunity and i saw it slipping through my fingers but still i got something out of it.
So the mega weekend ( friday to monday being 15th aug) comes we all decide to hit down the roads and make this weekend last in our heads for some time. THe GANG :- GUPTA, SANDY LAPPU and ME.
The brain starts to wander around brawling through the names of all the probable hang out joints. we nailed it to SHOOTERS yes blazing ,music a wooden dance floor open till 4 am in the night and the people are lively this place has got everything wat any guy wants.
THis time unlike the othere days since out KACHU ( tortoise ) sandy acted fast and he wasted lil less time on his face pack so we left our hostel on our bikes at 7:30.
NOw comes the real scoop Gupta promised one of his frnd to be there we never met that guy before so we thought he is going to be a real stud as he promised us that he will get us a stag entry on a friday night.Now we all are waiting outside the bandra station for this guys, I will call him "escort boy" . Suddenly a skiny chap dressed in the outfits which looked like a straight adaptation from some govinda's flick this guys walks in and says one more his frnd is coming who is a kool chap and another female is coming who is a dopist. We thought who cares for the cool guy but the dopist is worth the wait :P. No one showed up for the next 10 minutes and we were getting restless to get ourselves drowned in beer. Escort boy then told lets go to zenji a decnt pub we walk in that place looked like bandstand's lovers spot to me guys and gals sitting together the music was too light the lighting was also very bright no grooviness at all.


Escort Boy is still on the cell trying to get the dopist and by this time we lost the interest in the dopist and we all were like "FUCK HER" we don't need her here . SO now we tell this escort boy to be on his way as we are getting late and we need to go to SHOOTERS.

These guys have a very modest outer area you won;t even realise there is a hell lot of fun inside. You walk in and you are tattooed with some of the most childish marks a smiley :). Wateva we move in and as always we started our order. WHen u go to a PUB our golden rule is don;t eat anything inside beacuse if we guys will start eating inside we will be ending up by payin them in ways which i think are not appropraiate to expalin,ALL we do it run rounds of beer and more beer. We were inside at 10:30 pm thts when first round came in then till 3 :30 am in the morning beer came in and we ended up with 12 bottles of beer in 4 guys.


SHooters is kool the music is lively the gals are great and the dance floor rocks. we were dancing all night suddenly ESCORT BOY moves in the same place with his friend. Now we got out chance. LAPPOO was all drunk lost all of his senses and he literally started beating up tht guy while he was dnacing. EXCORT BOY came to me for rescue and told me "be yaar issko roko isne infinite pee li hai". and we were like abe enjoy kar yaar dance kar.

Around 3:30 am in the morning the music stopped and some heavy sounds came from my backside as i turned back a bottle of beer flew pass by me, giving my forehead a 2 inch margin from SIX STICHES on the forehead. MAN tht bottle was gyrating in the air and as it passed by me i felt the air moving my hairs. ACtually what happened was there were two HOT HOT HOT looking two females who from every angle looked like lesbians .They were wearing the hottest dress in the neighbourhood. They were dancing all night and when ever a guy approached them they said no . Two groups of guys had a fight for these gals so one guy hit another guy with a bottle on his head . IT was so filmy even the gals were fully drunk and they were also equally involved in the fight one chick was trying to hit a guy with a mug of beer.

ANYWAY we left the place but still it was only 3:30 am so we thought of having chicken kebab at the AirPORT.Biked whroomed and we left for airport.BUt before that as always our tradition BANDSTAND walk in front of barista. THe sound of the ocean makes you feel stronger and for few moments you forget all your worries the submissions the tests the quizzes of iit.

ITS fun to ride in mumbai late in the night it is so cool. The same roads are filled with four wheeleres oozing out smoke and the traffic moving snail's pace in the evening. In the night things are all different the street light makes the highway looks like a runaway and the pulsar which i was driving was no less than an airplane.

WE went over to airport had our chicken at arnd 4:30 am hanged arnd till 5 am.
By the time we came back in the hostel it was 6 am in the morning. I came back and the only thought that was on my mind was to hit the bed.

I got up at 10 am strangely god knows how that happened and i was feeling fresh.I took the newspaper only to see MANGALA PANDEY is on and Lifestyle sale is on SO asked around the wing for a movie only narbhakshi agreed we went to RMALL saw the movie pretty okie dokie did some shopping and then came back next day i had my MOCK CAT so studied a bit .
THEN came sunday morning the mock cat did pretty okay as compared to last time wateva i was happy.
ENUFF ............
Again a weekend sucessfully helping us all to terminate the week long worries and agony.Though a bit heavy on the pocket.

CURRENT MOOD :- confused

MUSIC :- THERE GO MY AIRPLANE

SINCITY




THe lights are off the door is closed the speakers of my computer are screaming at the highest decibel level and their electronic diaphrams are vibrating so hard that it gives my 4 month old woofer a time of its life.Ladies and gentlemen its Showtime --SINCITY IS ON.i saw it for the 6th time today.the last 4 shows were in the last 3 weeks only ( thts the time when i got hold of the DvD of the movie).

"Dwight: It's time to prove to your friends that you're worth a damn. Sometimes that means dying, sometimes it means killing a whole lot of people."


Sincity is not a movie its a piece of art which doesn;t touches ur heart or titlates ur inner soul it penetrates throught he hard skull of your head and hits you hard smhwere in your brain. each and evry character in the movie is portrayed so well that they all have a prsona of their own. packed with dames like goldie SHELLY , BEckY , GAIL , NANcy , MIHO who give seduction and art of killing a whole new definition. MAchoism was never so machoi before hartigan marv and dwight hit the silver screen.

John Hartigan: An old man dies. A young girl lives. A fair trade. I love you, Nancy.

AFter watching sincity i got hold of the orginal sincity graphical novel n each and every dialogue in the movie is a straight outcoem frm the novel. the movie justifies its R rating in hte first half an hour and lives upto the expectation till the end of the movie.plenty of Blood shot babes boobs wounds dead bodies chopped hands pistols and crashing cars. its definitely the best comic adaptation till date.

Marv: Walk down the right back alley in Sin City, and you can find anything...

First day of fourth year JULY 26 TH

Someone is b@nging my door, got to be sandy.I check my watch and see just as the minute hand crosses the 2 digit marks and the hour hand already passed 8 i roll over to the other side just as the second hand ticks over other numbers.Morning lectures not my kind of an idea, 80 % percent attendance insty rules. So i collect all the energy in my god damn body and get my a$$ off the bed. I look outside the window to see the rains are pouring so heavily as if there is a hole in the sky. So i get back to where i was.MY first day's lectures are ruined.
This time time when i woke up someone was calling "JUNTA LUNCH TIME". i get up and get down to have my lunch .The rains are taking no break infact they got heaviers and faster. Came back to enjoy my share of BLOODSHED in the CS arena which turned out to be pretty good my hands were steady as rock each and every bullet which i was firing was making holes in some bloody terrorists body.Then the usual stuff and tiffin time we all go back again to the mess the lift is not working so we all slide 5 floors down only to see there is a so much water in the mess that boating or kiaking seemed a better idea to get to the other end of the mess.MY tiffin is ruined.
8 pm in the night we all are starving the rains are not in the mood of stopping no not tonite. We call up the Dominos guy they are not picking up the phone and so was the case with SP o nutan or any fucking restaurant in the vicinity.
Suddenly an idea strikes us all to get out there right in the middle of this watery mess to have our dinner. We grab our gears and take the keys.All dressed up in cargos or shorts with wind cheaters .

Gupta me sandy munna narbhakshi robin n lappoo.We guys decided we ain't setting down for anything less than a Dominos pizza tonite. the rains were hitting hard and right in the face the windcheaters were no help. my cargo was all drenched even before we left the outer area of h 13. water upto knee level logging at every place giving 50 k priced 150 CC engine of pulsar a tough ride. we parked our bikes at main gate and started walking to HN . it was amazing and adventurous.Pizza hut was closed cars were moving with water level knocking at the windshield. Somehow we reach Dominos had our pizzas they tasted never so good.By the time we came bakc we all were shivering but still there was a satisfaction beacuse we all had a tiem of our life.

Fourth year's starting blast



SO finally I m back I mean we are back this time of year and our brain starts to wonder to catch the last glimpse of freedom just before the shackles of classes and lecture restrict us. Again Khandala 3 bikes 5 people and bang you got yourself a group consisting of three loaded guns ( Sandy , Gupta and me) ready to shoot out even before you pull the trigger and two lazy bums(munna and Linda) who thinks vacation is all about meditation and giving your mind a zone of ultimate comfort.

Time check :- 9 o clock in the morning and the alarm clock is beeping making my head feel like twice of its size what it was last time I checked. I get up n start shouting at other guys to wake up and smell the coffee we better get going but to I m amazed to c that everyone is up but GUPTA is missing( he left for his TRACTOR’s servicing).
Finally we leave Bombay at 4 pm just as we were about to cross the city limits a THULLA starts showing us a way making our bikes way to his run way. FIRST Q SIGNAL NAHIN DIKHTA KYA? We all thought Signal to tha hi nahin to dikhega kaise?? Watever second trouble LINDA baby has got no license but we smhow buy our escape with 200 cash I start driving. Second hault McD.

We manage a decent timing and reached khandala at 7 pm then started the quest for finding a decent bed to ease ourselves out took a room and we darted to a Diamond restaurant booze chicken n music till 3 am when we walked out of the place to we saw all our bikes tyres flat smone did tht intentionally but instead of solving who did that and why we started looking for a petrol pump by this time LINDA and MUNNA were completely exhausted but me gupta and sandy were enjoying every moment of the hardships.

Then the morning time we checked out at 6 :30 am and straight away made our way to BHUSHI dam man its awesome place with all the dames and the water that place makes you leave all your worries on a Space shuttle destined to outer space. We did some trekking and headed to the waterfall above and the final product makes all your efforts worthwhile.

Enuff of Dam thing and then the best part of khandala visit a Bike ride to the Sahara Amby Valley. The rain drops were hitting so hard on my face that the doctor’s needle now seemed to me a gentle touch. The hills were covered with clouds making everything after the range of 10 m almost invisible to eyes. It was hell lot of an experience driving in those conditions by the time we reached the top were were drenched and our teethes hitting so hard each other that they started making sound. Then gupta pops up an idea and that’s it we got out own cure way of dealing with the rain and cold. We took few hard shots of vodka and whiskey and that’s the rain no longer bothered any of us. Though mixing it was not a smart idea getting intoxicated and driving but anyhow it was gupta’s brain wat else you an expect.

FINALLY WE left khandala at arnd 5 pm reaching Bombay at arnd 9 pm
MAN I WAS AWAKE FOR 37 HOURS STRAIGHT. By the time we were back every MUSCLE in my body was promising me thousands of pain which were about to hit me but finally when I slept I had a feel of satisfaction coz I knew I started this sem again with a bang.
