Well well...It has been a long tym,a long tiring period of tym...bt fynally i am bak.Afterall kab tak apne is tym pass se duur rehte.;)
Continuing wid d story, it was showtime!!!
Jhankar....woooh fynall the day had arrived, all the efforts that were being put in for last week or so boiled down to this day.Evrything was set,evryone though nervous but was ready.We the 3rd yrs as alwys had a lot to do frm making the wrist bands,to fynallising the events,their order,to making last minute adjustments in the perfomances,arranging guitar players for singing perfomance,mixing for dance perfomances etc etc.Duniya bhar ki tension liye and equal amount of exxcitment & anxiousness liye i left the hostel,anticipating a special evening.I couldnt get a gud nyt sleep due to the skit practice the previous nyt but was still up and pumped up in the morning.The publicity work was done quite decently by the 2nd yrs and 3rd yrs.We just had to give our 100% on this final day.
So, the day started kuldeep & myself were supposed to plan out the events & their order,ladies deptt were given the responsibility of preparing the bands,aparna,mamta,shef,myself & kuldeep also had to practice our hosting part,KV,dev and 2nd yrs had to manage the RO with the DJ,audio system and flex.It was going to be a busy day.:)
I was busy with some work on laptop when varsha and anurag came up & said "sir sync nai baitha hai abhi 1-2 last practice kar lete hain".I saw the faces near me, gautam & amit with a cunning smile & then some1 made a remark "uske liye to apurv kabhi mana nai karega'...i was lyk "crap!!! yar 1 din ki to bat hai"... nd then i realised it ws the last day of our practice!! All the fun would end today.Kal se classes krni padengi..
;(:P
You were not available probably coz of ur lab sessionals.Then you showed up after sometime.And then the practice!!! Practice ke to kya kehne,jaise kasam hi kha ke aaen hon aj serious hona hi nai hai.Fir bhi somehow thodi bohot ppractice ho hi gai.I remmber kuch prblm thi end wale part me song ke,but wo end tak sai ni ho pai,cz kullu busy tha.
Neways apni thodi bohot prac kar ke humari panchayat baith gai,duniya bhar ki baten,frm sabke scul days,to family,to chandni,to non veg & to "DAARU"...;):D
Initially i thot kya hum bhi yaha baithe hain and baki log waha pareshan ho rae honge kam kar kar ke, but then i thot 'sab kam mai hi karun' to bas chhod diya unke haal pe.;)
After some tym we left the gen set area,fr the last tym...now i realise how special that place had become for me..:(...ab bhi waha nazar padti hai to ek smile aa hi jati hai...:)
Isi bat pe arz hai- Baton me wo zor ho jo har insan me imaan daal de, yadon mein ho wo kashish jo bejaan raston me bhi jaan dal de....;)
Uske baad to turbo mode me aane ka tym tha...Kullu hyper hua ja rha tha,sabke upar chilla rha tha,mujhe bhi kuch gusse me bola, man to kiya palat ke jawab de dun bt bechara sai bat ke liye pareshan tha.Meri hosting ki script ready nai thi,shef likh to li thi but dikhai ni thi hume,plus singerss ki bhi final practice nai hui thi,kuch ke to guitar bhi arrange nai ho pae the.Bohot tension ho rai thi.But still we were confident we'll be able to manage all.Then shef brought the script,2 bar prac ki nd we were all gud wid it.
Then fynally JHANKAR '11 started!!! Nandu nd party took the lib ke upar wali seats,ashu nd grroup were a lvl above them.Meri halat tyt ho rai thi,hosting mujhe n shef ko start karni thi and starting me hi public ka attention khichna wasnt an easy task.Khaer we were gud(as per ashu & 2 of my faculty members who were present :))...fir meri and kullu ki bakaitiyan start huin wich alongwith some interesting fillers came out to be gud.But 1 gadbad ho rai thi,saari perfomances itni jaldi ho rai thi ki humari perfomance aane tak lights jal hi na pati.But i was desperate,i said to kullu dat hum log andhere ke pehle to aenge hi nai jo bhi karlo.Then we increased some fillers, thodi prizes aur di nd then we were back on track.
Itne tym tak u were nowhere in the vicinity,when our perfomance approached near,i asked about u,jab anurag se pucha to he said "uff sir,thoda ruk jao",and again that cunning smile,man to kiya ek khich ke lagaun,ek to aise hi itni tension ho rai thi nd inko mazak sujh raha tha.Neways baccha samjh ke chhod diya.
Then u arrived,nd tumhara makeup...yukk!!I dont usually comment in sab baton pe bt us din actually pata nai tumne kya karaya tha.:P
Then humara bhi no. aa hi gaya.Mera dar bas shirt change karne tak tha uske bad to jab hmlog 1 bar jaake pad gae floor pe,sab kuch makkhan ke maafic nikal gaya...Hooting to highlight thi...Maza hi aa gaya,peeche se pratibha mera nam hi chillae ja rai thi nd mai sharam se gada ja raha tha.;)
Aftr we returned,i got busy wid da hooting inputs from the mic fr 'madhubala' nd shayad maine tumhe congratulate bhi nai kiya tha.:P
Aftr that tumhara 'dhunki' ha ha ha...As i told u,one of the most awaited songs for me,but band baja di gai uski,thodi der tak to samjh hi nai aya ki hua kya.But koi bat nai,all is well that ends well.And end me teri kami again.That was actually heartening(apart frm the hooting jisse bechare bacche pareshan ho gae the) ;)
Shef nd Varsha's dance was gr8 too..3rd yr showed its mettle..._\m/
Dheere dheere it all ended.Han we did hav maaaza,wich let me tell u contains salt(and is nt allowed in fast).
And uske baad foto session ka to sochke hi sharam aa jati hai,pata nai kya dimag me aya,may be jo 2 days se chidhaya ja rha tha uska frustation tha ya tata ke chidhane ka jawab dene ka man...://
Uske bad thodi der tak mere mud ko saanp sungh gaya tha,ws tryng my bst to stay normal,fir thodi der bad dekha tum farar ho to laga yarr lagta hai zada gadbad ho gai,abi to friend kehna hai ya nai ye bhi cnfirm nai tha nd uske pehle hi itni 9tanki ho gai.Fir chandni se pucha to use kuch pata hi nai.Usse somehow no. nikalwaya fir bade soch vichar ke bad i thot phone kar hi lete hain.It felt bttr aftr talking to u.Fir kya i was bak in form,subah se vrat ke chakkar me kuch khaya nai aur samne pizza...Bas toot pada uspe,kya apna kya padosi ka,sab kha gaya.:):D
Fir to prakhar sir ne propose kiya sabko flat pe chaloge,unko mai mana nai kr paya,i sed han sir(1 bar to unke sath peeni banti thi).But jab ye khabar faili to mehfil hi jam gai tiwari,amit,kullu,Kv sab aa gae...And uske baad to tumhe kya bataun..."Daaru Puraan" u know...;):P
This was the end of Jhankar'11 which was also probably the main reson behind us sitting and writing all these khatti meethi baten and preserving our khatti meethi yaden!!!:):):)
