Chatur chaar bade hoshiyaar

Long long time ago, four blokes called Virdi, Vikram, ROS and Sash met on blogsphere. In spite of never having met each other, soon they became fast friends. Their friendship spanned across three countries and four time zones.

It was amazing how close they were, in spite of the distances and the differences in between. Each one was fiercely possessive and protective of the other. It's so rare to have friends like these, who are always there for you, who will never judge you, whom you can run to when the whole world seems like it's turning against you.

Sash, terrified of the possibility of anyone else penetrating the group, promptly christened the group 'Chatur Chaar'.


Each pillar of the Chatur Chaar has his/her own unique characteristics.

ROS, the one who gets senti when we say she's getting senti, then pretends to get angry at anything and everything, scares the hell outta us, and then says, "Arre I am not angry re… main soney ja rahi hoon."

Virdi whose belly holds the record for the most elastic material ever invented, is forever jealous of Sayesha's hands and often, due to a lack of other things to say, says "Thrrrbrrrrt" and "Khi khi khi."

Vikram, the chick magnet who spends most of his times cracking jokes at bars that earn him free beers. Chinese girls on skis are particularly enthralled by him. We often tease him that one day some chick's bf is gonna beat him black and blue.

And Sayesha the smartass who goes around making fun of everyone, says she's taking a looong break from blogging, but comes back promptly in less than a day (ROS even nicknamed her PGM aka Post Generating Machine). Can get unreasonably jealous of people who try to get too close to her Chatur Chaar.

And here's the Chatur Chaar anthem.

ROSes are red
Virdi
s are green

Vik
rams are black & blue

And Sayeshas are the PG machine.


The Chatur Chaar exchange at least one group email every day. In spite of the different time zones, everyone adds to the freely flowing nonsense in the emails. On most days, while ROS and Viks are getting ready to go to bed, Sash has reached office, but the Kumbhu Virdi is still sleeping.

And yet, everyone is cc'ed in all the emails.


But one fine day, Sash broke the Chatur Chaar rules.

She sent an email but left Vikram out.

And here it is, the elaborate plot, expressed through a string of self-explanatory emails.

Note: Colours of their respective emails were chosen according to Sash's poem.

Hey beautiful people,

I know I know Viks is not in this email thread. For a good reason! Bhai log, apne Vixie Pixie ka budday aa rahela hai 30th March ko! I know it's a long way off, but I have an idea and that needs time. Can you imagine how thrilled he'd be if he gets a single card signed by ALL of us??? I suggest I sign and send a card over to Virdi, then he signs it and sends it to ROS, and then ROS signs and posts it over to Vik. Bahut mast hoga!!

I have a very suitable card ready.. and it has three sad dogs representing the three of us! Take a look and if you guys are on, I will post it to Popo as soon as I get back from Manila.


Whoala suddenly life is exciting again! :D

Address is no problem! By the time the card circulates to Virdi, hum log poochh lenge... bahana marenge ki when I go to the US, I'll meet him na! Sab ho jayega don't worry! :D

Oye Popo tu kahan hai??? Are you on about the plan??

I was considering getting Kinnu to join in too (he and Viks seem very close, jab dekho magaa-magaa karte rehte hain!), lekin as far as I know Kinnu (ahem!) all this senti stuff is too much for him... besides hamara card Oman ki reth mein kahin dafan ho jayega! :O

So let's just keep this to the chatur chaar then? Because all of us are senti aatmas... hehehehe :P

We must all take a photo of the envelope first when it reaches us, and then a photo of the card after we write the message. Phir stages number karke usko email kar denge. Or ROS could try and print it out and put it together in the card! Oh yeah that will be fun! "The making of the senti card" Hahahaha! :D

I'm already thinking of writing a mast post on it after the whole deed is done! :D

Oh man I'm SO excited!!! Yeayeayeayeayeayeayyyyyy! :D

You guys did not react to the card :(

Popo, pahuncha ya nahin?? Remember to take pics of the envelope with your address on it, and the very pretty Singapore stamps, and then after you write your message take a picture. Please leave space for ROS, as it is, I already took like half of the total space (sorry!!!)

Sheesh! Ab kya karein???
Tu kab bhejne wali hai?

Virdi should not ask at all. Because the last time Viks suspected, he only suspected ROS and me... so Virdi should be the total surprise.. .ok I can ask but how???

GUYS!!,

I just got home and found a FedEx package lying next to my front door. I saw the sender is ROS. I knew you guys were upto something.
I feel so embarrassed now. I reminded all of you of my birthday and you guys were forced to send something out to me. Sheesh.

Anyway, THANK YOU ALL for the wonderful handwritten messages. I'm touched to say the least. Noone has ever done anything like this before. All my friends don't care about my birthday and so do I about their birthdays. You guys made me feel so important. I have never felt like that before.

You guys are the best. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart. Love you guys. :)

Sayesha - My brain tells me it was your idea. Correct me if I'm wrong. I don't wish to take away the credit from Virdibhai or ROS.

Virdi Bhai - Arrey yaar, thank you for your letter in Hindi yaar. It's been close to ten years I read Hindi. Dil ko choo liya re. :)

ROS - What can I say? Born to irritate me? Hahaha. Bring it on babe. Apun always there to get angry at your "girly" comments. All that aside, thanks a lot re. Noone ever made me feel so special in life before. It feels a little weird but I like the feeling. I want to ride on the feeling even after my birthday is over. Hahaha :)

Anyway, you guys are too good re. I'll probably copy - paste this on my blog along with the pictures of all the wonderful, heart warming messages you sent.

Maan, I can't believe I got so freakin' emotional. Need to grab a beer. FAST.

Thanks again guys. You rock.

What is the best time to call you guys? I know when I can call and irritate ROS but not too sure about Sash and Virdi... Please let me know. I want to thank you guys and irritate you over voice. :P

Oye! Vikkii
Glad u like it!! Believe me We knew it was your birthday! This card has been
circulating for more than 1 n half months from all the way to NJ from S'pore..The idea is of Sayeshas..who else :)
We dint want u to get a hint thats why we were pretending and we had to pester you in order to get your address! And thats why we had that convo when u called me a week back asking"Viks,tere lease ka kya hoga...tu abhi waheen rehta hai kya"...Man! we had to literally hunt to get ur address:))
I am allergic to perfumes..isliye didn dip that card in lavender perfume bottle..remmber that post of yours;)?
heheheh..we are touched re!!

Hehehehe! ULLU Viks! You think you reminded us of it??!! You will be shocked when I blog about this, when you see how long we have been planning this for! And how we pretended to not know your birthday, so you wouldn't guess anything...

You "reminded" us about your birthday only coupla weeks ago. The card has been to three countries!! It's been going around for months re! Tu hi soch kaisa logic hai tera?! :D

You can call me when I get home tonight... around 10:30 pm my time :)

good morning... whats happening...
he is now the unemployed youth of India and acts like one... Mom can i have tea??? Can someone iron my clothes??? where is the TV remote??? Yaaaaawwwwn...
Virdi rubs his eyes and sees that Vikram has said I LOVE YOU to everyone...
oye sun Vikram i know you love me and all that but I am very straight... as straight as a Pencil...
and yes everything was planned by sayesha but but but if i didnt send the card from India to US her plans would have never worked out... so i was the most important guy here... ;-)

Offo ullu Virdi, why are you trying to steal Viks' thunder? You had your chance bacha, now get off the stage! Ek toh barah bajey utha hai Kumbhu uspar uthte hi nautanki shuru?!

Viks, don't listen to the 12-year-old!

This post is in celebration of you being 25. And of you being you.


Happy birthday, jaaneman.

We love you. :)
