Clash of the Titans

It was a battle, from the start. Two giants in contention for the prize, only one could win. Most of the girls flocked to Sham's team. Spying began in right earnest. Some overtly, some covertly. The desire to have fun reigned supreme.

All of us turned professional actors overnight. The first scene taken from director Binu's cam did not need any retakes. Deva, as a pickpocket was so convincing, he will never need to worry if TCS goes bankrupt.

Jo declared, 'I want a glamorous role!'. And glamour was what she got. A romantic dinner at Civet, which ended with Prasad (Kanvinde) proposing to her. Every girl's dream, except, this one was just for the camera. The romance continued, with Nithya and Sushant Paul Jr., growing old together.

Srini was unrecognisable as an astrologer. Another person who needn't look too far for an alternative career. Parag was a natural. Giving impromptu one liners in the scene, with us onlookers trying hard not to laugh, and Srini taking them in his stride and not getting flustered with the change in dialogues!

Dodo, as the Call centre rep was extremely professional. So much so that she attended Prasad Rao's call with a "Hi, This is American Express, Cathy speaking. How may I help you?!" leaving him very confused indeed. He has every reason to be, what with people being so good at their roles on camera, they might just take it up professionally!

There were too many hilarious moments, to list them all out, one that stands out is Dodo answering Parag's call with a "Hi, This is American Express. How may I help you?!"
and him saying "Hi Cathy, This is Parag here."
Realisation strikes! "Arre, usne Cathy nahin bola yaar!"
Retake!
Tring Tring. No answer from Dodo. Parag turns around, "6661 right?". (Vijay's extension!)
Retake!

Srini had a double role, as the father of two spoilt kids, Sumen and the great Rush :) Animol played his wife, and Srini could not stop flirting with poor Ani! Called her 'Neighbour's envy!' when Binu was supposed to play the dad.

We rounded it off with a song written especially for the occasion, to the tune of 'If you are happy and you know it, clap your hands'.

All of us were clapping our hands, and singing along, and this is our song:

"We are SSP and we give you the best" Clap clap clap
"We are SSP and we give you the best" Clap clap clap
So just pick up the phone and give us a call,
And we'll service you at our very best! Clap clap clap

"We are SSP and we give you the best" Clap clap clap
"We are SSP and we give you the best" Clap clap clap
So spend without fear, coz your card's always near,
And we'll service you at our very best! Clap clap clap
