00:00In IIT, we had a batch of 1000 people and there were 70 girls.
00:06As soon as I went to college, I had a crush on a senior and I proposed to her.
00:12And the seniors made fun of me a lot.
00:14I was fully inspired by Shahrukh stories, Shahrukh sir's films.
00:18I was inspired by those stories. I used to do proper romantic things.
00:21I saw that and the love at first sight happened.
00:25Because it is written in destiny.
00:27Abhishek Tripathi, Panchayat Sachip, Gram Plus Post, Phulera.
00:30How was the dating culture in IIT?
00:36Because there are less girls in IIT, right?
00:38In IIT, this is a joke.
00:40Yes, it was a very bad scene.
00:41In IIT, we had a batch of 1000 people and there were 70 girls.
00:4870 girls out of 1000 boys.
00:52Silence says.
00:54Was your girlfriend in IIT?
00:58No, I tried a lot, but no one came.
01:01So, you were also in the same line in 1000.
01:05Which category were you in?
01:07There are three types of non-dating boys out of 1000.
01:11One on whom 70 girls are dying for him.
01:14Yes, I was fully inspired by Shahrukh stories, Shahrukh sir's films.
01:19I was inspired by those stories.
01:21I used to do proper romantic things.
01:24I used to try to impress.
01:26But no, it didn't work.
01:27It used to be of some people, who were 70 people.
01:31Lucky 70.
01:33So, it used to be of those people.
01:34The rest of the people, I think,
01:36the rest of the people, I think,
01:37used to wait for the fest.
01:38When will the cultural fest come?
01:41And when will we get the chance that foreign girls will come?
01:44So, they used to be very aggressive in the fest.
01:46To impress by doing anything.
01:47So, they are participating in all the competitions.
01:49And it's okay if you get some appreciation from anywhere.
01:52Later, they will connect on Orkut or Facebook.
01:55So, there were a lot of such things.
01:57So, did you date anyone during your college days?
01:59No, you didn't date anyone.
02:00Did you talk about it in the fest or not?
02:02I tried it in the fest.
02:03And it's a very interesting story.
02:07Very romantic.
02:08Tell us an interesting romantic story.
02:10The fest was over.
02:11It was a 4-day fest.
02:13It was over in 4 days.
02:14Everyone was sitting there.
02:15Tired, defeated, nothing happened.
02:16There was a group of 10 people.
02:17No one was affected.
02:18Everyone was sitting there.
02:19Suddenly, a girl came.
02:22And she...
02:23I was sitting in the corner.
02:25She crossed me.
02:26She asked me for a way.
02:28So, I don't know.
02:29I saw her.
02:30And I fell in love at first sight.
02:32Okay.
02:33Literally, that...
02:34Shah Rukh Khan is visible.
02:35Yes.
02:36Flowers, violins.
02:37Violins were playing in the background.
02:38Everything was playing.
02:39And I said,
02:40Yes.
02:41Come.
02:42I will show you.
02:43She said,
02:44No.
02:45Just tell me the way.
02:46I will reach there.
02:50So, I said...
02:51Then I said,
02:52No.
02:53I was going that side.
02:54So, if you don't mind.
02:55So, everyone said,
02:56Okay.
02:58So, finally,
02:59I talked to her a little.
03:01I asked her name.
03:02She asked me my name.
03:03And...
03:04I mean,
03:05we talked a little on the way.
03:06And we reached her hostel.
03:07I told her that...
03:08She was from outside.
03:09She was staying there.
03:10She was staying in the guest house.
03:11So, I said,
03:12This is the guest house.
03:13All the friends were coming from the front.
03:15When they saw,
03:16they were like,
03:17Oh!
03:20Red couple.
03:22They thought that
03:23the boy's life will be sorted here.
03:24Then she came and asked,
03:25Okay.
03:26Phone number?
03:27I said,
03:28I didn't take the phone number.
03:29And I sat down
03:30and bowed my head.
03:31I said,
03:32This is such a big problem
03:33that I didn't take the phone number.
03:34Suddenly,
03:35she crossed again.
03:36She came out
03:37and said,
03:38Hi.
03:39She said,
03:40Hi.
03:41And she asked,
03:42Why are you sitting here?
03:43I said,
03:44Just like that.
03:45So, she said,
03:46Okay.
03:47Let's go for a walk.
03:48There was an incident with me
03:49that as soon as I went to college,
03:50a senior speaker came
03:53and proposed to her.
03:54And the seniors
03:55made fun of me a lot.
03:56Okay.
03:57Then,
03:58as soon as the phone number
03:59was dialed
04:003-4 times,
04:01I asked,
04:02Yes,
04:03I mean,
04:04I was getting that moment
04:05that I will take the phone number.
04:06Before that,
04:07I just checked
04:08that
04:09I asked,
04:10Which year are you?
04:11She said,
04:12I am in the final year.
04:13And I was in the first year.
04:14I thought,
04:15No.
04:16Not senior.
04:17Not again.
04:18I don't want to get trapped
04:19in the same trap again.
04:20And as soon as I heard
04:21the final year,
04:22I turned from there
04:23and came home
04:24saying bye.
04:25And I didn't take the phone number.
