NSIT : The Night that followed......

fter the show finished at 10:30, we realized the last metro had left nd we hd no way to go back 2 noida...So try nd imagine our situation, 11pm, no transport, no place to crash nd stuck in Dwarka for the rest of the nite wid nothn to do!!

As it often happens with us, everybody knew what NOT to do, but nobody knew exactly what to do....So we decided to call up our friend "Ghattu Bhaiya"(who lives in vasant kunj), who ultimately ended up providing us with all our entertainment for the night....The conversation went something like this:-

Ghattu(picking up the phone after 3 calls) - "Hello.."
We - "Ghattu where r u??"
Ghattu - "Im busy, out with my dad"
We - "Hum tere ghar aa rahe hain"
Ghattu - "ok...How many??"
We - "7...we'll reach ur house in 15 mins, masti marenge raat bhar"
(At this point, Ghattu had almost lost his voice in shock and was now desperatly thinking of excuses)
Ghattu - "Umm...."
We - "Chal thanks, aa rahe hain"
Ghattu - "Wait, the house is locked.."
We - "No prob, we'll wait outside....by the way, you do have dinner ready rite??"
Ghattu - "Umm...."
We - "Gr8, thanks, almost reached your house,Bye"
Ghattu - "Wait!!..."

Of course,having acheived our purpose of scaring Ghattu we had hung up, and with some unexpected luck had arranged for a couple of autos....
With our luck picking up, somebody had the bright idea of spending the night in 'CUMSUM', a 24hr cafe cum resturant near Nizammudin.So with a little cash between the 7 of us, we set out to spend the next 6hrs of the night sitting in a resturant with only a pastry each...

Now words cannot describe how we managed to sit in one place for the whole night, too tired to roam about but too uncomfortable to sleep!!
Though the crowd was pretty rocking at first, but by 4:30-5, it also started to thin down...

Eventually the night was lost in a daze of stale cigarette smoke and a LOT of pj's involving ghattu.... Entire songs were made up dedicated to ghattu, which remain popular still [;)] ...

Everybody had tales to share and experiences to recount....by and by the time passed and as the first rays of the morning sun hit our dreary faces, we realized the night was over... looking around the table, i realized it was definetly one of the longest night of our lives, but it was also one of the most interesting ones [:)].....
