Why this Kolaveri Di ???

Do I really need to put any clever lines to jumpstart this blog..?? ..the title says it all...

"Why this Kolaveri Di" has created quite a furore..a week full of FB updates...this time Kolaveri updates took over the Thanksgiving updates..consistent updates mussay...all my friends clinging to the word ...it has toppled everything that was popular before this...for once it might have even taken over Rajni-isms or Sardar jokes...
And I got to know the global popularity of this chartbuster wen one fine morning mom called up & asked.."Hey did u chk out this Kolaveri song?? I kinda like it !!!"
I was Knocked out !!! Now this is Kolaveri Di !!!

Though literally it means "murderous rage" the word has become the most popular word to save ur day..:-)
So wen u don't find a better word to fill in go ahead & use Kolaveri...
While it's applied as : "Why this Cola Very D " &  Mr. Joker utters "Why so Kolaveri Di???" I'd like to take a step further to use it -

We could have high defect bugs defined as "Kolaveri"...so instead of Showstopper u see KOLAVERI flashing in Red on ur screen..

Kolaveri should be the answer to all "Good Questions" If my manager pesters me next time with irksome questions I should be allowed to say Kolaveri & get away

No appraisal forms please...i m so sick of them..ask me to put Kolaveri in the form & rest all assured(well u already know wat ur fate's gonna be..even though u put pages of appreciation abt urself in tht form)

And now my favorite part..being the movie freak, u tend to get there don't u ??

Hollywood can cash on a lot from this word...Y don't pick up the word & create sequels, trilogy out of it ??
Mission Kolaveri, Mission Kolveri Di ...Mission Kolaveri Tri ??? :P
The Lord of Kolaveri, Kolaveri Panda, Kolaveri Age-I,II,III.. A Ferry named Kolaveri, When Kolaveri met Di, Wolverine could be name Kolaverine..and the famous dialogs could be tweaked :
"My name is Di, Kolaveri Di"
"Houston, We have Kolaveri"
"Hasta La Vista, Baby" can be replaced with "Kolaveri, Baby"

Apna Bollywood is never behind..imagine Gabbar guffawing & asking Sambha:
"Wo 2 they aur tum teen...fir bhi wapas aa gaye"
"Sardar...Kolvaeri Di"

"Pushpaa...I hate Kolaveri...re"

Rockstar to KolaStar & Ra-one to Kola-One.. Kolaveri can kill thm all !!

I can keep churning Kolaverisms & before I get deeply engrossed in Kolaveri-fever, I'll call it a "Di"
Kolaveri is definitely going places !!

Mission Impossible !!

Gosh...I've got plethora of trainings to complete...u rem those mandatory ones ..don't u..???
Jeezzzzz!!!....1+ month on beach & I'm so lagging behind!!!!

This is the thought churning in the techie's head every day..rather each EOD ..so next morning after the traditional chores..

(u know rt..a day in techie's life involves ...abusing traffic, abusing oneself of being Goofy, GFN(good for nothing) ....vowing each day to become faster, smarter, fitter..... somehow reaching ofc..logging on to FB...(till outlook syncs all folders)...chking everyone's status....pics of ur long lost buddies who are settled in the US ...how thy seem to be enjoying every weekend of their lives...wen u r weekends look so messy n just fly by ...then there are some ppl who u hate so much but thy are still on ur friends' list..looking at their happy faces makes u feel oh so pathetic abt u r life...tht's wen u logout of FB to chk Outlook..only to lock it in less than 2 mins n rush out to grab a cup of coffee)

....the techie(referred to as "U" going forward) registers for some training after careful R&D(asking colleagues which one's easy to wrap up & has easy assessment Qs)
"Industry trainings ...Reforms , 101,202 bla bla bla..."

Okay..so the training page opens...YAWN!!!!!! couple of lines are read through fast,with an exclaimation "Big Deal" ..u move on....
10 lines down..."YAWN 2"...oh oh. u are stuck on the same line for 15 mins...login agn on FB...refresh it cpl of times...nothing worth ogling..
Open up IBNLIVE..."Mayavati to churn out 4 states outta UP...!!" hell yeah..this is the only way she can giv Chetan Bhagat a tough competition..."endless Aishwarya & Big Boss updates later..u flip back to the training page ..
Line 15 agn..for 5 mins "YAWN 3"..so u fall back on the age-old sleep bhagao formula..Music...!!
You queue up some latest songs on the media player & take a shot at the training agn..
"Firms will likely need more capital...........Kun Faya Kun..faya kun faya kun....."  "YAWN 4"
change the song...
"In the near future...Keh do my chammak challo....surely m gonna get u ..."
"YA YA YA.....oh YA YA YA ......Ohhh yay yayyy"....

Your mind totally off the training...u start a random topic of conversation with a colleague right next to u over instant messenger(IM) & then invite more colleagues on the same chat..pull someone's legs & then make a last attempt at the training ..

"Tougher standards linked to...Sadda Haq...etthe rakh ......tum logon ki iss duniya mein har kadam pe insaan galat...main sahi samajh ke jo bhi karun..tum kehte ho galat....!!! "

There u go ...u r so deeply engrossed in the song..everything in your life can be linked to it...this is the perfect song to describe ur life..so u go back listen to this song 4 times on high volume..start headbanging...and get carried away to some unknown destination...!!!

And then the IM flashes again...time for lunch..friends calling up...u shut down the song..rush off for lunch...& are elated that u only have to deal with half-a -day now..as goes for the training page::
"The page has expired due to prolonged inactivity.Please re-login to continue"

The Techie's life moves on..!!
