A Traditional South Indian Pelli Chupulu (Marriage Proposal) - Satirical



I am going to write in short about what happens at a traditional south Indian Pelli chupulu.

The Gal's father comes till the bus stop to pick the guy's family... The guy's family reaches gal's house..
The gal's father talks to the guy...asks him about his job...
The guy looks for the gal... but she is not to be seen
The gal's mom goes and gets something to munch... and also arranges a chair for the gal
The gal comes out and sits on the chair...
The gal's father says... "This is XYZ...This is abc"
The guy says Hi...The gal just smiles
Then the Gal's mother gets tea... everyone drinks tea while the gal's father talks to the Guy...
The guy keeps talking and talking
The Guy's father tries to make the gal talk... asks.. "how do you go to office"
The gal reply's .. "office transport".
Everyone is done with tea...
The guy's father asks the gal if she wants to ask anything to the Guy....
The gal nods her head saying No...(Not actually saying, just nods)
The Guy's father asks again.. the gal again nods her head..
The gal's father says that we asked all the questions that my daughter wanted to ask...we have nothing to ask
Then the Guy and the family leave.

Now that you have read about traditional south indian pelli chupulu... read my experience too

The Guy's father comes till the bus stop to pick the gal's family... The gal's family reaches guy's home..
The guy's father talks to the gal...asks her about her job...
The gal looks for the guy... but he is not to be seen
The guy's mom goes and gets something to munch... and also arranges a chair for the guy
The guy comes out and sits on the chair...
The guy's father says... "This is XYZ...This is astonish"
The gal says Hi...The guy just smiles
Then the Guy's mother gets tea... everyone drinks tea while the guy's father talks to the Gal...
The gal keeps talking and talking
The Gal's father tries to make the guy talk... asks.. "how do you go to office"
The guy reply's .. "office transport".
Everyone is done with tea...
The gal's father asks the guy if he wants to ask anything to the Gal....
The guy nods his head saying No...
The Gal's father asks again.. the guy again nods his head..
The guy's father says that we asked all the questions that my son wanted to ask...we have nothing to ask
Then the Gal and the family leave.

The moment i stepped out of their house i was like
#&@*&^# What nonsense.... Did I come all this way to talk to Guy's Dad??? Am i going to marry Guy's dad??? I just can't believe this meeting is over and the Guy didn't speak at all and now they are going to ask me if i like the guy??? If those two golden words wouldnt come out from that guy's mouth i would think he was a wax model from Madame Tussauds

Crazy Days - The End

Finally the crazy days ended....!!!
Yup... Wednesday was the last crazy day. It started with nice suprabhatam in my Manager's car and ended with me running away finishing the dinner and skipping the DJ.
Did I say, that i walked the Ramp and was named "The Gyan Guru Of The Account" ???
Yup....


I, a person who is scared to be the centre of attraction stepped on to the stage and stayed there for complete 60 Seconds. Hats off to me..*claps*
Well, this Ramp walk gave me an awesome Idea.
All these days i used to think, how should i convince my parents for a court marriage, to avoid me sitting the whole day on the stage while hundreds of people stare at me.... Now I need not convince my parents for a court marriage. All i have to do is to convince them for a night time muhoortham and make the audience section dark :)
Parents bhi khush... mai bhi khush !!!


Ok now... let me not divert the topic as my marriage is quiet far. So, this was the 2nd stage performance of my life time with the 1st being a dance performance in 7th class.


Now what should I say about the second thing. "The Gyan Guru Of The Account"
I got a 250 Rs. Lifestyle voucher as an award.
I feel this award was totally rigged by my event manager, because I don't have "Gyan" as to what can i get in 250 bucks at lifestyle....
So, I throw an open offer.... Who ever can name 5 Useful things which can be bought from Lifestyle for 250 bucks ...will be named as the Guru of This Gyan Guru :)

Crazy Days - Continued

My office mailbox is giving me nightmares...
My onsite manager says ...you are a senior now... act like one
My event manager says... there is still no progress... start showing some progress...
My mind says .... Which is the way to Himalayas????


Have you ever thought that if you pass this interview you will be the most happiest person on this earth???
Believe me, every interview i have passed has caused so much trouble in my life that, i regret the moment when i stepped into the interviewers room


My first interview - After a lot of suspense, results were out and i was selected for the job. My mom cried out of happiness and i cried cursing myself for getting selected. This is the job i am still struck in.


My second interview - After wasting one complete saturday at an office in hitech-city i got the call, you are selected. Again my mom cried out of happiness and i cried out of confusion. Bearing the confusion for complete one month i decided not to join and literally had to get rid of the HR telling her that I am getting married and going to US :P


My third interview - One full hour, the interviewer asked me question. After 4 questions, i was least bothered to listen to the questions as the answers to all the questions were "Sorry...I donno". Looking at the expression of the interviewer i was happy that i was not selected. But, unfortunately he selected me and now because of that my mailbox is giving me nightmares. I am a BCM-Star.


From last one week, I am getting nearly 30-35 mails everyday in my mailbox out of which i couldn't understand a single sentence till date. I know the mails have questions, as i can see the question mark in every mail and also a few people reply to those questions as i can see them replying to the mails with question marks.
My 2nd biggest problem is that i don't get time to read those mails
And my 1st biggest problem is I get those mails
