About maneesha

Finally My dear friend maneesh(aka Maneesha) is leaving all of us and going abroad for his higher education,, i wish him all the best for his future..

I met him first when he joined siso just after 10-15 days i joined.. but became close friends when i was in Korea and he was in Turkey....

So here i describe him with my style in categories....

Internationalism:

• He is more of hollywood than sandlewood..
• More of New york times than Times of India (like he knows what barrack obama eats for break fast, but dono why reddy brothers are battling in bellary)
• Reads many novels ( read books of Jeffrey archer and Sydney sheldon but dono who is D.V.G and dont know a single poem kuvempu has written though they might have told in school prayers)
• I call him a mobile oxford dictionary.( he has meanings or synonyms of all english words atleast which i have asked him in cubicle, but dono the meaning of "pataragitti/pancharangi" simple kannada word)
• Knows how to use Debit cards at ATM but dono the concept of credit cards till now, what kind of charges they put and why?
  

Very innocent and decent

in some aspect this point holds good only till he met Partha(his driver to SISO & double meaning expert, )...

Quick intro about partha: He has the potential of delivering a double meaning statements at any given point of time & in between any conversation...
Just before his wife was expecting a baby he promissed not to eat non-veg, but just few days later he stated..
soon after her daughter was born he use to tell he would never see / talk wrong about girls which he sees daily outside... but dono what happend after 1 week or two. he was back in form :-P
Now he says when i chat him to korea,, "en maga hudgiru hingidare illi????
thats the kind of person he is.... But everyone liks the way he is...
He and maneesh would make a gooooood pair. (i dont want to elaborate more on this sentance)..

Like

• Now he know how to give a glance at most of the chicks walking on the footpath (towards MCC) even while you are driving at 40-50KMPH @ 7.30 AM in morning ... and thats the efficiency he has gained being with partha
• After seeing at some girl if i comment saying, that girl is not good looking, he simply says,, look at the things needed. and thats how his expectations are.
  
• for this i dont get english words adjust. kalla ondu hudgina line hodita idda who gets use to alight at malleshwaram, (A prod of BITS and loook wise OK good). one day he comes in office and says, today i saw that girl was staring at her mobile for long time in cab, I think she would hav been reading some pdf formatted novel.. dabba nan maga, avlu tirgi nodilla anta bejar madkonda ansatte ;-)
• He still dint know any abusive language in kannada at all till he joined us mainly with partha...
  
• he knows what "Bitti ____ sikkidre, ______"
  

now i will leave partha, May his soul rest in peace. (dont take it other way)

Next category:

about his decentism and idiotism:

• He is a fond child of his parents. both working in banks. And this idiot dont know how to get a D.D (somberi nan maga)
  
• Dont know 90% vegetable names . in kannada especially i can say 99%. But now he know how to coook Chitranna and what ingredients he has to put. (hange aagbeku ninge)
  
• Knew how to ride 800 before he joined siso itself, but dint know kinetic honda (2 wheeler) he learnt it so late in his life, and till the last day when i use to go with him to home, i use to drive.
• looks like he knows tennis very well, but me never seen him playing really, but he has waved his hand (for ball serve) in air million times in these 2 yrs... (thut ninna kai novu barta irlillwa.. ( olle CRPF police navru galiyalli gundu hodidange, galiyalli serve madta idde))
• I have never seein him stand still naturally in any photo.. always says, i have to b natural and gives some poses
  

Now next category Stingism:

• According to him "you should never climb stairs by running, because you may sweat a lot, " which implicitly means you cant wear T-shirt next day :-P (parvagilla maneesha i will follow you)
• when he was in turkey he use to live with bread / jam / chocolates... (courtesy: adarsha).... ( magane hinge maadu U.S nalli, ondu hudgi patayisoke agalla yake andre neene badkirodilla)
  

Now coming to some good thing about him at last..........

some of the qualities i like most in him

• Very keen learner
• Quick learner,,, (maga carrom nan hatra ne kaltu, nange solis bitta)
• wants to learn out of domain things also,, always open to learning,, ( nan thara antu alla, life nalli java andre kaliyode illa anta kootidini, adakkoskara android ne bittu bitidini,,, iga estondu jana force bere madtavre)
• Good photographer even with his digital camera... ( maga nan sony 3500mh cells himalayage tagondu hogi kaalu ettisbitta 900 rupayi hoytu)
• Good traveller, and has seen so many places in india already..(paapa adarshan inda greece nodoke aagilla anta onde kannalli alta idda turkey nalli)
• Very kind hearted fellow, never likes to say NO to some one..
  
• Always helping to others..
  
• Always jovial..
• Punctual, (respect to seniors by sending them daily status updates thou he dint had any work that day...) ;-).
• He can adjust with any group... and takes no time..
  

Atleast maneesha i think you will be happy to see last category is speaking good about you...
Hope you dont scold me.... I have taken so much pain( infact i enjoyed typing such a big article @ 1AM on 6th-Aug-2010 sitting in office and delaying the cab by 1 hr to complete this..)

For now i think it is enough....

If i sit and think i can find many categories like this, but i dont want to see him angry while reading this or embarrased while sharing this link...




And for maneesha and others...
all the things that i have tried to speak is just based on how much i have seen him and know him, being his cubicle mate for a long long duration..
i think i will never be with any person for so long time in any given company.... (conditions apply unless she is good looking girl) dont mistake me after alll...

I will read this article some time again and try to tweak it...

And by the way the let me introduce all the characters whom i spoke about here with some funny but memorable moments:



Keep looking how he poseses in each pic... find a single photo where is is normal except one he is sleeping








This was maneesha Extremely loaded..

Characters were :
double meaning partha:


Turkey Adarsha:



Body builder adarsha
Eligible police adarsha, make him stand at any traffic signal in blr and collect bribe, no body will ask you an ID proof for him, :-P..


I will introduce him next time:
time being called as Super subbba
This is karthik, the manager, same one who was takeing care when all of us were fallen asleep(except photographer :-P)



Very important guy who owns almost all these pix:
Tapori dhanaraj.. i will try to explain him in next blog
Very good kannada speaker, and poem writer too who translated a tamil poem in kannada whrough google translate to present it to his so called girl friend...

He calls maneesha as Maneeshi.... (korean style)


Some group pix:


And the our manager who is taking care of all when they all are asleep.......
I think if u have noticed he has taken care of us in other ways also.. scroll up and see.....









just for posing @ casafete




See how decent i am posing, and how he spoiled the pic....



Thats ManZu sigining off for now...






Some of maneesha's last day interesting pics....

siso gave him sweets in form of monthly b.day celebration...


opp to siso(lake view office) taken frm tridib



























maneesha eating the great Amma's pastries... (modle bitti andre kelbeka.. naanu maneesha first line nalli irta idvi.. especially for that main cake which they use to cut in main building...) we both use to carry one box to our home saying, i will give it to my sister) hahaa...


This photo is just 1/2 hour before he was kicked off from siso...
he went to clearance with HR.. so he was scared that his PC will go off... so he pasted the poster : "call me @ mobile, b4 taking it"...

I have to share one thing about this PC..
i became die hard fan of the farmville game 1/2 mths back when we all use to sit without work, so i made maneesha to open a facebook a/c and made him to play game, but he some how dint find interesting in it.. so anyway that doesnt bother me,, i made similar bakras like him to play farmville just for me (free gifts)... so i use to go to their pc and stand behind them asking to send gifts.. and at some point of time i saved his facebook pwd in browser so that i use to login his pc whenever he goes away and send gifts to me... ) it was so much fun...
he still wonders that i still play that idiotic game, though i also know its dumb game and big time waste....

and look at his helmet.. i think its same helmet which kareena uses in 3-idiots movie.... i enjoyd wearing it and riding to house along with him many times...
