LEGENDS OF IF (LOIF)
Dear Friends my name is Antar, today I am going to present to all the great members of this great forum One Of The Legendary Member Of IF.
A legend today may be someone of noted celebrity, with larger-than-life accomplishments, whose fame is well-known. Here the legend about whom we are going to discuss on not less than that. So far she contributed/did a lot for IF and has been here for long. She is an excellent human being, very helpful, too friendly, innocent, jolly & creative. She joined IF 23rd January, 2006 and so far her total number of posts are more than 12245. She is an IF-Rockerz and who always believes
Yup, she is no one else but our dearest member & friend Koeli (who also be known as Bruno).
Thanks a lot Koeli for all of your efforts, supports & contributions at IF. You are definitely one of the legends of IF.
OMG !!!!!! what is this ?????๐๐ฒ.๐ฒ... No wonder Antar posted it the moment I told Aku in her MOTW thread that I am leaving and will come back at night !!!!!๐๐...Antar..itna jhatka bhi mat do yaar .....This is sooo unexpected!!!!!!!!๐ฒ ...* please pardon me guys as I am going thru temporary, shock , numbness and delirium*O.kkk I have recovered now ๐....so should I start with my oscar Ishtyle speech????๐Antar ..I am overwhelmed and touched that u have bestowed me with this honor ๐..thanks to u and IF dev team for coming up with this innovative thought...I think the thought about old members talking about the journey is the stepping stone for those who have just joined in and who r intrigued by IF and IF Parivar ๐
Please tell us something about the IF journey from the beginning till now:Where do I start??....When I came to US Indian Idol 2 was going on in India .I was desperately looking for any site to get info on II as I didn't have Sony then ..sify.com was there but it was not current and a friend of mine told me about IF ...irony of the whole thing is that friend never came back to IF where as I got hooked on to it like fevicol๐....ohhh so many memories ๐ ....kahaan se shuru karu.....I mainly stayed in one fanclub in II 2 section for most of the time during 1st few months ...made all my friends there and slowly they all became part of my daily life ....My friend Sumesh used to come up with innovative ideas about making movie with our Idols as playback singers ..choosing Maldives as our shooting spot ...omg!!!๐๐..then those contests among the fan clubs and the awards there after ๐๐...after II 2 ..all the fan club members became one big happy family ...like u visit Karu fc and ask them what;s "cooking" ๐....playing antakshari, movie games .....virtual wedding of Sumesh with his Idol Antara ..and Prayas with Monali ..omg!!!! so hilarious !!!..Gowthy a karu fan has a restaurant ( real) in London and he used to post these delicious dishes during the wedding ...we all chose Ritu Beri Manish Malhotra clothes ๐ณ๐....Sumesh -antara wedding celebration went on for 7 days ..and Gowthy's threads everyday with the trousseu and all ,,Sangeet ceremony ..omg!!! when I remember those hilarious moments ..it warms me ๐..the best part was, we always came up with ideas that involved Idols and then our imagination used to fly high๐..and the mods couldn't say anything..infact megha and butter were darlings ..it is because of them we had soo much fun ,,,then those judges vs judges debate in II 3 ...U know me ,,,when poeple were in que to join javed , Alisha's team ..I wanted to join Anu "obnoxious" Malik's team ..Maya and Ronnie were in my team ...what fun..debate as Anu Malik ..jo chahe man mein kah do ๐......and we won the competetion๐๐ ...then I started to go to KBC forum being a staunch SRK fan .....had beem motw ..Idol of the week ...participated in caption contest and won in KBC2 forum๐......We had a monali fan Mans who started this coffee with Mans show ...the format was like Koffee with Karan....I was fairly new then ..and Mans called me in his 4th show along with 2 others ...omg!!! ...it was such an experience ....it was a 1 hr show ..so timing was chalked out from before due to diff timezone ( it was lunch time for me ๐) ....those impromptu qs ...bouncers after bouncers ..rapid fire round ..woww what an experience!!! ...and when ever I read those now ( when i feel nostalgic ) I agree with Mans that we could indeed give those bolly celebs a run for their money ๐๐..Mans qs were soo creative catered to specific person ....One thing I learnt thru IF ..we r a bunch of pretty creative , intelligent , fun-loving and witty people who have gathered around here ๐๐๐......
Your fav forum/section of IF:It was definitely Indian Idol section till mid 2007 ....now that place looks like ......well it seems dreams now .....At present of course SRGMP section ๐....Yeh section bina chain kahaan reyaar Bina chain kahaan resona nahi chandi nahi srgmp Milaarre masti kar le....๐
Best moment at IF:Well there were many memorable moments but what stood out most was me winning the best new comer award in IF๐ ....basically I am a private person ..I can't go and talk to people just for the heck of talking ..I was in AMFC inside II section and oblivious of what's going on....just posted there had fun with my friends there and log off....so it really overwhelmed me that I won that award in whole of IF๐๐๐ ....I never thought I was noticed as I was living like a cocoon๐....
Worst moment at IF:Actually I wouldn't call worst moment but I did get hurt during chhote ustaad ...sometimes my close friends got hurt ..and that did hurt me ...but I learnt one thing too...when u don't feel good to come to the forum ...just avoid it for sometime ...and don't try to judge people and quote ..... things do fall into place after a while and u find that people r not that bad after all๐๐๐....So far the most admirable member to you:When I think of a member who I admire and look up to ..the name come to my mind is Summer ..I hadn't come across a member who is respectable yet funloving and when the time comes he quietly steps up and takes charge ...pacifies members in his own inimitable way ......๐The members whom you will always miss:
Sumesh, Huzi, Bitu my 3 boy friends .....lol....they r such wonderful friends ...I won't forget the way Sumesh made me feel at home ....and my soul sisters and friends...Madhy, Lishu( Alishba), Amu(Amrita) , Aisha, Anki ...Aisha had a "shop" with "chappals" in case we need to use them on Sumesh and Huzi๐....the camraderie we had was unbelievable ..infact it warmed me when I saw few pms yesterday congratulating me on completing my 3 years in IF ....although i haven't talked to some for more than 3 months ๐ ..... I am still with u all ..so not thinking of missing anybody over here

Your ever best friend at IF (Only one please):This is not fair ...when u r talking about IF how can I talk about 1 ??
So far you met many male members at IF. If you ever ask to choose any one among them as your life partner who he will be:Well...I say I consider IF as my 2nd home ....still it is a virtual world ....Mans asked me this q in his show "Koeli if u have to advice any new female members about the guys in IF , who would u suggest as a guy to flirt with to date with and to marry with .....I'll say the same answer I said then ..I can suggest a guy to flirt and to date but none to marry ๐๐...O.kkk I am done .......๐๐
