IPL Mashup!

My friends come from all walks of life, and I am somebody who hobnobs with luminaries. I happen to have a WeChat group that boosts of who’s who from media, bollywood, cricket, politics and business. I am envied by one and all for having on my WeChat none other than Arnab Goswami, Sanjay Dutt, Navjyot Sing Sidhu, Manmohan Singh, and Prasoon Joshi.

It is a usual hot, summery day and all five-six of us are on our way home from work, generally catching up on the state of affairs in the country. The conversation begins with Arnab as he rants about getting bored of targeting government and having told the nation about every darn thing it would care to know. Sanju (Sanjay Dutt) is quite low today as he has to leave for his jail term next day. He requests Arnab to keep his hands off him and tell nothing to the nation about his parade to Arthur Jail. He would like to have a quiet farewell.

Joining the conversation, India’s first man and supremo Mr. Singh (Manmohan Singh) says how he is repeatedly failing to answer with his ‘quiet’ demeanor.  He likes it more on WeChat as he can express himself freely before all of us without fearing getting caught on the wrong foot. Jumping in the WeChat pool Sidhu Paaji, “Guru, here at IPL it is all very shining and everyone having a gala time, witnessing blitzkrieg by the Jamaican giant who is cool as cucumber and goes by the name Gayle.”

Prasoon, to make his presence, speaks about his recent ad shoot involving Sachin Tendulkar and Ricky Ponting in the same commercial. He is very kicked about prospects that Cricketers offer to advertising. By now, Mr. Singh has passed out showing no interest to our worldly talks.

Come next day, Sanju Baba is ready in his patent white-kurta payjama to get on with his Jail journey. Worried about the overwhelming response from media, he steps out of his sprawling vila. Keeping up with the tradition, he sends a WeChat to the group -http://www.youtube.com/user/WeChatIndia?feature=chclk

Sanju  – guys, I’m going! Wish me luck. Especially, you Arnab… don’t get too emotional and don’t lose your voice on TV for me

Arnab – Dontcha worry Sanju bhai! I have only ten people camera team to escort you on your last Mercedes ride in long time to come.

Sanju – Ass you’re! Manu Ji, how are you doing? Say, goodbye to me.

Mr. Singh – Yeah! Goodbye mate. Catch you after three and a half years. Don’t you worry I will have an exception for you in Jail; I will arrange for an internet connectivity for you. We will still be connected by WeChat. :)

Sanju – Manu Ji tussi great ho!

Sidhu – Oh Guru! Nobody travels to the road of success without a puncture or two. I hope you come out wiser and nicer. And, we have enough cooking in cricket to keep you busy. I will give you live commentary on WeChat all along.

Prasoon – Mate, you come back and I will have a song ready for you. We will sing it in your next release after your jail term. I am right now shooting with Virat in the toilet – he is selling ladies sanitary napkins.

Suddenly, there is a sudden rush and we all hear Arnab screaming on TV screen while his WeChat is still on.

Arnab – The nation wants to know which side did Sreesanth hung his towel to signal bookies. There is a big story of the day unfolding before all of us. Don’t go anywhere; see you on the other side of the break.

Arnab on WeChat – Sanju bhai, it is your day. You should have asked for something better. I am sorry but I am taking my camera team away from your cavalcade to the stadium. Catch you later, buddy!

Sanju Bhai – Arey wah! Kya baat hai, IPL main jhol! Matlab, mera rasta clear. Let me get to my den faster.

Mr. Singh –Arey Arnab, take your guys away from my house also. You know how little I speak and they have tons of questions for me.

Arnab – Manu Ji, don’t you worry. You are not my target today any longer. I am taking my team away.

Mr. Singh – What you saying man? Who better than me can be your target?

Arnab – IPL is rigged! The nation wants to know who all are involved and how deep does this dig?

Mr. Singh – Whoa! Man you gotta keep this running for days to come. I am longing for vacation. Do me a favor: please have this stretched out as much as you can. Let me give you another angle – involve politics in it and question involvement of Narendra Modi. I want to show him down.

Arnab – Very smart Manu Ji! I let you be this time. Say my hello to Bhabhi ji.

Mr. Singh – So, I’m free! See you later guys.

Sidhu – Oh Guru! Tussi kithe chal diye?  

Prasoon – Wolla! I smell a good story for my TV commercial here. I will now mock at these cricketers who I have been raving about all along in my ads. Sree tu toh gayo!

Sidhu – There is a light at the end of the tunnel for IPL, but it’s that of an incoming train which will run it over

Arnab – Talk simple buddy! Who gets your quotes?

Sidhu – The cat with glove catches no mice. Keep your eye at it buddy, this has a never ending story; tighten your grip

Arnab – Yeah! I sense it boiling too hot in days to come

Mr. Singh – I am loving it! Guess, where I am? Italy! :)

Arnab – Even on family vacation?

Mr. Singh – So, what? I am working even when I am not working

Arnab – Long live you!

Prasoon – I just sold three TV commercial ideas involving cricketers, but this time - mocking at them! Lol

Sidhu –Oh my my! Where you taking my cricket to? I wish someone could tell Sree – when you dining with demon, you gotta have a long spoon.

And, it goes on….! Sorry, guys got to take a leave. I have got notifications coming from my WeChat group.
