‘Take a deep breath and relax. Slowly you will go inside the machine. Nothing to worry, just ease down.’
‘BUT, as soon as I tell you to STOP, then please stop
immediately or else I’ll suffocate.’ I panicked.
I could feel my heart pump loud.
I cursed the ones who designed the MRI machine, of course I
had too. Who asked them to make such a small tunnel? They could have considered
such hyper suffocating people who can’t breathe inside it.
The machine started going inside and so was me!
‘Okay you can do it.’ I said to myself.
‘You will be there for 30-40 minutes. Don’t move at all,
else it would take more time. This is the buzzer, you can press if
uncomfortable.’
WHAT THE HELL. I had to be inside for 1800 seconds! That’s
like forever.
‘…..No..no…no….no…I can't do it. Stop the machine, stop it
now.’ I yelled banging the machine with an unknown force and tried to jump out
of it. Machine was still slowly tossing in. ‘OMG ..OMG…Stop it, you had
promised you will. I am the patient listen to me.’ I didn’t know what crap I was saying, but that needed to stop.
Finally after all the blackmailing I did, the machine came
to a halt. I was so relieved yet shaky with the afterthought. I took time to be
normal, by normal I mean to not to be ice-cold and do a shake dance as in 80s
or 90s people used to do.
After the whole scene I created in there, I was directed to see
my doc.
As soon as I entered, I started complaining, ‘I couldn’t go
inside that stupid machine. There is no way anyone can go inside it, or forget
anyone, for sure I cannot. I banged it so hard with my fists, then your people
stopped it.’
‘So did you break the MRI machine?’ he said with a big
smile.
‘I am no Rajinikhant.’ I giggled.
We all laughed.
So who is Rajinikanth? Everyone can suffice the brand ‘Rajni’.
He is the living legend, a commoner projected as a superhero in his action
stunts. Humble in real life and stylish in reel life. Our current Bollywood movies
are very much inspired by the action stunts invented by the legend. He works
against forces of nature, combats the laid fundamentals and challenges the existence
of gravity as well in some of his action scenes. Here is just a demo of his
supernatural powers-
Also, a movie can cross 100 crore
business just by dedicating a song to him. :) That’s the power in the name! Even in New Year’s this song was played in a continuous loop. No points for guessing it.
P.S. – I wish there was a Rajinikanth in me, where I extend
the breath of the MRI machine just by pulling it up with my hands. How
cinematographic life would be then. :P
