What people around me say:
‘I’ve grown taller’ (this from a 23 year old)
‘My hair has shrunk again’ (this ahem was me)
‘Hi hw are u? Let us frnd, tk care bye.’ (from the wonder that is Orkut)
‘ Come on, you have to tell the maid. Just say, look boss, this just isn’t hapenning, you need to come on time’ (this again, me. I don’t know why they reacted by falling off the bed laughing)
‘Dekh, you need to be allowed to kill at least a couple of people and walk away scot-free. Okay, so not everyone’s a Modi but come on, we’re overpopulated. ‘
(SA in a violent mood)
…
And remember the song, Tum toh thehre pardesi’? Someone I know has it as their callertune. Reminds me of the time I found everyone dying to call me so that they could hear Kumar Sanu sing, Jiye toh jiye kaise bin apke’. It had somehow become my callertune. Ideasmithy has a fantastic caller tune, so does Childwoman, it says, we will rock you :) I want the ‘emotional atyachaar’ song as mine. Or maybe, something by U2.
What song would you choose as a callertune?

    Thengyu, thengyu *ahem*. Thing with a neat caller tune is that people sound disappointed when you actually answer. :-p

    On my callertune wishlist (and that stoopid kutta-network doesn’t provide these):

    1. Aaj phir jeene ki tamana hai (Guide)
    2. Vienna waits for you (Billy Joel)
    3. I want to break free (Queen)
    4. Across the universe (Beatles)…words are flowing out like endless rain into a paper cup.. :-)

    Ever heard that ‘Very happy in my heart, dil dance maare’ gaana? I know someone who had this as his caller-tune and no, he wasn’t an autorickshawalla but an uber-cool editor for a style magazine. ;-)

    mine will be “sympathy for the devil” – please allow me to introduce myself….

    on a different note, sometime back i had the following lines as my email signature;
    Pleased to meet you
    Hope you guess my name
    Whats puzzling you
    Is the nature of my game

    …one day i emailed my manager from my personal account and forgot to delete my signature. he asked me what it was and i said i don’t know, and that’s the end of the story:-)

    Sniff,sniff..do I smell a class bias here?

    Anyway,I would settle for “eemosanal atyachaaar” anyday :) .I love Patna Presleys.

    I was gonna type “mine’s Freebird” and then I see that first comment up there by Blankspaces :) Wait, mine is the ringtone though, not callertune.
