#19: Face Off_Ajmal Kasab

Disclaimer: The post is totally fictitious and resembles no real interview.


Hello, aadaab, lei ho, aloha, ciao, vanakkam, salaam Namaste. This is your favourite host Shashvat Saxena back after three years in yours all time favourite show…  Face 2 face with Shashvat Saxena.
Interlude drum…
 As always I’ll begin the show with a question that I’ll answer at the end. And that question is… Why it took so many years in executing when it was already decided to re-launch this show? Keep thinking.
Now coming back to the routine. Today our guest, the first guest of this new season, is a known personality, the man himself… Mohammed Ajmal Amir Kasab…! Due to security reasons, he won’t be with us in studio but we’ll have our talk on the telecommunications. Waise bhi you know that mobiles are now easily accessible in jail areas...! So on Re-launching your favourite show Face 2 face with Shashvat Saxena, Let’s welcome Mr. Kasab on phone. Please give him a big hang…, I mean big hand…!
Interlude Trumpet… with slapping… I mean clapping…!
SS: Namaste sir…
Kasab: … (Sounds like crying)
SS: What happened sir? Are you crying…?
Kasab: What else I’m supposed to do. Itni ijjat… itni ijjat to mujhe Faridkot me bhi nahi mili jahan me peda hua.  In India, everyone is calling me Sir… Sir… Mujhe to Sirdard ho gaya hai...!
SS: I’m extremely sorry for troubling you sir. We’ll arrange a Special team to facilitate you Medical Expertise.
Kasab: Indian Government has already facilitated me by arranging special facilities. Thanks for asking.
SS: Sir just a week before on 13th of July went your birthday. Happy belated birthday because now you too know it’s possible for you to have many many happy returns of the day in India after being sentenced to death. Did you get your birthday gift? Did government spend anything?
Kasab: Government has already spent 35 crore ` for me. What else is remaining?
SS: People here would like to know something about your background sir.
Kasab: Well, my father was in business of making DahiPuri, he still is and I never liked DahiPuri so I opt for the only other option for job in Pakistan and joined a terrorist group.
SS: Are you missing those days or want to go back?
Kasab: Not at all yaar, daraao mat. I’m even afraid that one day, another flight will be hijacked to kandhaar and Indian Government will leave me free. I don’t wanna go back there. Even I’m planning to settle down in India like crores of Bangladeshis. And I hope, actually I know, I’ll get my permanent resident card soon.
SS: Sir, I know your time is precious and won’t waste it. So I’m moving for my last question. You are found guilty of murder, conspiracy and of waging war against India and for this you are sentenced to death by hanging. My last question is the most stereotyped reporter’s question. How are you feeling now?
Kasab: Frankly I was really afraid of Indian Police force and Army force when I was in Pakistan. But after trespassing L.O.C, I’m feeling safer than before or actually much famous too. Thanks for making me a celebrity. India is really a great country. Thanks for everything. Please do Take care of yourself because in India, an Indian is not safe. And I guess you are still an Indian. Goodbye.
SS: Goodbye. May your soul rest in piece… I mean, May you rest in peace…
Interlude Saxophones with applaud…
So, Ladies and mentalmen, I mean Gentlemen, here ends the re-launch episode of Face 2 face with Shashvat Saxena and before you switch the channel, answer to the question that I had asked in the beginning is… "Taking a decision isn’t a tough job, tough job is to execute it." and to understand this, the best representative issue is the one we raised today. Signing off now. Do wait for me and some new guests on your favourite show Face 2 face with Shashvat Saxena broadcasting on Channel Random Strokes… Till then See you, Sayonara, Hasta la vista, Rab rakha, khuda hafiz, aavjo vhalaa fari malishu.

#11: I M D I – Revealed behind the camera…

Under the label of I never criticize..., I’m going to criticize my own film I Might Did It (IMDI here after in the article.) today. A brave attempt it can be said to identify the slack side of own. I won’t say it criticism but actually a kind of confession of what went wrong while the making of the film. At the beginning of pre-productions, IMDI seemed to become a real blockbuster due to its blood-chilling, gripping screenplay, the music was already admired by the listeners and frankly a team, after successful two hits of Midnight Madness and Kuchh Manziley Aisy, was confidently looking forward for its hat trick. But… Difficulties started raining two days prior to shooting schedule when Mansi (Played Ishitaa in Kuchh Manziley Aisy), casted for role of Preeti Sengupta in the film, informed that she won’t be able to attend the shoot at the state when we were already missing Hardik. The screenplay, with no other chances left, was modified on the last night before the shoot started. I...

#16: On the Edge...!

A tough decision, I've taken to write this but... This is where I am right now... On the Edge...! It took 12 years and 4 months to begin the first step towards the destination of my life. In march-1998, my eyes saw a dream, a dream to become a Film Director, a dream of receiving Filmfair award and in reply to that a thanksgiving speech. (that i still murmur all the time, off course with some changes always.) A 13 year old boy had seen the future. Time went on and I started realizing that it's not easy to get in the industry. What to do now to get in? What if I give all the things for what a producer needs to hire many persons. I started composing songs. Stories were my companion since long and I believed (others too..!) that I can dance really well. So I had now story, screenplays and songs written as well as composed, and I can serve as choreographer, cinematographer and as an editor too. My confidence started boosting. I kept doing my work with my studies for next ten years...

#18: Case 9571_Mr. Johnson’s murder

It was raining heavily outside. Night was at its darkest. Sound of raindrops was echoing throughout the ambience except at house no 48, Schellingstraβe, Munich. “I don’t understand this at all.” Alfred murmured. “This dead body’s hands are burned, car seems scrap and god only knows why I became a cop?” “Never hate your job.” Henry said while entering inside the garage. “And don’t worry. We are here now.” “Thank god you are here.” Alfred said. “Where’s Mr. Jefferson?” “If his assistant is here, so is he too.” Henry replied. “He is having a talk with family members inside home.” “Let’s get in then.” Alfred said. They entered inside the home which was much like a palace while putting off their shoes outside as much mud was glued to them. A quite spotless hall looked sad. Kitchen was a bit chaotic. A lady was crying loudly on the couch besides a calm young boy with soiled legs. A maid was standing in a corner. And a man with a hat on his head and a pipe in his hand was sitti...
