Who is He?
The main reason for you being on this post is for the answer to the above question.
Over the past one week, some of you painstakingly followed a tiresome story. I have provided answers to all your other questions but I didn’t reveal the main thread, His identity. He tortured, He thought, He entertained and He died. He might have earned some sympathy in the end, but read on to know the identity of ‘He’, the entertainer.
For all those who have guessed the crux of the story, this revelation may come as a bit of a shocker. But please post your wild theories in the comment section of this post!.
Back to the point,
Who is He?
I s He a relative to the Girl?
Is He an enemy to Her father?
Is He a serial killer?
Is He Her enemy?
Is He Her ex/current lover?
Is He some lunatic from the underground?
If your answer is any of the options above, I should say you are wrong.
He can be anyone. A teacher, prophet, priest, father of two children, your sweet looking neighbor next door, brother, lover anyone. Every male in this world with his own quota of hormones and body parts can be ‘He’. He is nameless and faceless. He has no caste, creed and nationality. He has only two distinct characteristics. Sex and a fickle mind. Or as in most cases nowadays its Sex and sex.
Every morning the newspapers carry some news about some wayward fucker pouring acid on his wife, a loved slitting His girlfriend’s throat open, teachers utilizing their ‘Girl’ students for the understanding of nature’s physics. The female species has become a sport for the greedy male race, and they have also become the scapegoats for media to earn money or let’s say more TRP’s. Many men force their barbaric atrocities over the poor and mute ‘Female’ species of today’s India, or let’s put it as the today’s woman.
Men see women as a commodity. They see women as wonders of Geometry but do not consider them to be marvels of biology. I am a man, Yes; I too ‘look’ at women, but in levels of decency. What ‘pleasure’ do ‘Men’ get from raping innocent beings?
‘He’ was an entertainer a post ago, but now ‘He’ is the centerpiece. And now, ‘He’ is the only one who can make us think. Think in terms of respect, mutual, for the ‘Female’ species, one of the most delicate pieces of art made by God.
This post might seem like a joke for the bloggers with a clean conscience. But somewhere down there, deep in the world of concrete jungles, there is a ‘He’ who is smirking at the post, the truth of life. Nameless and faceless.
I stop here, I leave the rest to you, to decide.
[Concluded..]
Firstly, apologies for those who thought that this post was a dud in terms of an entertaining factor. My sole aim from the start was to deliver a moral sans any morality with some high rates of mortality.
For those who haven’t observed, I have framed a new narrative approach for the previous four parts of this series, in terms of the narrating angle.
The first one was narrated from the perspective of a Bird sitting on a pole and viewing the events happening around. The narrative was fixed and it was mostly static.
The second one was through the eyes of a lizard on a wall, flexible yet only with limited frames in its sight.
The third had a Fly as the narrator, completely flexible and also followed a shaky story telling technique.
And finally the forth was from the eyes (if any!) of a bacteria in the scene of the accident, which eventually would feed on the dead bodies.
So go back and check the narrative styles again J .
And a BIG thanks to all those who have gone through this series from the start, Vipul, Mou, Pra, Shilpa, Choco, Shruti, Zoya, As the mind meanders, Shankar, Indian Pundit, Anamika, Roshmi Sinha, Thousif and finally Sonali (the mysterious blogger, who popped out from nowhere and showed enough interest by going through all the posts, one at a time, Thanks!). Apologies to whose names I have missed, please do remind me J . Do leave your precious comments!

i was wondering about the topics for each part! I was suspicious.. Last post i could relate BACTERIA's with dead bodies.. so thought its a sequence. But couldn't understand the first two!!
Great of you to think like that!!
Coming for the post, Its a great way to finish this! I must say its a beautiful story with a message!!
Awesome pawan!!
Btw,check out my new post :)
Damn awesome...this was like the best end it could have had...neva thought of it this way...n well now, whn i do look at it, it's like a whole new story coming up...the narration technique...it was all too good...keep writing...I'd love to read stuff like these...why don't you publish ur work...i bet u gonna get millions of readers than...!!!
- Zoya
humf!! At first i was like, wtf is dis guy upto, "saara mood kharab kardiya"... n seriously i was expecting a twist in the end, anyways the moral was more important, and if u read my posts dude, u will see the moral being highlited in every single post from the start (except my "hope" series)....so i liked it!!!
and the views of narration...... maaaaan, u have a talent!!! I had to go back again n go through quickly to realise what u mentioned in the post, (how dumb i was)......anyways all well dat ends well...... just cos of the story point of view der was little disappointment but the moral was important..... 8/10 from ma side...hehehehe....sorry for marking, u r far better than me as a writter....good work, keep it up pawan!!
This was brilliant Pawan. I loved the stories and I like the epilogue. Thanks for sharing your stories. Hope you write more such stuff.
Pawan!
You did not disappoint me in the end; here I've finished reading this thriller not with the heat in my blood but with the warmth in my heart. Great message, Great narrative style and above all great creativity. You are proving unique :)
The best end that the story cud have !
The best thing about this series is the point that... what matters is the cruel act and not the reason behind it.
looking forward to more of your creations. :)
i would say pawan it was a shocker, but i would say it is excellently written, and the message you have tried to convey has been told as good as it can be said,
again awesomely written and awesomely conveyed, you have reached parts of emotions which never could be reached and the story just defines it, everything falls into its place with the last part
and where r u????, i haven't seen you at my blog from the last 2 weeks still waiting on that email....,
take care and keep writing......
another thing, i forgt to say.... good boi, dat u wrote ma name orelse bang bang,..... dis owuld have been your last post ;)
lol, kiddin.....thnx for da gratitude yaar!
hey....I read all five parts at a stretch...and I hope you wont mind my comment...
firstly....i loved most parts of ur writing style...as i said...u were excellent at showing the diabolic side of the murderer/HE...its like scenes from movies like Se7en or Fight Club...
but what made me lose a little of the awe was your conclusion...and entire plot...it was...superficial? i mean....even though its not horrible, it doesnt fit in with the rest of the story....
and yes...i do feel tht the ending didnt actually support the moral stance u took, which i fully support....had HE escaped and, lets say...started another attack...tht would prove hw brutal and cruel this problem in society really is...
i really hope this comment is taken in good taste...i do realise i just suddenly dropped by and commented...
and oh yes...did i mention...the narration idea....brilliant...i was about to say the titles didnt make sense...but this...its a really cool idea...too bad i couldnt come up with it myself!:P
hey first time here..v impressive blog...WIll keep following!Cheers da!!!N thx for visiting my blog too...N hey my blog has been nominated fr d best blog award in short story sect.DO read my stories n if u find them intersting,do vote for me @ http://www.indiblogger.in/nominations.php?id=4

Hey....Awesome yaar.
""He can be anyone. A teacher, prophet, priest, father of two children, your sweet looking neighbor next door, brother, lover anyone. Every male in this world with his own quota of hormones and body parts can be ‘He’.""
Absolutely right.
"He" can be the cutest and sweetest looking boy next door.
Now thats a damm important lesson to learn. I am impressed by the way you delivered "THE MESSAGE".
Cheers man
Thanks for mentioning my name.
Cheers
Ok... cool... start writing another one now... or you might end up lazy like me... :-)
Very good Epilogue Pawan! Great! It could be any one!I agree totally!
Pawan,hi :)
Check out my recent post
I must say that was a totally unexpected end...Loved the way you have given the message :)
I had been a little puzzled about the title...well it all makes sense now...totally outstanding!!! You sure are an awesome writer :)
Nice one....read your previous posts and tried to understand them.
You are just awesome! :)
Thank you for dropping by my blog too.:)
very thoughtful, pawan.. agree to you fully, innocent women are being made scapegoats by the greedy sex-starved men! but 'commoditization' of women have been started long ago - the day when she was held as the centerpiece to demonstrate the ad of a neck tie! But you know what - irrespective of gender, I think only two species exist in today's world - the predator and the prey... and believe me - it could be either of the sexes and any of the roles...
WOW!!!! Amazing Pawan!! Damn impressive!!
The story itself was quite racy and captivating but the message in the end is truly incredible!!
You sure are moving in the higher echelons!
So what's next?? :)
Brilliant and awesome.
The best ending... this story could have. The message has been weaved into the narrative so very intricately.
Waiting for more...
