‘Yaar what
is happening to our country, now we are going down on all the Human Development
index parameters. Look at this now even our Sex ratio is one of the worst in
the world’ said Sanjay in a worrying tone,who was recently transferred to Delhi from Bombay and was quite fascinated by the city and it people.
Vikram proudly stated ”Dost pure desh ka pata nahin par Delhi must be definitely leading.Likh
le it should be cent per cent".
Sanjay
said’What?, How is it possible, the last time I saw it was 866:1000.
Vikram tried to reason “Oye
nahin yaar we Delhite's are healthy people ,it must be 1000:1000,mere hi
teen bache hai yaar “ and he screamed across to another office colleague “Oye
Bhallsaab aapke kitne bache hai'.
Bhalla
shouted back “Sirji two daughter's both are girls”..Vikram glanced back to Sanjay
and gave a I-am-smarter-than-you smile.
A startled
Sanjay couldn’t believe what he was listening and said ‘Boss I think you didn’t
understand, by sex ratio I mean the number of
Females to Males and not the number of times you have Sex.
Vikram shot back
“Then why do you call it a Sax ratio, why not just Buoy to Girl ratio".
Taking a deep breath Sanjay tried
to get the answer by questioning ”What is your sex?”
“Four times
a week” zapped Vikram, realizing what he said he was embarrassed and quickly
added ”Bhai tu personal questions kyun puch raha hai”.
Sanjay on
the verge of losing his patience,took a deep breath again“Yaar main puch raha hoon whether you are a
Man or a woman,and you are telling me the number of times you do it in a week,Hadh
kar di yaar”.
Vikram shot
back”kya baat kar rah hai yaar, ofcourse I am a Man”
Sanjay”So
now that is your sex”.
Vikram still
embarrassed “toh aise baat kar nah, itna ghumaaney ki kya zaroorat thi, tum
Bombaywalley kabhi kisi point pey directly aatey hi nahin ho”.
Sanjay
adding salt to the wound ‘Sirji, every kid in school knows what sex ratio means' .
“ok ok ab itna gyaan jhaadney ki zarorat nahi hai the
other day I asked you how you reached office".
‘Yes I
remember that and I clearly said I came by a rickshaw’
Now making a great scene in the office, Vikram made this as a news item“ listen to this Mr Sanjay travels Dilli in Rickshaw.”
A roar of laughter from the office colleagues came back like sonar waves, embarrassing Sanjay who said
‘Sirji the
cycle rickshaws are called rickshaws here,Auto rickshaws are called Auto’.
‘Oh, so now
I understand,why the Rickshaw guy, I mean the Auto guy was giving me
condescending looks, every time I referred to his auto as rickshaw’.
Now Sanjay trying to change the conversation
‘But you
know what you Delhi wallah's bhu kuch kam nahi hai,the other day I inquired
with my landlady,Mrs Malik about her
husband’s health and guess what she tells me.’.
‘Unko nah
Heart aur Liver dono hai.’
‘I broke
into a laughter , she didn’t understand for what I was laughing at but we
continued chatting. Well on further probing I realized that she was talking
about her Husband’s heart & liver ailment.’.
“So what
yaar,this is our culture we don’t like to be negative,hence we don't use the word 'Problem'.”
‘Yes I
agree,you guys are extremely positive.'
Sanjay now fed up and realizing he had digressed ‘Yaar Vikram
baat kaha se kaha pohoch gayee,we were talking about the dwindling sex ratio of
the country,what could be the solution yaar.’
“Sax
yaar,its simple,you have more Sax and produce more kids,usmein kuch ladke honge
aur kuch ladkiyan”
“Aur
population ka kya?"
“Yaar decide
karle,what are you more troubled with Papulation are (or) Sax ratio.”
“Currently
its your Brain,which is troubljng me.And I think aapko Brain hai."
