varun Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 From Lurker: Q1) Take a deep breath, look deep inside of you, become a immodest son of a so and so and tell us all what do you think is Varun's biggest plus point. There are three rules though: a) You have to be serious and honest. No trying to wiggle away with a sense of humour. You have to write atleast 3 lines. c) You have to write it in 3rd person. As an example - The best thing about Varun is his lady-killing abilities. Some of his friends think it is his smile, but Varun thinks its because he has buns of steel. Ans) Varun's biggest plus point would have to be his sharp mind. He used to be one of the quickest thinkers out there but has recently tempered his quickness for depth of thought. Also, he's quite mysterious which girls can't get enough of, when coupled with his cute persona and hot bod !! :hysterical: Q2) So how come we never figured out who are the top 3 cricket players of yours? Rant away. Ans) I watch cricket for fun, and am not as passionate as most of you guys here, so you won't get a long rant from me about pluses and minuses of cricketers. If I had to pick, I'll probably choose the following for reasons that shall remain unexplained : Sachin Tendulkar, Curtley Ambrose, David Gower Q3) You clearly are one of the most tech-savvy peeps here, so give a good tip to all the non-savvy people about technology. Ans) Don't fear technology, and don't be ashamed if you don't know something and want advice (even from a kid). Q4) From a guy to another ( girls please look away......you couldnt, could you...) Whats the tougher pain for a man to experience: a) Hit in the you-know-what area? Get your you-know-what stuck in the zipper...and do tell how did you figure that out? Ans) I'd have to say , 'coz a) has happenned to a lot of us (especially while playing), but sounds oh so painful :haha: Q5) The only time me and Bheembhai looked eye to eye has been on Super Selector. No matter what team we would select, he and I were almost always last and 2nd last. How the hell did you manage that? Ans) Naach na jaane aangan teda Q6) Who do you think should be Bakra number 3. And why? Ans) Lurker. Because he would love being interviewed Q7) Do you like to read one-liners or chat type conversations on ICF or do you prefer more thoughtful posts?? Ans) One-liners (if compared to long essays), unless the long essay is written coherently. An ideal post length for me would be one paragraph of around 50-70 words. Q8) Whats your guilty pleasure? Ans) Don't do it now, but used to watch Reality TV shows like American Idol *cough* Q9) Be Vidhu Vinod Chopra and recreate Parinda with cine-stars of 1960-70s. Who gets to play who?

(making the bed in the morning, washing dishes, doing laundry, u name it..) From Gaurav (GKD): Q1) Which is your favourite dal? Mung dal or chana walli dal? :hysterical: Ans) None .. I'll take your question seriously anyway :haha: I prefer "Toor" Daal. Hadn't heard of it before I came to the US, but it takes a lot like what we call "Arhar" daal, which I love. Q2) Do you like friends that spit or swallow? :hysterical: Ans) If they do reach that situation, rest assured I'll be happy with them whatever they decide to do. From apocalypse: Q) Are you eager to get married first or Lurker? Ans) :haha: yeah I'm oh so eager !!! Can't wait !!! :hysterical: From yoda: Q1) how many cars have you test driven? Ans) Lets just say I remember each ride vividly, but I've only loved 1 car. Q2) who is aditi? Ans) hmm i can't think of a dish that's hot and sweet Q3) was the prius worth it? Ans) Aye Aye sir ! Loving it ! Q4) money or job satisfaction? Ans) A bit of both, but if given a choice would choose job-satisfaction first. From Rajeev: Q1) Coming from an army background, weren't you lured into joining the forces Ans) I did get through and could join, but Dad thought I wouldn't fulfil my potential in the army. Q2) Do you believe in GOD Ans) Rational mind doesn't, but I do (kya karen grew up doing puja every tuesday). Q3) If you were offered a job back in Delhi with comparable salary, would you settle back Ans) YES ! RIGHT AWAY ! Q4) Arranged or Love Marriage Ans) Having loved and lost, I don't care !
