My First Interview for Marriage Proposal

I was recovering from my viral fever & all hats of to my mom whose efforts had made me recovered so quickly. My platelet counts had gone below the standard mark & I had to take off from my office for almost 2 weeks. I informed my father about illness & requested if they can come for a while to take care of me. Since my mother is a heart patient so we generally avoid giving her shock or any such news which disturbs her. My father told her that we are going to Gurgaon for a while to meet Tinku & will stay for atleast 2-3days. (Tinku is my pet name, so don’t make a joke of it ok.) My mother was over surprised because my father hardly gets space/ time from his job. He loves his job more than my mother, so it was hard for my mother to swallow it so quickly. She had the only thought in her mind was of marriage proposal, she had been dreaming for my marriage for more than a year. Reality was hard for her to see as she got to know about my illness only when she arrived at m...

Greedy Plan......

Dear Readers, I am back after long illness which had made me weak, tiring & lazy....Although i was lazy before illness as well, but seems i had gone more lazy these days...............Anyways i was trying to put this story in to my blog for a while but was not able to get this into the words.......At last i am posting this today......this story is a funnier one & i am sure it will bring a ting of smile on your face & widen your cheeks........Hehhehehehehe It was a summer of Year 1997, i was through with my 10th standard board examinations & there was a gap of few days before i join the coaching classes for 11th standard. On the other side my sister was through with her 12th standard exams. Since she had done her 10+2 from a college in Punjab, where at that time Punjabi was a mandatory subject to pass through the exams & sis was very poor with the subject........I hope my sis don't read my blogs else she is going to kill me............ Twist in the story...

When a father looses his self respect.............

Winters were in the verge to end & spring was going to start..........This is the time when i was living with my friends Anshu & Arnab at Lajpat Nagar, its been very tough time travelling every day from Delhi to Gurgaon & then coming back in the evening. I use to start from Delhi by 7:45am & by 9:00pm i reach back. It was a Saturday & saturdays were always good due to less traffic & chaos. I reached early that day & was sitting on my room chatting with Arnab. I got a call - it was unknown number from area code - 0120, i thought for a while, its from either Noida or Ghaziabad. I picked up the call & the person on the other side said - Namaste Son, I am JOJO's Father. JOJO is one of the live stories of my life, which turned me upside down which made Year 2007 as deadliest. Will blog the full coverage of this story separately.  Jojo's Father voice was looking like a person who had been lost everything in a battle & was almost about to cry o...

Morning Walk..................

Tring..................Tring............ My cell phone ringing, its none other than Maahi, she is a sweet friend of mine who wakes me up in most of the mornings these days. Thanks a lot Maahi for waking me up....... My lifestyle had changed a lot since last couple of years, i don't need reasons to be lazy. For last couple of years my eating habits & sleeping habits had degraded a lot. It all started when Myself, Anshuman & Arnab use to live together at Lajpatnagar, there were hardly any mornings when we ate the breakfast. There were very few dinners which we prepared at home, most of the the time our dinners were either from Domino's, Pizza hut, Slice of Italy & Many more......................... Anshuman is lucky, he got married & has a sweet loving wife - Shallu............. I believe she can be a good diet advisor. She had brought drastic turnover in Anshuman's eating habits & lifestyle. Now its been very rare when we eat Pizza, all thanks t...

Kindness is a very big thing

  Today was sad day for me, as one of my close friend was hurt by my remarks & later for the whole day i felt how should say sorry. I was supposed to meet Arnab for Book fair, pragati maiden at 2pm. I was unable to leave from home due to some reason, this made me more sad & irritated for the things which were really not under my control. Later in the evening i took a hot bath & logged off from my home to Dwarka sec-9 Metro station. I put a message to Arnab that i am coming to CP & lets have dinner together to end the day on the good note. After a while i called him to meet me at CP by 7pm & this time i confirmed very well that i am on the way. I reached Rajeev Chowk well by 7pm & in a while we met at Pallika bazar Gate#1. We almost took a full round of inner circle but unable to find the restaurant where we can sit calmly & have dinner. So we moved on the outer circle after a while, where we found a small hoarding of Nirula's Potpourri. W...

My Last Train of 2009

Dear Readers, Today is 4th day of the year 2010 & i am traveling in Kalka-Delhi Shatabdi after my supplier visit in Mohali. Well end of year 2009 will be in my remembrance, which might be fun story to hear about which will surely bring smile on your faces. Date: 31.Dec.2009 Being a last day of the month, being a last of the year, my day was pretty long! Early in the morning our business unit head came to my desk & told me about a customer complaint which had been raised by our marketing head. This complaint was more related to the packaging of our parts, where the secondary packaging had broken during sea transit. After discussing this problem with my business head i rushed to nearest freight station at Patparganj along with one of our materials buyer to review the incoming packaging from supplier at port. We reached at around 12:00 noon & it took us around 2 & half hours there to review & analyze the problem. By the time i reached back office, it was already 4pm....

A Ride Without Helmet

I am a regular visitor to Pragati Maiden, Delhi for all major fairs like - Book Fair, Print Pack, Aahar, Trade Fair organized by ITPO (India Trade Promotion Organization). Trade fair 2008 will remain in my memories for long. I started from Gurgaon at around 12noon, on the way to Pragati Maiden i collected the tickets from one of my friends living at Sarojini Nagar. There were two more friends who were joining me, Arnab & Anshuman. I reached Pragati Maiden by around 2pm & parked my Bullet Electra 5S at Supreme Court Advocate parking. Expecting this as a Supreme court advocate parking i left my brand new Helmet unlocked with the bike. I got a call from Arnab who was waiting for me at Gate no.4, which was around 500mtrs away. We both met at Gate no4 & started moving towards entrance. It was a Sunday, so as expected there was huge crowd ahead of us. Slowly & Steadily we entered inside, later Anshuman joined us & we visited couple of stalls. After roaming for an hou...
