THE DAY BATSHA RE-RELEASED

THE DAY BATSHA RE-RELEASED

           BATSHA, There are number of crazy fans for the movie due to one reason Rajinikanth. There may be fans for actors, but the name SUPERSTAR RAJINIKANTH has many worshippers. Vinu is one such crazy fan for the superstar.

          It is officially announced that the film Batsha is going to be rereleased with more clarity and improved visuals and sounds. Vinu said me that, he gonna book tickets for us for the date announced at nearby theatre and we planned to bunk classes let knowing nobody. Finally 3^rd march is declared as our bunk day. Vinu booked tickets for show at 10. We planned to roam around mall and returned to hostel after the movie.

          It is 6:07 am, when vinu woke me up on 3^rd march. He looked so confused and worried. I could read so many emotions in his face. I asked what happened? The reply collapsed all our plan. The tickets booked for the Batsha was at 10 pm. A small carelessness made our day a question mark. Vinu is in the state of feeling that he is going to miss his favourite movie but I have started to think what next. Suddenly my phone beeps a message that Anand is sick and will be absent for the class.

          The next plan started, and it had 3 members. We started from hostel at 9 am and caught Gandhipuram bus at 9:32 am and reached Gandhi park at 10:15 am. Our phone battery and energy levels are full, until we called Anand. He answered that, he is unavailable at his flat being in his uncle’s room. Our mind got struck, frustrated, trapped. Overcoming the disappointments, the other plan came to mind is to go plan less. We roamed cashless by walking draining our energy, searching what next? It is 11:13 am when we reached Brookfields. Ending at ticket counter we asked for 10rs tickets for movie at the mall. Got replied that 10rs tickets will be available only at weekend that too up to 10am. My phone ringed, it was my sister calling. I know her first question “Where are you without attending the class?” For god sake never say your sister your irresponsibility, it will lead to a disaster. Therefore I didn’t pick her call till one time.

          Planlessness, the only way to get lost into a city. We got lost without plan, planning so many failure ideas. My phone charge was draining by the ringtone. Finally, got down at town hall station, we decided to rest at a movie called “YEMAN”, escaping from the sun. 3 hours flied, we got out from theatre. I answered my sister to say what happened till last hours. The conversation ended up in anger and frustration. One final decision poped up, is to boozed anyway.

          This time there were two clever plans alternating each other. We bought one ½ Bacardi and one pocket of Gudan garam cigarettes. If Anand gives a positive response the plan A is to go, stay at his flat, enjoy the movie after boozing. The plan B is to quit movie and to return hostel and booze out our sadness, if Anand shows a red signal. This time I took the call of my sister and ended up my conversation, explaining what happened and what is going to. Vinu got the call from Anand at 5:42pm and said that he is coming to pick us to his flat, we gasped at relaxation. He came, we rode to Anand’s flat by 6:22pm.

          Being three at his room, we explained our plan and convinced him to booze with us and the arrangements got started at 7:30pm. Leaving me in his flat, Anand and vinu gone to purchase axillaries for boozing. At 8:04pm, they came in with another ½ Bacardi and side dishes such as chips, grapes and fruits, etc., We started boozing at 8:15pm, and the bottle was empted at 9:32pm. We found it was late to reach KG cinemas to watch the awaited movie. We rode all the way to KG by two wheeler and got a ticket for Anand at time 9:46pm. We found time to eat at nearby hotel Annapoorna, we urged the waiter to serve fast. Finishing the payments at 10:05pm, we ran to our seats at theatre. Fortunately we seated one beside the another.

          The sound inside the box from the viewers was more than the speakers at the scene of introduction of superstar. Vinu got excited and roared with his full throttle with a word THALAIVA. The sound can make goose bumps even to a coma patient. At a funny part, we found OLA autos drive by Thalaivar. Got out at 1:30am, reached the flat at 2am. We opened the second half and boozed till 3am. Making fun of each other, laughing at the above plans. We gone dreaming at 3:30am.

          It was 9:15am, when I woke up. I saw them making fun of me with the last night happenings. Again my phone rang, sister again. She asked me to attend the classes at least today. We reached hostel without warden’s knowledge at 11:15am, and got ready for classes afternoon. Finally, the story ends at classroom with puzzle question session and puzzled eyes on us.
