Project Closing Report
Executive Summary
Project Blitzkrieg was a project to showcase the best traditions of the Indian culture all combined into one sack by a motley of individuals from different cultures which when put together into a marriage scene, resulted into an intoxicating ceremony that showcased the best of humor, zest, pomp, couture, cuisine, color and festivities. Paraphrased simply, it resulted into marriage of Ritajaani (RitzBitz) with her longtime beau Amitabh Bachchan. The KPIs and goals below will indicate that this project was a complete success.. But beyond all numerical successes this project also achieved a major milestone in bringing together the very best talents of the 2 forums of India-Forums, SRGMP and DM in a friendly, non-invasive, and ebullient setup.

Commentary
On behalf of the Munna Mannu Museebat Morcha (MMMM), Chamelikayaar would like to take this opportunity to recognize the contributions of the participants, each one of who added a unique flavor and color to this festive occasion.
Drumrolllllll Pleaaaaaaseeee…
MunnaBhai M.B.B.S (Maha Bharat ke Bhim Sen): My first and foremost thanks goes to Munnabhai, my biz partner through this entire event and was instrumental along with Anita in planning the whole event. There is a saying…what is not planned will never be executed. Munnabhai stuck it out with me through thick and thin of the entire planning stage which lasted longer than most of you would like to think. The great doyen (Amitabh Bachchan) could not have come here if not for the persuasive power of MBBS😉. No wonder I call this ball of fire, Maha Bharat Ke Bhim Sen. Outstanding job Munnabhai. 😆 I am privileged to have a partner like you.
Haute Couture expert ….anita….ani11: What can I say about you Anita? Every time I had my foot in my mouth and seemed like the boat was rocking, you were one of the people that I went to crying S.O.S and you never said no. You stuck to every task that you were assigned without mincing a word (I can live with you calling me nirdayee😆). Project Management and kindheartedness do not go together. Your Haute Couture, jewelleries, became rage. And you ensured that the wedding ended on a high note by selflessly taking on additional tasks when others could not stick to their tasks, including but not limited to Baraat, Sindoor, Jaimaal, Vidai etc. Bravo Anita…You are the paragon of accountability. It was very comforting to have you by my side. 👏
Tisha - Tania Ganguly: My latest friend on the cyberworld turned out to be a long lost buddy who used to eat phuchka together from the same khujli-seeking-phuchka-vendor in front of Victoria Memorial. 😆 I am absolutely ecstatic to reunite with you again, Tisha my friend. You were one of the tireless contributors to this event. Your sense of humor and wit is very sophisticated and intoxicating as against my rustic and sometime garrulous style. I am absolutely bowled over. You were again one of those who turned out to be a paragon of dependability.👏👏👏 This project could not have been pulled off without you. You did achieve a monumental success in making me blush with that ode of yours.😳😳 I look forward to interacting with you more often in future projects. The drinks you served are still hot in my throat. Your bachelorette party will stay vivid in my memories for long time to come. What an organization skill you have.👏👏👏
The very cute fishy…Mermaid_QT: Thanks to this project, I met a new friend. I have known Subhagya for some time now but I had never met this very bubbly, vivacious, jovial, witty and an extremely responsible Sharkbait. Sharkbait, your contributions to this project was huge. You pulled off the very important Haldi Rasm almost single handedly and went beyond the calls of the duty to ensure that this project met all expectations. Once again, you turned out to be one of those individuals who I went to regularly shouting S.O.S and you obliged each time. 👏 What a friend, I found? Will always cherish the memories of those laughter filled exchanges that we had.😃😃😃
Laughing-gas-struck…..Guardian Angel….Minali: My friendly laughter channel. Despite the huge responsibility that she is carrying on her shoulders (MOTW), she stuck to her promises and found time to perform all her tasks and the most important one being….actual Shaadi. Trust me, your detailed pooja did not go unnoticed. You are such a dear friend Minali. Thanks for taking time off your responsibility to make this project so lively.👏
Matarani Dia: Like Minali, you found time to make contributions to this project despite your commitments on the MOTW. For a change, your lavish spread was actually appreciated and enjoyed by all baraatis. Chickens turned out to be actually gracefully butchered rather than blasted by TNT. 😆 For the first time, doctor was not required post prandial.😆 You were only a PM away when I required help and you obliged every time. My sparring parter, my best cyber friend, I have run out of adjective describing my perspective of yours.😳😳 All I can say at this time is, I am privileged to have such a selfless friend like you on this forum.😃 I know you are bored with same role, but I will be a fool to entrust my gastronomy to somebody else's culinary skills. I love my potla. Thank you for stcking with us.😃
The very starry eyed – Simstar – Simtara: Another friend that I made on this thread. Your babelicious enthusiasm kept this thread rocking all the time. There was never a dull moment with you around. Your constant insinuations of "darling" had me in splits all the time and I must say that you played it to the hilt.😆 You handled the sangeet ceremony almost single-handed and never faded even if there was nobody around to keep up your pace. I wish I had more time on this project to duet with you some more with my messed-up lyrics.😳 I will definitely make up for my losses some other time. Simstar….You are a rockstar. Ever thought of trying in American Idol?😉😉 And I will not forget to mention that you were another star performed who answered my many S.O.S absolutely unflinching. Dependability Under Pressure: 10/10.👏
Chhotu…..Brighter than thou….Sunny: Another selfless friend of mine who answered each one of my S.O.S and went beyond the calls of his duties to make this project successful. He sounded a little lost at times but with little (very little) guidance, he struck gold each time I asked him to complete a task. Mere Sunno, You are one gem of a person, my friend. Your genius knows no limits.👏 You filled in for people who could not make it the party for unavoidable reasons. My sincere thanks for that.👏 I wish you could participate more in this ceremonyfrom an enjoyment perspective. Hope you learnt enough from this ceremony to be able to enjoy such threads in future. Great job Sunno.👏
Chhoti……Lighter than thou…..Snowflakes: She presents a visage of a very bubblicious, cutie pie in my mind who is willing to go out of her way to make others happy. What a bundle of energy in such a small frame!! Flakenol, you achieved perfection in every task that was assigned to you. Well beyond my imagination.👏 You could have done a little more of "maatha khana" but I am glad to have my maatha intact for future projects so no complaints from me.😆 You assisted Anita very well in Haute Couture department and arranged florals. Thank you Flakenol, my littlest friend.👏
Apne Piya ke pyaar mein bechain Piyabawri: A last minute entry, this bechain aatma was the mainstay of several events and turned out to be another one who I went to crying S.O.S. Glad to make a friend like you Piya.👏 Your contributions in the Mehandi Ceremony, Shaadi, floral arrangements etc was monumental. I also got to know the fun-loving side of you like many others. I am thrilled to make another friend through this project. Thank you for answering my S.O.Ss selflessly.👏
Tanya the TRUBL: This Trublsome friend of mine is a very vivacious and selfless character. Even though she did not enjoy the festivities of the occasion as much as she would have loved to, because of her preoccupations, she did not flinch from completing her tasks and responsibility on time and money. Even though I wish you could have spent more time around these festivities Trubl, I thank you for making appearances as your time permitted. 👏
Evilgenius Saaniya: My Evil friend evokes a very hilarious song in my memory each time I see her name…."Har nazar chahe mujhe main Saaniya badnaam".😆 But in eality, you are an absolutely dependable person. Saaniya, even though your personal time did not permit to enjoy the this svent in it's entirety, you did your best to have the task of decoration completed along with Sunno and Flakenol. Muchas Gracias.👏
He-who-busts-all-dhang-ki-chat Rahul the Chatbuster: Chatty my friend. Your style of humor is infectious. Although you made occasional appearances on this project, each time you appeared, you seemed to attract "bees" around you.😆 I have your 10% commission check ready but you first need to send me the entire expense ledger. Being a PM, the accounting part worries me the most. Take your time, I want the report to be SOX and audit compliant so don't do it in a hurry. Our izzat is on line.😆
Tansen….Amit…Sur Sangam: Tussi da jawaab nahi Taansen bhai. You kept the party in splits when ever you made your appearance.😆 You have great sense of humor. You kept the Geet-Sangeet thread buzzing. Your innuendoes over the project sponsor were outlandishly hilarious.😆 Keep up that sense of humor Taansen bhai. Glad to have a Sur-may friend like you. The effect of your glucerine has still not completely vanished. Ye glycerine tha ya tear gas ka condensed mixture tha?👏
Premnath ji…..Surpremi…Sunil Bhai: Padma Khanna nahi dikhi to kya hua….Rekha koi kum thodi na hai….Premnath bhai….You single handedly represented the "genetlemen" in the bachelor party and kept the girls wowed with your side-splitting comics.😆 You were a treat to read whenever you participated in the ceremony. Thank you for performing Kanyadaan and participating in the post-event celebrations. Look forward to working with a great friend like you in more future projects.👏
Jailor the great – Bhaskar: Jailor bhai sahab….Thank you for bolstering my confidence in success of this event with that menacing thread of yours (Malai maar ke Lassi peene wala) which kept all the Trouble-seekers at bay.😆 I am a little surprised at how smoothly the entire event went despite trouble-seekers lurking by. Thanks for keeping guard. Pun apart, thank you for sticking the thread and allowing such a fun filled party.👏
Anu the Geek (ans24us1): My genius friend made few appearances but against turned out to be another selfless worker. Thanks for making it to the party despite a very busy personal schedule Anu.👏
Confused Videshi….AZNDESI…Ron: Abey Tapori….Teri to….😆 Pun intended Ron bhai…..Agreeing to being part of the ceremony meant a lot to me even though you knew that you could not participate in it because of your busy schedule. Personal Life takes first priority my friend and I know you will stick it out for me when needed. That itself is a very comforting thought. Sameer ki Jai ho. Baaki sabka mangalmaye ho…😃😃😃
My Borther from another mother....Adi: Although you missed the entire event Adi, I thank you for showing up when you could. I know you were under the weather through most of the event. Hopefully we will do something exciting in future projects.😃😃😃
Anu of Anu_Vinit fame: Awww….I seriously missed this friend of mine. And knowing her personality, I have to believe that it has to be something very compelling in her real life for her to miss the festivities of this magnitude. Worry not Anu. Another time, another event…is not too far in the horizon.😃😃😃
Jaya: Another friend of mine who was seriously missed through the wedding. There will be more occiasions like this Jaya, so never mind. We will enjoy your energy in some other festivities. I know your personal worklife has been very engaging in past week or so.😃😃😃
Vinnie : Thank you for making your appearance. 😊
Cryptic-than-thou….Taran – Egghatcher: My friend. Your absence was heartfelt. Hope you are doing well wherever you are. Hope to catch you very soon someplace, sometime. Keep smiling until then.👏
And last but not the least…the very sponsor of this event:
Ritajaani – Ritzbitz: This friend of mine allowed us to have all the fun and laughter without wincing once.👏 She reciprocated every innuendoes made on the thread with sharp ripostes of her own.😆 Her style of humor and zest of life is truly prococative (heady). Rita, may you enjoy the bliss of this marriage forever. Thank you for being such a great sport, host and sponsor. On behalf of MMMM, I have to say that it was an absolute privilege of mine to be a part of this project. "Yaari Hai Imaan Mera Yaar Meri Zindagi". 😃
😃YOU ROCK BABY!!😃
Lastly One last bit of Stat: I had cleared my inbox before start of this project and now my inbox is 83% full with fun filled exchanges with you all.😆
and now "sluuuurrrrrp"....down goes my last sip of martini and I fade away.....
