If you tell a lie 100 times..even that appears to be a truth"..how true! Well it all started when I was in college. One fine evening when our Annual Sports meet Josh was going on, me and my friends were watching a Volley Ball Final match..the atmosphere was tense for players as they had to bear the non-stop "hooting" by the spectators(not me!). All of a sudden something happened that grabbed the interest of all the people standing near the court. One of my friends shouted at the top of his voice.."KAAAAAFIIIII" and immediately to his response, as if through telepathy a person on diagonally opposite end shouted "ZYAAAADAAAA"...and before we knew it, the entire crowd was chanting this "KAAAFIII ZYAAADAAA" like a slogan stated never before. Inquisitive as i am...I asked many of my friends after the match as to what this kaafi zyaada meant and i got a single answer from all..."kafi zyada means kaafi zyada...na kuch kam na aadha!".
Soon people did not even care about what this meant , what context it was created for or who created it. Kafi Zyada became the cult word...whenever you were happy you exclaimed kaafi zyada!..whenever you passed a sarcasm on anyone's common sense you said kaai zyada..whenever you met some one across the road you greeted them with kaafi zyaada...the list was endless. Along came several other bakar words like bhokaal...bum bhokaal...bhaiyaaaa...chaukas chauraha...bawaliyaa...latest addition to this being CHAKORI :) But no matter how many words were devised...Kafii zyada has consistently topped the charts!
Such was the power of these cult words that even after 2 years since we have passed out of our college and are more and more swamped with work, whenever we meet old friends or even mere acquaintances from our college days, we just say kaafii and the gap just vanishes in thin air. Probably even 10 official get together or alumni reunion will not be able to charge us up more than talking to friends in our own kaafii terminology! I think our entire batch will owe this to the super talented junta who created such novel funky words which got picked up as a fun-thing but turned out to be one of the strongest media to keep people bonded.
Well as I said earlier, CHAKORI is the latest addition to this list of bizarre words and it is already becoming very popular in our tukbandis on orkut and facebook…lets see if CHAKORI becomes the new kaafi zyaadaa ;)
”Haan to fir junta…chahe chora ho ya chori..zor se bolo CHAKORI CHAKORI!!”
Special Thanks to : Prasoon, AD, moti, shobhit, pandit,PD...chodo yaar in short all moti ke laal of batch’07!!

I think there is only one person who requires a "THANKS" in this case..........and that's none other that Mr. Mohit "kaai jyaada" Goel.
i differ pd .... moti has had his share of glory by being crowned Kaafi zyaadaa bhaiyaa ;) ... i think if anyone deserves credit ... & supriya missed the name ... is the person who uttered the word kaafii for the first time on the volley court.... Abhishek
yups its almost true...but this wasn't the real beginning..it all started with me,abhishek and randy...with sarcastic "KAAFI n Kaaffi Jyaada" on orkut followed by us in real n later by all as anthem ... abhishek is obviously a big stake holder in "Kaafi Jyaada" n not mentioned here "Aao Baithein".
Was abhishek the one involved in "Aao Baithein" ?
Ohh....I thought it was CK and Mahajan......Kaafi
I remember Abhishek uttering that word in the volley court.....but i certainly believe Moti made it a "cult".
But Chakori credit certainly goes to Moti Bhaiyaa
thangu dada :)
abhishek was also involved...but "Aao Baithein" was mainly Mahajan's creation (ever-ready for aao-baithein) promoted by his wingies(abhishek,suhas and me)n CK.
anyone remembers "ab to hum bhi baithne ko taiyar hain " :P
gurr AD tum bahut sadoo ho :X
