Blatant Advertising :)


Well, this isn’t the first time that I am performing in Mumbai…

And I can’t fathom why I didn’t think of putting information about my Mumbai shows (read: advertising our shows) on the blog ever before…

But, better late than never…

So, People, we are performing our Marathi play “Tichee Satra Prakarne” in the NCPA Theatre Festival on Saturday 27th November at 7:00 p.m. Tickets are available online.

So, dear regular readers (= a grand total of 3 ?) who can understand Marathi (all 3 ? *keeping fingers crossed*) do come ! Actually even if you understand a bit of Marathi, do come…because for one-thirds of the play we speak in Hindi + English :)

And should you come for the show and like it, do come backstage and ask to meet me…we’ll talk about the play (= you will praise it) :D

And should you come for the show and NOT like it, do come backstage and ask to meet me…we’ll talk about your blog :D

And how will you know me ? You carry a black briefcase and I’ll carry a similar one…à la Hindi movies…OK, no, seriously, I am the one who says “trademark” in the play…and this is a real clue, but you will figure it out only if you watch the play…isn’t that a great trick to get you to see it ;) ?

And even if you can’t make it…do wish me luck…this is a difficult one…

How NOT to compère a function

Recently I attended an awards ceremony. It was a grand function with a huge audience in attendance. Many awards were given and some speeches too. The compère was, unintentionally, terribly funny ! In this function, when the compère announced the first award winner, he announced, “Please welcome on stage Mr. X (pause) married to (pause) wife Mrs. X (pause) from 1977 and successfully (pause) completed 32 years of (pause) married life…” I had tears in my eyes from laughing too hard :D Later, the same compère, while telling the audiences about a certain award winner, said, “…he is married (pause) to wife Mrs. Z (pause) and enjoys playing with his (pause) children K and M. His favourite (pause) holiday destination is (pause) the beaches (pronounced as ‘bitches’) of (pause) Goa” I nearly died choking with laughter for this one ! In the 45 minutes that he was on stage he was responsible for much hilarity due to his totally inappropriate commentary. I, of course, laughed my guts out and what c

‘Geographically challenged’

I laughed my guts out while reading this . Then I had another bout of laughter thinking of all the incidents that happen with me. For a long time now I have known that I am, what I like to call, ‘geographically challenged’ :) Situation 1 - If I go inside a building (happens mostly with residential buildings), then after I exit the lift (elevator) or come down the stairs, I cannot quickly locate the gate ! Situation 2 - If I am inside a building, I will routinely point in wrong directions to indicate places outside the building. Situation 3 - I am presently at office. I have come here from home. Now I have to go to some place where I have always gone from home and never from office. What do I do ? I go home first and from there I go to that place. It doesn’t matter if it is a longer distance or takes more time. I have to do this, because simply have no mechanism to re-align my mental map to my present location ! Situation 4 - Another thing is that if I have come to your place in
