Faneteria

Bentley it was!!!
Infact after posting and shutting down my computer i laughed at myself hard enuff for mom to scream that i had, well, gone mad. Thankfully i mentioned about my war with correct spellings and also i really got confused with the name because the last time i saw a bentley was in 2012(the movie and not the year. XD)

And whats that U.F.O thing at the left corner of your notebook? (looks like i waded deep waters there)

I did write the vividh bharati interview, though i dont know why i converted it in english!!)

I too have given up on radio for more than a year now( obvious reason, hardly a song of my choice)
I heard the miaow interview on 4 june 2009. I can never forget it, i forget none of his.
hey should i post its scribbling?

[edit: before i forget and end up making a double post, thanks for that snap, it was a smart thing to do, instead of typing. And very well, can i say that your writing is kinda doctor's prescription.

The UFO thing is some sort of creature drawn in a different pose on every double page of the notebook.

Which, I've suddenly realized, is why I don't normally write interviews down: they're usually in Hindi. The only mostly-English ones I've come across are this one, the Rajeev Masand one I stayed up once to watch (and, if I remember correctly, wasn't really too exciting except for 'Out comes the wand!' XD) and, naturally, the one where I was the interviewer.

Go right ahead! I'd like to know what he said. White tiger kahin ka. XD

[Yeah, I didn't want to type it up. And yes, though it's better when I'm not rushed / writing in the almost-dark / squashed between the computer and the bed / squealing like a besotted idiot, people have said that to me before. Illegible but sexy. ]

Yeah, sexy.

I will certainly post the interview which was in hindlish after this impending test.

PS: the creature on the rose plant is really cute.

Here it comes.
Considering that my habit of putting his interviews in my diary is almost a recent development, and i put this into Diana only in
2011,we have no choice but to trust my memory. But then i played it over and over in my mind for about a hundred times, i assure
you it can be trusted.
Also i feel so impelled to narrate the state of my KK love back then. I was famished! All i knew about him was that he owned the
voice that did something crazy to me everyday; and was dieing to know more. But i had no means- no TV, no internet(thats another
long story) only a little radio. And one night there was this ad, an RJ called Roshi saying,"Zindagi mein peheli baar,shayad i had
goose pimples while talking to someone or having someone sing a song for me, to know more about it,tune into miaow lady's seat which
has KK on it"
Dream turning into reality.
Also this happened 8 days after the 10th board results were out and all i had managed was a 94% and mom got so upset that she snatched away the radio + i had IIT coaching 8 to 12pm. I couldn't sleep the whole night. I'd give my tuition a miss,what so ever.
Amidst high drama(spilled water in bathroom,slipped and that really hurt..,faked a stomach ache)i struggled and succeeded to convince mom that i had to remain at home.
Thanks for bearing with me, I commence.

Roshi(intro).....aur bahut dard hai inki awaz mein,bahut tadap wale gaane gaye hain...and he needs no more introduction.Mioaw KK
kk: Miaow (like a new born kitten's first ever miaow which made me so gleeful that i couldn't understand the next few things he said,but he said something crazy to which Roshi almost sqealed,he's a wicked man,HA ha)
R: So KK,let's keep this interview in songs,i sing the questions and you sing the answers..
KK: Oh no, make me do anything but sing. i have got a bad throat,some sort of infection...(and if a bad throat sounds like that what a good one will possibly be like?)
R: what will be the fun then
KK: i'll trry
R: when i heard you the first time,i'd had a breakup and i cried so much that my mom shouted- main thappad marke tujhe bahar nikal dungi, u know which song was that?
KK:which?
R:tadap tadap
KK: Oh, i was really lucky to get that song, though i had sung a few before but hadn't met with any luck. I had done a few songs
with Rehman for a Shekhar Kapoor movie and sung 4-5 songs in a movie called 'hum panchi ek daal ke'....in 1997
bechari...movies hi kabhi release nahi huin....acche gaane the yaar...(he sounded a little melancholic and yet almost as if
grinning...how come?)
R: there was one question that had been on my mind...you have sung so many sad songs, and when one hears them,one feels
as if the singer actually went through all that trauma. Tell me did something really happen with you?
KK: (supressed laughter) I meet so many people who ask me the same but all i can say is no man i am not broken hearted or some
thing, i married the woman i loved, why should i be? It's only that once i get the lyrics,i relate, i feel those lyrics, i loose myself in
them ....and thats how,maybe
R: Alright, so this one might be tough, but tumhe apana kaunsa gaana sabse zyaada dard bhara lagta hai, deep and jisme sabse
zyaada tadap hai?
KK: (pauses for 2 sec)
Ding dong. it makes me sad.
R: par woh to itna profound nahi hai..
KK: haan, it was a very tapori type of a song and i didn't make it tapori...maine bahut seriously gaaya hai.( hot, supressed laugh)
R: and the opportunity is right here, abhi jitne tapori tum ho sakate ho utna tapori banke woh gaana gado.
KK: no, i am in a too profound mood to sing that song
R: woh sab chala jayega. I can make you a tapori in a minute. Visualize karo tumhaare samne Rakhi Sawant hai in a mini-
mini red blouse and an extremely mini blue skirt.
KK: (totally amused) woh to bahut acchi baat hai but i am very poor at visualization. Infact before shifting to music, i did a bit
of advertizing in delhi and you need a good visualizing power for that, so i realized that this was not my cup of tea and i should
rather stick to something that comes naturally to me
R: sing one song for poor singles like me.
KK: ...Ek nazar mein bhi pyaar hota hai.............suna hai (without forgetting lyrics.xd)
It's just a look that you need....(sultry)
R: wow. (claps) Tumhe pyaar se bahut pyaar hai na?
KK: sabko hota hai
R: Tumhe thoda zyaada hi hai ( and they listed songs with the word pyaar in them and also how did he manage to sound so romantic)
KK: well thats another thing that comes naturally. It just happens.
R: sing a song for black eyes
KK: aankhon mein teri.......
R: Awesome and mere sar pe baal thode kam hain and i've made a juda of them. Sing a song for that.
KK: umm, what should that be.."boy, hair does rounds..(he did a rap sort of a thing and giggled)
R: hey i said song not an advertisement.
KK: yaar balon pe to koi gaana nahi aata mujhe
R: main gaadu?
KK: haan tum gado
R: phir kehena mat bessuri hai
KK: nahi kahoonga abhi to main khud bahut besura ho rakha hoon but you sound to me like Rani Mukherjee. Do sing.
R: I sound like her for the whole year,anyway...billo rani kaho to abhi jaan de doon(sings)
KK: (gigling hysterically) wow u are the perfect female voice for Anand raj anand,baat karu Anand da se?
R: Ok, so now comes my fav. i am a psycho analyst too, so i'll ask u..
KK: mujhe bahut dar lagata hai psychlogists se, khud aadhe pagal hote hain..
R: but you have to answer my questions
KK: Us se kya ho jaayega
R: mujhe maloom padega tum kis type ke praani ho
KK: fire.
R: which one of these animals would you like to tame
white tiger, panda, chimpanzee
KK: white tiger (amused and excited) {my error; he didn't choose to BE one, but to tame one}
R: if you had to reincarnate, whom would you reincarnate as? Monkey, dog, horse?
KK: Dog (not so excited this time)
R: if you had the power than which one of these species would you wipe out from earth- Anaconda, Shark, Commodo Dragon?
KK: No one. I am a very timid sort of a person, yeh mar-kat mujhse nahi hogi.
R: your results are out. First you chose a white tiger which is rare and symbolizes class. So do you. A rare specie, tum jaise logon ko bachake
rakhana chaahiye because you are a classic, classic romantic person. Ek ladaki bhigi-bhagi si type.
KK: I'll tell that to my wife, (excited, encouraged and sultry)
R: and since u said abt ur wife, i come to your second choice dog which is a symbol of loyality and that is one thing your wife loves the most
about you. She knows ki tum din bhar kuch bhi kharab kam karo, at the end of the day, he's my man.
KK: very true yaar.
R: And ur last answer shows ur forgiveness. It means no matter how much a person might aggrieve you, you can't remain angry for long, you'll soon forgive and
make up, even when you had no fault.
KK: (amazed) how did you figure all that about me injust 3 questions?
R: That wasn't free of cost. You have to sing for me.
KK: Which one?
R: Anyone you like
KK: Aawarapan banjarapan ..........
How was that (extremely sultry)
R: KK, you give me those goosebumps (sqeals). Thanks for being on the show.
KK: Thanks, keep the cheeze and miaow, miaow (kitten like and that was enough to kill me)
R: soooo sweet.

Mmmmmm.

Sugar and spice and everything nice.

Thanks kappa. I read somewhere that our memory cells work on the principle of training. Once you have given a stimulus, buds are formed and on repeated exposure to the same stimulus (read revision) they develop crosslinks and become so firm that if i met with an accident and lost my memory(hindi film style) and the doc played a KK song for me, I'd suddenly remember every thing from my past( too filmy,huh?).
And yeah that movie was tara rum pum. Not heard the songs though.

Oh my gosh. XD forever. I want this interview. XD

The kittenishness was indeed adorable, but there are so many other tiny things which I am being driven insane imagining him saying. The straight-up unequivocal Fire. , for one - and the equally frank 'Sabko hota hai.' I mean go on, drive me wild, why don't you. *delicious shiver*

I...can imagine him getting a little huskier with what's apparently a sore throat. Except for the part where he doesn't feel well, poor darlin', it isn't an entirely unpleasant idea, that.

I can also address he sounded a little melancholic and yet almost as if grinning...how come?, not least because of the fact that I've often done that myself: it's the sad/happy version of bittersweet, where a situation is tragic but also somehow ridiculous. 'Acchhe gaane the, yaar,' like chill out, jo hua vo hua, you know? Not that I was the one to hear it, of course.

That question about whether he was brokenhearted sort of threw me off, I'll admit, in the same way the BBC female asking if 'out-of-body experiences' was code for being drunk threw me off, simply because I've never thought either a possibility - and both times, I was right. I think I basically know him too well - and I know you're all going to pop up and say that I don't actually know him that well, but as I've said before, his soul is in his music, right there for anyone who has the capacity to feel it. As I once found unbelievable and these two interviewers prove conclusively, not many do. It's a good thing he was in the mood to laugh at it. (Also it's adorable.) Oh, and the Rakhi Sawant thing? Honestly, what sort of psychologist does this female think she is? I love him for handling that situation the way he did. 'Vo to bahut acchi baat hai', firm dismissal, all is as it should be.

"Ding Dong. It makes me sad." XD. XDXDXD. I love him so much. XD

Also, how are singles 'poor'? I'm technically single, but I've got a KK and a Caffeine and quite a few fictional people without being romantically involved with any of them. Out for conformity, are we, RJ? (Sorry, I'm being the 'catty' part of the erstwhile jingle for that channel, but seriously?) Plus her asking him about black eyes and juda-fied hair and stuff made me think I could have been a lot more forward with him than I was. Even though my variety of forwardness is rather less explicit.

"Mujhe bahut dar lagta hai psychologists se, khud aadhe pagal hote hain." You tell 'em, KK. XD

Though the interviewer did manage to redeem herself somewhat by her analysis of his answers. All three were absolutely spot on. "...which is rare and symbolizes class. So do you." APPLAUSE, LADY.
Quoting from a certain inbox conversation I once had with Sukhi: "In short, it isn't only me who's a hopeless romantic at heart. XD"

...And I can imagine the sultry how was that? and it is killing me. Though 'keep the cheese'? What?

Thanks so much for sharing this.

That is a logical explanation. A logical, adorable explanation. XD

Science students (mostly) are destined to be logical. And when they are in love with somebody as adorable as KK then...... You know what I mean.XD
