AXE Man

-



(I couldn't get the Indian version!)
Not expecting much, I just dialled the number for fun, they had all add flashing 09987333333, and boy was I in for some raunchy surprise or what?



My call was answered by this husky voice calling herself 'Tanya' and what followed was a seducing act
Imagine a hot Blondie, in sexy voice talking to you (Total movie effect)

"Hi AXE Man, this is Tanya. You can win a ipod to a dell computer AXE.... Man..... Do you want win one? Press 1"

I immediately pressed 1( I may just win for him and surprise him).
"Axe Man, you like me don't you? Let me wake up for next 5 days and the at the end of 5th day you can win " I followed the instructions. and the alarm was set for 8am every day for next 5 days".

My 5 mornings were followed by a call exactly at 8


"Wake up axe man, its me Tanya. Come on .... axe man.wake up" "Hi did you miss me? Axe man, get up now..." "Hey Axe man, did you have a dream about me..."

Those were fun mornings! I am not sure what exactly is their marketing strategy and how exactly do they plan to gain, but men are sure in for a treat :). Don't believe me, try it yourself!

I didn't win anything, no surprise there, but I am glad I called that number ;) LOL.

The Fight

-
"You are sleeping here tonight!" She threw the pillow and the blanket on the sofa and stormed out of the room. Same day, few hours earlier. Sameer was to leave for the US for a month long project the next day. He wanted her to travel with him, but given that she was working too, it didn't work out.This was going to be her first long separation from him ,since marriage. A Christan banglorean, married to delhi guy, a year ago, Shalini met Sameer in her old office. Cupid stuck, parents got involved , after quite some bit of paatoying the parents ,they tied the knot. Ever since she had learnt about the US trip,there was a eruption of mixed feelings, sad, happy, irritated.She would miss him dearly,having him around had become a habit,but then again,this was very a good opportunity,that would boost his career growth. Off late the two of them had been really busy with work, getting hardly to no time with each other. With just one day left, she wanted him all for herself.Just th...

Leading interior designer Saakashi, shares her lover story with us today. "It was just meant to happen! I couldn't have asked for a better life partner" As narrated to us, this one is from her to all our viewers! Read on. "Vikas, woh laadka smart laag raha hai" That was me, looking at this guy is blue jeans and grey round neck T. Hadn't seen him arnd earlier. We had a pact, I spot the pretty ones and he helps with the handsome ones LOL! The same evening, "Guys, lets go and play TT" (we had just finished our assignment) most of my team members played well,I wanted to learn too! There he was again! Playing TT with my team mate Rakhi. He stole a glance at me(girls always know it!) We had a common link now. Next day, there he was, again (Coincidence hmm?) I had Jeffery Archer (he he he). The rest of them played with him, while I sat on the bench pretending to be serious reader. Day 3: Same time, we were finally introduced, " Hi, I am Swayam...

Good Friends?

Its not difficult to spot a good friend syndrome.It started with we are just 'good friends', a customary 'hi' and then started the Long talks way past midnight planning of the whole day keeping his calender appointments on mind, Shopping for his best friends wedding, Picking up his laundry while he was at office Bunking because he was down with fever. Going that extra mile to say 'sorry' when actually he is at fault. Jealous when you see him with some pretty girl. She knew she had developed feelings that didn't categorize him as just a 'good friend',but she never accepted it, neither to herself nor to him. In denial, she only let her self fall deeper into this pit.She couldn't tell if he loved her, but he depended on her. She was his lifeline, she was there whenever he wanted, at 5 in the morning or at midnight. She was there for him always. Growing up around each other now had become a habit. Friends and family noticed, but she always shut them ...
