A strange Incident happened recently. While i was driving to my shoot early morning,i had to take a u-turn. I saw a gentleman crossing the road without any care of the traffic around. Eyes fixed downwards he was walking like a zombie. The signal was green and though i saw him walking without any care,i was sure that he will definitely stop at the continuous honking of my car. But he didn't stop! He just didn't stop! I slowed down as fast as i could,but couldn't avoid a slight touch with him,by which he was disbalanced and fell. I went out of my car and helped him to stand up. On asking whether he had been hurt or not and why was he walking so carelesslessly,he suddenly changed his mood and became angry! In the mean time a large crowd had assembled to see the fun....some readily understanding the gentleman's mistake and there were those troublemakers who found this opportunity lucrative enough and asked me to take the gentleman to the hospital or shell out Rs 10K!!! Now the man who was supposedly hurt by that feather touch was too eager to leave all this and started walking! I insisted him to come along with me to the hospital if he was rreally hurt! But he was just too fit and fine to come along and afraid i guess when he recognized me by face! But here is the most interesting part....in comes a half naked mad man with dirt all over,chewing a packet of puffed rice or murri,smelling like a garbage vat,hair unkempt...heavily unshaved....and gives a kick on the rear door! I really didn't know how to react! I asked him to move,to which he retorted....."Tv te dekha jay bole khub roab na?...gari bhenge debo!!"......i thanked my stars to imagine that i could reach to this mentally unstable person too,living on the road....at the same time i was concerned with my safety...my car's safety....i knew that one blow from my part in self defence wouldn't be welcomed by the opportuniity seeking crowd who were having a gala time. Next the man started dancing infront of the car....wanted to jump on the bonnet...where i had to stop him! Thankfully a traffic surgeon ,forcefully moved Rambo out of my way and helped me out of this situation,which was irritating,precarious,suffocating yet very funny! I really couldn't find that man who was to be taken to hospital or for whom i was asked to shell out 10K! I really appeal to all in a vehicle or on road to be careful....it is beyond my comprehension as to why one should block his/her ears and attention with an ipod or fm radio earplugs while driving,riding,walking or crossing the road! Such a situation puts an innocent person into a lot of trouble who is taken unawares by these careless people on road or in a vehicle! Rarely do you come across harassment with entertainment like this cameo from the mad man!!
