Adi-manav

Bin Das was the son of Mr. Baan Das. He was a really 'junglee' looking person with long hair! Wherever Bin went, everybody stared at him and thought he had come straight out from the jungle.

Now Baan was a celebrity and he was always invited for different functions as a chief guest. At one such function Baan was invited and was asked to get his little 'junglee' son along. This function was held at a prehistoric museum which specialised in the remains of adi-manav (prehistoric man) and was organised by a school. After the children saw the 'Adi-manav' sculptures in the museum, they settled down for the function. The principal of the school started the function and was about to call Baan and his son on stage. Obviously, everyone knew Baan but did not know his son. Mr. Baan Das was about to introduce his son to the audience when one smart boy called Shailey shouted, "Uncle, uncle, can I guess your son's name!?". Even though a bit surprised, Mr. Baan Das thought of letting the boy guess his son's name. So he said, "Ok young boy, what do you think my son's name will be?!".

What did the boy say?





"His name is Adi-Das"!!!

Reversal

Anirdhanush was very much concerned about his own behaviour. Everyone around him knew he had an ego problem and this problem was turning the world against him. He used to be very concerned about this ego problem but was not finding a solution to it. Once while having dinner at Chaturshringi Food court, he happened to read a poster - 'Let your Ego Go, Baba Arkay se advice lo' and immediately decided to meet this Baba. Taking an appointment, he went to meet the devout baba.

I met Anirdhanush a few days after he had met the baba and saw him pretty happy. Really curious to know about the treatment, I went and asked him what the baba said and did. He said, "Its pretty simple. I just needed to reverse my Ego and to do that I only had to exclaim".

That's it!?!? I could not have been more confused. How can one reverse their ego by exclaiming? And so I started thinking and then I realised how true it was...

The reverse of Ego was indeed exclaim. Didnt get me. Well its simple - Ego is 'I' and you already know what an exclaimation is. So the reverse of 'i' is '!'... Get your Ego out of your way now!

When are you returning?

Taranu had come to Mumbai from Gujarat. After spending two weeks, she was going to catch the 11 pm flight back to Ahmedabad on Sunday. While she was in Mumbai, she got a call from her friend Anutara who asked her when she was returning. Since Taranu had some free time, she asked Anutara to guess. So Anutara started guessing -

A: "Monday"
T: "No"

A: "Tuesday"
T: "No"
A: "Wednesday"
T: "No"

A: "Thursday"
T: "No"

A: "Friday"
T: "No"

A: "Saturday"
T: "No"

A: "Sunday"
T: "No"




Now that there were no more options, Anutara was puzzled and she asked Taranu to tell her when she was returning, to which Taranu said -






"I am returning on Sunnight"

Laaga chunari mein daag...

Wanna know the AJAD story of 'Laaga chunari mein daag!?'

Once the good girl - Badki is singing and dancing with her sister along a river when the muddy water puts a stain on her new and favorite scarf... She's too disappointed and returns home on the way singing - "Laaga chunari mein daag chupaau kaise!" and goes to wash the scarf right away. But even after many washes, the stain doesnt go off! She is too angry on herself and decides to punish herself. She decides that firstly she will never wear an Indian dress and would always carry that scarf with her in her bag, then she will also change her name to 'Natasha' and she will become a sales girl.
So starts her new life, running from door-to-door and telling people that she is Natasha (well, it doesn't really matter what she is selling!)...

One day, while doing this, she rings a door bell and a young, handsome man opens the door. His name is Rohan. Badki really likes Rohan and even Rohan likes Badki. So he calls her inside for a cup of coffee. While having coffee, accidently Rohan spills it over his shirt, which incidently is his favorite... He immediately removes his shirt and gives it a wash and dry in the machine and wears back the shirt.

Badki is amazed to see that the stain isnt there! She immediately understands that Rohan is the one whom she is looking for such a long time and she curiously asks Rohan what is his secret. He says that he uses 'Surf Excel'.... Badki is too impressed and washes her chunari at Rohan's place. They fall in love, marry and live happily ever after...

Here ends the Surf excel ad and then there's the tag line - "Daag Acche hote hain!!!"

Aloha!
