The Angry Young (Cricket) Man.

Jadeja lashes out at the I.T department

Looks like Jadeja’s “Mahurat” shot was right in front of his house in Greater Kailash this Tuesday, 9 P.M. playing the role of “the angry young man” to the tee, Jadeja was seen in an angry outburst outside his residence after the income tax official left.

He has reasons to be upset too. The cricketer landed at the airport at 1:30 A.M. on Monday. His laptop was immediately snatched away. “I had nothing to hide about the laptop. If I had, I would have thrown it into the sea,” says an angry Jadeja.

Then came the Income Tax Officials the following night. According to Jadeja the officials perhaps mistook the entire building to be owned by Jadeja himself. They even thought the cars lined up at the building to be all his. They sure thought Jaddu to be one rich guy !

Yet what angered this budding Bollywood aspirant was, “As long as you ask questions about me it’s fine. But remember, you cannot talk about my relationships with XYZ.”

He continued, “Ask me about my financial transactions and I will give you the details. But nothing more.” Ask they did ! In fact, the I.T. guys will be opening his and his mother’s joint locker in Parliament Street soon. There will even be another call from the CBI. This would be Jadeja’s second visit to the CBI.

The parting shot from the angry young man of cricket, “Please know that I am not going abroad in the near future. I am here. And, finally, I don’t blame anybody for anything.”


A model Student?
Jadeja's school tools

What's Jadeja's version of a modern day class-room? Or rather a model classroom? Where else would he show us his stuff (ideas we mean), but in his ex-school - Delhi's Sardar Patel Vidyalaya. An amicable guy that he is, Jadeja was liked and is still adored by all in his school. Be it teachers, students, ex-Sardar Patelians - they all have a good word or two to say about our smiley Doiley.

Some of his old teachers still reminisce of the days when Ajay used to earn his school laurels. A sportsman from the start, Jadeja was humble and well…. friendly. He, in fact still visits his school often, and takes active interest in all school activities. What else to prove this than Jaddu's recent gesture of loyalty towards his alma mater. Jadeja donated a Lakh of rupees to build what he calls a model class room. A complete renovation which includes repainted walls, brand new furniture to match the colour of the school uniforms, stylish louvers on the windows, more fans, lights et al. The rooms look good, that is to say the least. The rest of the classrooms are going to be renovated on the same lines, with the added help of donations from parents and school funds. The school authorities are quite grateful to Jadeja not only for his generosity but also for his enthusiasm and initiative. What are old boys for? Especially the Jadeja kinds who kind of manage to make it big!

Jadeja does have that 'your next door type boy' look on him. Now add to that a heart that reeks of the ideal son-brother-student type. And as far as the ideal guy to dance the night through goes, well, Raveena would know better….or is it pretty miss Jaitley….or maybe….forget it! - the list doesn't quite end. Anyway, great gesture, mister casanova! Not only are the Sardar Patelians all gaga about you, we too join the brigade!


JADDU KI SHAADI 
The shockwave!

The headlines that hit the papers this Thursday, (22nd June) had the  entire nation (atleast the female variety) shell-shocked. Apna Jaddu had secretly tied the knot.

Now, there were several reactions to the aforementioned piece of news. Many of us felt betrayed. A breach of trust, maybe? Jadeja, thanks to his endearing smile and amiable ways is almost a public property in the  eyes of the people. They want to know what he loves, hates and drools  over. So, how come, they wondered, Jadeja could have kept them in the  dark for so long? The feeling was bitter and emotions ran high.

Second, the enormous, and I mean really, really and really enormous female fan following of the cool dude cricketer reacted, “ADITI JAITLEY? who's she? Daughter of any number of Jaya Jaitleys had no business in marrying off Jaddu.”-- That's what the 'Indian She’s thundered.

Now for a third angle to the story -- Jadeja had already signed up for  a career in Bollywood. (And that too opposite the sexy siren Sonali  Bendre, no less. Trust Jadeja to have a great choice.) Well, his producer's nightmare, quite imaginably would be their "hero" getting knotted up with a wifey in toe! Predictably, his producers were pretty  upset with the news. After all, wasn't Jadeja's basic U.S.P as the most 'eligible bachelor' ? -- There it went flying right out of the window.

And lastly, quite as what the wise men say----but not the least, is  Jadeja's own predicament. Jadeja must have been the most shocked of  them all! on two accounts. One, if at all he is actually married, he  must be tearing his hair out in wonder, as to how did the bloody press wallahs get to know! And incase, he is as bachelor as he was always,  Jaddu bachera must have definitely gone bald by now----after having  torn his hair out, wondering who the hell is Aditi Jaitley!


Good - Jaddu - Soul !

And here’s some more inside stuff about Jaddu-ji. We all quite know, at least, every self-respecting Jadeja fan would know that Jadeja is a pucca Delhi-ite, - that is apna Dilli shaher is Jadeja’s shaher.

Jadeja did his schooling from Sardar Patel Vidyalay on Delhi’s Lodi Road. Quite a brat, he was, in school. The smile, however, has always been quite in tact. Now, for some recent stuff… Jadeja is supposed to have donated a heavy amount to his good-old school, to build a ‘modern classroom’ with all modern day facilities available. For Jadeja’s sake, me hope that the piece of information does hold true!

At least one cricket guy who’s got his conscience in tact.
