My name evokes seemingly unforeseen but actually very similar responses.Infact i have come to the conclusion that similarity of responses to my name prove the utopian belief that we all are basically the same.The word Amitabh has been imprinted on Indian mind along with the indelible 6 feet image of Mr.Bachchan.So anybody with the same nemesis and barely 5 feet 6 inches tall invariably transalates into disappointment.They all try, very hard to cover it, but end up being more obvious than usual.Unsettled as they are,most of them end up mumbling somthing about Mr Bachchan, as if i m not aware of the STRANGE coincidence !!
Sample this one (a very normal response..47.94 PERCENT !! of the ppl i meet for the first time have said that...yes i make sure to keep a count every time i meet a new person.Didn't I tell u that ? ) :
NEW GUY/GAL :"AMITABH".......bacchan ?? huh !!
Me(saying): "I'd love it to be ..but unfortunately it's YADAV...AMITABH YADAV."
Me (thinking):Darn right !!.Ah..finally somebody recognized the REAL me.You know, it's just that these days i m shooting for Latest RGV production which is psycho-quasi-comic-romantic-horrer thriller where i m playing a character one-third my age and what you are seeing in front is nothing but special effects to make me look like this.Don't you want an Autograph or something ?? huh ?
Sample Another(constitute 23.86 perccent of the total respondants):
NEW GUY(only guys no gals): "Jaya bhabhi kitthe hain ??"(Where is Jaya ?)
Me(Saying):"Kash Hoti"(i only wish)....(with a deep sigh to give it the desired effect).
Me(Thinking):Where else she will go ? Cooking Aloo Paranthas for me at home.Won't u join us for dinner ? Abhishek is dying to meet you.
There are many other reactions but i will spare you and me both from the agony of going through them all.
Until we meet next.
PS:Contrary to the popular perception, I like my name very much.
