Well, Jimmy Zhingchak seems to be doing quite a boogey these days 
. Looks like there is a market after all for 80′s DISCO. Yeah behveee and aiee saala and all that.
It’s kinda a kicker for me since Jimmy Zhingchak (even the word Zhingchak itself) harks back to a simpler more ….ummm… zhinghcakier time from 1995-99, the four best years of my life spent in the rockingest place on earth…. IIT Kharagpur 
Jimmy was born after too many idle nights of desi tharra (5 bucks a pouch from the dhaba by the national highway ) and of course shyamal special pudias induced lying on the rooftop connecting stars playing connect the dots type of thing.
Idle minds they say are the devil’s workshop
Anyways nostalgia later…
