“The Super Six” : Unplugged!
This is the story of our ‘gang of EVS’ – rocking gurgaon at present!
Story of 6 flatmates staying in House No. 20…
Of there sky-high dreams, screwed up office lives, how they sometimes get along and sometimes don’t, and how all of them are – same same but different!
It all started with that legendary ‘Talwar’s PG’! Our unforgettable stay in that place, which brought all of us together! As ‘united we stood’ against the sometimes foolish & sometimes wicked actions of the haughty landlord.
The Gang finally found peace and satisfaction, after a gigantic struggle – when life became mayhem and confusion ruled the roost. Finally, culminating in our Sec-15 flat. After a fascinating 4 month stay here, I present before you – ‘The Super Six’: Unplugged!
Yogiraj a.k.a Ritesh
Being my room-mate is not easy. But this not-so-typical IIT product has somehow managed to bear with me till now. And that’s simply because this – past IIT cracker, present EVS cracker and would be IIM cracker (99.26 this time!) adapts everywhere and fits into every group naturally. He is the driving force behind this blog! Always inspiring me with his critical and supportive comments. And though he may not be the best roomie (in terms of cleanliness), he sure is one of the most helpful & caring people around.
USP: The guy is a die-hard yoga-fanatic.
Yogiraj has a CATty relation with rickster, a close affair with CCD, and is a great fan of – ‘punjab ke puttar’ ;-)
CCD a.k.a Varun
The most mature dude of us all. He does almost everything like a business analyst – in a logical, rational and a calculative manner. And I really like him for this attitude. But the other side of this NSIT engineer is even better. Because he can be an all-out fun loving guy, when the watchword is enjoyment. CCD keeps everything simple and clear. Never afraid of taking an initiative, he is sure to excel pretty soon in his next mission – IIM possible! (We are both together in this dude) :-)
USP: Why we call him CCD? Because he is the Call Center Dude (no offence meant!). And ‘The Super Six’ know the story behind this name.
CCD is the room-mate of rickster (but they are sometimes poles apart in opinion), as I said before – shares a close bond with Yogiraj, and loves – ‘punjab ke puttar’ :D
Rickster a.k.a Rishabh
A four-digit number should be enough to describe him – 99.99 in CAT’08.
And he deserves all of it. The eternal CAT smasher (cracker would be a mild word) of our flat. And there is more to him – a die-hard cricket fan in particular and sports fan in general. The guy always has a humorous quote up his sleeve. He targets one of us on a given day and if you are on the receiving end, then may GOD help you! (He started with ‘spoc’ , then aimed at CCD, but alas the focus has shifted to me these days!). May the almighty bless us all from rickster’s not-so-funny PJ’s…
USP: You know who nick-named him ‘rickster’ – The man himself! And nobody else calls him by this name…
Rickster adores his fellow NSITian, discusses CAT stuff and more with Yogiraj, used to have some serious phagwara fights with spoc and is simply in awe of Goganeshwar!
And we share a common dialogue: Halla Bol :-)
SPOC a.k.a Pawan
Mr. Lightweight happens to be my fellow thaparian! We shared a pathetic PG house during our early days here, then shifted to Talwar’s PG and are again together here. The planner of our flat – he is unarguably the best person for this job. This ‘Punjab ka Puttar’ shares his room with Goganeshwar (the other ‘Punjab ka Puttar’!). He is also the landlord aunty’s favourite. And one of the ‘lucky two’ to have the ‘badi wali’ damsel on his orkut friend-list! (No points for guessing who is the second-one :-)). He takes life by the smooth handle and is one of the very few no-regrets-guy around. Keep it up buddy!
USP: He is the Single Point of Contact (SPOC) of our group!
SPOC simply loves Goganeshwar (different from CCD-Yogiraj affair), and is great friends with everyone else.
Goganeshwar a.k.a Dheeraj
The most desperate of us all (No offence meant!) – when it comes to a relationship with the fairer sex. He wants them and wants them fast! (‘Chhoti Wali’ – Beware!) So much so that he even interferes in other’s affairs. Jokes apart, he is one of the most talented guys in our flat. A true PEC engineer in every sense. He can fix anything and everything. Very health conscious with his ever bulging stomach these days :-). The best biker here and the only other non-vegetarian around! To me he personifies the saying: “A friend in need is a friend indeed”! He is every bit my great friend!
USP: I don’t exactly remember how he was named – Goganeshwar. But it does not really matter. The most hatta-katta dude here! This ‘Punjab ka Puttar’Rocks!
Goganeshwar loves Spoc, is at his ‘desperate interfering’ best with Yogiraj, is not afraid of rickster’s PJ, and is a fan of CCD.
Pinki a.k.a Jitin
First things first – Don’t read much into this nickname. Its only because my dear flat mates think that I become pink and even reddish in colour most of the times (Though I don’t give a damn to it!). Of course I can’t go singing praises about myself, but I think I am an average person trying to achieve my dreams – whatever it takes to fulfill them!
USP: I think I am the only blogger in this group! (That’s because I have nothing better and more fruitful to do) :-)
Yogiraj still rues that moment when I became his room-mate, CCD is going to kill me for publicizing his nick-name, Rickster is going to ‘Halla Bol’ against me for all that PJ talk, SPOC may very well disconnect me from this group – sooner than later and Goganeshwar is desperately searching me now as if hell has broken loose. Infact, I am becoming reddish-pink!! So I better run-away now ……………
P.S. There is more to “The Super Six” and this is only a brief insight! And I would like to hear from all the other Five at least – How was that???
great blog jitin da.... i am impressed but you haven't told people much about yourself... ur welding saga. seems you have a great company in Gurgaon...
one of those reads when i wasnt my 'critical' self, finding your gramatical errors.. there must havent been any, coz they dont escape those 'mature' eyes..
Gr8 job dude!! one of the best description of our flat family... can be turned into a bestseller if written with more elaboration... and dude thanks for the concern with us all... we all request you to fulfill one more desire of all of us... we desperately need good and nutritious food at home. that you can do by bringing to us a sweet caring bhabhi ji!! aur vaise bhi punjab de puttar are betaab for bhangra now... there can't be best occasion than your marriage... House no 20/FF wants bhabhi:)
pawan kumar - bhabhi laane ki zimmedaari tere hi kandhon par hai..
pink - tune 'porn' kumar and googan ke baare me baat nahi uthayi.. and calling mars tha most mature is ridiculous.. nevertheless, a great attempt to describe a highly varied set of people.. halla bol!!!
Hey jitin da...
i read this one as soon as you sent me a scrap me on orkut. but finally sitting down to comment on it:
Your blog just reaffirms my reason of admiring the GOD because he is able to show so much creativity with the same raw material he has for everyone & surely he has managed to send six of his 'masterpieces' in your flat.!!!
enjoy the creation !!!!!!!
hey.. very creatively described ur frnds..!!
my hello 2 every1..!! :)
