Here comes a bunch of severely, dangerously, acutely, bored 4 persons on earth. Even though the fourth person on extreme right might have an opportunity to have fun time, but his opportunity visibly seems to be snatched away by bunch of freedom fighters.
How to make Rumali Roti in Swimming Pool?
Down came the reception time. Vinay and his dad made awesome arrangement for hospitality. Among other items in the gourmet, one item was Rumali Roti. Note that Rumali roti needs a big space to keep the burners and other equipments to make. It came during eleventh hour that there was no place to give to the cook to make rumali roti. So a few Uncles came up with this great idea. Use the swimming pool for this. Vinay was like 'Whaaaat?' No point, decision was taken and the real estate claimed by the dried pool was used as a kitchen, probably first time in World.
Rumali Roti preparation in progress, in swimming pool.
The night of reception the bed of bride-groom is decorated for their first night. Jayant, Akshi and Dhavala took responsility of doing this in addition to other such similar chores. While they were doing so, I was sitting beside them overlooking the work in progress. These three will talk in Kannada in front me if they want to keep such things discreet. Alas! little they knew that I can read between the lines.
For some reason I dont know why, Jayanat was busy blowing and sticking Balloons on the side of bed. While doing that said to other two while trying his best I should not get what he is saying (I get a little elderly treatment from them)
Jayant - 'Yaaru bereavarige haasige alankaristaaro avara maduve bega aagutte matte avara haasigenu , ade riti alankarisalaguttade'
(It is believed that the person who decorate bed for others get married pretty soon and his/her bed too gets decorated in similar fashion)
And the three started giggling among themselves thinking that the fourth elderly(me) did not get the joke. Well yeah, hmm, pretty much LAUGH OUT LOUD (lol) ! ..
We had to get to bed early since next day was going to be eventful.
On the next day of wedding there use to be games organized for bride-groom and for the family. When I came out to the courtyard I saw everyone doing some sort preparation which was something similar to what is done during Holi Festival. Upon enquiring I happen to understand that a big pot will be filled up with colored water and turmeric, a coin will be dropped in the water and on count of three the bride and groom has to fetch the coin from water. In the meantime colored water will be splashed on to the couple.
I am being brought up in a state where Holi is main the festival and I understand the nitty-gritty of preparation of Holi. And the nitty-gritty is that there has to be no preparation, no rules, no policing, no civilization, no decorum and no decency. The rule of holi in our state is basically how much 'junglee' can one be.
On the contrary, here in siddapur the preparation in progress was reminding me of my office when a white CEO is paying visit to our India develpment center.
I asked Akshi wassup. She said 'shh..!' we are preparing for this game and she explained me the rules.
It was looking too organized and civilized. Something completely against the rules.
While 'civilized' preparation was in progress.
I thought since it was my domain area, I should take charge from here on. I went back, packed my camera, changed my clothes and here I was, Ready to rock and roll.
First I took a hand full of colors and pretty violently painted Akshi's face and hair. I started to look out for another target. It was a scene straight out of a city in UP where a stray raging bull randomly starts charging at people in market and the population caught unawares start running helter-skelter.
After the raging bull attack.
Now If you remember I earlier spoke about the 5 year old Vijeta who literally made everyone dance? Yup she indeed did..

The water tank got emptied but the energy was still. This is when Giri Jiju came with the 20 litre sealed Drinking water can and emptied it in the Pot for us to continue fun. We could easily see his wife, bhagya akka screaming and shouting at him that there is no water at home. Will he listen? Nopes. Will anyone listen? Nopes.
After every ounce of water got over.
So, water got over with no water even to drink, everyone is painted in pink, green, yellow, and everyone forgot that the colors needs to be washed. No water at home, nearly 15 people to bathe, interesting situation. Giri Jiju came to rescue, he immediately called up a Minivan and took us all to the nearby Dam for bathing. What fun man !
Singing the throat out in minivan
And off everyone was in water
I told everyone to run towards the camera to take a panning shot. This idea did not work too well with small flop show. Check the sequence and notice Meghana (third from right in black t-shirt)..
Go......
Goa........
Gone........
Time to support PM Modi's Swachh Bharat Abhiyan.
The leader
So this is how the first layer of Shaadi Ka Laddoo got over. A ceremony full of events for everyone to save the memory for life. I myself cannot forget the fun for life and keep storytelling this fest to my friends. Vinay's family is a gem and I am glad to have got such gold hearted in-laws.
God Bless you guys both ! .
