My Xperiments with Truth......

(Age of 6:::)I always feel that there is a scientist lurking in me as I love experimenting.It was night and there was power cut.My brother and me had just finished drinking milk and he was just relaxing on the chair.With the candle burning in between us, my mind clicked...I decided to perform a test similar to what scientists perform on rodents.

As it was dark and our house didnt have rodents I had to take up a big decision i.e trying it on a human...("You've got to do what you got to do")...So not worrying about the outcome(As Lord Krishna said) I geared up for the challenge and chose my myself as the test charge(it made me lose my 2 marks in 12th board).

The only other thing burning apart from the candle was the question "What happens when a spoon is heated?"(It is obvious for some big minds reading this blog that anything thats heated gets hot but my mind works ahead...The only doubt I had was whether spoon is a good/bad conductor of heat).

So the experiment started with the spoon placed firmly above the flame for 2 minutes..The time had come....I decided to touch the spoon on my arm...With a retarding acceleration the spoon began to descend on to my arm...Countdown had begun and just when it was about to blastoff my sixth sense fearing a mishap decided to divert the spoon to my brother's arm.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah was the word uttered by my brother as he fell off his chair and later by me when my mom lashed at me(just like a film's hero who after seeing the body of his beloved and another person with a knife full of blood lashes at him and leaves the beloved dying...as if saying "how the hell can you kill him he was my target")...So the experiment ended with the conclusion that "A Man's scream has more priority than that of rodent's so dont experiment without them".........

"All's well that Ends well"

We reached the campus and the registration desk.I had brought 2 photos and even reminded the 2 geniuses to get them.While Mel brought(as he has his own studio) Chugh forgot.Even one of my photographs were refused.Chugh got very happy about it(The same happiness that he got when I entered the black zone which will come later).After completing the half registration we left for the orientation.

A black fat creature with great oratorial skills named "Swapan" came for orientation who gave us the program details::

Lab classes (9 a.m - 12 noon)

Theory classes (1.30 p.m - 4.30 p.m)

Lab Tests,Theory Tests,Online Tests.He divided 180 students in 3 sections A,B and C.We 3 were in section A.

After the orientation we had a lecture about i.p addressing and subnet masking.Getting the corner seats on the first row under the A.C activated melatonin(sleeping hormone) secretion.With my neck engaged in SHM(nodding) and eyes and mind suggesting sleep, I survived the lecture and managed to come out unhumiliated(What an achievement!! sir jee)

Yes Mr Swapan loved to humiliate students and his phobia made all of us study.

After the orientation we headed straight to Jagat Farm(a market).Chugh and Me had a photo session where I was clicked in one of my strangest pose.Chugh was offered a job for Pirelli calendar but he refused it due to his love for baniyan(vest)(its a joke)....A.C needed life and we needed A.C...We rushed it to the electrician where it was declared dead...(He asked for unprecedented amount of Rs1000 which we unemployed could'nt afford)...So it was all over for us....Our only luxury was snatched.

Mel :What next ?

Me :RAMA(PG) will show us the way out...

Chugh:What about Suman?We can't break her heart.

Me :We'll have to...

Jai Sri RAMA

After buying half a kilo of glass putty for Rs 10(excess to seal Chugh's mouth) to fix the glass, removed for A.C we left for our momentary home..

We downloaded our baggages on to Mel's Ferrari(as Maruti 800's are sometimes called)..The Final job before farewell was fixing up the window...It was my job and Mel decided to join in later...Raja G was screaming in and constantly nagging "Jaldi karo"..The situation was really tense and the devil in me was saying "Punch him Param Punch him". But I managed to listen to the saint ( as I often do)...

So all job done.Just had to bid goodbye to Suman aunty....

Mel : Aunty hum jaa rahen hain....

(Her eyes refusing to see us off but we expressed our desire to meet Mr Sharma.She agreed and said he will come after dinner...After this there was a long wait....)

So finally after 1 hour of grand dinner Mr Sharma appeared.Dressed in VIP bonus vest(110cm) and dhoti Mr Sharma was looking like a cannibal but we gathered strength.....

Mel : Uncle hum jaa rahen hain.

Mr Sharma : Hmm..To jao fir...

Mel : Uncle wo paise...

Mr Sharma : Wo to mere pass nahin hain.Car ke installment me de diye..

Me : Hahahaha...

[A lot of conversation followed.Mel tried to flatter him,I tried to console him but all to no avail.He was adamant and told us to come for money after 1 month........Yeah Life is Cruel]

So we 3 losers drove back to our new home.2 dogs came to welcome us.They wanted to say something.I tried hard to understand but couldn't.So, I suggested Mel to run the car over them.Soon they realised their mistake and went away...

FOOd!! Yeah food...we got to see homemade food..amazing sight.The very sight made us forget all our adversities and we all jumped at it.I changed my clothes and put on my favourite chaddi(great ventilation)...everything was heavenly but....Mobile ringing...Gagan calling...No double minds on this...I switched off my mobile and continued with the feast...(Yeah he abused a lot afterwards but never mind)....

The 3 Musketeers on an ultimate safari (25 days of adventure) Chapter II

Home dirty home :

7th July was decided as our "PG pravesh" and we reached there listening to Chughish songs i.e Om mangalam,Tere bina and some senti ones too.We reached there at 7 p.m and uploaded (internet is getting into me) our baggages.Every thing seemed perfect and serene.....Just as we entered the room we were confronted with a plethora of problems.Water was seeping inside the room and toilet was slightly better than those maintained by Sulabh international.With all such great amenities, our only hope for survival was Mel's A.C.His 1.5 ton A.C was supposed to be our "Sankatmochak"(the troubleshooter).

At 9 p.m we broke into Suman aunty's house which was on the ground floor to order our supper.But she informed that the cook is not available as he had to leave for his village following the news of his relative's departure.She suggested herself as the cook and gave us the taste ride of his food.....We 3 sat down on the dining table and Chugh recieved a scolding for sitting on the master's seat....Karele ki sabzi with 1 bowl of daal(bitter guard is what Karela is called in english)

Chugh : Wow its really awesome.

Mel : Let me try

Me : I told you earlier ... the water here really tastes good.Its R.O,,, I guess.

We ate rotis with R.O water(I dont know whether it was e boiling+ but it really calmed our boiling temper) and tasted Karela in short span of 5 mins...

Forgetting the food we 3 went out for stroll where Chugh expressed his desire for a life partner and seeked advice for a healthy relationship.I got to know ki "Chugh ki aankhon me kuch hai" and "Jyoti ka koi bhai bhi hai".So enjoying the gossips we 3 entered our smelly room admiring the A.C.Suman aunty asked for advance (i.e 1/3 of total amount) and Chugh got excited and gave it to her without wasting anytime..

Our fully furnished room didn't provide us with bedsheets and pillows much to the worry of Chugh who remembered to get Axe Effect (the dark temptation) deo and set wet gels but couldn't remember to get toothbrush,toilet soaps,bedsheets and other irrelevant things.With 1 A.C and 3 guys... battle was always on the cards for the front bed.Chugh suggested himself on the first bed as he was the youngest.His demand was refused and I suggested 123(on the back).....Poor Chugh having no idea of my superpowers had to pay the price.So I settled for the first place and even managed to salvage some pride for Mel by giving him the second bed.God listened to Chugh's prayers and our A.C got screwed up.Our only luxury was snatched and we began doubting our stay here...

With Chugh down and out, Mel and me chatted till 5 a.m in the morning after which Mel suggested some sleep.With 3 hours of sound sleep we got ready for our course.

In the morning Mr Sharma(Suman's husband) said that they can't manage a cook and we said we can't manage suman aunty's delicacies.So he suggested that we eat outside and he will charge only for the stay..With all these things discussed just before breakfast,we couldnt gather courage to ask for breakfast and preferred eating out.

We landed at the nearest market and it was here that we came across mango shake's maestro.Rs 10 per glass with tutti fruity and raisin on top certainly sounded a profitable venture.We signed a deal with him and it became part of our daily routine.

Soon we left for campus and were totally unaware what surprises the day had in store for us............

Key characters ::::::

[Mel :Sahil Malhotra, Chugh :Sahil Chugh, Me:Param Saraf]

The SearCh For Suman AUnty

Chugh (a.k.a Raja G) suggested Suman aunty's PG as our 1 month's residence.Suman aunty had everything that we could wish for...(a good room,good food and security and that too on cheap rates as Chugh had said to us)..Raja G refused any talks on the issue and ordered us to abide by him...Our quest began soon and we left our home.But there was a problem ....

Chugh : Yaar ye suman aunty ka address to mere pass hai hi nahin....

Mel : Uhu Uhu Uhu Uhuan(Thats how typhoid patient abuses)

Me : So what do we do ?

(Raja G had some idea of location and he also knew the colour of the house.With sun shining and Chugh smiling I knew we were under some serious problem.)

Chugh : A White House spotted.Lets go.

Mel : Ohu UHu Ohuan (thats how typhoid patient says "Jo bole so nihaal" )

(We asked Mohan (the caretaker of White House) about Suman aunty but all he did was advertise his own PG(RAMA PG).We took his number and left.Infrared waves was playing its role and took Mel with it.)

Me : Mel are u okay?

Mel : I am fine but need some rest.Go now I can take care of myself.I think we are at the wrong place and perhaps that house there is our destiny(He pointed his finger at the building and collapsed)

(With Mel down with heat stroke cum typhoid and Chugh down with stupidity I knew its one man's army.I did as Mel suggested and Mel's intuition guided us to the right place.Chugh knocked the door and a lady dressed in saree came to open the door)

Chugh :Yahaan koi Suman aunty rehti hai jinke husband ka tent house hai? (Those were Chugh's magical words)

(She answered in the affirmative and we all felt as if we had won the battle and were totally unaware of what was to come....)
