My business venture:Rourkela Premier League

I'd just conquered the endsems and was quite packed up with thoughts of what I'm going to do in these three months of holidays...i wanted to master the guitar(since I'd heard even Arjun Rampal had done it) ,wanted to master the 4-wheeler and wanted to undertake some sort of a project that could have boosted my resume...but in the end could not do even one of them..thanks to unavailability of guitar teachers,the car's untimely breakdown and some uninterested friends respectively!!!
The only thing that I would end up doing(apart from sleeping and spending time with friends)was watching the IPL (without much thought going in)...until one day my father would tell me,"did you ever imagine Ganguly and Shoaib playing for the same team??what a wonderful concept!!"
That's were I thought this was the best i could do this summer..organise a tournament on the lines of IPL in Rourkela(incorporating every concept like bidding,practice sessions etc).All thanks to my group(Shiva,BonJovi,Gupta and Sid) they judged every practical aspect of the tournament.The participation was overwhelming..honestly we'd never expected this sort of a response..The teams were also named in such a way that they would make the tournament bright!!Fiery footlose,The Almighty Aryans,Hellraisers,Peevish Pirates and The Wild Ones comprised the pack!!After a few days of great cricketing action..Fiery Footlose emerged as the champions of the inaugral RPL(not without some contoversies though)..Though success of the venture was not guaranteed we always believed if Lalit could even we can..wait!!This Lalit is not the panwaala from the backpost , its Lalit Modi(chairman IPL,who was even arrested on charges of possesing drugs while in college)
Well the turnover of the venture was great.Quite instantly it made us the talk of the town..we earned a lot of goodwill and praises(monetary details have been surpressed)because business is not always about money!!!!!!!
