The (Non April Fool) Bakra!!

The stage was set and the actors were ready…. heres the script…

One of our group mate is going on maternity leave and there was this new (hi-fi) girl joining in her position … so to welcome her to our group we thought of this small prank…

We told her our company is representing World ‘Outsourcing Summit’ to be held on this Saturday in USA. I and other guy represented senior officers from our US offices who are flying back tonight to attend the summit. Showing up a presentation (which we developed for this bakra occasion) we asked her to give us some 5-6 quick thoughts for better presentation and attracting more client base at the summit.

Even while typing I remember how she seriously explained fumbling whatever 1st came to her mind about that subject. And how we went on listening - keeping our face straight (as if she is talking some junk). When she stopped blabbering after a minute or so (giving just dejected looks) we moved on to the next slide where we had her pictures with the bakra cap and a message “welcome to the vRock group”!!.
She was so angry that we all ran for safety… here’s the photo of the entire group.

P.S: Next day we even cut the bakra (bakre Ko hallal Kara)!! Forced her to take us out for lunch at our favorite restaurant!!


In my April blog I bragged about how I was crowned bakra of the day on fool’s day… yeah!! I too had the great opportunity of becoming the bakra … read here… becoming a bakra is as much fun as making is bakra …
