Desai movies have a charm of their own. Long lost brothers, family songs,
villain dens hidden behind garage doors and such other absurd logic were
rampant in his movies. People who grew up in the 70s and 80s were awestruck even
knowing that those were not possible in real life. Even the Big B has
acknowledged in a few interviews that he used to laugh when MKD used to narrate
the sequences. This piece of writing is just an imagination of how MKD would
have used social networking in his movies, if they had been present during his
time. Here are the 12 possible scenarios I could conceive of:-
1.
Long lost brothers would have found
themselves on Facebook through a family status update.
2.
The suggested friends list of both the
brothers will always show each other’s profile.
3.
Twitter would have permitted more than 144
characters for the hero to express regards to his mother.
4.
The Elder Brother will be permitted to give
more than a 1000 likes for the same photograph of his younger brother.
5.
The Hero’s relationship status will always
show `waiting for my sisters to get married’.
6.
The Villain’s den will be hidden in one of
those Farmville Mountain.
7.
The Police Commissioner who is watching
Hero’s progress on `Criminal Case’, impressed by his progress, directly
appoints him as the head of special police.
8.
Hero returns to his depilated home 20 years
later to find his laptop working, from which he logged into Facebook just before
the Villain destroyed his family.
9.
The Villain’s den is found by the hero
thanks to a fish aquarium in his profile picture.
10.
Hero blocks the guys troubling his sister
from Facebook itself.
11.
The Heroine first reports the Hero to FB
for harassment, FB plays ball with the hero. Later she blocks him and finally
adds him to her friends list.
12.
Last but not the least, The Villain gang’s
secret code is `Orkut’

Aha! NOW the next Manmohan Desai has his own Wikipedia here :)
