Part3 - The Missed Left Turn
The road was narrow and the enthu soared high as we knew that it was close enough, in this high zeal that we all were running through made us miss the actual Left turn which we were supposed to take as directed by some local. The raod took us to some jungle and the road was parallel to the lake, we were under the impression, "Bas ab pahunch hi gaye", here it was figured that the road that we had chosen was wrong and a decision to abort the mission was called...
But still we thought that we still will take our chances with the "Left Turn" and yes this gamble turned out to be in our favor, we had now reached the Khadkwasla lake.
Stunned we stood to see what was infornt of us... A vast expanse of water called Khadakwasla Lake and it was bathing in moonlight, wow said everyone...
"What a marvellous sight" said someone, we fell prey to this natures trick.
We sat there waiting for the worst to happen.
Honk Honk... went the horn...
This was a jeep like contraption with the headlights ON and on a high beam, I had turned back to see one car being stopped for sometime before it sped away, I knew we were in some kind of trouble... And how correct I was...
Some one from the farside yelled, "Kon aahey rey tithey?", meaning who is there. We all turned back, and sensed horror. We knew these were those wearing Khakis and with huge tummies they carry with pride, they were the POLICE.
Now the devil had his say and he pounced on us.
He had his first laugh...

Part2 - The Begining
After we guzzled down those 4 drinks and after it was dictated by The Giant that he were to keep his promise and take Pandey to Khadakwasla we all started started on our fateful journey on this very fateful night which awaited us. And it was crouching out there in the dark and waiting to pounce on us.
Now that we had begun our jorney to Khadakwasla we all felt the need to fill up the petrol tanks of our macho bikes with what they call as Petrol to take our journey forward. The fuel that would propel us to reach those who were waiting for us to be there at that very night was bought, at a 24 Hour Petrol Station, somewhere near Pune Railway Station and now we started towards our destination.
The beauty of the journey was everyone amongst us had the same question running in the minds - "How do we reach Khadakwasla?", Yes you are right, no one knew how exactly to reach there. To be frank I never knew how we would reach there, but still we decided to move on as Abhi had claimed to go there once. Each relied on the other for the road ahead...
"Aisa karte karte", we now reached Katraj Naka. This is the place where Mumbai Bangalore ByPass ends. And I vaguely knew that we could make our way to Khadakwasla from Warje (I had taken the same route once enroute Simhagad) , this is where we made the FIRST mistake...

Part1 - The Misadventure Begins
It all started on Friday, Friday the 20th of May evening 6 o' clock, when we the "Adventure Club Bewdaa's" decided to have a party.
The reason for this ball was that ZERO-ONE had puked in the last general body meet and was supposed to compensate the scene with another round of BOOZE...
It started and I thought it would stop there... but now I realise how wrong I was...
We finally assembled at the Adda i.e. ZERO-ONE's place, I arrived late after having food at home, Pandey and Abhi were there in no time, then came Ritesh-The Gaint...
We had already begun with the Khamba that was already laid open, the SmirnOff Vodka has lately topped our taste buds and our liking for it has grown with time...
After 4 drinks it was decided that life needs to have some fun, some adventure...
And then the Devil struck!!!
It was decided that all of us would go to Khadakwasla Lake to enjoy the moon lit lake, it could have normal but it was decided at an unearthly hour 1AM of 21 May circa 2005... Things started going wrong here... no one knew what was awaiting US...

Memoirs
Man, today was hell of a day...
After a gruelling day at work, I went back in bye lanes of memories...
Yes, the good old days that I had spent back in the Indian silicon Valley... Bangalore...
I visited the yahoo photos pages to see old fotos...
wow... every thing flashed back in front of my eyes... in just a few moments!!!
Those were the days.... but gone are those days... :(
Anyways I had captured all of them in my camera and have uploaded them to Y!ahoo...
So recollection becomes easy...
Remembered those days spent at Pyaasi Haveli and Punters Palace...
and the rafique bhai dosas... I know Atul liked them a lot...
Oh God... please bring me back those days...

I am bloody sick n tired...
I am bloody sick n tired of this stupid IT job...
What am I doing??? I dunno my sole purpose of being here...
Can't help it. This is what earns me my bread.
But the irony is I am very much here...
As Deff Leppard sang, "You can run, but you can never hide". I can run away, but will I be able to hide?
I am quite unsure. This IT world has left me useless to other streams.
I cant go back to telecom (my engineering degree lies in my shelf). Cos I've long unremembered the engineering fundae... Thanks to IT again. And thanks to Infosys.
I am done, am I?, I am not sure...
Uncertainity Previals...
I see darkness in this tunnel.
But is there light at the end of this Tunnel? I dunno.
Lets hope the ray of certainity emerges, atleast someday.
Amen.
