Zorro from Zero

The czar of Zorro zoomed into Zee tv eating a pizza from Pizza Hut. He then went to a zoo in Zimbabwe where he saw lots of zebras and watched 2 movies 'Zakham Bhari Zindagi' and 'Jhoom Barabar Jhoom'. He got tired and started behaving like a zombie roaming in the streets of Zulfikar Zahir street singing 'Akeli na Bazaar jaya karo, nazar lag jayegi'. People took pity on him and told themselves, 'kya zaalim zindagi hai'. Zorro had only 2 words for them, 'Zindagi Zindabaad!'.

Apologies for the above piece of absolute crap but then the work has been a very special one and took days to complete. Dedicated to one of the most rowdy looking guys on the planet, who has time and again proved to me that looks can be deceptive. One of the Benchers!

@Mayur

nd m waiting to listen from the protagonist myself.. he must have an aweful lot to say..

@ anne and mayur

I did not really expect such nice words honestly. I really thought it was some crap. But nice to know that this piece helped us bring back some amazing memories. I am waiting to hear from the protagonist too. This is for him and I deserve a comment (an abusive one though) :) . Most welcome. And thanks for the encouraging words.

Great work of literature indeed. Truely appreciate the effort put in. The ending matters the most , people had pity but the Czar still said "ZINDAGI ZINDABAD".
The latter part of the comment I will be mailing you. I see some people are really excited about it . Everyone deserves to be happy. And that too when they think they have toppled the Czar indeed every dog has its day. This war is yours but the battle is still on.

@surya

You know Surya, this piece was originally meant for a person of Oriya origin, and you are right..zabardast masti ayi :) I made a mockery of literature here ..but then those were just some of the hybrid thoughts in my mind :)

@ Czar,

I have always had the highest regard for you. Remember the days when you had pity on yourselves and we slammed the 2 words 'Zindagi Zindabad' into your brains :) Having said that, I am sure Zorro is going to come back stronger and with a better plan.

Yes u got one thing wrong, the BATTLE is mine but the WAR is still on...and not vice-versa ;)

Hi,
Here is some one new to blogging.Yours is quite a nice one. Could not get a clue out of this piece but your travelogues are great. Want to read more of those.

@decipher

Thanks buddy. This piece was an abstract one which was meant for a specific group of my friends. I guess you would have been wondering what it means :) Thanks for the appreciation :)

@Mrinal
Hey dude!!late at posting comments..sry abt that...this one's a gem..Wil always be a classic!! And take us to the greatest of times..

Hey so when is the next post coming? I am planning for a sikkin trip after reading your post but with a added twist can i bike all the way? is some special permission required? And is it possible trip?

Mrinal said...

@mittal
Thanks mate. It sure reminds us of the most crazy moments spent. :)

@decipher
I am myself waiting for the next post ;) life has been a lil hectic so waiting for some time off to write a piece. You actually planned a sikkim trip after reading my post?? Makes me feel elated. Thanks much !! :)
On a serious note, you cannot bike all the way up..it is dangerous and they wont allow you to. Even the drivers are experienced ppl there..so bikes are a complete No No. My personal suggestion: do not go in a package trip..hire a cab exclusively for your group of friends and that way u can go where ever u want and whenever u want. Yumthang, Katao, Lachung..You gotta be there to feel the mountains. Its just amazing.
