Sameer and me were on a trip to Haridwar on a bike along with six of his friends …some where around 2/3rd the way, I was happily singing the song
“Dharti sunehri amber neelaaaaaa
O, dharti sunehri amber neelaaaaaa
Har mausam hai rangela
Aisa deh hai mera”
“Veer Zara Track”
The scenery was good. The sun was rising and the wheat crop were looking like fields of gold…this just gave me a feeling of being a king.
The scenery was some what like this.
Sameer Dev..,,,,,,that ass hole was riding the bike, we were at a good speed of 80 kmph….far away I could see a truck coming…my favorite friend here, fell asleep….yes, he fell asleep riding the bike….I ,fortunately was awake……………..I didn’t know that he was asleep…….,I turned and looked at the field again …admiring the good mother earth which was spewing out gold and getting back to my song.
“O Dharti sunehri amber neelaaaaaa
O, dharti sunehri amber neelaaaaaa”
I turned my head on the road again I could not believe my eyes, the truck was at a smelling distance from the front end of the bike….
We would have become Late Tejaswy and Late Sameer Dev if it wasn't for me.
I will just pen down the thoughts that came to my mind
“What the fuck…….”
“What is Sameer doing?”
“Why is he doing this?”
“What wrong have I ever done to him?”
“Is he planning to jump over the truck?”
“Has he seen some Telugu move, like this one, where Chiranjeevi skids his HORSE (yes horse) below the truck ?
Or even worse,
“Has he seen this BalaKrishna Movie where he stops a moving train and makes it move back.?”
I am a Mithun fan, but let us differentiate between Reel life and Life under the truck
I mean the first one (Horsey one) on a bike is still do able….but this one (BalaKrishna train stunt) is impossible to replicate….I don’t want to take chance with Sameer saying
“As god as my witness, If I am drunk let this truck move backwards”
Yes dude you are drunk, I don’t know about God but I am a witness, but I am pretty sure Newton will be pissed if God breaks all of his laws of Physics,
Laws of Motion, Laws of Inertia, Laws of Gravity (Some thing of this nature )
“Is he even awake??”
I some how gathered my wits and caught Sameer by his neck and shouted “SAMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEER”
That bastard had fallen asleep, his head was down and he was dozing off, by my violent shake and shout, he got up, saw the truck and thankfully to his reflexes (read as GOD at work) he turned the bike in the nick of the moment and we escaped death by a hair line…..
Well that’s not the end of it….he gathered his senses raised his left hand in an expression to say sorry…..
“What the fuck……Sameer have you lost it…….How can you fall asleep while driving a bike, And to add insult to injury you are saying sorry????????”
Hero Honda CBZ. "Take your stride with you when you die"
There was nothing I could say or tell him …….
Well that was the last time I sang that song riding on Sameer bike………
And that’s not it….Sameer was leading all the way while driving the bike…we are a a pack of 4….they had a hard time catching up with us…because they were safe drivers..unlike Sameer Dev here.
The rest of his friends were just following him,they account that we have had at least 6 near death misses.Well,I certainly do not remember any one expect this one, and as Sameer says”Takes everything in his stride……Sameer”
It was the morning after my bday.It could have become the day I died. (Yes, Wouldn’t that be nice)
I am just plain lucky to have a friend like Sameer………..With friends like him and Sandy (wait till I write a post about him ) ….I just don’t need enemies

Well…..each and every word mentioned above is true. we did go to haridwar….i did sleep while riding the bike…and yes, we did manage to deceive the death, though in this case it was just ‘touch n go’. but then, doesn’t that sound a lot of fun…..come!!!….wen you are 40 u got to have some stories you can narrate to your kids. Trust me guys no kids gonna love a sissy father. My friend here doesn’t realized that i have given him such a thrilling story for him to leave his kids spell bounded. Come on teja, accept it, the story is kick ass n that’s precisely the reason why its here…on your blog. So thank me Teja for adding the much needed spice in your life!!
Kindly ignore the grammatical errors. Its all my keyboard’s fault.
Well I am quite sure that no kid likes a sissy father but ..to become a father you need to be alive!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dead people under a truck do not become fathers.
Well until and unless of course they leave their sperms in a sperm bank and wait for some lesbian to take up their sperms.!
But I am not willing to wait that long
Let me just say that I took my own precautions!
LIC ka Insurance
And a quick trip to a sperm bank
Well This post is amazing and hillarious is in its own way. Great composition along with pictures.
Life can change withing seconds. Since nothing happened we can joke about it and have fun and a split second of Delay and there would have been too much agony.
