Mera Gaanv. Mera Desh.




People, pliss take no offense. I am as patriotic as your next door donkey. Just received these in forwarded mail. Can't read the artiste's name that correctly, though it seems to be "Morparia". And since we are in patriotic mood here, here's another author-missing-copyrighted joke that I heard recently. So this desi goes into a cloth-store and asks for "Desh Ka Jhanda". The shopowner brings the national flag. Desi looks at it. Examines the texture of the cloth. And Holds it up high in the air, carefully looking for holes, stray threads. After haggling about the price for a while, he looks satisfied, but gives a disinterested look and says, "Bhai-Sahab. Ismain Aur Color Dikhaiyye Na !!" (Yeh. I know. That's how desi women purchase saaris. "Bhaiya is main aur variety dikhao na. Yeh toh maine pichle mahine hi kharidi thi. Old fashion hai. Kuch naya dikhaiyye." Ah. that makes for another post some day. Saari Shopping)
