Annu - The Angel

She is still a little angel although she is 2 years old now.This day is auspicious in its own way as I could remember the rains in the year 2010 which were unstoppable, but on this day the date 18 Aug 2010 the rain stopped , there was silence everywhere ,even there were no murmurs of birds when at 2300 hours I got a call from our own Deepu that I became Mama, and I was speechless as I couldn't believe that I became mama.


It was the dusk of 18 Aug 2010 when this little angel placed herself @ sitaram hospital , Qutub Institutional Area,Delhi and everyone was happy.Next day I went to the hospital and she was so delicate that I hesitated in carrying her up in my arms.Even my one arm was longer than her.


After few days I went to her house and took her up in my arms and I can't express the feeling beyond that.
I never knew that being a Mama and holding my  niece in my arms is speechless and priceless.The days passed and this little angel is now 2 years old , Happy Birthday Annu .Albeit your Mamu Mamu is not with you , I hope you enjoy the day and keep all happy as you always do.There are only two voices that I miss here sitting miles away from India and those are "Swaby" and "Sober Mamu Kaa Gaye"Hope the counting I taught you till 10 will increase to 100 and beyond that.


Wish you many-2 happy returns of the day and hope once you start reading you will read this blog and smile.
I would be happiest person if I can bring a smile to you.May god bless you and may you bring laurels to the family.The day has passed before the year has passed ,the sorrows has also passed.

Come on Annu , only one thing I would like to preach you all your life  Just remember

"This shall to pass".

Your Dearest Mamu,
Saurabh

Deepu Da Champion

Deepu taa famous si "Deepu is a famous personality",be it in his friend circle,be it in his in-Laws,be it in his office,or be it any other environment of which he was part.He was a cream of personality and when this guy is a role model for millions you might have to speculate who was deepu's champion.Who was the person whom deepu addressed by the name of champion?.

Yes it was me the author of the blog,once when deepu came to know I am an entrance guy man,Studying for every possible entrance exam,cracked CAT somehow someday,cracked some interviews,cracked so major entrance tests,but till now all in vain,deepu started calling me as "Champion".Whenever we call each other his first phrase was always used to be "Aur Champion,kya chal raha hei?".This phrase to me is as important as my job ,this is the phrase which everytime I listened I fire withing me was instigated and created a confidence on me.The last call I received from the "HERO" was on 10 or 11th of Feb 2011 when he was inquiring about our departure for J@ipur.

That time was the last time I heard those words,now there is no ambiguity ki "Deepu Da Champion kaun hega".I miss those words from bottom of my heart ,I know anyone can address me like that,but the stance that deepu took while addressing me like that was as if the voice was coming from his heart.A smile when he talked on phone which you can perceive,a caring attitude which you can feel while u r on the call,A mischievous behavior from his side @ times when he was at his best.

Please come and whisper in my ears "Aur Champion,Kya chal raha hei ?".

Deepu the DJ

There was an instance when "Deepu" became DJ overnight,it was the time when we left first for Chandigarh from Delhi .There Deepu met our cousins and mingled with them very easily as I already discussed "Deepu" knew how to mingle with every age group,he knew what was the most apt communication with every kind of person.We all then decided to go to Shimla without intimating to elders of our family.We started our journey and as we started "Deepu" also started his journey ,mind you he was a damn good car driver,the moment he turned in the hills it was like a Roller Coaster ride .

There "Deepu" started his own song style playing songs on his car music system as if he was a DJ,And everytime I asked him to let the song complete he changed it again and again.That journey completed in Approximate 2.5 hours on the contrary the usual time from Chandigarh to Shimla is 4-5 hours.That moment I kept his nickname "DJDeppu" so the blog name is justified "Deepu as DJ".

We enjoyed a lot still I can feel that trip in my real time,a journey which was impeccable ,a journey which started long back and still continuing ,a journey which will continue till I last ,a journey in which "Deepu" has to accompany me no matter in any form, a journey whose driver is "Deepu",so it would be stand still if "Deepu" doesn't drive ,a journey ought to complete.

Regards,
Deepu

A real Hero !!

It was the time of peak summers ,it was all dry everywhere ,the leaves ,the trees ,the people around ,it was a peak summer ,all sweat on humans.While I drove away from Jaipur to Delhi with my elder sister for meeting my brother in law.A keen guy ,and when I say keen its in all aspects of his characteristics.He was keen for meeting people,he was keen for serving people around,he was keen for enjoying moments,he was keen for helping relatives ,friends and even his foes which I challenge he might not be having as far as I know him.By the time our bus entered the well known "Bikaner House" at cannuaght place ,New Delhi,there was a person waiting inside the car for us.It happens with people usually that you meet a person you feel strange ,the counter party has the same feeling and yes being no exception I felt the same.It was mere communication of 2-3 lines I noticed the guy having respect for all surrounding him.Yes we reached home it was the dusk of I think one of the days from June first week 2006.It would have been years with him life long but the moment it turned against us it wasn't the demise of a single person,it was a demise of entire ambiance he created for my family and he made everyone happy.Be it initiating the diagnose of my mother who is struggling from 'Arthritis' ,a creature who now also don't know how to thank him as he disappeared without telling us where he is going.

Its not I have to count his good work because if I would start I will end up in the dawn counting his good work.Well this guy his name is "Karun Arora" a young blood with a cool heart,a dedicated employee,husband,son,brother ,and most important I must say for me technically he was "brother-in-law",But after I met him and the days which passed by he himself deleted "in-law" part from the word from my heart.I always felt him as an elder brother,a self motivated person who created a positive energy all around,a person with whom you don't have to share your emotions he just reads you and asks what the problem was.Its been 4 years of life with him,I always fought with my mother that I she didn't gave me brother who was always there in my failures and success,he was the person who filled that gap during my period of struggle when I gave my interviews.Day in Day out be it a 11 o clock in night or 4 o clock in the morning he will serve you ,may be your family,relatives,frens and off course office.

Its not that my writing is very limited if I will write for him,but its true the 4 years he gave us were full of life.The weekend drinks ,the outing @ malls in gurgaon,and the shopping it was all fun with him .He suggested me with ideas I was stumbling on making decisions.You take any example of this person and you will see one peculiar thing /characteristic of his which is hard to find in today's world and that was a characteristic of "Serving Others".You ask him a favor and I bet he will be at your doorstep without complaining and without expecting anything in return.May be I haven't met him many a times,but the time I spent with this person I used to laugh laugh and just laugh,the drinks the snacks,pulling up bottles for weekend,the "egg bhurji' and much more.Very honestly the time you departed till now I haven't felt you but the smile on my "bhanji's" face tells it all.We people are sinners and don't deserve your attention its true,but I just wanna say few lines which I hope is conveyed to you:

Oh nadaan parindey
Ghar aaja..

Oh nadaan parindey
Ghar aaja..

Yes ,We are sinners and that is why we are punished with the calamity which happened to be on"11 Mar 2011" a year of darkness ,a year of sorrow , a year which will be in our diaries , a year which passed and now I am feeling as if I had seen you long back .You might have left this world but surely you will stay in our hearts forever and ever and ever !!!!!!
