That’s my Bhai !
Name : Hardik Kotak
Age: 31
Height : 6’1
Weight: 110 kg.
Color : dark whitish!
Interests: music, traveling , movies and playing with kids!
But, kids love playing with him ? not so much!
As you can gauge form this stat's that he pretty much looks
like The Hulk , and so he dose!
If his height and weight were not enough to intimidate any
one, he also wore a stubble 365 days!
365 days ? ya he never clean shaved , only trimmed , eeewwwww , I know!
But this hulk kind of personality created havoc among kids
in our society , every time he would see kids playing ,he would walk up to
share pleasantries and in response they
would all scatter screaming murder!
This was the story with all the kids , he was the official GABBAR
of the Kotak family . Mothers used his name liberally to keep their kids in
line! POOR BHAI! No matter what he tried doing , he could never get the kids to
like him.
Soon he got married and after 4 years was blessed with a lovely
little boy! Bhabi was at her moms for post natal care and was only back with my
nephew after five months! I remember Bhia was counting day’s to be with his
son!
The D day came and we welcomed my nephew home . But what
followed was not so pleasant. Ever time bhai went near him , he would cry
helplessly ! This was rather unusual for a kid who was quite social otherwise. POOR
BHAI! Mom suggested that he stay away from his son and let him get used to the
new environment and maybe he would slowly well up to him too !
The following day was bhai’s scrutiny with the
I.T. guys , so he thought it would be a
good idea to shave to look more like a business tycoon and less like a tax
evading goon! The day went fine and was cleared of all charges . As he got home
and was watching over his son ( at a distance mind you) he realized that his
son was making eye contact and it didn’t result in screaming fits but in a pleasant smile! He mustered some courage and
picked up his son from the cot! And what followed could only be described as
magic ! My nephew couldn’t stop giggling while my brother held him. It was
almost as if my brother was his best friend from the afterlife! He was is haven! That’s when it hit him that his
stubble that he thought made him look all macho , actually made him look like a
beast to the children!
My Bhai had to CRAVE
to play with his own son until he SHAVED !
That stubble never came back . He got popular with the kids
and soon stared coaching the boys cricket team of Sulochana co-operative housing
society! He was a happy man !
(p.s. I personally miss the stubble , it came in handy every
time my palm itched , it was perfect scratching surface i say :-P )
