I met Dipankar few years back during my trip to Kolkata…he was my 2nd cousin…He had just returned to India after his studies from London..he was working as an Business Analyst in one of the biggest corporate houses...we used to move around the streets of Salt Lake sharing our experiences of life..roaming around we were discussing about the pranks and pranksters..He shared with me one of the pranks that his long time childhood friend TITLEE used to play on her friends..
Dipankar was quite a reserve type of guy..jyada kisi se bolta nahi tha..He used to share his thoughts and feelings with his very closest of friends and acquaintances…and he was very close to me..as we were of the same age group..Moreover he never faked anything..that was his best and biggest of qualities..
As Dipankar started to share..i felt as if it was just happening in front of my eyes..
Dipankar and Titlee belong to the same school Modern Radiance Academy...Titlee was his immediate junior and was the classmate of Rhea..his neighbour..Titlee and Rhea were best of friends and hence was a regular visitor at Rhea’s place... Rhea and Dipankar grew up playing together..and in due course Dipankar and Titlee became good friends...
Titlee as the name suggests was full of chirpiness and very talkative in nature..din bhar batein karna aur hasna...she kept on laughing the whole day...his friends used to call her..Kauwa..as she used to talk too much...and was no more than a tom-boyish type character..fighting and bullying guys of her class...Rhea used to say all these to Dipankar.. He used to enjoy and laugh on the same...
As time moved on Dipankar completed his schooling and finally left that place and went abroad for his studies. After 9 yrs through Facebook he regained contact with Titlee... facebook is really a very nice tool to get in touch with old friends...earlier it was orkut...but facebook has almost toppled the orkut fan following and converted the mass to Facebook Fans...
Anywaz Dipankar called Titlee after getting her no. and they had a nice chat..almost after 9 yrs.. its nice to come in touch of old mates specially the ones of your school..today in this busy world whenever I come down from my work and lay down the sack..i remember the days when school se aane k baad..sidhe khelne jaana hota tha..and now everything’s is changed..I miss those days a lot..
Anywaz back to dipankar’s story....Dip (aka Dipankar) asked Titlee that are you still the same..talkative as before..bullying guys...She said even more and now is a great prankster.. TITLEE passed her Grads and did her MBA..and so she shared some of her pranks..some cant be rated as a prank but rather as a cupid sought of activity..as she never ever had hurt the sentiments of those with whom she had played her pranks..TITLEE as her name was a butterfly jumping from one place to another and spreading the colors of life..was same as before to the surprise of Dip’s imagination..as he became more introvert with time..she kept adding colors in different dimensions within her life...
One of the pranks of Titlee that Dip was saying and bursted LOL...ROFL...a rare scenario if Dip is laughing out Loud... there was one guy named Ratnajit in her university..doing his M-Tech..and Priyanjali was her wallmate in her hostel...Priyanjali was doing her MSc. Titlee came to know from some of her reliable sources that Ratnajit and Priyanjali both used to like each other but never had the guts to see each other..Titlee was expert in spying..she used to keep both her ears and eyes open wherever she used to go..and had lots off assistants in her spying (I guess inspired by Detective Nani)..
Titlee’s hostel used to serve dinner by 7.30 and priyanjali used to go to the mess by 8pm. One fine evening Titlee and her friends thought of playing a pranks..As Priyanjali went for dinner..they entered her room from the window side..took out her phone and called Ratnajit saying that “Hi, this is priyanjali speaking and I want to be friends with you”. Ratnajit was on cloud nine...saying this she hanged up the phone.. Now surprised with the happiness and shock Ratnajit called Priyanjali back..This time Priyanjali herself received his call and was taken aback by surprise finding him call...but was very much happy to find the guy on whom she was having a crush.. And with these calls their friendship started and both of them started seeing each other...
Till date both of them don’t know who called Ratnajit and what happened actually...both of them were happy in their old world..But TITLEE deserves the kudos for playing the CUPID..if something untowarded had happened and their plan backfired..it might had landed them into trouble..but alls well that ends well.
Dip was all praise for TITLEE for doing this..akir Do premiyon ka Milan jo karwaya usne..
ROFL Dip narrates how one of her pranks revealed the hidden character of a girl... A flirtstar of their batch named Arun Singh Saini... He was one guy whose words were always coated with tons of sugar and can easily make a girl his fan.. (As Ranjeet and Jeevan of yesteryear movies).
Arun’s nature was known to everyone...Abha was Titlee’s junior... Titlee had a very helpful attitude in her institute, So koi bhi problem ho juniors ki sab Titlee k paas jaate the... One day abha came to Titlee and said “Mam, who joh Arun sir hai..bahut ache hai..mujhe roj bahut ache msgs bhejte hai and he is very nice and mujhe bahut samjhate hai and bla!!bla!!bla!! ” Titlee and her room-mate had gone nuts listening to Abha’s same story almost everyday.. Titlee started spying and wanted to see what exactly the matter is....Then she came to know that Arun was already engaged and to their surprise it was one her classmates..
Now Titlee wanted to get hold of Abha's cell so that she can see what messages Arun used to send and what the hell was really cooking.. And to just adding to her surprise and her fortune..Abha lost her sim and Titlee found that some where near her room.. “Really Fortune Favors the Brave..My dear friend”
To the surprise she found out that the whole story was indeed a mess... Acha Arun was good at studies and he had a nice fan following. Abha's inbox was filled with all romantic messages.. And now the real curtain fell down from the whole story.. Abha was also flirting with Arun and just to take some advantage of his studious character she intended to try the same.. TITLEE was all in shocked to she the split personality of Abha..
But Abha was still in the mirage of imagination that Arun was attracted towards her but dint knew that Arun was also making a fool out of box in her :)
Now Titlee decided to burst out the mystery that was going around.. and the best way around was GOSSIPSS!!!!! ladkiyon ka favorite past time... Titlee started her gossips in such a manner that went on to reach Abha's ears in such a manner that all her overconfidence came down to ground zero all off a sudden..
Finally Abha realized her mistake..
Dip was all praises for TITLEE.. however and whatever pranks she used to play.. It went to the benefit of her mates..

Really awesome.. is the first thought that striked my mind..
A colorful and cheerful girl having different colorful shades in her life and thereby adding dimensions to her life and spreading colors in other life..is worth to be praised... Dip said she is as chirpy as she was ages back.. bas she had one complaint..yaar main moti kaise banu..as she was still the same lean and thin as during her schooldays.. She used to joke saying.. “Yaar main eek din 12 kele kha gayi moti hone k liye..but kuch nahi huwa” Dip just laughed out saying this.. Now as she is working towards shaping her career she shares all her pranks with Dip..
Dip still calls me an say about her pranks and keeps laughing at it..
Listening from Dip about all her pranks I thought of just jot it down in a single plane.
One should know how essentials is one’s life..it may be for himself /herself or may be for some others.. May be directly or indirectly.. What I felt Titlee was one like that.. I hope all goes well with this pure hearted girl.. May she achieve the pinnacle of success in her life...
So here’r ROY sigining off for today.. waiting for a new face and a new story..
