Sookhe Naale Mein Behtee Huee Laash

Wondering about the title? Well this is all I remember from last night. Nope I was not drunk, a little high would be more like it. And then again I did no wrong; after all one turns 28 only once in a lifetime.

My birthday bash had all the ingredients of a Bollywood potboiler – Naach Gaana, Emotional turning points, Crude Jokes, Screaming Neighbor, Childhood Flashback, Appealing Eye Candy(s), Chicken & Daru, (Some) really bad Goof-ups and above all, Realization of Meaningful Friendships.

Here are a few snippets –

Most of those who showed up happened to be my online blogging buddies, three of them I actually met for the first time. Frankly I find this quite unbelievable at times, I mean forming close bonds with people you have met via the blogging network. Cool na!

And yes, we did have serious discussions on - My fascination for Salman Khan, Rakhi winning Nach Baliye 3 and last but certainly not the least, my uncanny Sanjay Dutt drugged-up look.

[Ps - Sookhe Naale Mein Behtee Huee Laash is in fact a horror flick directed by some equally shady director, shown in even shadier single screen cinema halls. This film was suggested by a dear friend during a non-biased game of Dumb Charades and the best bit is, the opposition team guessed it in flat 7 minutes. ]

In any case, happy bday again.

Someone from our team was given this title for dumb-charades. We took for ever to guess the bloody name! Damn the usage of words like ‘naaleh’ and ‘behteeh’. The latter is still permissible. Happy B’day, stranger!

Belated wishes!!!
Welcome the “Club 28″!!!

The ‘Sookhe Naale Mein Behtee Huee Laash’ reminds me of some such titles which we used in Dumb C. Another gem was ‘Aa Ganji Teri Maang Bharun’ and ofcourse the very (in)famous Andheri Raat Mein, Diya Tere Haath Mein :P

Have a great year ahead!!
