It was 3rd April 2012. All eyes were on the ‘SET MAX’ TV Channel. It was 7.30 PM. The countdown began. 10, 9, 8….3, 2, 1…oho! The Big B was on the stage with some dance performers. Amitabh Bacchan performed a superb elocution of a good motivational poem composed by Prasoon Joshi. Always take a rebirth to play cricket in India.
The drummers of the ‘1st Project’ group came in. They were wearing no clothes in their upper portion of their body. Then it was ‘Ravi Drummer’ with a unique hairstyle. The drums were transparent and the moment he was hitting those drums with the sticks, the drums were producing some electrical sparks. Dynamic Drums! Isn’t it!
Long time ago, two people sang a song, ‘Krishna nee de Hare…come back the allah….come back the Rama…come back and save this world.’ Yeah! Yeah! It was the ‘Colonial Cousins’. They were back again to perform on the stage, but, this time, they sang, ‘Somebody tell me…kahan hain Janabe Ali…Dil Churane wali..’
Don ko pakar na mushkil hee nahi…naamunkin hain…but, Roma was available on that special evening. ‘Saam hain….jaam hain…aaj ki raat…hona hain kya…khona hain kya…’ Well, when the Don comes back like a King, no one loses anything but gains only, though, the Don becomes a ‘Kaminey’ for his junglee billi in the midnight.
If Samir was giggling with Sidhu and Harsha while enjoying the comedy acts of Dr.Shinde, then, on the other side, Miss Vijaya and Mr. Kapoor were also keeping people engaged with the show. Gaurav kept on catching people. Some said, ‘Pune has the best stadium’. Some said, ‘I prefer Deccan chargers, not the local team.’
Chennai Super Kings won this tournament for 2 times in a row. So, they deserve some rounds of applause. The Miss Chopra started to ask some questions, but, the Cool Captain proved through his answers that he is ultimately a very Diplomatic Dhoni. The Tamil song, ‘Nakamuka’ was not enough to make them dance.
Have you heard of Bebo? Aha! Not the social networking site, but, the heroine of ‘Jab We Met’ or rather the famous ‘Chammak Challo’. Be careful about this hot and beautiful lady from the Kapoor family. Anytime, she can teach you the lessons of ‘Pyar ki Pungi’, though she may perform Modern Mujrah to give free offers of her heart.
Ok! Ok! Ok! Now, it was time for the ‘Michael Jackson of South India’ to do some ‘Mukh Kaala Muqabla’ on the stage. He was bang on target to his competitor by asking the question by himself, ‘Main aisa kyon hoon…’ and he rightly proved that he is still the No.1 dancer of South India as his name has both ‘Prabhu’ and ‘Deva’.
Everyone was staring at a big poster on a four-wheeler. Oho! The most ‘Wanted’ ‘Bodyguard’ entered the stage in a ‘Dabaang’ style. All were ‘Ready’ to watch his performance. But, no one expected him to say that ‘Tere Naam’ se ‘Maine Pyar Kiya’; ‘Mujhse Shaadi Karogi’ because he is the Sallu Miyan, the Bad Bachelor.
Now, the former left-handed spinner and a terrific player of defensive stroke called up the Wall, the Dada, the Gauti, the Gilly, the Viru, the spinning Paaji, the Daniel, the White and the Mahi. The old ‘Dinanath Chauhan’ entered the stage to request all the captains to sign the ‘MCC pledge’, after all; Cricket is a Gentleman’s Game!
Oho! After eating up almost all the food items in the menu, how can you forget the last item, the ice-cream? Similarly, Katy Perry entered the stage with a mixture of hot and sober dress. No one hated her but fell in love with her after seeing her lovely eyes and a good performance. Welcome to India and its “IPL-5 INAUGURATION”.
