As Crazy As Crazy Can Get - Batchmates At NITIE
Bachcha Tendua: Well, you must be wondering, what kind of name is this? And how did he get this name, then lemme explain. This friend was supposed to say Tendua (leopard) ka Bachcha (cub) comes to our NITIE campus through IIT Bombay but as an outsider from Hindi belt, he said “Bachcha Tendua comes to our campus”, which was hilarious to hear. I am not making fun of his multi-lingual skill as India is best known for its diversity, but as a college student we need to have pet names among ourselves, as a souvenir. One more distinguishing feature of our Bachcha Tendua is that he spends more time with seniors than us, even dines with them. This also rhymes with his name “Bachcha Tendua”, metaphorically Seniors are leopard- you don’t wanna come into their attention or radar, but our friend- Bachcha Tendua- is like a son to them. However, indirectly it favours us also as he brings inside information regarding the scheduled programs, which helps us to prepare for better.
