The Buoyant Alliance

(1/2)

Kaka is in a rush today, almost like a celebrity! Looks like Visakhapatnam is extremely pleased to host B.O.Y. 2.0; today’s events are chockablock. Yesterday today seemed like a dull day; but today, it has flipped on its head and surprised everyone!

Early morning, Kaka leaves for a radio interview at the 98.3 FM Radio Mirchi office. He is warmly welcomed by the bubbly RJ Indu. Adnan, Chandrasekhar, and Rajkiran – who have made these events possible – are in attendance too.  The interview goes on smoothly; a big credit goes to RJ Indu’s energy!  

RJ Indu completes her shift with the interview. She is eager to see Kaka’s bike that is taking him on this long journey of 17,500 kilometres. By now, she and Kaka have already become thick friends! On spotting the bike in the parking, she wishes aloud to get clicked with the famous bike. Kaka and the others offer her to sit on the bike and click her photos. Her happiness knows no bound.

On enquiring for the day’s plan, she learns that the next stop is Alliance College of Hotel Management. She grabs the chance without hesitation and expresses to join the team there. It is a win-win situation for both – her oratory skills will definitely play a deeper impact.
So, Kaka, RJ Indu, Adnan, Chandrasekhar, and Rajkiran arrive for their two sessions in Alliance College of Hotel Management. The backend work is done brilliantly by the bikers. By referring to ReBirth’s PowerPoint presentation sent by Indumathi, they have prepared a placard speaking of organ donation awareness and ReBirth’s information – without a prompt! And Adnan steps in as the English translator after Kaka’s Hindi presentation.

RJ Indu’s arrival is a surprise package for the students and an effective one for B.O.Y. 2.0!

RJ Indu takes Kaka’s leave and wished him a lot of success and pink of health. Her unconditional involvement in B.O.Y. 2.0 will reap immense results; her popularity on air and social media is staggering!

Next up is a newspaper interview with The Hindu. Kaka reaches the office only to be greeted with another pleasant surprise; the reporter, Ms Aishwarya Upadhye, hails from Belgaum! All formalities go out of the window as their Marathi conversation overrides unnecessary protocols! The day is only getting better for him…
