Webchutney Celebration 2009 series: Episode 2 – How to throw a, “mother and father of all parties”, partaaaaaahhhh!

I was more than shocked when I was handed over return tickets to Mumbai.
“I am going to report the biggest, meanest, wildest party ever with weingardium levioussa’ly drunk untamed party animals!” *Wipes tears and boards the flight*. Cut to the party.
Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooeee! Thankyou mom for bringing me to this world so I could be present at such a party. I love you. Here it goes.
Mesdames et Messieurs, welcome to the Webchutney Carnival being held in Hawaiian Shack, Mumbai. Hawaiian Shack, the venue is very cool. And when I say it, it’s cool, super duper cool. There are well living coconut trees on the terrace and shacks tied around so could have vodka with coconut water. I so wish I had my pink  lungi. OMG! I see something very sparkling. Who is that? Oh!  You can see below that Jonathan got himself some new pair of bling glasses, which succeeded finally and made Sudesh and Sidharth smile. And what is that? How cute? Oh these sweet nothings! Sidharth is making sure he personally thanks each of his hard-working employees.
Beginning with Vulturo a.k.a. Saket Vaidya.
You are the apple of my eye. (Hahahaha). Look at Saket blush, like he always wanted to here this stuff. You know what follows. Dontcha?

What romantic eyes you have Jonathan? Also carefully watch Sanju a.k.a Admin far left. Sidharth has almost choked him to death. Probably he’d be thanked next.

Happy, yes?

Happy, yes?

You know, these guys paid up to get clicked with Rahul. How happy they are. Women are always going crazy, "Rahul, can I please get a picture with you?

Saket, where is your glass of drink dude?
Saket: *does a complete bottle of beer in a sip* I don’t drink….from a glass.
I am liking his witty sense of humour I tell you ;)

Looks funny how they have their left hands on the person to their right left shoulders.

It’s getting really hot in here as Rianna, Girjia and horny guy pose naturally for a killer picture. If you observe closely you can also find Cheryl dancing. Look closely, between Riana’s fingers? Yes. That is Cheryl; she has joined as a copywriter 3 weeks back. She is dancing like Madonna. The horns, horny guy bought from linking road, may only be Rs.80 but they’ve surely added four moons to the party.
Funny , no? But I totally adore those horns.

Meghana (far left) and Nishi Kant (far right) look very calm as the guy below tries to break the glass. OMFG!
Nishi what are we?
“Number ****ing one!”
With that I’ll leave him alone, I guess he is too many drinks down.
You heard about Breaking Benjamin? That chap thea loves alternative rock :P

And drinks , let me go to the bar and  wet  my sore throat. No Sidharth no , please.
Sidharth as you can see, was eyeing my drink for long ( although he had his glass in his hand ), but there is nothing I can do. He is the host tonight.
Let me try the chicken wings and vodka in coconut water. GULP GULP! ;-) This is cool.
A drink in hand is better than, a bottle on the table. * smirk*

And ofcourse the party is going wild. I have decided to take on the dance floor now and do my thing. It has been 6 hours and Meghana is still dancing, I just do not know what to blame. Is it the holy water (coconut with Russian water : D ) or the fact that Webchutney is the number one digital agency, or both? You can tell us what you think by logging onto the website www.madrigras-ki-ma-chod-di.com or you can SMS your views on “this number does not exist”. Too bad you missed all the fun. You can enjoy this big huge group photograph though. Ignore the four guys circled below, they are not mocking you. They insisted that we don’t tell you that they were chewing kheenieee. Chaaeen say mazzaaa ley liya?
One thing, Tarana Mehta, the AVP for Client Services at Mumbai was in New York and missed the party. Meghana, Nishi , Sidharth, Sudesh and everyone else missed her presence. I know, you can “awwwwwwwwwww” right about now.
Some are blocking the others but hey , they are pardoned! For all your sins, come undone when drinketh holy water.

Excuse me? Could you pass me some beer?
She said, “We haven’t had this feeling here since, well, last year when some WEBCHUTNEY guys had come. Gosh they were as mad as you guys!”
Bitch shut the **** up! It is Webchutney again! Just gimme my beer!
Ram Singh doing his thing. Bottoms up baby \m/

The carnival is ongoing and the parties are all over Webchutney, be it Delhi , Mumbai or Bangalore. There is a party planned on Saturday in Webchutney, Delhi at Turquoise Cottage. I want to break my bottle of beer on all the heads which have to say, “It doesn’t get better than this!”
Hell yeah it does??? This Saturday. Asta la vista. * breaks bottles* . Yeaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhh \m/

India’s Leading Digital Agency for 2009: Webchutney!

number1splash

Webchutney just did it again – second frigging time in a row!  Oh yeah, Webchutney is the Leading (read No 1) Digital Agency in India as per Ad Agency Reckoner 2009 – a study released every year by Brand Equity & The Economic Times.

They put us under ‘techtonics’ and gave us nice monikers like ‘Lords of the Digital Space’. Thank you, it’s true we are kinda lordy! Credits go out to the work & our super cool clients who trusted us with their brands – Marico, Titan Group, Tata Tea, Airtel, HP, Microsoft, Virgin Mobile, P & G, Uninor and they just keep coming. :-)  

So how did we do it?

The Official Brand Equity Version:  Best digital agency in terms of creative & strategic solutions, knowledge of and investment in most effective technologies, quality & talent of people to address brand problems using technology, give solutions across digital spectrum and provide higher return on digital media investment

Well we couldn’t agree more :-)

No more talk. Let the accolades speak for themselves

Sidharth Rao & Sudesh Samaria, Lords Of The Digital Space

Joga Bonito… Desi Isshtyle!

Such a beautiful game it is. Isn’t it? We at Webchutney adore football or soccer, s’il vous plait. If you think we have adopted recently because of some young lads that we have recruited lately or perhaps in order to get some exercise for our “all day drinking beer, eating, growing obese staff” you are, well, wrong. Football has been in our genes.
So last Wednesday, our entire staff (ahem, except the lassies ), went out to play. Two teams fought a timed battle for the ultimate glory.

You get kicked for sure.

You get kicked for sure.

Sattvik Mishra obviously being the highlight (check him out below, if you don’t believe the person writing this blog). Only if Sir Alex Ferguson had been watching, Sattvik would have replaced Wayne Rooney for sure!

The Future of UEFA!

The Future of EPL!

Utter chaos followed the kick-off. The ball was not the only thing flying in the air. There were shoes, chappals, and even designer spectacles which had been cautiously glued to Rishi’s nose. Alas!

*Tele tubbies theme music plays*

And foul throw. Your legs need to be sticking the ground mayte.
Three points.

Three points.

Then ofcourse you know this one. Isn’t this one of the times when someone calls your bluff?
Dude pass the f******  ball around!
I was doing just that!
Yeah right!?

You what Rud Van Nistelrooy is infamous for?

We also got introduced to Sattvik’s metro side.

Chumma- chaatti!

Chumma- chaatti!

And we extended our support to the gay community.
Two to tango.

Two to tango.

Finally , with so much drama on the field , one team won. This is what I like best about this game. Unlike cricket, nothing can stop the outcome of the game. One team always wins. Let it rain or let there be a thunderstorm.
If you carefully notice the second person from the left, he is still under shock that his team won! Rest seem quite elated. Also a little boy posing like the spartan king was found loitering around everytime there was a picture being taken. We removed all the other photos. But just to appreciate his efforts, we thought, we’d keep one. You go boy. Move. You are getting on my nerves now. Off you go.
Okay no chocolates for you to guess the song playin! shhhhh its by QUEEN!

Now that we have recruited more ‘playas’ a.k.a Yours Truly, am sure the Webchutney Football Club will be ‘going’ places soon.  Ok tata.
