“Antel” Inside!

Who is an intellectual?


According to our Bible Wikipedia, An intellectual is a person who uses intelligence, i.e. thought and reason and analytical thinking, either in a professional or a personal capacity.


The word ‘Intellectual’ can denote 2 types of persons:


· A person involved in, and with, abstract, erudite ideas and theories.


A person of notable cultural and artistic expertise whose knowledge grants him or her intellectual authority in public discourse.


Uff… ki beginning mama!!!! Trust me guys, this is my first and last venture to write “intellectual” stuff. Being from the class of “Uncultivated”, I am a person who has a low browed taste” in culture and art. So, I embark on this endeavor to find out why am I a non intellectual? (Main aisa kyun hoon???? pobblem ta asole ki?)


So this thesis of mine goes out to my philistine and uninitiated friends!


All of the above was Wikipedia stuff (what else can a non –intellectual, without a writing prowess, do?) so, let’s list it down…….




  • I love Govinda and David Dhawan….. (khali fajlami!!!!)


  • I don’t understand Franz Kafka!


  • I don’t understand the intricacies of Hussain’s evocative paintings!


  • I don’t find K.K. Menon more glamorous than Shah Rukh Khan.


  • I don’t understand the clichés used by great filmmakers (does anyone remember the cobwebs from Guide!!!!)


  • I don’t understand why Gabbar Singh killed an ant and didn’t ogle at Helen after “Mehebooba Mehebooba”!(does that conclude Gabbar was gay…..because he keeps mouthing ”Kitne aadmi the?”)


  • I prefer the 22 yards over “Do Bigha Zameen”! (Howwzatt!)


  • I indulge in “Inferior forms of arts!” like punning and mimicry! (dara ektu orna ta thik kore ni……Asha kori bhule jasni ke bolechilo!)


  • I prefer Nandan because of the wrong reasons. (Tikit hebby sosta kaka!)


  • “Totallyyy”prefer Bappi da over GnR and Metallica. (“Chirodinee….”…..uff total emotional…..getting goojbumps paagla!)


  • I am not a Bob Dylan fan.(I still pronounce Dylan and not “Dyeee”lan though)


  • I can’t ask questions “with insights” stretching up to 45 secs to a minute…..


  • I prefer six-packs over AF-PAK!

And the list continues…….now I know why I can’t be clubbed as an intellectual….


But I really want to be one because the great thing about being an intellectual is that if you bore people they still think it's their fault!!!! Even I want to get passes for the film festivals! So, here begins my pursuit to become one……


Ahhhh forget it! I would rather stick to my over the top self and keep tickling you guys with my non-intellectual gibberish!


Lekin Jaane se pehle……….ek non intellectual entity ke total non-antel dil se nikla hua chand alfaaz………


Bhabcho pore ki sob jata, likheche kisob shit…..


Thik dhorecho amar matha e ache total chhit!


Sukumar Roy Bhogoban r Gurudev amar Mir…


Punning jodi lage bhalo, kha paagla kheer!


Cricket amar passion kaka, kobita amar hobby….


Comment koro noyle sala EK CHOBOL E CHOBI!!!!!!

    Especially, the chand-alfaz..(total fida, mama!), the gabbar being gay joke...
    But, i have have an intellectual hunch, you are soon going to turn into one; then let us see the deconstruction to your obtuse montage of nihilistic and below-par reflections(...Eees, "er-na" or-na shobar-na khulle gelo bolte giye, dushtu!)...

    :P
