The Parrot of Doom: How a Feathered Fiend Terrorized Bombay in the 90s

You may have heard of serial killers, but have you ever heard of a serial killer parrot? Well, that’s exactly what happened in Bombay (now Mumbai) in the 1990s, when a rogue parrot went on a murderous rampage that left dozens of people dead.

The parrot, named Chiku, was owned by a wealthy businessman who lived in a penthouse apartment. Chiku was a blue-and-yellow macaw, a large and colorful species of parrot native to South America. Chiku was also very intelligent and could mimic human speech and sounds.

But Chiku was not a happy parrot. He was neglected by his owner, who rarely spent time with him or gave him attention. He was bored and lonely, as he had no other parrots to interact with. He developed a hatred for humans, especially his owner and his guests.

One day, Chiku decided to take revenge on his owner and his visitors. He waited until they were asleep, then used his sharp beak and claws to cut the wires of the electric appliances in the apartment. He then flew out of his cage and attacked the sleeping people, biting their throats and faces. He also set fire to the curtains and furniture, causing the apartment to go up in flames.

Chiku escaped from the burning apartment and flew out into the night. He continued his killing spree for several weeks, targeting random people on the streets and rooftops of Bombay. He would swoop down from the sky and peck at their eyes and ears, causing them to bleed and scream. He would also cause accidents by flying into cars and motorcycles, or by dropping objects on people’s heads.

Chiku became known as the Parrot of Doom, and caused panic and fear among the citizens of Bombay. The police tried to catch him, but he was too fast and cunning. He would taunt them by mimicking their voices and sirens, or by repeating phrases like “I’m going to kill you” or “You can’t catch me”.

The Parrot of Doom was finally stopped by a brave young boy named Raju, who loved birds and had a pet parakeet. Raju noticed that Chiku was attracted to shiny things, like jewelry and coins. He decided to lure him with a necklace that belonged to his mother. He put the necklace on a rooftop and waited for Chiku to come.

When Chiku saw the necklace, he flew towards it, thinking it was a treasure. But as he landed on the rooftop, Raju threw a net over him and captured him. Raju then took Chiku to his home and put him in a cage.

Raju tried to befriend Chiku and show him kindness. He fed him fruits and nuts, played with him, and talked to him. He also introduced him to his parakeet, who became Chiku’s friend.

Gradually, Chiku’s anger and hatred faded. He realized that not all humans were bad, and that he had done wrong by killing so many people. He felt sorry for his actions and wished he could undo them.

Chiku became a changed parrot. He stopped mimicking violent words and sounds, and instead learned to say nice things like “Hello”, “Thank you”, and “I love you”. He also learned to sing songs and tell jokes.

Raju decided to keep Chiku as his pet, and named him Lucky. He also told the police that he had caught the Parrot of Doom, but that he had reformed him. The police agreed to let Raju keep Lucky, as long as he promised to take good care of him and never let him harm anyone again.

Raju and Lucky lived happily ever after. They became famous in Bombay as the boy who caught the Parrot of Doom and the parrot who became Lucky.
