The A Div Chronicles : Episode 3 - Anil Kapoor And The Price Of ‘Name’
This post is dedicated to a character called as Amol Gajare, part of our raanti gang at RAIT.
This guy has a resemblance to Anil Kapoor. At least that’s what somebody (wonder who could that be…?) had said aloud in the First Year of Engg, and that name stuck.
Check the below photos out to see what I mean…I bet you'll have a hard time figuring out who's who.
So much so that as time went by, he was simply known as ‘Kapoor’. The lines between fact and fiction gradually blurred, and he was very rarely, if at all, referred to as ‘Amol’.
Anyone asking for ‘Amol’ was met with a hostilely blank stare…
One fine day, a friend called Balan wanted to ask Kapoor something about the exams.
A transcript of the telephonic conversation that ensued:
(Phone ringing at Kapoor’s place)
Amol’s mom : Hello?
Balan : Hello Aunty, Kapoor hai kya?
Amol’s mom : Kaun?!!!!!!
(Balan hangs up immediately, frantically dials yours truly)
Balan : Hello, apne Kapoor ka naam kya hai?
Me : Amol re…
Balan : OK..Thanks!!!!
(Phone ringing again at Kapoor’s place)
Amol’s mom : Hello?
Balan : Hello Aunty, Amol hai kya?
Amol’s mom : Haan hai…ek minute…
