A US based company has just released a NaMo-themed Android app game, where the user controls a Narendra Modi icon, and races across 12 states of India, battling various obstacles in his path. The ultimate aim is to reach the seat of power in Delhi, and collect enough votes to win. Sounds exciting, but this is a pretty basic side-scrolling racing game. Think Mario, but with Modi - NaMorio.
This got us thinking that we could have quite a few smartphone games tailored to various celebs. Here are the top few we thought of:
Rahul Gandhi: You have to run through your past, beating obstacles like your own stupidity and the demigod status of your family, to gain an actual degree from somewhere. This has only two skill levels - Really Hard and Impossible.
Asaram: You have to run through your ashrams in India, trying not to be distracted by obstacles like female disciples below the age of 18, in a quest to become worthy of the name 'Bapu'. You can't even pass the first level without cheat codes, mostly because Asaram is a lowlife scumbag.
Dollar rupee exchange rate: Here, you play as an inanimate index. You have to compete in a hurdle race to reach the century mark. Each hurdle is Raghuram Rajan. But you will have many supporters around the track - corrupt politicians.
Sachin: You have to run through 20 more years of cricket, battling impossibly high fan expectations, good bowlers, fading eyesight, Rajya Sabha duties, etc., to get one more century.
Katrina Kaif: You run through Bollywood, facing obstacles like your upbringing outside India, fans who think you're cuter when you speak English, and dubbing artists who want work, to gain knowledge of Hindi. Most people will download this just to watch Katrina run.
MMS: You run through your life, fighting off shyness, atrophied vocal cords, and a dominant woman who does your speaking for you, to say something more than 'Theek hai' or '...'
Lalit Modi: You run through the IPL and CL T20, fighting against people who are more greedy and more connected and less original than you, to get back membership of the BCCI.
Aam Aadmi: Run through life, struggling against obstacles like politicians, onion prices, movies like Race 2 and terrorists, to reach sanity. This will be the only game in the world that is impossible to win.
Rajinikanth: The game will run through obstacles to get enough points to please you.
