Have you ever wondered how many of our friends on MS share their names/pseudonyms with famous personalities. Or interesting anecdotes. Or leitmotifs for that matter. How by merely looking at someone/something or listening to a dialogue, we are immediately reminded of one of our fellow MSians.
Dont believe me ? Take a look at the photo. Whenever I see this guy on TV, I'm reminded of our friend Karan (@eager2xpress) who's profile photo closely resembles this one. Whats more this guy’s name is Karan too ! Karan Kundra, to be precise. Of Kitni Mohabbat Hai fame :-P
Get what I mean ? If you do, read on. This might just be the Quiz for you. Below I have compiled a few "Who am I ?" statements, answers to which carry clues to the identity of some of our beloved fellow MSians. Your job is to simply identify the MSian referred to in each statement. To be fair, I have tried to include both new and old (active at any time during the last three years) MSians to create a level playing field.
So if you are ready, here goes :-
(1) I used to be a philosopher 2500 years ago in China.
(2) Meri shirt bhi white, meri pant bhi white, meri jooti bhi white hai (My shirt is white, my pants are white, my shoes are white too).
(3) I am Gautam Buddha. I am Akshaye Khanna's screen name too.
(4) The great TS Eliot has written a book on me.
(5) Dilwara Temple from Jaipur
(6) I am one of the best Indian dancers of all times but I dont dance anymore !
(7) Mujhe sirf do cheezen acchi lagti hain - Mona aur Mona ke saath Sona :-P
(8) I have made four seasons and I am endorsed by Karan Kapoor.
(9) Jo sabka khayal rakhta hai (one who looks after everyone).
(10) I am an aircraft carrier. I am a cricketer too.
(11) Gautam Buddha's perfect peace of mind.
(12) I am Maharishi Mahesh Yogi's assistant. I'm also a famous public speaker & author.
You can comment here or if you want to prevent others from getting hints from your answers or copying them, you can send via M2M too. Deadline for M2M entries is 12 o'clock midnight on Sunday.
Results: Results & Winners will be announced on 29th or after.
Prizes: worth 2000 MS points to be won
Bumper Prize - worth 1000 points if you can come up with the most number of leitmotifs (takiyakalaam) or other characteristics that typify the writing style/persona of the MSians quizzed about.
Happy Contesting!
(PS - Dont bother if I'm away and therefore unable to respond to your comments immediately. As they say, the show must go on !)
