Journey To The Center of Powai – Christopher Nolan

Christopher Nolan is visiting India and OMG! OMGZ! OHMAAGOD! Is the reaction on Social Media by most of them who never understood what the movie Inception is all about despite of watching it umpteenth no. of times! Now that he is visiting Mumbai, let’s see how an ideal journey from the International Airport at Santacruz to Powai would look like, assuming he has to reach IIT (Powai) at 3 pm.

12noon: *Flight lands at Airport*

Press going beserk, people yelling “Nolan Bhai Amar rahe” while spitting on each other looking at which Nolan is flabbergasted. In the mean-time our airlines live up-to their name & lose his baggage. Nolan has to fill a form written in Hindi “Laapata Saaman Khoj Arzi”

1pm: *Press reporters manage to get into the airport*

Journo 1: Nolan Sir, what do you think about India? Will you ever make a movie with Shahrukh Khan?

Nolan: Ooh whaay naat, he is a beeg staar, have watched his mooveez, would love to make the sequel of his hit movie Kick. *err*

Smart Journo 2: What do you think about the Indian Cricket team? Nolan: thinking to himself. *da hell is that? Where’s my suitcase which has the script of Inception 2?*

2pm: *Baggage Found*

Nolan rushed out of the airport to find a cab/rick to IIT Powai.

Nolan to Rick 1: Sir, IIT Paawai chaalogeey? Ans: No.

Nolan to Rick 2: Sir, IIT Paawai chaalogeey? Ans: No.

Nolan to Rick 3: Sir, IIT Paawai chaalogeey? Ans: No.

.

Nolan to Rick 154: Sir, IIT Powai chaalogeey? Ans: No.

3pm: *Nolan irritated and now his inner “Bane” cannot be controlled*

Nolan call’s U.S. and calls for a Batmobile, Batman at the rescue.

After reaching IIT Powai, tired & sweating he finds an empty campus with a surprise visitor waiting for his welcome, the Aarey Colony Leopard. Nolan gets an idea for his new movie ‘Batman v/s Leopard’

 

4pm: *Rescue Team hunts out the Leopard by teasing him with biscuits*

Nolan starts delivering a speech & as a token of appreciation wants to handover miniatures of Batman toy to everyone, opens his suitcase to find out the suitcase to find out a couple of iPhone6, watches a bottle of pickles and some fafdas. The bag is not his.

After an eventful day spent in Mumbai, Nolan takes a flight back to U.S. with the following thoughts:

  • Create a bat mobile for India to beat the traffic
  • Will do a crash course on who is SRK?
  • Watch the upcoming biopic M.S. Dhoni to know who he is
  • Mumbai needs snowfall
  • Can I ever direct a movie again?

The positive side of the visit would probably be that Farah Khan doesn’t make him watch Happy New Year & Rakhi Sawant not commenting that the best Batman our world has seen is Sachin Tendulkar.
