Romantic Mischief- Part 2

If u ask me , "did u proposed any girl?" With a smile (i want to name it as prank smile- a smile after doing a mischief) i will say 'Yes'. More specifically, it was on february 14th, 2012 I made my first and last proposal in my life.
As the date say, I proposed on the day of Valentine's day. My company hosting a Valentine's  day programme. The event name was "best proposal ". The time of the proposal was from 1pm to 5pm that too at cafetheria region. But I saw even after the competition ends, people continuing proposing girls. Every girls take it in a funny mood. Even one of my girl friend in my team got a rose from a boy. So I thought " what is wrong if I give the rose to my second angel in NGA". This thinking led me to plan for mischief part 2 ;)
I planned to give the rose to that girl. She looking good when I had walk through her bay. I didn't even tell my team leader that I am going to do this. Before I am going to propose, I told my team members that I am going to propose a girl. So almost all the team members, came with me to see that mischief. They came with me to up to one extend. After I walk alone to her bay. She was talking to some one else,at that time. I kept the rose just behind,of me it looks for some one like I am hiding something from all. So no one get the clue that I am going to propose and even she.
I just leaned down to give the rose to her. She exclaimed after seeing me. We had a look at each other for a few minutes. After that, I thought she will cry, but she didn't
Then I thought she may slap me, but she didn't
Then I thought she may roar in the floor but she didn't

She broke all my calculations

She started to cry...Almost all NGAins started look at us.

I stand for some time, in an expectation that she will take rose from me. I sat on a chair, with the rose pointing to her. But she was crying till then.

At last I told her to take the flower from me and I will leave her. She didn't obey.

Then I kept the flower  at her bay, after that I left from that place. When I had look at the back , I saw she putting the flower in the dustbin.

But this is not the end.....

Her team leader came to my bay and complaint my team leader about my mischief. That time only my team leader came to know about the incident. After that we had a special meeting with my team leader , her team leader and process manager. Unexpectedly, team leader and process manager was on my side. And I escaped from any kind of punishment.
After that incident, all used to tell about my courage.
But I had fear that, what will I do if she accept that flower???

An unfortunate celebrity meeting

If my memory is correct it was on 2009 I met him for the first time. Besides its last time too:)
My aunt one day told me that her daughter got the chance to sing,in Kairali TV ,a malayalam regional channel. As she had other works to complete, she requested me to accompany her daughter. The shoot was decided to do at trivandrum at kairali channel's studio. We started journey from ernakulam south to trivandrum.
We and my sister (aunt's daughter) reached the station on time. We walked from entry to railway over bridge. Saw a lot of faces....but one face which I saw there make me to think for a long time..I saw him @ south railway station entry point. We walked till over bridge. All these time I was thinking, about that person. Familiar face....but am not getting who is that. When we about to cross the bridge I got the name who is he. I told sister that he is G Venugopal, a great malayalam play back singer.
I told sister to wait for sometime, so that I can talk to him. I went near to him. I noticed that that no one is watching him, nobody is talking to him. I thought, might be people didn't understand him. I had a look at him, in total. I guesses it him. I am not mistaken.
I spoke with him for five minute. In dooradarsan, sometimes they show light music of famous play back singers, which include his famous song ( valam piri churulmudi.....). I ask him whether there is a chance to get that song. He told two ways to get that song. One is to ask dooradarsan directly, another is there is orkut community ( at that time orkut was in peak of famous) ask anyone in that group. After a few,time's discussion, one man came for his autograph. Actually that remind me to take a autograph from him. I searched my purse, I found only a paper which we get from ATM machine. I used that as autograph, paper and my purse as writing pad , to him. Without telling anything, he gave autograph to me. When its time to leave, I went back to sister and I confirmed her that he is G Venugopal.....
Later I got the song from one of the friend in the orkut community. But when I look back to think about him, I have some regrets. First thing is that I lost that autograph somewhere. Second thing is that, even if I love that light music I didn't even try to by heart or sing in any occasion :(

Romantic Mischief--Part 1

The two thing that I really like, working in info park is better working environment and....Some beautiful girls.
When I joined in NGA, I noticed 2 girls who seems beautiful for me ( but others think they are not). Also I decided to do something different for them.

Something romantic.

Something variety.

I got the first chance on Christmas celebration. On that day NGA host one variety program named "Secret Santa gift" in which, we can give a gift to anyone without letting them know who gave that gift. I arranged  2 other girl friends to make a Christmas cum Love greeting card to present it to my First Angel. Actually the duration of this program was only one week. But I decided to do it only on the last day of that week.The program will end up by 10 pm. So I was in hurry mood.

"Secret Santa gift" is fun club activity in our office. First of all, we have to give the gift to any of the fun club member. And they will give the gift to whom we want to present it. This is how actually it works.

This time I want to remind  about a movie named "Smurf", in which I really like one character which is a "Smurfy girl". She is very cute. What I did was I downloaded one image of that smurfy girl and printed that image in a card, so that I can cut that image and paste it in greeting card. I have given that smurf girl's photo to 2 girlfriends who are promised me to make a greeting card. And they did as I planned.


During that period I have a new habit of writing stories. In my latest story,there is a dialogue which I like most. It is like below

" ഒരു പക്ഷെ ഞാന്‍ പറയാന്‍ വൈകുന്നതും
, നീ കേള്‍ക്കാന്‍ കൊതിക്കുന്നതും ഒന്നാകാം"

I wrote the same in that greeting card.

Time was almost 9.30 pm. Those 2 girls finished their work of making greeting card. They handed over the greeting card to me. I walked to give that greeting card to one of the fun club member. After giving that greeting card to fun club member, I told them to whom the gift have to hand over.

They handed over that gift to her. I heard a big clap from her bay. 

One more time a heard a clap..... but this time its for the dialogue I wrote in that greeting card. My heart beats began to tic tic.... More  




If anyone ask why I did like that , I don't have any answer. Besides I can tell one thing, I got an idea on intensity of romance that I have, in me.

The day the inner fire burned

24th April, 2012

The day I can't forget......
The day I saw the drops of tear.....
The day I experienced the love of a mother....

I am Damn sure, you don't know how much your mother loves you till you have as experience to know about that. 

You won't agree with what I said now, but just think. 

Did you ever came to know that your mother loved this much? you will have an answer to this question only after you face an experience.

I have an answer to this question.

Yes, I can answer because I had one experience.  

Its my policy, if any one invite me for the function I will agree to come. As I expected my plus two mate invited for her marriage. I didn't tell I can't come. When she confirmed about the date i was little confused, coz that was a working day. It was only one month i joined in info park and it was very difficult for me to get a leave. But I didn't say no. I decided to go for the previous day of her marriage. 

On 24th morning, before going to the office I told mom, that night I will go to Ankamaly to attend a marriage function. She agreed to that. But things changed to worse situation. That day sky was clear, so i took my Aviator to office. I was on morning shift. I left from office at 6 pm. It almost take 45 min to reach my home from office. Besides there was heavy traffic near Alwaye Bypass. After facing that too, I reached home at 7 pm. Sky become dark.

As am very tired, after having a snack and tea I went for a bath. Then  the time become 8 pm. In the morning I planned to go by bus for attending the marriage. Being 8 pm, I thought to go in Aviator. I had one gift for her. Time is also lapsed for packing the gift too. Gone straight with no other stops on the way. Time become 9.15 pm when I reached her house. Actually I had only vague idea about the location. But I was able to manage to find it even if I wrongly entered to another marriage function at first.

When I entered to that occasion, she was participating in the Thiruvathira. I had to wait for another 10 Min to see her. But she didn't wait for finishing the thiruvathira, she came almost early beside of me to talk. Actually we are seeing each other after 8 years of gap. But still we had contact each other through calls and FB. By the time I also found time to speak with her brother. 

Its become dinner time. I heard some sounds of raining outside. I went out and watch, Yes! Its raining. I didn't gave much stress on that as I had the rain coat. After having dinner, I again went near to her to say a final good bye from that occasion. That time too its raining. With a mind of "I can handle this" I started to take the rain coat from the box. 

But I become stunned!!!! 

I had only coat and no pant. 

I forget to take. 

Then I thought How I can protect my remaining half from the rain.

By this time rain got stronger and stronger.

When rain become little weak, I left from that occasion

I driven till I get the new shelter from another strong rain. 

Lightening is also started and raining got more stronger. So I thought it will be better, if I wait somewhere so that I can leave when the rain get weaker. Then the time become 10.00 pm. I got a shelter at Ankamally. 

In a small shopping complex. 

I parked my aviator in a place. As lightening get more stronger I moved to 1 st floor of that building. By that time I messaged to dad that i will be late as i am posted @ Ankamally, because of rain and lightening. After few minutes later I got two messages from my dad, telling not to ride the bike in rain. Another messages is about whether I had my dinner. I said yes.

Time become 11.00 pm till there was no change in the intensity of raining and lightening. That was the strongest rain in that season. I tried many times to take the aviator and ride to my home. But the fear on lightening made me to stop doing that. 

Then I thought to sleep for sometime, and I found one place for that.

But when I tried to sleep, I felt something strange is happening in my body.

I felt like something is burning in my heart.

Which later stopped me from sleeping.

I felt that again and again, I just thought What will be that" 

A question I asked myself, which I can't answered.

Time become 11.30pm , that burning become lightening in my heart.

Lightening in both inside and outside. Road become full of water. Current was also gone.

My mind started to tell me that " Go, Go, Go" 

But lightening was still there. After 12 pm i saw any Lightening outside. I slowly walked to ground floor. I decided go to home. I started journey from Ankamlly at 12.15 am. I ride very slowly with my aviator. 


At 12.45 am I reached  home. i called dad in phone telling I am waiting outside to enter into the home. I saw Dad was in usual attitude, while he opened the door. But he told me one thing.

"Where was you?, Mom was crying. What was the need for you to go for this marriage, as she is not at all going to contact you after the marriage."

I thought Dad was telling this much to trigger me.

After saying that much, dad went to sleep.

But Mom come outside. In a gloomy face.

I saw tears in her eyes for the first time.

When I saw her more closer, I thought" Yes! She was crying that too for me".

I don't had any words to say at that moment.

She told me something  which I am not remembering.

But there is one thing which I can't forget...The Tears

That was the situation where I can see the love of a mother to her child in the form of tears.

I slowly walked to upstairs. That time too I was thinking about that tears.

Then I realized one more thing. The change I felt in my body and heart during the wait at shopping complex was this. It was due to this tears i felt like something is burning in my heart.

When you feels something is burning in your heart, its sure that someone who is loving you, is crying for you.





   
" In everyone’s life, at some time, our inner fire goes out. It is then burst into flame by an encounter with another human being. We should all be thankful for those people who rekindle the inner spirit."

Anoop bhattathiri- in the name I want to known for

My official name- Anoop.T.P
Nick name 1: Anu
Nick name 2: Appu
Nick name 3: tp
But the name I want to call my self is
Anoop Bhattathiri
I never noticed about this name till my graduation started. During the marriage time of my sister, dad came to my hostel to show me the marriage invitation card of my sister.
I saw one special writing at the end of the card
" With best compliments from Anoop Bhattathiri"
I told my dad that, it seems good. I ask him " whose idea was this?".It was my sister's idea to add my name like that.
That whole night I was thinking about "my new name". Once I asked my dad why you didn't keep that same name in my legal records. Dad told it was mom's decision not to make that name as official. She fears whether people call me with the suname and may forget to call in first forename. But still I like to known in that name.
Years later when the Facebook launched, I thought to start my profile with my "dream name".
And I did.
It was my first foot step to success.
I started to known as Anoop Bhattathiri.
I used the same name for brahmin association also. When the people call me with the surname, I feel like the king of the world. Wow!!!
I am getting feeling that old days are back.
When I was a child,dad's collegues used to come in my house. They call dad as "bhattathiri". He become famous in that name. The same thing happened when dad moved to business.
I have one incident which makes me more proud.

While i was working as sales officer in pathanamthitta, I used to go to Ranni. But I always forget to meet one of our family friend Manoj uncle who is working in IOB. We used to meet in FB for chatting.
After having a visit at Mini Super Shoppie show room I slowly walked to IOB branch at ranni. I easily identified Manoj uncle. We had nice chat around 1 hour. While am about to leave his manager came outside of his cabin. Uncle introduced me to him. "This is Anoop Bhattathiri, working as sales officer in videocon and he is my family friend too"
I feel surprised. Till now in my life, no one introduced me like that. My joy has knew no bounds. That's become the first recognition got for my name.

Exactly after one year when I won 3 prizes for District youth festival of Ernakulam Brahmin Association(Yogakshemasabha), in the cerificate also I had that name.

Thus I become Anoop Bhattathiri.

Even if it is not official,I feel proud when I have that name as my surname.I will do the same for my coming generation too.

I am getting a feeling that I am holding a culture.

Anniyan-The Strange effect of My Life

It was on 2005, I think the Anniyan Movie is releasing. At that time I went to attend one marriage function of my close relative. Then itself that film got a big publicity in Kerala also. After the marriage function I was on my way from Malappuram to Aluva. Suddenly I changed my plan,its coz my relatives are planning to go for a movie. That too for Anniyan. I told my mom and dad that I will come at night.

When I gone for engineering studies, I got only few chances to spent times with my relatives. So I decided use this opportunity. We got the seats at the back in theatre. HuH!! I saw this film from Akkara in Chalakkudi. I heard that Anniyan was a big budget movie that Tamil Nadu Film Industry ever made at that time. Also actor Vikram is acting after 2 years of break that too with Director Shanker. As usual expectations were high. After I leaving from the theater I was thinking about only 3 things
1->The acting of Vikram
2->The message that film deliver
and 3rd one Jayraj Magic on the song Iyengaru Veettu Azhake...........I started to like that Music and the Music Director

After the semester break I went back to Nagercoil. There I saw the waves made by Anniyan. In nagercoil it showed in 2 theaters. I saw lot of my engineering mates cutting the class and going for the movie. Its become a huge HIT!!!!
I become in 2nd year of Engineering. Upto that time I didn't take membership from Fine Arts Club of my college. Then somebody told to Ruksin Sir, Faculty Advisor of FAC that I sing well. Sir called me from my class and ask me to sing a song. I sung a classical song. He like it very much. He told me that we have a group song competition of Royal Club of Nagercoil and also told me to make a team. I made a team of  6 from the college hostel. We practiced well for a song from "Harikrishnans". Being overconfidence we didn't get any prize. Sir also become unhappy. I thought after that incident I will not get any chances to sing again. But I don't know that the good things yet to come.

Sir called me once again for a singing competition at Woman Christian College,Nagercoil. This time its for a Solo Competition. I started to look for a good song for that. Finally I opt Iyengaru Veettu Azhake.....I practiced it almost well. Then the day has come. I got the Own Duty certificate from HOD to go for the competition. I wondered even if I had the retest of System Software he let me to go. I was waiting for my chance in that Woman College.When the chance arrived I used it well. After the song One student of that college came near to me and ask 
"Are you Malayalee?" 
I said "Yes". 
She ask again " Being a Malayalee, you opt Tamil song for singing? and it was really good. Everyone like this song in Tamil Nadu" 
I really motivated from that experience. I gone back to college for attending extra coaching class. That time too  I was in another world. You can Imagine that situation. When I went back to hostel, I came to knew that I got Third prize. Rs.150. I gave treat to my friends for that 150 in Gowrishanker Hotel. The first strange effect of Movie Anniyan and The song.

Soon I got another chance in Ayyappa College for Woman. Solo song Competition. When I start to sing I saw some girls are murmuring. I donno wats that. But I got good clap from everyone. I got third prize again. This time too I had a strange experience.
Three days after the competition It was Novemeber 1, Birthday of Kerala and Kanyakumari. This Ayyappa college situated near by my college. I was walking from the hotel Gowrishanker and walking to my college. In opposite, I saw two girls coming. When they had look on me, I saw the surprise in their face. They smiled and murmured something each other. In that one girl dressed in Kerala style. When they crossed me,I looked back. The girl which I aimed, looked back at me and gave a smile. A Kerala Style Smile. Another strange effect. I calculated, she surely become one of them who was in the auditorium.

The Movie, Anniyan is strange
The Movie name meaning is strange
The Movie message is strange
The Movie songs are Strange
And the experiences which i got are also STRANGE
STILL I REMEMBER THAT EXPERIENCES WITH A SMILE, BECAUSE THEY ARE STRANGE

Use of Shaving Razor-A Funny Start

I still remember when I start to use Shaving razor.
At that time I was in ma old house. I was in plus two at that time. 
One day while i am seeing myself in the mirror I saw one strange thing, lots of hair at jaws. I started to look for a long time. Its not coz i am not seeing it for the first time,its coz of I am giving stress for the first time......
I become tense...Its not stopped for few time ...it last for few more months..Bcoz of that I had to face shying moments..
Shying moment 1:
I decided to remove all hair at jaws using razors. But still one problem is there I have to buy one. The difficult part!!!!After he school hours I came to aluva town for buying it. First of all I went to a medical shop for it. i asked for a razor. The shop keeper started to looking at me. He looked at my face's two sides. The he asked "But, where is hair at your jaws, Are you sure on your decision?" That time the lady shop keeper started to laugh. I ran away from that place due to shyness

Shying moment 2:
Then I decided to use my father's shaving razor. I started to use father's shaving blades. After dad's use I take  fresh blades and directly go to toilet. Then without looking at mirror I shave with that blade just below the mouth. When once I am leaving from the school my friend starts to tell me."Why you don't shave fully, its looking very bad". Ma friends started to tease on me. i felt shame.

Shying moment 3:
I told early that i am going with dad's shaving blades directly to toilet. Once when I am doing like that father saw it . He started to scold me nothing like anything. Caught on Fire..I started to cry But mom  came near to me. I thought its for making me relief but both mom and sister started to laugh on me. I felt bad.

next time
After collecting all ma courage,i decided to do that.
I proud of that moment.
After letting hairs at jaws grow, i went near the same Shop ...To same shop keeper...
This time that shopkeeper not had anything to tease me
This time that lady shop keeper not had anything to laugh.
At last I got one Shaving Razor for Rs 12/-
I am still proud of that moment.
THERE ARE SOME SITUATION WHERE WE BECOME FEAR TO DO SOMETHING. BUT DON'T FEAR. 
AT THAT TIME PLAN WISELY and
GO WITH COURAGE
YOU CAN WIN THAT SITUATION
THIS IS JUST A SMALL EXPERIENCE IN MA LIFE. BUT GAVE ONE LESSON AND THIS IS THAT
