For those of the countless millions of you readers who have not had the honour and privilege of knowing of the One, the greatest vet ever to have hopped on this earth or for that matter, on any other earth; he is the One. The One who made Neo (of Matrix infamy) the Three (yours truly being the Two, in designation as well as in size). The One who is the world's best Vet and the leading authority on animal psychiatry, psychosis, psychedelics and Gangnam style Psy. The One who cured Paul the Octopus of his visions and gave bats their vision.The One who then ventured into management and combined Pavlov with Arindam Chaudhuri. The One who put the Axis in the Bank. I am sure that by now, the intelligent reader (by the way, would such a species, if any, venture here??) would have deigned what I am talking about.
Now, the One is naturally on top of most lists like maximum time on 99 bucks (ahead of SR Tendulkar); maximum time speaking continuously (ahead of Mr MM Singh) etc. But there was one list on which he was not Numero Uno. Sacrilege though it may sound, he was not yet the most eligible available bachelor in India, the world, the Ursa Minor and the other side of Alpha Centuari. This had nothing to do with his bachelorhood (after all, who counts गन्धर्व विवाह). It had nothing to do with eligibility either. Or so I would hope. After all, a few arrests in drugs busts, a few nights in the lock ups are but a part to see the corrupt system from inside and thus clean it. For the uninitiated, the One is the next Prime Ministerial candidate of the Congress, the BJP, the SP, the BSP, the Mango People Party and all other parties as well. NaMo and RaGa are just fighting it out for the number two spot...
The only issue was availability. By some strange quirk of fate, the One was born as the younger One to a doting and caring brother who, till now, had decided to forego his worldly responsibilities and take care of the One. But with the thirties approaching, the One decided that enough is enough and created a wedding portal for his elder brother. Yes, an entire portal!! The One does not do things in half measures... As a result, soon there will be शेहनाई , बारात and hordes of mischievous saalis of his brother for the One.
And then, it will be the turn of someone beyond the normal to step up and accept the challenge- of being one on one with the One!!! But till then, the One is still one and happy with the status quo (care should be taken to avoid the mention of butterflies in front of the One at times of such discussions, though)... May the force be with the one, till the time it can.....
