SLUMDOG ENGINEER !!!!!!

Mumbai - 26th March 2009
Varun Kumar Lalitha has just scraped through the first interview & is now just one interview away from bagging the coveted MBA seat.
How did he do it?
A : He cheated
B : He's lucky
C : He's a genius
D : It is written
Question 1 :
Interviewer : Naaaaaame??
Me : Sir, Varun Kumar Lalitha
Interviewer : Varun Kumar LALITHA!!!????Why the LALITHA????
Me : (A question I've now faced in all interviews till date....Thnx dad for the name...I know the answer to atleast 1 question....) Sir...Lalitha is my grandmom's name.
Interviewer : Strange....your dad's name is Mannur Ramkumar Reddy & not one title matching with your name....
Ok...So varun....tell me sth about yourself.....
Me : Sir, I work in L&T at Visakhapatnam as an executive engineer (Management Trainee)
Interviewer : And what exactly does an executive engineer do???
Me : (Actually take print-outs & xeroxes whenever my boss or department needs it....Could actually open a xerox store after these years of work)
thnx to the gruelling mock interview sessions at Time Vizag, I could portray some "Useful work done".

Question 2 :
Interviewer : What is your fantasy in life & what would you ask fairy Godmother if she granted you one wish.
Me : thnx to the numerous fully faltoo skits at college & L&T Vizag, could come up with a fantasy of making a film.

Question 3 : After convincng them that I was faltoo enuf to get inspired by Raju Hirani, the stage was set for the final question. One question away Mr.Slumdog engineer.
Interviewer : Whom would you select from the other 5 (3 other guys & 2 gals)
Me : Chose a finance guy.
Gal 2 (My fairy Godmother???) : Sir...I am actually confused between the finance guy & Varun...but I think I will select Varun as I see a spark in his eyes...:D
(Thank you Angel....Sry I forgot your name but thnx for seeing an elusive spark & more importantly showing it to the interviewers....Still wondering what the spark was that never produced a fire!!!)

Results time : April 21st 2009, Visakhapatnam
Slumdog engineer gets to pursue an MBA.....fiiinaaalllyyyy...
B : He's lucky
It's time for Jai ho...Jai ho....not in the busy VT station though but amidst the lungi clad vizagites on the street......
Yes....Luck By Chance...I wouldnt be here if not for that luck.
About me....After my initial schooling in Gitanjali School,Hyderabad & 11th-12th at hyderabad too, I did my engineering from NIT Calicut followed by a tryst at L&T Vizag....Guess my tryst with sea coasts continues...Mumbai...Here I come...
All thru school, college & work, been bullshitting my way thru...Loved the JAM's, Mock press, ADZAP, Pot Pourri & all other such bullshitting opportunities....play cricket & tennis....Ardent cricket follower (As you would associate with any typical andhrite)..
Huhh....My mom will be proud of me....Coz I'vefinally got rid of my laziness to pen down sth...
Hope to have a great 2 yrs at SP will all you wonderful talented guys & gals
Cheers.
