Firstly let me introduce myself. Those who already the know thw crap can skip this.
My name is Jiji.
I am married and a mother to a 2yr old boy.
April 1st 2011 when it all started. I was working as a Reservations Head in Dept. Of Tourism Kerala. I was preparing for my promotion when I got the best news of my life.
Since it was 1st of April, no one believed me in the first place. I had got my pregnancy test results and it was positive. My colleagues were like, dont try to fool us lol.
So, I convinced them with proof and distributed pastriea to everyone.
1 week later my cramps started and I could not concentrate on my work other than my throwing up. I applied for maternity leave and got it sanctioned later that week.
I was a movie freak and horror is my favorite genre. Since I was expecting my hubby strictly ordered me to not watch gruesome movies. I was angry obviously...then started going through the channels one by one.
I stopped on a channel I never watched in my life. It was Star Plus... The Promo of Ipkknd was playing. When I saw Khushi in that yellow salwar... I was like wow and then Arnav appeared with his grumpy face. And I double wowed.
"Nafrat paas aane de... Mohabbat door jaane de"
And I knew it will take everything in me to stop myself from following the show. I had never watched any single soap and as far as I heard from my senior didi's from the hostel...they were all time consuming. They uses to debate on some soap called "Kasam Se" or something like that. But now I know why lol.
When the show started I was determined to follow it from the first ever episode and I did sneaking from my hubby who was busy in his study that time. Thank god!
But from next night I couldnt because he was sitting right next to me watching Cricket. And there was no way I could admit to him that I was following the show...because I knew that he will make fun of me once he finds out.
I caught up with the repeats...and it continued for the next week. I managed to not spill anything to him to embarras myself.
But everything backfired on me when he caught me watching the 3pm repeat.
He laughed and teased me to death. And I was like get out of my life you jerk. Seriously my pregnancy hormones were working quickly. He was stunned I blackmailed him to get my hands on the remote at 8pm.
Thus my journey with Ipk started... and I met all the awesome people who shared my craziness equally. It was like "Jaise banjaare ko mila ghar"
IF buddies, Twitter buddies and Fb buddies. Everyone became a part of my life since then.
For the record... I have missed only 3 episodes of Ipk because I was in the hospital for my delivery.
I got admitted on 26th Nov and Gave birth to my son on 28th Nov 2011, which was a Monday. I was back home on Thursday and resumed my journey.
P.S. My next post will be a link to the special rabbave version of my son.
I know you all are missing Ipk...just like I do.
But we are together in this..
10000 pages or not. Ipk forum is the best.
Love you all.
p.s. Sorry for the typos...drafted it from my phone.
