The ZooZoo Cult – Love it or Leave it!

Yes, the latest craze is about the short white individuals with their egg shaped heads, their cute actions and of course their one of a kind giggle!! They are the new ambassadors for Vodafone and they are doing a good job too! I must say when I first saw them I kind of neglected them but as their popularity and their range of advertisements rose I too have been caught up in the ZooZoo frenzy.

Today one can get ZooZoo videos, ZooZoo ringtones, ZooZoo wallpapers and ZooZoo themes and animations! The ZooZoo characters thought to be animations at first shocked quite a few people including yours truly when it was known that they were actual people who were playing out the parts on the advertisements!! Hats off to the creators of this advertisement campaign!!


Everywhere I go I see someone speaking about, commenting about or showing off a picture of the ZooZoo clan. It even has over 7 groups on Facebook including 3 “official fan club groups” with over 1,40,000 fans in one of the groups!! Oh yes, and you can also download your favourite emotions, videos etc from these groups!

This is one hell of a following!! And if you are one of the few that are not part of this then do jump onto the bandwagon and check out the cool and weird world of the ZooZoos!!

A Comedy of Errors @ IPL

My fingers flew over the buttons of the remote around 8 p.m. last night and I glimpsed Chennai Super Kings take on the Deccan Chargers. Watched a few overs, saw the ball being hit all over the field and a slight boredom set on me, so my fingers found the remote and transferred my attentions onto Hallmark.

Around 9.45 I took a chance again with IPL to see what the score was… My mouth opened when I saw Deccan Chargers at 1 for 2 wickets!! My mouth further opened and a yell went out when immediately the 3rd wicket of Laxman went!! What was going on??? Are they playing International cricket?? Or some galli cricket???

And then started the Comedy of Errors… and it all came in pairs as if all players were enacting the 2-by-2 on Noah’s Arc! The first error was hilarious… 3 fielders running catch the ball in order to take the 4th wicket and all 3 leaving it so that the ball fell plum – right in the middle of the triangle!! Heehehe and I thought only the Indian team could make such bloopers!! What followed next was no less, when the fielder got the ball, but it decided to jump right out of his hands, kiss his jaw and fall to the ground!

This match was getting exciting and my mum and I sat down determined to watch it till the end. For the next few overs we were treated to some awesome batting with 6’s and 4’s being fit effortlessly by Dwayne over the boundary line.

The next weird, comic situation took place when Dwayne was to be run out, but the ball hit the stumps and went onto an overthrow, after which to make him out one of the stumps had to be removed… dunno if I have explained this well – but the cricketers out there would hopefully understand!! I managed to get a bit of the clip on my phone!! Check it out!! I could not stop laughing at the drama being played out on the field and the commentators were astounded as well!! This was really entertaining!! :)



Btw, Deccan Chargers had to reach a huge total of 178 runs and they were failing miserably!! Chennai Super Kings improved their fielding by taking wickets periodically but at 90 for 6 showed their weirdness again – 2 catches were dropped, one by Raina and the other by Badrinath… DC were then 99 for 9 and like a true Hindi movie climax they were all out for a ton (100)!!

A great match and awesome entertainment for a Monday night!! :)

Am back…

Yes, am back after a month away from blogging. I was definitely a victim of Blogger’s Block these past few weeks.

Well, let’s hope that the block has dissolved and I am back to my keyboard to take you further on My Mystical Musings Through A Journey called Life!
