An Ode to Chai-Shai...!

At a B-School, the monotony of classes, books, hostel life and assignments can turn even the happiest of people into a bunch of gloomy souls. Its 9:40pm, between eating the half-inedible hostel food and running through the piles of assignments and projects, your WhatsApp buzzes: “New Message: Chai Shai Group”! And then we gloomy souls take a break and meet up over some tea, coffee and more importantly, some Gup-Shup with friends!

What started as a group of tea-drinkers, soon turned into a bunch of close-knit friends! And on this eve before the Christmas Eve, I am turning into your Santa and spreading the spirit of Christmas – through these messages for each one of you, Chai-Shai waalo!! So scroll down to find your message…

·         The girl who eats, drinks, sleeps, breathes fashion. From Dior to Apple, her collection of brands is as envious as her knowledge in Finance. From chanting “Jai Mata Di” when she sees a dog even in her dreams, to bringing the house down with her child-like anger, this girl is one firebrand (Neonbrand actually!! :P)! Dikhne main hai yeh tiny tot par deti hai Dilli ke support mein unlimited gyaan, kyuki yeh hai…. AARUSHI MADAN!

·        From industry analysis to being a fellow Gemini, we have a lot in common. But she beats hands down me to win the award for “The Most Dreamy and Lost Person”! From picking up others bags to almost checking into the wrong flight, madam has done it all. While she is capable of betting on eating more Ambur Biriyanis than a dinosaur or not charging her phone till eternity, her sweetest nature make her the best! Khoyi khoyi rehti hai jaise dhoond rahi ho apna guy, kyuki yeh hai ARUSHI RAI!

·     The girl with a million dollar smile and a billion dollar puzzled look. Class samajh na aaye- Panic. Exam se pehle- Panic! Exam ke baad- Panic! Aur agar sab achha hua, toh aise kaise ho gayaaa – BIG TIME PANIC! But still, loves being the darling of Aishwarya 005. From baby doll to pink lips, dancing comes naturally to her. Diet pe rehti hai but khana chahti hai the size of an iceberg, kyuki yeh hai…. AKSHITA GARG!

·        The cool dude of SAAAAP, when it comes to finance he is our Baap! Be it a normal class or a deadly exam, walks in like a stud with earphones on and with a bag that’s never on! Girls go crazy after this Ranveer Singh of NMIMS. He is his madamji’s “Kiddo” and our very own “Bittoo”. Bande mein hai woh dum jo khadi karde khatiya, kyu ki yeh hai… ARUN TEWATIA!

     The one whose walk is funnier than mine, this girl has attitude of a true PCOMer! From sharing her notes that she writes in every single subject to teaching “bachho” before every exam, this girl is helpfulness personified. Hai yeh woh who spreads happiness and love, kyuki yeh hai… NEELIMA YADAV!

·      From a studious, introvert in the first year to a guitar playing “Bro” now, he is the one who has changed the most! He is the champ of operations in PGDM as well as the king of slumber. Dum hai iski baato mein, nache yeh bus mein, brown rice miss karne wala Mangalore ka Rao, hai yeh…. RAYAN FERRAO!

·    This girl is the queen of Economics and my teacher of finance. Bollywood addict and a die-hard Ranbeer Kapoor fan, yet could never beat me on any of the Bollywood quizzes on QuizUp. Loves chocolate to death, hates pretentious people to the core and does not write a word in the class, yet manages to understand concepts better than pro! Udyam ka kaam ho ya Bollywood songs that’s she sings, she s perfect coz ye hai…. PRERNA SINGH!
·      
         It was sometime towards the end of May last year when I got a call one evening and before I utter a word, I hear,”Kasam se yaar roz tension mein thha ki NM Blore mein kyu nahi hua, Hyd mein kyu hua. Aaj convert hua hai kasam se bohot khush hu’! And, till date, his infectious energy remains the same! He is the Jodi-maker of our gang, manager of our plans and hater of all the vegetables eaten by a man! Jisne phone pe kiye kharche more than the budget of the film Vaastav, wohi hai…. RAHUL SRIVASATAV!
·      
          Social Butterfly and the best girl at bargaining! From her ability to convince even a deaf man to buy an iPod to her answering questions after getting up from a nap in class, she is the Teddy of Aishwarya 005! Caring, loving, convincing and gyming seem to be the only four words in her dictionary. Ladki jo de sakti takkar to everyone including Tewatia, hai yeh…. RASHI CHANDGOTHIA!
·      
         The calmest Punjabi Munda on the planet, he is the wizkid of the batch who knows C++ to Java but hai itna bhola ki pata nahi kitchen mein hai namak kaha! Makemytrip.com is his homepage and Bangalore airport his second home, this teddy of my flat is a star PCOMer. FB ki jaan, PJs ki mini dukaan, Dilli jise kehti hai aaja aaja, yeh hai…. ROHIT BHATEJA!
·     
        She is the 'straight hair girl' of Aishwarya 005, with a quirky voice :P ! She loves to get clicked so much that am sure she must be posing in her sleep too! She is the heart & soul of Greenadiers, who gorges on fish and chicken! Iske gusse se bachke rehna degi yeh laats, kyuki yeh hai…. RUNA DAS!

·       Fellow teluguite, he is the mama of the gang! Kanyadaan-ing is his profession and arguing with Mallu his passion. With his new bike and heroic style, expect a queue of girls going all wild! Even after handling all his maamis and regular kanyadaans, iska hai damdaar josh, kyu ki yeh hai…. KANCHARLA SANTHOSH!
·     
     This guy is lost and always in his own world, but jab bhi group mile, toh photo “Uthane” ke liye always hai aa jata! Ops ka stud jo mera flatmate hone wala thha, jise sirf koi ek hi bulati “Siddhartha”. Kyuki hum baaki sab toh bulate hai…. PANDA!
·       
           Next is our funny man whose sizzling chemistry with Sahu can put Hrithik-Katrina to shame and his talkative bakwaas can give a nausea and headache! “Praraanaa” and “Madddan” is how he calls, but his innocent laugh and *Censored* chats make outings with him a ball! Iske plans for equinox are bigger than RBI’s plans by Raghuram Rajan, kyuki yeh hai…. SREERAJ RAJAN!
·        
      Padhai addict and dedication ka bhandaar, this last message from Santa is saved for the PJ ka bazaar! My senti, pakau roomie who spends most of his time on his phone saying “kauna” and dancing to Sunny Leone’s songs, is also my inspiration for studying so much without dozing off! Mumbai ka saathi, ghar ka yaar, kabhi pyaar- kabhi yaar :P !! Iska sense of humour hai itna complex ab kya kahu, kyuki naam hai iska…. SWAGAT SAHU!

With just a few days to go for the college to end, time for me to Thank You guys for making my two years at NM so Jhakkaasss!! Let’s rock the last 90-odd days at NM-B! Milte hai agle saal, till then…. 

MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR!
