A Night At A Wedding In ETAH

Uttar Pradesh is known for its historical monuments, different culture, politics, jugaad and its furious people. Here I am telling you one incident that recently happened with us in Etah.

It all started with the Arvind's (Talimpur) wedding day. We all were very excited for this wedding ceremony because Arvind was the first one in our group who was getting married.

We booked a taxi and started our journey from Delhi to Etah. Let me first tell you who we are - Manu (me -16k), Ashish (Ahuja), Charu (Cherry), Rishabh (Donald), Saurabh (Railway), Piyush (ISIS) & Ashwini (Vini). Before this journey, my father had warned me that do not mess with anyone in Etah. Just go, enjoy and be alert. But I did not take his advice seriously. 

The journey started, I picked up everyone from their respective locations. We had a lot of fun in the car. Our driver was also very funny and he made our journey more joyful. We reached Etah at 7 in the evening and then met the groom, Arvind. After all this, we got ready and then started making our arrangements to make the occasion more enjoyable. Yes, a friend's wedding without a bottle, how this can be possible? We arranged it and took our dose and joined the baraat. We all danced like hell. Anil Kapoor, Govinda, Mithun, Dharmendra, Nagin dance, we did all.

Later, we went inside the marriage home and suddenly Charu noticed that he had lost his phone. From this moment, the night turned into an adventurous night. When we all came to know about Charu's phone, we all ran out from the marriage home and started searching for it. Outside the marriage home, we found that 3 boys on a bike surrounded by some men and they were shouting "yehi hai jisne phone lia hai" (they are the one who took the phone). We quickly ran to those boys and suddenly one boy(A) in red sweater started running. We all chased him with our full pace. The boy(A) went inside another marriage home to hide himself and we followed him to that place. Coincidently, there was another matter going on in that wedding in which some people were beating 2 men(B) furiously. Instead of becoming onlookers, we continued our search for the boy(A). We were feeling like that we are solving a CID case 😛. After searching for some time, Piyush found the boy(A) in the bathroom. We shouted and beat the door several times, but the boy(A) didn't come out. After some time, by somehow we got succeeded in convincing him and he opened the door.

With the coming out of the boy(A), a new twist came in front of us. When we asked the boy about the phone, he said that he gave the phone to another boy(C). We were already high and after this statement, our booziness got doubled. We decided that come what may, we will bring the phone back. While we were talking to that boy(A), suddenly 20 men(D) came with iron rods and started abusing us. Initially, we thought that those men(D) were from that boy's(A) side and they came to defend him. Later we got to know that they came to take the revenge for their men(B) who got beaten inside that marriage home and they had a misunderstanding that we have beaten those men(B). Suddenly that abusing moment turned into a massive fight. On one side there were 20 men(D) with iron rods in their hand and on the other side there were 5 including me, Ashish, Saurabh, Charu & Rishabh with empty hands. They volunteered with slaps, punches & kicks and we responded back with the same. Then they started beating us with those iron rods. They tried to hit on our heads but they missed every time. Saurabh got hit on his hand and I got on my waist. The situation was getting worse. One old man came out from the marriage home to stop the fight and he also became the victim of that situation. Then by god's grace some people came out and stopped the fight. After all this, we took the boy and called the police and told about the theft situation. 

The police probed the boy(A) in red sweater and asked him about that boy(C) who had the phone. After all this, we went to that place and called that boy(C) and finally we got the phone back. We thanked those policemen and came back to our party. After coming back, we finished our dose and then broke the DJ floor with our rocking dance. 


From L to R- Charu, Saurabh, Piyush, Sushant, Driver, Rishabh, Ashish, Manu, Ashwini
So this was our whole night in Etah. We had a completely different experience and had a great fun. We had a ball in the wedding of our tech blogger friend, Arvind.
