Location : Retail hut in a village called ItReallyDoesntMatterDoesItPur
Time : 11 AM
Scene: me making a pitch at the shop while this limping beggar swaggeres by, asks the shopkeeper for some money..the rascal's stinky as a pig, more alcohol than lack of hygiene.
Beggar: allah ke naam pe de de kuch paise garib ko, seth!
Shpkpr: paise nahi hai, boney ka time hai
(11 AM-boney?? just a day oin the life of rural india-shankar)
Beggar: Kuch khila hi do seth, raat ka khana bacha hoga
Shpkpr: Khana nahi, peena bacha hai..peeyega?
Beggar : angrezi hai to chalegi, desi suit nahi karti apne ko!!!
Shine on,India!

hahahahahhahaha.....
man, it sounds like a joke from one of those corny joke books.....
but most amusing part is to think of ur expressions ther and then..... :o)
And now imagine being part of the joke! not really a participant but as a physical audience..and having to keep a straight face as the 'sahabji'
Wow! Sounds interesting.. U must have been dumb struck after hearing thsi coversation..
It looks 'India Shining' is coming back to haunt us or probably to make us feel better ;)
Good name.
I liked the subject of this blog.
I am sure you can ask this guy Bible of Begging Standards.
Next time throw a coin in front of him and I am sure he will say
"seth, mein aaj bhi pheke hue paise nahi uthaata hun"
