Flashback

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I don't know clearly about every man's success, but behind every man's failure, there is a 'flashback'! One incident that would tell a lot about what is about to come. Unfortunately most of times such a critical incident goes as unnoticed as a murali starrer romantic movie.

And the time is now ripe to look at the flashback of one of the most famous personality walking on planet earth today - Gin. (lets face it guys, this is MY blog!)

-------------------------------------------------------

Year: 1993 ( The year that saw the release of movies like 'Aranmanai Kili' , 'Ponnumani' etc).

Gin's educational status: 2nd std pass. 3rd std E section. (bar)



Gin is shorter/fatter/wider than what he is now. He is seen walking into the school wearing a white well-pressed shirt and a tight grey half-trouser. His hair is well combed with unnecessarily excess oil applied. A loose red colour handkerchief hangs down from the right pocket. A green colour nylon wired lunch bag is on the right hand. And more importantly a strange smile constantly keeps appearing and disappearing on his face.

He gets to his classroom, places the lunch bag outside and gets in and walks to his bench. Innocent Ramu is as usual early to school (he takes the 7:45 auto) and is studying something. The class is half full with more students coming in as time passes.

Gin looks around for someone, confirms the persons presence and strikes a conversation with Innocent Ramu.


Gin: "Ramu..."

Innocent Ramu: "Enna da?"

Gin: "innaikku PT period la enna pannalaam da?"

Innocent Ramu: "enna padikka vidu da.. un kooda pesavey koodadhunnu enga amma sollirukaanga... theriyuma?"

Gin : "yen da? naan enna pannen?"

Innocent Ramu: "Mary miss kitta solli naan place change panna poren.. un kitta ukkarndhadhukku aprom naan 15th rank ... adhukku munnadi 3rd rank .. oru vaati yaavadhu first or second rank vaanganumnu enga appa sollirukaaru"

Gin: "dei.. first or second rank vaangaradhu waste da.. romba danger"


Innocent Ramu: "ennada solra?"

Gin: "aamam da....first rank vaagina green color badge tharuvaanga... second rank vaangina red color badge tharuvaanga"

Innocent Ramu: "aamaam...adhanaala enna?"

Gin: "andha badge a shirt la sharp pin vechi kuthi viduvaanga principal. Kuthum podhu heart la kuthi ratham rathamaa varum...theriyumaa"

Innocent Ramu: "oh...nejamaavaa?"

Gin: "aamaam... "

Innocent Ramu: "illa... nee poi solra... enakku unna pidikkavey illa... namma friendship a idhoda stop pannikalaam da"


Gin (thinks for  a second): "seri ok... aana kadaisiya oru velayaattu vilayaadittu stop pannikalaamaa?"

Innocent Ramu: "enna vilayaattu"

Gin: "naan onnu solluven... nee adha continue panni sollanum... simple game"

Innocent Ramu: " puriyalayey"

Gin: "ippo naan  India-one India-two India-three nu sonna... nee  India-four India-five nnu sollanum....naan stop solra varaikkum"

Innocent Ramu: "ok...naan ready"


Gin: "ok... 'I love Gaya-one .... continue pannu"


Innocent Ramu: "I Love Gaya-two, I Love Gaya-threee"


Gin(shouts): "eyyy Gayathri..... Ramu unna paathu I love you sollitaaaaannnnnnn"


 -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

At 3 PM that day, Gin is found kneeling down outside the classroom with his hands stretched over his head. He thinks hard for the whole period, but is not able to find answer to one puzzling question.

"Gayathri ipdi class miss kitta maatti vittutaaley.... epdi avalukku Ramu nallavan, naan kettavannu therinjudhu.... indha ponnungalayey purinjikka mudiyalayey....cha...."
