My Ancestors

I found today the tree list of my great grand dads......This one i came across this year while i was in Haridwar where a person has been storing all the details of my family and in that case many other clans ......He took out our family tree and wrote down these names ............

So uptil here the person could trace back my family tree ...he could have gone more back but then we didnt have so much time to stay there .......so we gave him our address and asked him to post the complete family tree......lets see when it comes .....


I dont think many people will be knowing their ancestors .....it feels really gud when u first time happen to come across such huge information from the past .......really awesome ......................


There i even came to know that i am from a clan called Tugnait which started out in Rajasthan near Bikaner ....but none of our people are there still the whole clan over such long period of time is spread out all over India ......I could never have imagined that there was so much history in my family also ........but its great once u know it .....It gives u a feeling that u r close to ur ancestors also .......

Ali Bhai's B'Day at Ananya .......

As i woke up yet another day at 12 i saw that my sis and mom were getting ready to watch Singh is Kingg ...so i also joined them ......ii between we took a break and had lunch .......again the movie continued......

the movie was fine not so great just the typical Akshay Kumar comedy types with a lot of Punjabi punches put in ......As i was just planning out the day ahead Ali Bhai calls me and says he is coming to my house ......he comes writes some hindi movies which i had downloaded recently and we leave and go to Adi's House ......there we check out his Home theater system ,and see some of the scenes of Bachna Ae Haseeno ....

Finally we get out of there and on Adi's car go to the Beach our fav spot Sea Pearl .......there Vijay joins us for a while and leaves .....I met an old friend Phani ......and then Ali Bhai's friends or i should say would be relatives came to wish him in advance .......AS we were chatting the climate changed suddenly and it was a very beautiful scene of the clouds and the vast ocean .......we took some pics there ....and finally we left from there by 7 ......we dropped Adi and his car and went to take Zeeshan's car and go to his hatcheries .....and we had asked Vijay and Aditya to come after us with all the food for the night ......we reached there by 8 or 8:30 ......Zeeshan showed me the complete place and all the functions which take place over there ......They had constructed 2 rooms for staying one had a new LCD screen and other had a computer ......By the time these guys arrived we were watchin TV ..........We had our dinner Chicken Biryani for Hyderabad House ......Had frooti also later .......


We thought of seeing Bachna Ae Haseeno but the dvd player didnt allow us to so we had to see Kismat Konnection ...it wasnt so bad also but a bit boring i should say .......well at 12 Adi started banging Ali Bhai ........then we sang the Bday song and ate the pastries which these guys had brought ...after having that we planned to check out the Beach .....It was simply like a private beach and in the night time with the light of moon behind clouds it was an awesome scene .......Vijay started saying that why did we have to go to Goa when we have such a great place in our backyard ........we stayed there for abt 15 mins and came back to the room .....it was around 1:15 .....and Vijay started showing signs of going into deep sleep ......And we knew once this guy dozes off theres no chance he will get back to his senses until he has slept for 5 to 6 hrs ......so we tried really hard to keep him awake and were watching the olympics women s 10000m swimming marathon .......it was like these girls were swimming for 2 hrs continuous ........really gr8 i felt if i could ever be able to swim like that .......and by the time it ended Vijay was just abt to enter his dream world but we pulled him out and Ali's car had also returned .......so we started our journey back to Vijays house it was a 20 km ride along the beach road ..it was really cool me and ali in his car and vijay and adi on vijays bike ......Ali bhai playing his music in the car at full volume and the clean road and a slight vision of the coast as it was night ........Here Ali dropped me and he went home .....Vijay ,Adi and me started chatting again and by the time we stopped it was 3:30 in the morning ...so we thought of sleeping .....I set an alarm of morning 7 but i think it didnt wrk or it worked but i unconciously stopped it and went back to sleep ....next i got a call from my mom at 11 asking me to come home thats when i got up and finally Vijay dropped me and Adi at our respective houses........


Lets see what happens now in the evening .....




So in the Evening as usual we gather at Ravi's Place to play football ....we played for a while and went to Noodles point thats also routine stuff....and finally everyone Dispersed .... Then at night again Ali bhai me and Adi went to Jackfrost and had ice creams and came back home ......................

Yet Another Day......

As days just pass by i once again feel like writing some thing in the blog ....but nothing special is happening now a days so here is just what are the things i did today .....

As i was in a deep state of sleep i hear the alarm of my cell ring beside me .....unconsciously i pick the cell and stop the alarm ....then slowly try to focus on the time ....it was 8:00 in the morning .....i again fall asleep ...then i am awaken by Adi(Aditya) as he gets up from sleep at 10:32 ......we both get up and get out of Vijay's house and disperse to our respective homes ......

I come home and see that my mom and sis are watching the movie Kismat konnection i just lay in between them on the bed ....and again fall asleep ......then i get up at around 2 in the afternoon .....brush and go on for lunch .....Watch TV for a while and then sit in front of the computer ......As usual Orkut,download,songs keep me busy on the comp ......

As evening comes i get messages from friends to come for playing football but due to the encounter yesterday my legs were completely bruised ...so i decide to not go for playing today ......I am still on the comp ...It was around 7:30 when my friend Gautham calls me and asks me to pick him up from railway station .....he also asked me to bring him some food item .....so i get him a tandoori chicken parcel from Kebabri and then pic up Rajesh and go to the station .....there we meet Avinash(Civil) just a coincidence .......then we Santosh(Pilli) also comes....


We all leave and go to the complex where Gautham has to catch another Bus to Srikakulam and then we disperse ...i go to meet Vijay and have some food near his house in Egg Restaurant ....I was expecting for another night out plan but Vijay today didnt seem very much interested and he had already canceled the plan with Aditya so i also came back home without doing much .......

I Am A Traveller Now.....

The results are out .I can now say that am a Computer science Engineer now.It was a very long journey of four years and all that i did was to travel ..travel and travel.....
I say travel so many times cause my college is 2 hrs ride away from home and i used to go daily and come back home .so it was a lot of traveling these 4 years .

But its all over now no more college .Yet the Traveling thing is not leaving me.It all started in the month of February when my college were still going on .I had to leave for Punjab on the day of Holi.It was a short trip but got extended due to my Grand moms untimely demise .I had to stay there in Punjab for around 20 days .

Traveling all of Punjab from one place to another meeting many relatives .Got back to college and finished the remaining work of Project and gave my exams .

Exams ended on 3rd and my parents Booked my tickets for a trip to Chirimiri (Place in Chatisgarh) for the 7th.Everything was set but God had different plans for me .

My friends had planned a trip to Goa.I couldn't miss this chance of a lifetime.So changed my schedule and went of to Goa on the 6th.It was a hell of a trip enjoyed it to the max.

Came back to Vizag on 13th totally tired and with no proper sleep .But had to leave the next day morning to Chirimiri and this time alone .Went there met up with my Cousins after a long time almost 6 years.enjoyed the time with them remembered our old meetings .Was kind of a reunion .And Chirimiri toh the best place on Earth .cause thats the place where i was Born.

Finally the trip ended on 20th when we had to catch our train for Bilaspur.There in the scorching heat i realised for the first time why people die in the summer of heat .as long as i was in the bus it was fine but when i stood in the sun just for a minute my whole skin started to burn .The sunlight was kind of piercing the skin .If i stood there for another 5 minutes was sure of getting Fainted .But it didnt happen.There we stayed at my moms old friends place till the evening then caught our train and reached home on 21st morning.


So through all this traveling the best part has been that i got to see all different parts of India.Totally different terrains and geographical topography. First Punjab with the lush green fields .Then Goa almost like Kerala the interiors and the beaches and Finally Chattisgarh the Hottest place i have ever been in was all barren and deserted .


Lets see what is in store for me next .I have to go to pune for sure then maybe to chennai and also a one or two day trip to Himachal for my cousins marriage .There is surely going to be a lot of traveling.

All this has made me a Traveller .

Last Day At College..............(What a RELIEF!!!!!)

Its been a looooooong time since i've posted anything.And as u can see the post before this was abt my first day at college this year ................................

After that day my life became so busy and fast that i didnt even get the time to sit and think over the happenings.I wont be able to recall all that i had been through in this period of my life.So now i start again ............................


Today as usual we boarded the train(EMU) for our college.Walked the distance from garvidi station to college in the scorching heat.It felt like the Hottest day i've ever experienced in my life.It was a 20 minute long walk.

We reached college canteen.Avnish ,Sarma and Me .The tension of revising the subject which we came to write was always on the back of my head.We took some drinks and as we drank them we were speaking of the how our lives were going to change after today.Sarma about his Swiss venture ,Avnish abt Wipro and Me abt Syntel.Thinking abt our future lifes was making us forget all tensions at the time.

Cause all these years that we spent in our college we only dreamt abt the life after college.Not even a single day did we think of our days in college.

Each and everyday that we went to college was like entering Hell.(Though we rarely went to college is another issue).Today was something different.We revised our subject and went to write the exam.

After coming out every other person was looking so lit up and happy like i had never seen them in their lives ever.It was all over everyone knew.Though they never spoke about it but i knew that each and everyone hated our college for what it had done to them but never got the guts to speak it out like we did .

Then started the maddening photo session as each fellow with their cameras started picking pics of each and everyone ......It went on and on and we got fed up and left everyone and caught an RTC bus to vizag.The temperatures today were really high and i had dehydrated completely.

But even then i couldnt believe that finally the day had come.Now a whole new era is going to start.So lets hope for the best .

First day at college ........

This last Friday was my first day at college this year.It was as usual but this time the things we went to do had some how executed out the way we thought .This was a bit astonishing cause in my college we can never expect things to go in our favor but this time it did.So hope that the remaining time left of my college life also goes by happily.

Blame Us

Making Of Blame Us.................Literally Blame Us......

So after the grueling and tiring day at sea i was back home sleeping happily.When my friend calls me in the morning at 10:00 AM and asks me a favor.

Venky(Artist) called to ask if i would be willing to give my home for some of the editing sessions for our upcoming movies.I was ok with it and asked why wasn't he doing it at Vinays Place as usual.HE told that Vinay had gone out of station thats why i being was bugged.I told him alright and asked him when he was coming.He said by 1:00 pm .so i got up got ready.

Even before Venky arrived Abhijeet(Bubby) arrived at my place .He told me that Venky was coming to edit a new movie they had been working on .I didnt know about the new video.I was told by Venky that Shekar(Shaky) was doin some video.But didnt know that Venky would be doing it with him.

So Venky also arrived at around 1:30.I inquired about Shaky he said that he was on his way .Until then i was briefed about the new video .And i was screened the video.I liked it but some scenes i didnt understand ...i mean i couldnt understand their need to be in the video.It was just like exaggerating the scenes.

What ever Venky said it was all Shaky's idea so i didn't comment anything. After Shaky also arrived with his friend Sricharan(Srichu) the musician.I understood at that moment that some new music will be created again like before .They brought with them all the speakers and amplifiers and guitar.We set the system according to the needs and the session started .










They started going thru each scene and composing different tunes for that scene.Venky had already edited the Video part of the video only audio part had to be edited.And when Shaky arrived he asked me to narrate for the video.At first i thought either Shaky didn't know me and my voice or he was out of his mind.But even Venky didn't say anything about this idea of me narrating so i also thought i should give it a try who knew if it could help.


So Venky and Srichu were preparing the audio and Shaky sat down to write the dialogues which i had to narrate.He finished it all in 10 minutes or even less.I then practised them with Shaky giving him an idea of how my voice would be .To my astonishment he was very pleased the way i spoke and said that it would exactly suite the video.I didnt know what to say so i also played along.


The whole evening we were mostly doing the music .By 7 pm it was done .So now my part came up .I had to narrate my lines.I started off and all the lines were recorded without taking any retakes or any kind of modulation.I never thought that it would be that simple.But some how i wasn't pleased with the work which i had produced but then everyone else were pleased so i didn't say anything.


After about 15 minutes all was done and now the grueling part of Venky started of editing all the audio parts at the right places in the video.Shaky had gone away to drop Srichu.




By the time he returned most of the editing part was done.just some final touches were to be given.The music part had come out really well but i still had some doubts with my voice work.I felt that i could have done better than that or the video might do well with some other persons voice but then......

At around 9:30 Bubby came again he saw the video and was all praises about the voice work and the music and all of it.He was very pleased with how everythig had shaped up.So i didnt want to think any more about my narration.







Every thing had to be uploaded and sent by 12:00 so we finished it by 11:30 and uploaded a low quality one before and sent it to the IIT guys.

Everyone left from my home at around 11:45 and i was still working on uploading the better quality version.After it was done i too switched off and went to slpeep. My work for the day was done ..............

With The Eastern Fleet ..........

I've been busy all these days doing various stuff.Couldn't get the time to write in my blog.Last week was a real roller coaster ride started off with the tour of the Indian Navy's Eastern Fleet Family Day.All the ship from the port go into the sea about 60 km.Its a kind of show of the various feats that the navy ships are trained to do.And It take s up almost 12 hours of your day in the ocean .

So i started off from my house at 6:45 in the chilly atmosphere.I wore a overcoat and a helmet to keep me protected for the next 20 minutes that i had to drive up to my friends place in Naval Park.It was damn cold i could feel it in my hands and fingers which were not covered really cold.But maybe it was also a bit less cooler than the other days cause it was Bhogi day And the whole atmosphere was smoky smoky .

I reached his place by 7:15.And waited outside the main entry gate.Avnish came and told that our other friends Mandeep and Nikhil had also arrived and asked me to contact them.In the meanwhile he went off to attend to Our HOD Mr David and his family whom he had invited for todays adventure.

By the time he arrived i met up with Mandeep and Nikhil .We moved from there to the main entry point to the port.Many people were waiting already some were going in .We parked our Vehicles and Avnish's dad arrived in his car and escorted us all with him to the Main ship in which we were going to send the rst of the day.It was Nirupak.His Dad were the in charge of all the ships which left and entered the port.

There we were assigned to a sailor named Debonath who looked after all the things which we would be requiring for that day.He gave Avnish a white paper and asked him to write the names of all those who were boarding the ship.

We boarded and were escorted to the place where already our HOD and his family were sitting.They were a bit surprised upon seeing us all.His son Joy was very naughty and cute boy.He got along well with us all.Most of the time he kept us engaged with him.We were told that the ship will start by 9:30 .so we had a lot of time cause it was still 8:00 .



We were roaming on the ship getting familiar with it.It was not new for me cause i had been on many ships before so nothing new.For my friends and HOD it was a complete new feeling.By the time it was 9:30 we started to get bored .Then we got the news that ours will be the last ship to leave by 9:50.

Finally our ship started and a tug boat helped it to get aligned into the correct direction.so everyone stood up and wee seeing how the tug crashed into our ship from one side to turn it .So we were in motion finally.every one started takin Pictures from there camera and Cell phones.







I forgot to mention that All this time we were cursing our friend Avnish for not bringing his camera which he said he would.It was throughout our journey we kicked him and abused him.So i had to take pics from my cell phone which doesnt give any nice quality Pictures but just to remember the trip it was enough.

So after 15 minutes we were in the blue ocean our ship was sailing at 7 knots/hr that was approximately 15km/hr .It wasn't swaying a lot but just a slight notion of it was there .The commentator was constantly filling us with the details of some interesting facts about the Navy and the ships .

We were following a ship and maintaining a distance of exactly 1 km between .And similarly in front of us were 20 other ships in one straight line heading towards the middle of the Bay Of Bengal maintaining a distance of 1 km between each one .






The wind was simply awesome .We climbed the highest point on the ship and as we saw the ship just heading for the Horizon splashing the wast amounts of water .It was such a beautiful sight .You should be there to experience it.Almost like the effect that must have seen In titanic when Jack and Rose extend their arms out.It was almost like that.We enjoyed every bit of it.






After sometime everyone was moved out of that area.and we went off t the Wardroom where all the Captains have their food and drinks and refreshments.It was empty except the steward who kept coming and going now and then.We took out Appy's for each and drank it sitting on the sofa.

Oh what a feeling .





The wardroom made us realize what sea sickness was.Cause when u r outside in the open u can see the ship oscilate with the outside surroundings but when u r inside in a packe droom only ur sense of balance intimates you about the oscillations of the ship.That creates a real awkward feeling in you.So thats how i experienced my first ever Sea Sickness .When ever we felt that it was becoming more .We came out in the open .

For breakfast we were given a Piece of bread and Bonda and 2 bananas .But we ordered for some,e extra cake and biscuits.So most of our time was spent just roaming in the ship taking some Pictures and attending to the needs of our HOD.

Finally in the afternoon when everyone got tired and the ship didnt stop to go i felt like taking a nap.But then realised as i was lost in thoughts that nap can be taken everywhere so was watching the sea and the place where our ship was being beaten with the ocean waves again and again and the white foam which it constantly produced after each splash .It was very Cool.




In the evening at the time of sunset again everyone gathered on the deck to take some final pictures of the Setting sun .We also joined in the crowd .





As we were entering the port again it was dark and only the lights of the ships around us and the port lights were visible which in itself was a breath taking view.



We were all out by 7:30 and i headed towards home after a short trip with my friend to a place which was closed .

The trip was really one of a kind can never forget such an experience in my life.It could have been much better if instead of our HOD some more of our friends had joined but then everything in this world is not in our hands whats in our hands should be made use of.................

In the Studio..........

Yesterday again started of with a kick start.I had no plans for the day but as i logged in my yahoo messenger saw my classmate Pranupa online after many days .Asked her how were the marriage preparations going on .She said she wanted to meet me to give me the wedding card .So i fixed up a place to meet at my friend Rajesh's place.

I got ready and left.She arrived at Rajesh's(Bakka) place with her friend Monalisa .Gave us the cards and was leaving to go to another of our friends house.But she didnt have the exact idea of her house.So Rajesh and Me took them till there .From there i went to my friend Santosh(Pilli's) place and waited for them to arrive there .After handing over the card to Santosh they had to go to a far of place so I asked them to take my bike for their convenience.They agreed and I took my friend Santosh's Kinetic and came back home.

In the evening went to Vinay's(Bunty) place where Rajesh and Santosh were already waiting.As we were chatting we got the call from Pranupa to take the bike .Santosh and I went and brought back the bike to Vinay's place where Rajesh was waiting to drop Santosh's kinetic at his home .We did all that and dropped Rajesh at his place and thought of checking how our editing team was doing.

So went of to Vinay's(not the same Vinay as above) place where Venky(Artist) and SriCharan(Srichu) were working hard at composing some music for the video .And also Tejaswi(guru) was there just fooling around.After some time Avinash also came to get his Jerkin and to have a look at the proceedings.We were just sitting there chatting.It was looking like kind of a Recording studio of sorts .U can see the clip and make out for urself.




After some time Guru and Avinash left and Vinay and Ebhendra(Ebhi) came there.I Left from his house at around 9:15 and came home .

A really Sad Ending ...........

So after the shoot yesterday i went to a friends Birthday party (Shashank).Most of his classmates and our old batch was there Harsha ,Pavan ,Mahesh , Ritesh and Chitti .We spent a very gud time at Royal fort celebrating his BDay .


But as we reached to the end of the party i got a message from Avinash that our friend Prashant was no more in this world.I was taken aback at first.Read the message once again to look at the name of the person.I couldnt remember a clear picture of anyone named Prashant .Then suddenly it dawned upon me about whom my friend was telling so i couldnt bare the thought that this could happen to Prashant and called Avinash.


He said that Prashant had passed away in a car accident in Goa .He had been there with other of his classmates on IT tour.As soon as he finiished his sentence all the memories of prashant came back to me.He was my classmate in school but only for a year.Then i met him again during my Engineering days we even celebrated his birthdays .He used to come with us to movies and some times to play football.Really Cool person but slightly worried about his stating to loose hair.But some time ago we had lost contact .I had not spoken to him from quite some time .Maybe he was busy with his college people.But such a sudden demise was never expected.


I dont know why these things happen in our lives.Its just sad very sad.

I never know how to react to these situations.Cause there is nothing more left to do about it.Everything comes to an end about the person who has passed away.Left u in the middle of ur life's journey.what remains are only their memories and just memories .Now it depends upon you for how long u can hold on to these memories or just let go of them cause they just bring you face to face with one of life's harshest realities.

All i can do now is pray for his well being where ever he is and that he will be missed amongst us not always but in most of the situations which comprises of our lives.

And Pack Up...........

So today again we had to shoot some scenes .I went to Vinay's home.Where i found Contra already waiting outside.We both went in where Artist was already working on the system .We were just planning our next sequences when Bubby smsed and said that he was waiting at PCC(Pastrys Coffee & Conversation).We all went there .There we decide to first shoot another scene in the AU college .So again had to shift.

Upon reaching AU Contra had to hand over his bike at home so i went withh him and came back to AU.We were asked to come up to the main AU ground.There again Me and Contra helped in holding the Butter Paper and the scene was done in abt half an hour.

In the Mean time Vijay had reached PCC .So we moved on again to PCC .There we bought some stuff to eat cause it was going to be a part of the scene where they showed us eating in the video.But instead of concentrating on the acting part everyone were more interested in finishing up the stuff that we had ordered.All in all we spent a whole lot of time over there taking the shot correctly.We payed the bill and moved on to Sea Shells for the next scene.


There Contra had to ride a bike with Bubby behind him.It took an ample amount of time for Contra to get the riding part correctly.somehow we did it and in between Zeeshan had also joined us .After this scene we took Vijays solo phone shot nearby and it was all done.The most part of the movie was done and was time to say Pack Up.


We all dispersed from there.Now all that is left is for artist to show his artistic skills during the editing and the narration part.So lets see how soon it is over with.All was over by lunch time so i am free now waiting for the final Product.

Making Of The Video Part 2

So it has started all over again .It has been some time since the last short movie i had acted in "The Green".This time again its the same crew with some additions in the acting side.It was one of the most hectic days which i went through in the past 4 or 5 months.Couldn't just rest for a long time today .Was busy the whole day in field work.


I was being told by Venky(Artist) to be ready for another short film that he was going to make.But it would be so soon i didnt expect.



It all started yesterday night Venky and I chatted on net where he gave me an overview of the plot and asked me to be ready by 8:00 A.M next morning .So i got up early since had to drop my sister at her college .came back home and started my yoga practice but was interrupted by an sms from Vinay to report at his house immediately.It was around 8:45 .So i stopped everything started getting ready to leave.



Reached his place by 9:15 where Avinash(Contra) and Vinay were waiting for me already.Contra had been waiting since maybe 8:00 at his place for the shooting to start(was very pissed off).Then we waited for artist .He asked us to move to another Venky's(Banda) House.And On the way we picked up Artist and reached Venky's place .He hadnt even gotten up .He had slept quite late in the morning and all of us went straight to his room and started pestering him . We were just talking the usual chat and Artist and Vinay started to plan for the day ahead.


In the meanwhile Artist and Me had to leave and get a DVD.So went out and when we returned our Main Lead Hero had also arrived there Abhijeet(Bubby).


After a while of planning out the events we started off to our old usual legendary ground Economics in A.U.It was around 11:00 now.Another actor Vijay was on his way .By the time he arrived Bubby and vinay had toured the complete AU to search for the best location for our starting scene .It was very near by but what followed next took around 3 to 4 hrs to complete .


It started with the leaf .We had to show a leaf which has gone spoilt in a tree.Then we had to show it falling to the ground .For this we made artist climb up the mango tree and from there he tried all angles that could best capture this sequence .In the mean while Me ,Contra and Vijay had nothing to do so we were just chit chatting and taking Pictures of ourselves to pass time.then we got tired but these people were still behind the leaf.Another friend of ours had joined by then Kartik.He also assisted us in taking the scenes by holding the butter paper in different angles till his hands started to ache .I don't know how many takes we must have taken but it was around 2:00 by the time we finished over there.




Everyone were damn hungry so we decided to have lunch outside in Alpha Hotel.We went there and ate till everyone was full.and all the time we were discussing about the leaf sequence and the usual jokes from contra on bubby and others were the norm of the time .





We were free again by 3:30 so planned to reach the next spot at Trinethra .Where again we parted from Vinay and Artist who went on to search for location for the next sequence.When they had completed we once again went to economics ground.Everyone was feeling damn sleepy with the work from morning and the heavy lunch which followed .And Artist and vinay were delaying it more and more .By the time they arrived Zeeshan another friend of ours had come to join us.And i forgot to mention that Kartik had fled the scene saying that he would return after 1 hr and we never saw him again in the following day .He must have really got tired.



Then we went to the next spot Of the corridor sequence .where we also added Zeeshan and Guru Tejaswi in the scene .Leaving only Vijay with the camera.Here we spent around 30 to 45 mins.




The next sequence was the most tiring one .We went to Sathikanths house where we had to shoot a sequence where all the friends are enjoying there time watching TV.All we needed to do was laugh and pretend like having a time of our life.But Vinay and Artist took so many takes that for the next half an hour we were just trying different things laughing like mad for no reason some times ,sometimes on stupid jokes which didnt mean anything ,sometimes just by looking at eachother and what not finally .They were satisfied and we shifted to the next spot .



This spot was Teneti Park .We had to throw Bubby into the sea water and thats all .We took it and by the time it ended Me Contra Bubby and Vijay were all wet and needed to refresh .though i wasnt so wet.So we decided to split get freshed up.Now it was around 6:00 in the evening everyone were hell tired .





So we all met at Cafe Coffee Day .There we ate some and drank some stuff.and when everyone had arrived we took some 2 other sequences over there itself.
Then again we had to shift to another place where Vijay had to give his final shot for the day.But after being able to find the perfect spot the camera gave away.Its battery was over.




Then again now it was around 8:45 .We planned to move to my house to finish up th final scenes of the movie at my house .Only Vinay Artist Bubby and Me were left.I asked my Mom and sister to sit in the bedroom till we had finished shooting .So we finished it by 10:10 .Then we packed up everything and I went to drop Artist to his place which was abt 15 mins distance from my house .







By the time i came back home it was around 11:00 i had my dinner and then sat in front of the net .checked my mails and started writing in the blog .But there are many things that i am not writing just because i am very tired and some because i cant mention over here and some because it will just make the post very lengthy.





Its not over just yet .There are still some sequences to be shot tomorrow.And the most important part of is the Editing and Audio Narration part.So
its going to be a busy day once again tomorrow.







But what ever we did today i can say that each and every one of us who were involved enjoyed it to the fullest.There was no Dull moment i can say even when we were down tired we had the energy enough to make ourselves laugh and keep going for the next part.And most importantly these are the times which we will remember for a long time and as a reminder of our friendship......





I hope these moments spent keep coming again and again as long as i live....

A Freaky End To 2oo7 ................

Ya the guy from the football mishap is fine now operation done ......We collected some amount from among us and gave some part of the total medical expenses ....


So 31st is a day when everyone wants to enjoy to the max as if the next day there will be no one left in this world.......so even i had plans for doing something of that sort ....had been doing work on net to make some money to spend on 31st ........

Everything said and done 31st arrived I had to go to the college cause we had Internal exam that day .....Going to college is a frustrating thing for me but i made my self happy by thinking of the gud times that were going to come when i will pass out of this college .....and the thought of year ending made me more happy cause it was just another 4 months of college..............

So i went to railway station me and my friend Avnish met there...were talking abt the day ahead ....we both were going to college for 3rd day in our final semester ....


Our train left Vizag ........in Vijayanagram station it stopped ......i saw that many of our college ppl were saying that some one was lying dead on the tracks just beside our bogie ......everyone had crowded the doors ...when they cleared i went and saw an outline of a person (polio stricken maybe) lying motionless in between two platforms .....as i was abt to focus more i saw that his head was not attached to his body ..........the very next instant i turned my head didnt want to see anymore .....the train left vijaynagar after 10 mins ........by the time we reached college my friend and i were talking abt the poor guys death and what circumstances might have caused it .............

So we reached college ........at the final hour we had our exam .....our sir distributed the papers ......and a friend of mine dictated the answers to the 20 objective questions.......we wrote it and started our journey back to Vizag .........

In vizag station as i was leaving i realised that i had some Rs 60 missing ....again i went back to the place where we sat but no luck couldnt find any thing .......

Next from railway station i caught an auto till complex.....as soon as the auto had reached 1/3rd of distance his auto stopped .....he said petrol was over ....I thought why was this happening with me ......then the auto fellow used to do something and the auto would run upto some distance and again stop.....we reached petrol bunk ......he got filled his auto ....

In the mean while my friend Venky asked me to come directly to ground as all of us were planning to play football for the final time in 2007 .......then i went straight to the ground .......already many had come so there was no chance of me playing .....I had to be on Bench (meaning just viewing ) .......As these people were playing 2 guards came and asked us to vacate the ground ..........so we had to shift to the one just near by ........but even there we werent allowed .......... so we planned to go to a ground quite far from where we were playing .......

After we reached there we started playing as it was turning dark we were just thinking of stopping .......the ball was passed to me for the final time and i just got a hold to it and started to run but i had just taken 2 steps when my right foot went into a hole in that area and by the time i realised i was on the ground in complete pain and agony ......thought my leg got fractured .....the pain was such never had experienced such pain ......every one surrounded me and started giving thier suggestions and one friend Anand narrated the famous Advertisement India Mein Advice dene wale bahut mill jayenge .....I lay there for abt 10 mins and then tryed to get up ......I started to walk the pain had ceased a bit ........Again I thought that why it was happening to me ......


so everyone stopped as it was quite dark and were deciding to meet up some where for the night ......My friend drooped me home and when i saw my leg it had swollen up and become a mini footballl............I realised that this 31st was goin to be spent at home only .........So the whole night was with parents watching TV or chatting with friend on net .......

The Next Day when i got up I heard my mom say that our TV had stopped functioning ........I thought the whole year would be like this maybe for me ......But it got fixed by som time in after noon ........Thank god

And My leg is healing quite nicely taking its time ......I still need to go out from home this year and see whats in store for me .........

So the whole 31st had been a big event of twists and turns ending finally with my ankle twisted .....................
