Writeup for Srijan Sandhilya - extended version


I never knew the word limit in the writeups on BITSAA site..then i came to know it was just 500 characters but by that time i had written this writeup for my BUDDY srijan...I wanted him to read this so couldnt find any better option than to post it on my blog. If you dont know srijan(what!! you don't know srijan..) i suggest you to click on X button on the top-right corner of your screen(top left in case you are a linux user) as this post is very much classified and none of your concern.So here it goes-

Sreejan(or Srijan..i am still not clear about this thing seeing the variations on facebook and various other sources ..newys chuck it) Sandhilya aka Jhandu….I have known him since the first day on campus itself. He used to be my wingie room no. 309. I was in 304. His first roomie was a sardar who left the college to seek admission in some college in Punjab(what a loser he was to miss on befriending and learning from such a MAGNANIMOUS person) The first time we met he seemed more or less a typical bihari(though he is marwadi by origin) with that accent. Never knew this guy was no ordinary guy like most of us and that some time down the line he is going to prove his real self as an indigenous genius. And even I wasn’t wary of his mastery over sarcasm.
Following some 2 months of lonely nights, he was roomy with the alter ego of gaurav bharadwaj, saurabh bharadwaj( I was there that night to witness them make out ).His most activities include mooting current affairs, boasting of his B knowledge, exploring past facebook statuses of his friends to find somewhere to fit in his ironical comments to make the situation a complete farce, Sleeping with dogs(literally dogs), hagna(this time too literally constipation), savoring chicken(or any other form of bones and meat studded over them),framing jokes about chirag,kicking people out of his room whenever he feels like opening DC and do something nasty(and glutinous), managing fake profiles on facebook and many more harami things you can think of doing in BITS. Still no matter how much of a smug he is..he is really a buddy(he will not agree to this but he is and he knows this).This was proved when on my Birthday when he and gaurav brought an eight-pound cake . I just can’t forget the moment that day. I was so much touched by that moment of torpor and diabetic sweetness that I had never expected from both of them. There are a lot of things that could be learnt from him...most palatable being swimming. Others being modesty, smugness, sybaritism and how to abstain from girls whom you like..no matter how close she was to you or  held the same post in your high school times... just to be sure that you are not at all predictable.
Now no matter how evil or caustic he is/was towards me, i would remember him as one of the most important brick in the wall of my BITSian life. There have been times that I was irate at him because of the times he made me embarrassed and conjectured in front(or mayb on phone) of some of the BITSian gals but still the fun times and confabs we had are more than just to make me pliable of all my cantankerousness.
Hope the fun continues in 8th semester so that he is screwed in his A8 CDCs as much as I am in my A7s(aah just kidding..hope he rocks them just like he did In all CP courses).My comprees start in 4 days still I am writing for him just coz I don’t want to lose this opportunity to banter on him( You won’t find many such opportunities in his case).

Movie(s) Review - James Bond 007


The name is Bond…James Bond!!

Hello people! I have been a bit dormant in posting since past few days(months to be succinct), well nothing vitriolic about blogging, I just have been out of business(and town) and my eyes were most of the times glued to Cricket(India Won.!! Yipee..). But here I am posting another thing that I have been upto these days and that might interest you. And this time it’s about a sleuth. A well known contumacious sleuth created by a World war II veteran ‘Ian fleming’.I have been watching all the 22 Bond movies(thanks to APOGEE 2011,BITS LAN and ‘noWonder’). Bond, as you all know, has also been associated in framing lingo in almost every other college around.. as noun and adjective “abe kya bond admi hai” or ”bondpana” or “bondpanti” or “bondgiri”. For more (official) Information about James Bond, you should pay a visit to his wiki page and for the unofficial review, you may carry on reading this post.

Well the Bond Movies are just a bunch (a little more than a Score I mean,22 when reckoned) of action(and mirth) packed movies featuring hottest actresses of the contemporary times as the bond girls and some quirky contraptions called bond gadgets. And no need to mention the splendid cars, mostly Bentley, Aston Martin and BMW loaded with cutting edge technologies and automated guns, missile launching systems and enhanced GPSes(in the latter editions).Bond works as a professional secret agent for MI6, a british agency who gives him the official license to kill anyone anywhere anytime in the whole world. As depicted in one of the movie, he was married once but his wife was killed and since then he never married again. He only woos and romances with on an average 3(taking only integral values in consideration) girls per movie (The most beautiful one I think would be the bond girl in “From Russia with love”).The other protagonists in the movie series are M(the code name of the head of MI6 and who is rather an officious person), Money Penny(the assistant who is in desperate love with James bond but has to remain satisfied with the light flirting that bond does with her) and some other characters with varying appearances.

With the enemy’s rancor to decimate nations(and sometimes the whole planet itself like in Moonraker) and bond flaunting his sleight to deal with all the trying circumstances with his sangfroid. Some movies also feature various eerie villain’s entourage like some of them have midgets (like in The man with the golden gun), some have giants(like in Moonraker) and some even have pudgy korean figures(like in Goldfinger).Most of the versions focus on the covetous bad guy’s plans to obliterate people sometimes because of personal malice and the other times for some financial or political gain. The genocide being planned by the bad guy majorly employs atomic or chemical weapons.

My favorite movie amongst all these would happen to be “Goldfinger”.The actor starring as bond being my favorite of all, Sean Connery. The eponym is coz of the main villain ‘Auric Goldfinger’ whose plans are not much sinister as is the case in most other bond movies like to annihilate scores of people or dropping an atomic bomb. He is just a Gold magnate(and smuggler) and plans to pollute radioactively the gold reserves of US so that his gold reserves gain value and he could ostensibly be the richest industrialist in US by selling gold at exorbitant prices.
One of the editions, "Octopussy" was shot in india with kabir bedi being the only Indian actor ever to star in a james bond flick. He was starred as a villain’s mate in the movie. It houses the tale of james bond trying to salvage a bomb being deployed by a belligerent terrorist ‘Khan’. Bond romances with a blonde girl(a blonde bond girl :D) named Octopussy who is a princess and lives on a secluded island where no males are allowed .She is also a friend of ‘Khan’. In a scene in this movie, Bond camouflaged himself as a crocodile (I know it’s hard to believe but he actually did) to sneak into that island. The rest of the story followed and eventually had a happy epilogue as always.

The 23rd edition which maybe the last one, as I expect because all the novels have been adapted into movies is to be released in 2012 stars “Casino Royale” fame Daniel Craig and the movie title is “Bond 23”. I am definitely going to watch it the first day first show(possibly if i am out of this village by that time) as bond movies promise to be glutinous with no revulsion.

Hello folks!!

Congrats to all of you for the splendid success of India in the world cup 2011. And after hearing the rumors of Sachin's retirement, I can just say that i wasn't being agnostic(yes! coz after all he is a god) in my blog about the world cup(you may scroll down my blog archives and read that in case you havent). But still lets hope that he stays for a jiffy, may be just to complete his ton of centuries to etch it in his annals and also most importantly so that every Indian can boast about it.
Anyway, on some requests and recommendations, I have again compiled some eclectic statuses which i would like to share with my blog's visitors to give them another reason to smile and rejoice the feat! Enjoy Reading!! :)
