Hello everyone, I know that it's been a long since i had
posted something. As I had no time to write anything, was pretty busy actually
searching for a job, still not found one though. So lets talk about this blog
of mine which I am writing today, is all about a boy who is actualy ideal for
his family but a naughty fellow for his freinds. You can relate it to every boy
in the society though. But before I directly go to him I am gonna have a
backstory to make this boy a hero of my upcoming series 'Ideally Naughty'. I
hope everyone likes this.
Any resemblance with
the names of anything in this story is mere co-incidence.
PART I
(HISTORY)
Sun is rising up
through the mountains, a beautiful view which obviously lets you forget every
problem of your life. Birds are singing, trees are swaying with winds, it’s a
silent morning on the roads of Gaurawadi, a village with population of 1000
people. The villagers have woken up to a familiar noise of rooster, getting
ready for their day ahead. This village has a built up enabling them to be ready
for anything, be it flood, or be it any attack by the enemies. All this built up
is not any man's idea but a Tiger's, their living God. Yes, you read it right, it’s
a tiger who rules this village and acts as their living god. These people
worship him from heart and not from fear.
There's a Bhavani temple
situated in the centre of the village with huts surrounding it. There's a fence
that is actually surrounding the village and acting as their protection. It’s huge
and very difficult for any man to cross over it. So the only possible entry in
this village is from the front door. This door is wide enough only for four
people to walk together in or out. Every person in this village has its own set
of work and business. Some of them are farmers, where some have their own
business setup, some of them are potmakers while some have their grocery shops,
etc. Every person in this village is self sufficient. The head of this village
Mr. Ramchandra Gaura is an amazing peronality. He stands tall about 6 feet 6
inches, having a phenomenous 46 inches chest with a bicep of 18 inches, I guess
you all came to know how amazing his looks are for 56 years old man. Even after
having such a huge personality, his behaviour is down to earth and is humble in
and out. This man had a strength of 10 elephants, a great warrior of his time,
was a child of then Mukhya of this village who had a great ruling sense. The
Mukhya was a devotee of Goddess Bhavani, he had more people to handle than now and
was always ready to face anyone. He too was a great person by heart, but his
brothers were jealous of his popularity and success. They betrayed him and
allowed enemies to get inside of his village somehow and it was a disastrous
fight. Ramchandra was the hero of that fight and had won the battle killing his
uncles and the enemies as well. Though he won that battle, the Mukhya was so
badly injured that he died. While dying Mukhya said to Ramchandra to take over
the responsibility of this village and also said a secret of the blessing he
had from the Bhavani Mata(mother). He said " If anytime this village will
face an impossible problem, there will always be a Tiger to save us from it. He
is none other than the Vahan(vehicle) of our Bhavani Mata."
The Gaura's never wanted to expand the kingdom, they always
wanted to stay in their own limits and let others live in peace. But every
other neighbour of Gaura's wanted to rule over them because of their wealth and
intelligent people. The main reason to capture Gaurawadi was the presence of
the Tiger. He was the one who would make your wish come true. People from
outside the village were allowed to come for his darshan. Doors of Gaura's were
always open to kind people. But as time passed, people from this village started
to move out. It was because Ramchandra was a disciplined man and he didn't want
any new changes in the village that were going according to the present time.
So people who wanted to expand their business and bring on new policy moved out
from this village. Ramchandra thought that these new policies will actualy
bring an end to the culture and also will start to create havoc in the village
as it was involving some bad business as well. He gathered people in the centre
of the village near their temple and had meeting with everyone over this topic,
some people wanted this change but most of them didn't, so Ramchandra took
decision accordingly and gave a big NO to this new policy of the businessmen.
So people started to move out from this village and this is how population
reduced.
Today there are 1000 people in this village but all are wise
enough. Ramchandra had 4 sons and 1 daughter, all sons were irresponsible
except for the 3rd one named Shantaram. He loved his father alot and wanted to
follow his father. Ramchandra's wife died while delivering the 5th child,
unfortunately a girl child. As villagers were not that literate they used to blame
the child for her death and everyone said that she was a curse, but Ramchandra
never thought so and always used to love her the way he loved his other
children. Shantaram was a very smart boy, smart in studies and good with sword
in a time where fighting skills weren't needed. So Ramchandra told Shantaram
and his other sons to leave swords and try to go for some other business to
earn their living. Other sons of Ramchandra were not that good at studies so
they left school in early age and also didn't bother about anything as their
father was the Mukhya of the village. But Shantaram worked hard enough and
started earning.
Some years passed and
it was Ramchandra's time to go, he could not decide as to who will be the next
leader of the village. And this was a very big problem as this village needed a
leader. A leader who could understand their problem and also be a part of their
happy life, who would bring prosperity to the name of Gaura's. As Ramchandra
was a devotee of Bhavani Mata, she gave him a locket with the nail of her
tiger. Yes, it was the Waghnakh(Nail of Tiger) to Ramchandra and told him to
let this locket decide your village's new leader.
He had another
meeting with the villagers about this and told that the Goddess gave him this
locket and whomsoever this locket suits will be announced the new head, to
which everyone agreed and started this process from the elder son. Everyone had
a watch over his actions and no one wanted him to be the Mukhya, not even the
Goddess because right from the next day the elder son got fever so high that he
couldn't manage to stand on his own legs, as soon as he gave up the locket he
was totally fine thus proving that he was not the one to lead. Next was the
turn of the 2nd child but even he met the similar fate, so he too gave up. This
time it was Shantaram's chance to wear this locket. Every single man in the
village wanted Shantaram to be their leader as he reflected his father's
persona. Shantaram was also carrying the locket properly and everything went
properly. Surprisingly, new people came to stay in the village, there was a big
positive change in the village. Also Shantaram was involve d in this change,
bringing in new business to the village that increased people's income. Not a
single person was complaining about the locket. A month had already passed and
it was a very beautiful month for the Gaura's. Everyone was happy and it was
finally decided that Shantaram would be the one to lead this village.
Everyone started to
applaud and started to dance on this decision by Mukhya. But all the brothers
were jealous of Shantaram. His sister was very happy because he got what he
deserved. There was a feast kept on the occassion of selecting the new Mukhya.
Everyone was enjoying, having food, beer and dancing on the rhythm. At the end
the new Mukhya Shantaram went to Bhavani Mata's Temple and swore to protect people,
lead the village and help to reach a new level. Soon Shantaram helped his
brothers to get married and also helped them to setup their new house with their
wives and children. Even Shantaram got married to a girl 10 years younger than
him. She was an average looking girl with a heart of gold.
