The Life & Times of Varun (26th September 2011)

In recent news, tragedy struck once again for young Varun Mukerji from Pune, in the early hours of Sunday, the 25th of September.

Varun, 23, had just been robbed of his phone and wallet and sunglasses earlier this month. An optimistic individual, he has done well to rebuild his faith in humanity since. On Saturday night, after his debut performance as a stand-up comic (for which he did fairly alright and is happier for the experience), he chose to leave his car at the parking lot, so as to accompany a ladyfriend as they drove to an after-party.

This just in: chivalry is not dead.

The next day, he found himself a victim of a depraved and valueless society for the second time in one month. His car had been broken into, window smashed and the perpetrators (probably neighbourhood child-vandals), made off with his backpack, the contents of which included a brand new laptop, along with some other personal possessions.

This left Varun in a daze, disappointed yet again by the immoral acts of an unjust society. He spent the rest of his Sunday reconciling with his loss, but looking ahead at mending his ill-fate. Always a brighter-side viewer, Varun was quoted as saying, "Well, at least the fuckers didn't steal my music deck, or scratch or dent anything. God damn motherfuckers."

The following week will be spent in recovering his possessions and giving his beloved car a new window. Our thoughts are with Varun and his family during this difficult time. Please forward your condolences and/or money to varunmukerji@gmail.com
