After the important announcement last week we had planned for the first meet for Bypassins.
I have always seen / experienced ... that anything I plan for !! ... never works as per the plan,
But this time I proved myself wrong... we the Bypassians met near Sampige Theatre on Sunday 31 July 2006.
Well on that day ...till 9 Am I was'nt sure that the meet will happen. Called Gopal... he was ready. Checked with Prashanth .... oops ... he too was ready ...
After giving lot's of assurance to Manisha that this not the kinda meets we use to have in Bhatkal... finally Prashant was granted the permission and we headed to Sampige Theatre.
The surprise guest was Javed... Prashant managed to call him to sampige Theatre...
Gopal was the first one to arrive at the spot.. myself and Prashant were the second then came in Sameera Simha,
Well the mood was already of "Ramu canteen wala"
Even Javed came in and was surprised to see all of us .... but there was one guy still missing....
Guess who ???
This guy was on the way an hour back and still searching Sampige Theatre....
we waited.... waited..... Nope... He was still on the way...... (Nan bartha edini kano... ennu 10 minutes nalli alli ertine)... 10 min .. 20 min.... one hour... the great man never arrived,
Aadre hotte kelbekalla ?? ( Adu ..Prashant hotte) ..... Halli mane'ge hoogiddu aitu Idly Vade jadaisiddu aitu. Coffe'nu aitu...
Our great friend never arrived..... I hope you guessed him right... its our NARASIMHA MURTHY.
Atlast came in on his pulsar with the same old BIG smile on his face. Well he was looking awesome with a Ray-Ban on his shaved head.... (check the Photographs)
Malleshwaram Don Sameera Simha guided us to his official Adda ( Malleshwaram Rly Station) to sit down .. relax and ,,chat.
Enjoyed every moment of it ... remembering the time we had spent in Bhatkal..
The only people who missed out.. Ashwin and Chandru.
Will write more tomorrow....
Till then ..... hoy battene marayre.... Shirur tempo bantu.. kaige tumba kelsa kodbeku .....
