Ms Indias relive “Mr. India”

Caution: To relate to this wired description, you have to be a “Mr. India” fanatic.

The greatest good you have while clicking fotos is that you get to observe people and web a short story around them almost instantenously. Yesterday we went on a trip to the Dosa parlor. My first 2-3 hr interaction with parul and swati’s all girl group. Hanging out with them brought back memories of the film “Mr. India” as the Ms indias did resemble some or the other characters from that film.

It started from the description of some very funny incidents involving Ridhima which was then followed up by some live examples of her own. It just struck me that her innocence is the same as that of the little girl in the film who says: “Arun bhaya, Arun Bhaya hum jail jayenge”. Yup, most of her dialogues are just out of the blues, freshly plucked. Swati being the grown-up nani of all full with suggestions and fun filled acts of her own fitted into the character of the more matured one who would then respond: “Ridhi ek din nahi khaoogi to maar nahi jaogi”. Although considering the calorie consciousness Ridhi brings in her diet, she would be more than happy in not eating for 2-3 days except 2 plates of "papita", from the fruit shop next to Panchu uncle's, and this too is only for social cause of lighting-up the world with THE GLOW.

And the characters just fell in place. Remember the chamish, having lenses 7 inches thick looks like the person is facing perpetual hyper myopic blindness. He stars at the end of the song “Ball humari hai humko payarii……” and there he appears at the end singing just one word: “ALLAAAAAAAH”. I can still see parul falling here and there with a better exagaration of “AAALLAAAAAHHHH”. We then come to our Sridevi (Snigdha) : “mujhe apna saara paiiiiisaaa wapas chahiye”.She would have almost given a live demonstration of it, if the cook would have not given her a theekha dosa. I am still imagining how Snigdha would sound in that south Indian accent. Here comes the boss Mr. India himself (or herself), Ritika fit like the final piece in the jig-saw as being a local girl from Nagpur most of the advices about local restaurants and eat streets come from her. Imagine her saying to our Sridevi “Wah!! Kya kamra hai madam , kamre kea aage balcony, balcony ke aage garden aur garden kea age samandar, aur yeh sidhiyaan kamre tak jati aur yehi neeche bhi aati hai”.

Sridevi: “kamal hai !!!”.

As for me “Mugamboo khush hua !!”.
