Today I went to HDFC branch to change my address for correspondence, then went to Susmit’s home and registered for my brother’s friend, Amit. Thanks to Susmit both, my brother and his friend, could register via his Credit Card.

I have started reading “Kite Runner”, recommended by Jeetu. I hope its a good book. I then went to Aditya’s home at 5.30pm, but Aditya himself was not at home. He was having his classes at Velingkar. Actually, I never told him that we would meet at his home before going for dinner. Sunil came afterwards at 6 but then he had to leave early to some other place. Viraj was late and reached at 6.30pm. Aditya was last to come. Meanwhile we watched Mumbai Indians vs Deccan Chargers. It was frustrating to see MI losing wickets regularly in the later half of the innings. After watching them lose the match we decided to leave. Kiran and Susmit had already arrived at “Katta”. We joined joined them soon and we had great laugh for the half an hour we spent there, thinking about the fun we had during the Picnic. The “call” during the return journey was the talking point :D

After much contemplation we decided to go Food –In. We saw the Leopold Cafe & Bar on our way to Food In(“Ohh, Hech ka te!!!”, was my reaction). Food in “Food-In” was great, albeit non-veg. Maja aa gayee…… While returning, Viraj, Aditya and I walked all the way from Regal to Churni Road station. Return journey was much more interesting than start. Some discussion on past Picnics and new plans about new ones. Quote of the day came from Viraj at that time, on the issue of Girls coming to Picnic with us,

“जबाबदारी घेणे अणि जबाबदारीचे ओझे घेणे हयात फार मोठा फरक असतो”

Hope some of my dear friends understand this, and change their opinion, after all things do change over time……

कुछ बिखरे सपने और आँखों में नमी है, एक छोटा सा आसमां और उम्मीन्दों की ज़मीं है, यूँ तो बहुत दोस्त है ज़िन्दगी मैं, पर जो खास है वाही पास नहीं है ....................

Sawai Ekankika’ 2013

So this year I completed a hat trick of watching the finals of Sawai . Like the previous 2 occasions, this too was a great experience. Most of the plays were good and the overall performance level was better than that of the 2012 finals. Most of the plays were based social issues like parenting, cynicism among the middle class, etc. Unlike the previous finals, not a single one was of romantic/love genre. Here is the list of finalists- Nat S. M. R. T. We missed this one as we were late. But Viraj's father told us, this was similar to the play " Natasamrat " but a modern version. Emotional Atyachar This was a story of an employee in an e-CRM firm which is hired by clients so that someone can communicate with their family. These clients are too "busy" with their work that they don't have time to speak with their wife/kids/parents. The agent/employee E26 slowly starts getting emotionally attached with his clients' families. Finally, when he is about t...
