[Sorry friends, for delay. I was too busy last month and had some problems with net connection at room. And more over I was having some trouble in framing a story. I had put a Fish-tank for the time being :).]
Pre-Text: This story has nothing to deal with Elephant's friendship. One question for all of you before going to the story: Which one is bigger, Elephant or Friendship?
The hero of our story is Ponnukutty [also known as Ponnu, Ponnappan , ponnappan, ponnuettan, thankappan]. It was the occasion of festival at our place [Naagam-Ganapathy vela, for those who know]. Our Ponu's best friend is Unnikrishnan, who is working in SBT. Unni had brought his friends for the festival. Ponnu has taken the responsibility of taking care of the guests. As usual all of them had become surveyors [Hope you know what I mean] by the evening due to the day long partying.
Unni and his friends left to see the elephant procession. Ponnu was left at home due to his condition. This particular elephant was little notorious one, culprit in several human attacking cases. One of his friends, Sajith [I think], went too close to this elephant, not knowingly, but due to his condition. Elephant tried to kick Sajith with his hind leg. He escaped narrowly with the help of his other friends. After this they went to Ponnu's place and explained the whole incident to him. Now Ponnu got angry. He said to Sajith 'Ne va ende koode' [u come with me] and took him to the elephant procession.
When they reached there Ponnu asked Sajith, ‘which elephant is it?,. Sajith showed him the elephant. 'Evanano ninne chavittan vannade?' [Is this the one who tried to kick u?].. Before anyone could realize what was happening Ponnu has kicked the elephant in its hind leg. He was again going to kick. His friends had to carry him away forcefully to avoid mishaps.[By Gods grace elephant did nothing. I think it even didn’t knew about the kick]
After this incident our Ponnu got one more name.. 'Aane Chavitti'..
Thats our Ponnu..
Snehikunnavarku chanku parichu kodukkum..
Aanaye chavittum..
How many of you have a friend like Ponnu, who is ready to fight with elephant for friendship?
WE HAVE!!!!
"Ne Ponnappan alla, Ne Thangappanalle… Thani Thangam"
