Sunday at Felix`s!

The Evam Play (The odd couple) last Sunday was bit more than just being hilarious, I was able to connect with a character, my friends could connect, everyone would be able to connect to some character. It was about two divorced men sharing an apartment, Oscar and Felix. Now Oscar, is a sloppy and casual fellow like my dear pals shiva, jithesh, et all and of course yours truly!

But hey, I also know a felix, the unavoidably adorable Sujoy! Oscar was easy to depict, just two words, but its not all that easy with felix. So in the next few(hopefully!) lines i will try to put up a picture of felix together in the best possible way. By the way i know this felix for five years now, so backing myself to do a good job.

Shiva, Jithesh and myself were at the play while (F)Sujoy was back stayed back at my place to arrange songs on my laptop, E: Drive for songs, ARR separated and the rest by language, after language it shall be genre of music, Phew! And the assortment goes on!(and oh, for music for which he couldn’t decide the genre it was “assorted”!).
We bid good bye to a couple of our friends(whom I`m tempted to call the cuckoo pigeons!!) and got home by 6 15 in the evening. The first question from (F)Sujoy was how was the play and the second, Why are you late???? (the play got over at 5 30!).

The weekend had to be kept alive, we thought we could head out for dinner and that way, the evening will pass. Now that’s when (F)Sujoy steps in with the suggestion of cooking at home, thereby saving on the little cash left. After the grocery shopping, we reached (F)Sujoy`s place, footwear and helmets outside, footwear inside the little racks provided and helmets over it, step in and don’t bang the door, gently close it, mind you these are just entry regulations. The music(at optimal volume) shall soon be switched on and first timers to a particular song are made to sit in a particular position initially(start point). They can start letting their hair down, only after they experience the music from the start point. I went through it all because I did not hear the sajna sajna number from Honeymoon travels! Now is that my fault!!

30ml of whisky, with another 30ml of water and ##ml of coke(meticulously measured), made up the drink. Glasses clashed, fire ignited and soon all of us were upto merry making. Oh the cooking starts soon, (F)Sujoy cooks and others are strictly asked to do the jobs assigned, not more , not less. The onions have to be cut in 1x1 cm dimension and you are allowed to be a little lenient on the tomatoes and the most important thing, nothing should be spilt around(especially on the bed!). Tobacco ash has to be in plastic cups with water (all this even after having an ash tray at home!), failing this, you have to clean the spilt ash area(if in bad mood) or you will have a mobile ash tray with you in the house!

Anyway dinner time at 8:30 and what sumptuous and delicious food!! With paper under our plates and food over it, the next hour was just another of those yap(fart) sessions. After the amazing food, the Oscars of the house fell flat, lazy to even wash their hands, whereas our man (F)Sujoy was doing the dishes! We asked him to do it tomorrow and pat comes the reply “come on macha, you know me, I don’t like unwashed dishes in the sink”. Ok fine, who can stop (F)Sujoy!!

So that’s how the night dawned on us we were soon back to our nests. Ok, this was just a sighter, for those who plan to visit his place in Chennai, give any of the Oscars a ring and we will give you the full blown picture.

Thanks for reading until here, hope I did paint an accurate picture. The world of “Oscars” can comment on the accuracy! 

P.S: Cuckoo pigeons, don’t take it to heart! 
(F)Sujoy- F for felix.
