Somen and Hubba had also become aware of the Surabhi and Satabdi issues after the diary expedition incident. It was a patent referral when we tried to disturb Pinky. Pande and I never got bored doing that and each time Pinky realised what a mistake he had done by writing the diary for one day. One fine evening we decided to improvise our prank. Hubba had new inventory mind in terms of pranks. He suggested that we make an art poster which clearly indicates Surabhi ghee and Satabdi train..Pande got excited. I was at the edge as I knew Hubba was good at art and this was a masterpiece plan. We decided to extend our level by posting this poster on the bathroom wall so that everyone has a view of it but hardly anyone would get the meaning because no one knew about train and the ghee. But the very modern art concept that although hardly anyone would understand would make Pinky mad and terrified..
We also included Somen who supported us but had concerns for whether we were overdoing it. Hubba assured that hardly anyone would understand that we are indicating Pinky. Pande added the same verse..," Arre don't take chap...Its Pinky yaar... C'mon.."
Hubba drew a hell of a poster. Almost based on the "Apu - Durga " concept ( Satyajit Ray's film ) it had a village girl with a big handi at the head with "Surabhi Ghee" inscribed on it and there was a train on the tracks very far in the fields but the name was clearly marked on the sides - " Satabdi express"... There was also a one legged girl playing " kit - kit" with stones. The art was amazing and we alsocoloured it. Satyajit Ray would have died again if he saw that.
We pasted the poster on the bathoom wall. We waited for Pinky to use the bathroom which we believed won't take long. He had this sensation quite often irrespective of the seasonal changes. The moment he will see we can make out easily from his facial expressions and verbal reactions. The mouse got trapped eventually. He came running to our room with a horrifying look. What he did not have was a sword. He was mad like anything. Pande , Hubba and I had become united by sitting on one bed and mocking together. Somen tried to calm him down saying it was just a fun. Pinky had a brilliant catching power seeing the intensity of the prank , he could understand the man behind that.
He charged Hubba and asked , "How the hell could you make the sensitive issues so public."
Hubba calmed him down by justifying with the reason that no one would understand the meaning. He added , " Don't worry yaar. We will just bring down the poster . It was only to make you react. Now the objectives are fulfilled. We don't want to make that public."
We all went to the bathroom to bring down the poster and to our surprise the poster was already in the torn and wet condition in the floor of the bathroom.
Hubba and I said together to Pinky, " Hey you already destroyed the poster?? We would have kept it with us like a momento. Was so big an issue??"
Hubba was broken at the sight of the destroyed "MONALISA ART".
I observed an innocent surprised look in Pinky's face while he declined the alligations and told ,"hey I din't do that.. I was mad but how can I destroy such wonderful art. I know the value of that. I can bring it down but how can I tear it and destroy with water..... Believe me..I din't do that.."
We all know that its really difficult for Pinky to lie. But then who was it. And why would someone do that because it hardly should be a concern for anybody else..
We were discussing that in front of the bathroom when Manish appeared and told us that he had seen Somesh ( that wierd yoga guy living in 216) tearing that and throwing mugs of water in the wall.
We really got angry at that. Even Pinky was mad now with anger and rage. Pinky exclaimed , " What the hell man... What on earth concerns him about my Surabhi and Satabdi.. Who has given him the right to destroy my friend's picture.. sorry not friend but brother's picture... I will destroy him..will make that yoga boy shout and cry...."
I thought for a moment that the picture was a prank against Pinky and he might have forgotten that and then I thought if it was something of an appraisal for Pinky then what would have he done. But may be thats friendship..or bro-hood
We all started a cruel plan. It was great when we all planned together against someone not belonging to our group but that was rare. Pande had a big contribution in this. He had brought 2 bananas during the lunch from the canteen. He planned to eat those at some other time. He had to sacrifice those now. We peeled off and smashed the bananas in our hand. Somen was always too hygenic and confirmed to contribute in backstage participation. Our palms became sticky with that. We believed it really looked terrible when Pande commented seeing our hands, " I guess I can never have bananas in lunch ever in my life"
That night we went to Somesh's room. He was sleeping. The lights were off. But the door was not locked from inside. We knew that because it was the usual habit he followed. He had a mosquito net covering his bed. We went to his bedside. Somen was at the door side near the light switch. He turned on the light. Somesh looked at us with the crooked eyes ( unable to look properly with the sudden lights and almost in the middle of his sleep)... We forced in our hands and rubbed his face with all the 8 palms and ran away saying , " Guess which part of our body is that ??"
We locked the door from outside , ran fast laughing and panting but could still hear him cursing loudly at the top of his voice..
