SAL-MAN-IA

Tuesday, October 27, 2009

That's a word coined by me. Its short for Salman Mania.

This is a particular form of Celeb Craziness, particularly for Salman Khan. I don't understand why people are so crazy about celebrities. I do not find anything different in them. They have two eyes, so have I and I have specs too. They have two ears, so have I. They have one nose, so have I, pretty clean too. They have a pair of lips, so have I. (Should I say kissable too... :p)

I'm getting on your nerves. Isn't it? Well, there were some people who got on mine too. Salman aaya yahan, to mujhe kyun tang karte ho yaar? I got a lot of calls from people asking me if I went to see him. I told him I've already met him earlier on a flight from Bombay (sorry Sena-men, both Shiv Sena and MNS, but it was Bombay then) to Goa.

I got carried away. I'm here not to describe my personal experience, but to comment on 'Celeb Crazy' people. Well, thousands of people had gathered here and in Sumerpur, a nearby town, to have a glimpse of the much controversial actor. And at both the places the police had to lathicharge to control the crowd.

Amazing !! Isn't it?


I had a lot more important things to do than to bear the lathis of police. In fact, I didn't had any chance of facing the lathis, as Salman was a guest at a friend's hotel. And he had invited me to be a part of the function. Still, I preferred to stay away from the actor's blink-and-you-miss visit. He was here to attend a roadshow to thank the people of Sumerpur constituency on the behalf of politician-turned-actor-back-to-politics Beena Kak (in the pic), Cabinet Minister in Rajasthan Government, MLA from Sumerpur and filmi 'maa' of Salman Khan in 'Maine Pyaar Kyun Kiya?'. He also endorsed Rajasthan Government's much hyped 'Harit Rajasthan' programme.

Falna, Sumerpur and Jawai Bandh were on national news for two days. People said I could've been easily on TV. I would prefer to wait than be hit by lathis to be on TV. I can't handle this kind of celebrity crap !

I wish God could spare some time and re-consider the architecture of the top floor of these 'Celeb Crazy' people.

Peace !

Unveling of the Crap

Saturday, October 17, 2009

Hello everyone !!

To start with, let me (or rather us) wish u a very Crappy Diwali (oh.... here I go again....) I mean a very Happy Diwali and a prosperous New Year. Actually, I'm trying to concentrate that the basic theme of this blog (intentionally named 'Crapologists') is just crap. I wanted to say Happy Diwali but it seems as if I have had an overdose of the word 'crap'. I hope you bear with this hangover :)

The theory that forms the base of this idea is simple. We cover the fact that talking sense isn't our piece of cake behind the veil that a li'l sarcasm, a li'l laughter and loads of crap is all that is required to live a healthy and wealthy life. (* T&C Apply... lol) This theory is proposed by two great minds - Ankit B. Rathod and Garima Ranawat.

Let me introduce ourself one by one - the Crapologists, thats what we are. Myself, Ankit B. Rathod. I have a one-year-and-ten-days old (at the time of publishing this post) blog 'Good For Nothin....'. Guys, don't try to make a stereotype of me just by the names of my blogs, its just a coincidence. I have started 'Crapologists' with a dear friend of mine, Garima Ranawat, who has no work-ex. She has no blog posts to her credit. And she has only a few comments (only two or three.... that too on my blog) in her jhola (read : bag).



Crap - the dictionary meaning of this word contains a few adjectives : 'nonsense', 'rubbish', 'junk', and the likes. But let me assure you, our crap makes sense. And as our tagline suggests, we are 'making sense out of crap'.

As Garima put it, "A crapologist is a person who specializes in handing out crap but presents in such a way that it appears to be a fact."

Strictly following the definition, the prime goal of Crapologists (we prefer this name... for obvious reasons) is to discuss crap, crap, a li'l more crap, and oh did I forget to mention, crap ! No serious business here !! We crap, you crap, we expect you to crap on our crap :) Confused? Don't be.... 'coz if you get confused in our intro post, I don't think you'll be able to handle our forthcoming posts. All I meant to say that we expect you to comment on our posts. (Didn't I mention the 'crap' hangover earlier?)

The basic idea behind this piece of crap was to present our crap to the audience and know whether it sells or not ! I mean crap sells. When something as disgusting as India TV can survive, I'm sure our crap will do wonders. No competition with India TV in any manner. We can't stoop to that low. Humaare bhi kuchh standards hai. ;)

The golden rule of this blog is : 'Only crap, nothing else !' Simple... Isn't it? What's our USP? Crap. Didn't I mention? So bear with our crap, enjoy our crap, love our crap, hate.... Naah... You can't hate our crap !! We're so sure about it.

Wish us loads of luck and get loads and loads of crap from us :)

PS : Jokes apart, even if we say 'jokes apart', don't expect us to be serious. The crap goes on.... ;)
