A cat’56 @ T.I.M.E. scenario

Facts :

           you might think that why 56 (cha-PP-эn)? Even I don’t know how chappan was came up or founded but as per my belief it was most probably founded by Aniket  or Soham. The significance of this no is very huge among our group. If we are talking about some year in future than it must be 2056, if we are talking about our old age, it must be chappan. While working on the paramarsh launch video if we couldn’t find some featcher we needed in Photoshop CS4 or Adobe After-effects CS4 then one of us (me-saumil, Aniket  , soham ,Vishwa) say:”apne photoshop cs-chappan banyenge usme ye dalenge and apne bache fir vo use karenge….” Or sometimes we use it for exaggeration: “ye NFS:most wanted to kya he be…apne to NFS:chappan banayenge be… ”.I don’t know why but this particular no. when spoken with intensity -chhhhhappan always brings laugh in our group. chhhappan rocks…

Fiction

Place: classroom at T.I.M.E., baroda

Date: 12^th feb, 2056.

Time: 9:00 in morning

Chandu ka beta:”han…han..han..han, agar ye 5 me se aapko 4 bhi aa jate hai na to aapka 80 percentile to pakka hai… han..han…to ham konsa kar rahe the, pahele 3^rd dekh lijie…usme kya aayega? Ye to ho hi jana chahiye tha…” now he moved his finger in the class with the hope of getting the right answer but the class was completely numb. “Are kya ker rahe hai aap, cat’57me bhi iska answer ane laga hai…”

        

    He waits for some minutes and then different guesses arrived. Chandu ka beta:”aapne 1,3 and 4 bol diya matlab konsa answer hoga…”

“twooooooooooo…”whole class spoke in unison.

        

     At this momemt Amal ka beta arrived in the class, as always late and with huge smile on the face which made whole class smile a little-bit.

Chanu:“answer hai 2^nd chappan, koi iska matlab batayega…?”

Vishwa ka beta with gestures of hands:”sir, it’s like…I mean…it’s…”

Mera beta ,soham ka beta and Aniket  ka beta laughing silently and acting completely ignorant about the word. But they recollect that they might hear that word somewhere…

Ashish ka beta:”when we were talking about some very big thing and…”

Chandu ka beta with lots of gratitude on the face and with pointing towards Ashish ka beta ”very good, yahi answer chahiye tha…han..han..”

You might think that why our kids were not getting the answer even if we were the founders. Answer:’are hamare bache hai hamari tarah hi honge na, book thodi padhenge yaar….we believe in practicle knowledge.’

Chandu ka beta asked Ashish ka beta:”aapne ‘shabdik bhandol banyu saral’ by norman..sorry naresh kanodia padh lia kya? ”

Ashish ka beta:”haaa..sir.”

Chandu ka beta:”han..han…you know..aisa pata chal hi jata hai…”

By the way, with the speed the Gujarat is growing today in 2011 under narendra modi and in 2056 under narendra modi ka beta and with some trillions dollar of M.O.U.s, Gujarat will become the next New York and Gujarati language will dominate the world. But I am writing this in English because the day is yet to come (and I didn’t have gujarati keyboard).

Chandu ka beta:“han..han..han..han… ye jo word chappan hai…. vo paheli bar ek blog pe introduce kiya gaya tha…abhi uska nam yaad nahi aa raha” now he was thinking deep with his first finger of his right hand on his chin and trying to get the name.

Abhijeet ka beta started his guessing:”sir ultasidha-hinglish.blogspot….”

Sir:”vo bhi kafi accha blog hai…aap padhte hai kya…but vo nahi tha…me abhi dekhke aata hu…”

Now the class started making noise. Tosha ki beti came to class with some announcement and said:”please pay attention…” but the thing was everyone had already paid attention to her from the moment she entered.

Now again sir returned:”vo blog ka naam likh dijie saumilandfriends.blogspot.com han…han…han…aj hi isko padh lena hai…”

Atharva ka beta came to life:”ala aato mara kaka no blog che laa…ala sachee hu madelo chu laa…” Nishant ka beta gave him a skeptical look.

  Sir continued:”yaha pe aapko kafi naye word mil jayenge…jaise ki” again in deep thinking ”for example ungothable…fir madan and all that …padh lena ek bar…”

Vibhanshu ka beta in fustration:”************* ********* sala ******* ******* ******”

Sir continued:”han..han..ajse 45-50 saal pahele kuch students the M.S. me un logo ne is word pe kafi….you know…aise…matlab un logo ne itna preference diya tha ke uske bad is word pe jyada kuch change hua hi nahi…. ” getting form again ”han..han…matlab ye nahi hai ki unke bad kisine kuch kiya nahi but the thing is …ki unho ne itna jyada  ker liya tha ki…..matlab age kuch karne ko bacha hi nahi ……………………………………………….(3 more minutes)”

The whole class didn’t know why sir was telling this.

Anant to neighbour:”ala mere papa bhi blog likhte the be…darroj na  5 words…”

Sir continued:”……..aj ki news padhi kya rahul ghandhi… ”

Abhijeet ka beta jumped for answer:”ha sir, Rahul Gandhi ka beta desh ka sab se eligible bechler hai…”

Sir:”..usme eligible ke spelling me ‘i’ ki jagah ‘e’ dala hai…mark kiya kya kisi ne…? chodo vo sab…”

Chandu ka beta continued:”abhi me jo bolne jar aha hu uska answer 2 second me aa hi jana chahiye…ek famous idiom hai chappan ka use karke…jiska reading achha hai use to ana hi chahiye, ye aa gaya to more than 85 percentile…”

Pointing towards Teena ki beti “han…han… mam aap batayegi kya…on cloud…age kya aayega..? jaldi se…” she shook her head. ”agar aap ye nahi bata sakte to fir …….thank you…are yad karo aa jayega…”

Teena ki beti:”sir, I am not IIM material… ”

Now answer came from behind. Sir:”sir, aapne answer diya kya?”

Mayur ka beta:”ha sir, on cloud chappanth”

Amal ka beta:”ha …sir..ha..sir…’on cloud chappanth’…”

Sir:”aap spelling batayenge kya?” Now Amal ka beta was numb.

Chandu ka beta to Mayur ka beta:”very good, that’s the answer. Aap ko maine mark karke rakha hai, aapki ‘shabdik bhandol banyu saral’ to ho gayi hogi…ab main puchunga nahi…..main ye man ke chalta hu k aapki ho hi gayi hai…is that clear? Han..han..han…”

Chandu ka beta, suddenly remembering something:”aapko ek doosri book bhi boli thi kya?”

All:”nooooooooooooo”

Sir:”chillana nahi hai…. likh dena hai..likho…’6 saptah ma shabdik shakti by Gajodher Choksi’  very famous …suna hoga aapne…nahi suna kya..” Nobody responded so he put his hand on his chest and pretended like he was filling terrible pain.

Vibhanshu ka beta to his neighbour: ”gajodher choksi ka ******* ****** ************************* ”

All the students were watching sir like some weird show was going on.

Chandu ka beta:”vaise us idiom ka matlab koi batayega…sir..”

Mayur ka beta:”sir, it’s similar to ‘on cloud nine’ ”

Chandu ka beta:”han..han…aap galat nahi hai…per aap ne jo bola uska meaning kafi chota hai ‘on cloud chappanth’ k samne. Ek famous auther hai usne kaha hai ki:’the figurative difference between ‘on cloud nine’ and ‘on cloud chappanth’ can be understood by getting their literal difference.’ Pata chala? …  ”

Chandu ka beta :”Doosara ek idiom hai…dhyaan se sun na hai…’having chappan problem’ ….”

Ashish ka beta:”having so many problem concurrenty…”

Chandu ka beta:”very good… abhi kya koi muze chappan ka pural batayega …itna easy nahi hai…but fir bhi…I am expecting answer…ek rule tha..weird tha…”

Mera beta, Aniket  ka beta , Soham ka beta and Vishwa ka beta in unison:”chhhhhhhhhhappan……”

Sir:”very good…ye sirf usage se hi ata hai…chappan ka pural karne ke liye uske piche ’s’ nahi lagana hai per bitch me ‘h’ lagana hai…”

You maybe thinking until now our betas were silent, how could they suddenly come to light. Answer is:”unho ne book bhale na padhi ho hamare muh se to barbar suna hi hoga naa…this is practical knowledge.”

Chandu ka beta:”aapko ek management book likhwayi thi kya? Soham karke…nahi likhwayi kya….thik hai …likho…’soham and his vadapao lari outside IIM’ …itna acha book hai ki IIM-A me bhi vo padhate hai… ”

Atharva ka beta:”ala e to mara kaka ni book che laaa……..”

Again Nishant ka beta gave him skeptical look……………………………….
