TO ANKUR...DIRECT DIL SE

This is for Ankur...just for him.
Friend just wanted to say I miss you a lot. I know it sounds a little cliche but that's exactly what I feel. I miss the moments we spent together.When I am alone and feel like taking a quiet, leisurely walk I sometimes wish that you were with me. When I am down and out and when I need reassurance that I haven't lost yet and there is hope still, I yearn for your words. When I feel like wanting to speak my heart and crave for a listening ear that filters all the crap that my mind churns out(I know not much is left after applying the filter),I miss you.

So when you disappear or when I lose contact with you I feel like I have lost something substantial. Something really meaningful. When I have an achievement to share and need somebody in front of whom I can praise my efforts without fear of being judged I miss you. I miss you every time I have something exciting to share. All the posts in this blog were an effort to relive those golden days. Every morning I wait for a post from you that pulls my leg. I wait for witty retorts, the kind only you can make. This place like my life is not complete without your presence.

So if not for your own self but just for me, be a little more responsible and come out of this "self sentenced hibernation". Don't lose your spark yet friend, the world needs it.

P.S: I am NOT in LOVE with Ankur. Any conspiracy theories being floated with content that hints like wise shall be greeted with a similar blog for the source of such theories.

On Abhigya's last Post


Dear Abhigya,
Ankur is one of my best friends and you don't have any rights to make fun of him in public like this OK. Yeah I know that he is weird and his thought process is very different from rest of us but do you remember Einstein he was also misunderstood by his teachers, but later he emerged as the most beautiful thinkers in Science. And also, you can not deny the fact that despite being a man he became pregnant five fetuses (3 in left kidney and 2 in right). So this is enough to prove that he is not an ordinary person like us ( hindi: tuchchh) he is very very different (like Mithun in bollywood, Altaf in Music industry, Rajni Da in Tollywood, Sylvester from Hollywood). We should not behave like this with him. He deserves respect like all these great personalities. So next time please take care while writing anything about Him. I am A great fan Ankur,
I get inspiration from him when he sings Atif's and Altaf's songs he sings their song better then they sing.

INSIDE ANKUR

This post is an attempt to deconstruct the most mysterious and unpredictable of all things-Ankur's thought process. It is one of the least understood phenomena and is widely believed to have arisen from genetic mutations that become apparent when some one from Dehradun lands up in Jamshedpur. So the moot question is why does Ankur have the kind of thoughts that he is famous for?

In order to get to the bottom of this mystery we followed a very methodological and scientific process and the least we can say that the results have been startling. To begin with we carried out the most basic test, popularily known in some schools as "The Dodo Test". For those of you who are confused about what a dodo is, please watch Ice Age and if you manage to find some creatures playing with melons you have nailed it. They are extinct now.The test involves holding a source of a fairly steady beam of light(read torch) close to one ear of the subject and checking if there is light at the end of the tunnel. The result is evident below.

We haven't given up hope yet though. Just as scientists believe that 99% of the matter exists as invisible dark matter, we propose that 99% of Ankur's brain exists as invisible dark gray matter :P.

We all know that Ankur can have some fairly deep thoughts. Where do these profound ideas originate from? Only a genius can make off with Nikita from under Kinshuk's nose. Even the most die hard proponents of the dodo test admit that such an act of sheer brilliance can only be accomplished by an extraordinarliy gifted mind. It was an example of astute planning and deft, crisp execution. We ran a test on IBM's deep blue (IBMs super comp credited with beating Kasparov at chess) and it failed to predict even one of Ankur's moves. Deep Blue crashed when it tried to find a loophole in Ankur's execution plan.

It is a well established fact that a healthy brain can reside inside a healthy body. Its only fair that an invisible brain can only reside in an equally invisible body. However in my position as his neighbour in hostel I had a better opportunity than most others to view this well chiselled marvel of a body. A look at his abdomen(UV filter glasses recommended or you may be blinded by the sheer awesomeness of what you see :P) and you'd know what I am talking about. From what I can vaguely remember(as I too was blinded by the awesomeness :D) Ankur has n-pack abs where n= number of bones in the abdominal section. On further fact finding I found that abdominal section only houses the vertebral bones. So much for scientific precision :P. Ankur has extremely powerful bones that enable him to lie in one position for as long as he desires. It is estimated that Ankur can lift 100 times his body weight. In absolute terms that means he can lift about 50 kilograms :D.

These are preliminary findings of a never ending study. It is not possible for any one us lesser mortals to unravel the mysteries of "dark gray matter" and the shell that houses it. Active participation from your side is encouraged to take this study further. New findings will be published as soon as new data is available.

ANKUR'S PICS

Hi guys...Embedded below is a slideshow of some pics from Abhay's visit to Mumbai last year. Have a look and try to find out what has changed in Ankur. Observations are welcome in the comments section. Enjoy!

WHAT IS ANKUR REALLY UPTO?

Guys just an update...On Sunday evening the impossible happened and I received a call from Ankur. I hadn't expected a call so soon after launching this blog and I had only started taking pride in our efforts here when Ankur clarified the situation. He had called me to ask if I knew how to prepare Pineapple Raita. Man how the hell am I supposed to know this. I can eat loads of it but preparation is something that other people do :D(Ladies take a bow). It turns out that he has a luncheon party today at office and his contribution to it is going to be the Pineapple Raita.

Guys do you really think that Ankur would go to such great lengths in order to feed his 30 odd team mates. I mean we are talking about a guy so lethargic, he complains about having to feed himself. And here's the most disappointing bit- the idea that raita can also be bought from some eatery didn't strike him. This can only happen in 2 cases:
1)He has become extra-ordinarily dumb or
2)He really wanted to prepare that Pineapple Raita (The Ankur we know should have been more interested in eating the damn thing)

I know some of you will argue points 1 and 2 form a cause and effect pair. So because Ankur has become dumber(remember dumb and dumber in chatur's room btw ;))he wanted to prepare the raita. However such deep thoughts aside, why would Ankur want to go to such great lengths for the stupid raita. Does he want to impress someone at work? [:D] Ankur if you are reading this it makes more sense to invite just that someone special for the Pineapple raita than giving your hungry team a free run over it. By the way, you seem to be a very traditional romantic.

Cheers to Ankur...Cheers to the Raita.

Guys ab comments section mei Raita failao ;)

To Chankur: Some things never change

Some things never change and Ankur(or Chankur) tops that list..I know he can

still trance with open eyes for hours and at the same time doing nothing or

following every single daily activity on his job...he had and i am sure he

still do talk stupid and if his ideas(& fantasies) are included in

curriculum (everywhere except NIT Jsr) then politics may not look like what it

is at present and the future of humanity could be better or dull or

both...may be he is programmed that way by Almighty(difficult but i accept

that!!)


He may repel you with his cold behavior and feign ignorance on

why people call him and shower their love on him (of course in RIT lingo).. so

as to shake him off his imaginary world ..but every effort seem to be licking

dust when our dear Ankur accepts that he has been out of touch and ends

every chiding conversation with promises to give calls/write emails ..but only vacuum follows his words..So i sincerely feel that he still needs frequent high magnitude kicks to awake him from his self sentenced hibernation.


All ideas to keep Ankur connected to earth and friends are welcome

Ankur : Let us know which ones will you prefer..[:p]

QUIZ TIME!!!

ABOUT ANKUR

This blog has been solely created for the purpose of bringing Ankur Saxena back to this world. He seems to have disappeared from Planet Earth...only to appear after long intervals to register his presence. Ankur seems to be in grave danger as he seems to be lost on the company of the single most dangerous thing that could harm him...his own thoughts!!! It is quite baffling as to how a guy who used to spend 18 out of 24 hours with us has suddenly gone into a shell...quite a worrying thought for those of us who know him well...Since he is a product of NIT Jamshedpur we all can safely assume that he is not working overtime at work. He is fully subscribes (at least used to subscribe) to the philosophy of hardly working as opposed to working hard.

Infact all of us are acutely aware of the fact that Ankur goes to great lengths to maintain the lowest energy state possible and do as much as he can with minimal effort :D. While I sincerely hope he has changed some of those habits and waking him up no longer requires grabbing his quilt and locking it into another room and sprinkling no less than 2 litres of water on his face, he cannot change himself totally :D.

It worries me that he no longer keeps in touch or fails to keep in touch and we have to call him up and bring him back into senses. I am convinced that it requires a joint coordinated intervention (divine intervention no longer works :P) on our part to bring him back on his feet.

Please use this forum to post your thoughts on why Ankur is behaving in this peculiar manner. We know that he is one the best souls that God created and that is the reason why this is even more important. Kahin hamara dost kisi mushkil mei to nahi?

Post your thoughts freely here(keeping in mind we are here to help Ankur whom we all love very much) and conspiracy theories are encouraged.

Ankur if you are reading this...you too can participate...after all this is all about you my friend :P
