Morning Role Plays!

1. After the grand success of Shiva-Shakti motors: Adinath motors, Mahoba road, before star of David, the temple of goddess Kaali.

2. First, one of them invites me to play.

3. I tell him that i need to do my everyday bowling practice as I had a very limited time.

4. As I begin practicing: I observe a bowler with a shaved head: a fast bowler. Then, a familiar, tall guy approaches. I had assumed he was in college but he says he’s in school.

5. Dialogue:

AK: Do you live near Mahoba road?

AS: No.

AK: I saw you near Gurudwara.

AS: Yes, I went there on the occasion of 551st Guru Poorab.

( in his mind: why does he pretend to not know me? I clearly remember him seeing me on helipad and he has been coming here for many days.)

Which is your favourite actor?

( I asked him that because he was acting like Krish in the first meeting)

AK: None. I am my own favorite.

AS: Any favourite movies?

AK: No, but I do have favorite cricketers: Virat for example and AB Devilliers.

AS: Which standard are you studying in?

AK: passed tenth, now in eleventh: 94.8 percent marks.

AS: What’s the meaning of ‘panache?’

AK: I have heard that word for the first time.

AS: What’s the meaning of ‘denunciation?’

AK: (with palpable irritation): let me play for now.

AS gets back to bowling. AK is called to bowl. On very first ball the batsman hits in the leg and ball goes outside. The boys go looking for it but come after a long time. Mysterious reasons.

AS continues to ball. 40 balls. 15 hits.

As thinks to himself:

Why did this guy who acted like Krish when Anuj was also introduced pretend to not recognise you until you visited Gurudwara? It’s what Kshetragya is about. An MVM student.

He wanted me to field for him. I said no because I had limited time to ball. His bowling and pronunciation can both be improved. He could have been truthful about having seen me first on helipad.

The Nation Needs to No!

1. I had a nice meal after arranging utensils in kitchen and throwing the wet garbage out for pigs. Tucked in the quilt which reminds me of Bangalore and days when I was a middle middle class guy: I need to ask:

2. Should the city, state and country be run by obese leaders like: Ambani, Modi, Trump, Kim Jong Ung and Shi Jinping or it should be handed over to fit people like Milind Soman and Tiger Shroff?

3. I need(not ‘want’) to know: what happened to the fast track hearing of the sexual assault case against Gayatri Pariwar head Dr. Pranav Pandya. I need to know because according to a news published in Dainik Bhaskar: which was more than 3 months ago: it was in the fast track and verdict was to be passed soon. If my jerking off immediately becomes local, national and international news: my asking about the credibility of justice system of India and/or Dainik Bhaskar: a reputed newspaper here, should also make some news as well!

4. I only need one of the two things: if he’s found guilty: let the drama run for a month on national television : like it did for Ram Rahim Insaan and if he’s innocent: since Gayatri Mantra must have cleansed all his sins and made his hair dark : those who accussed him: the kitchen girl and party should be investigated thoroughly and the investigation should take at least as much time and space as Sushant case took.

5. I wonder if Sushant went to the same heaven as Kafka and Dylan went to or some higher heaven. Only philosophical problem is whether to commit suicide. Existentialism frees you up immediately. You need to die only once to realize that you are an immortal and can’t be killed. Then you’re free to dream individually or collectively.
