SSM: You know what… I just happened to read somewhere that Ajay Devgan
is a Punjabi.
Me: Huh? That is a lie.
SSM: What the hell. All these years you've convincingly told
me that Ajay Devgan is a Maharashtrian and I believed you.
Me: Yup. He is a Maharashtrian. Remember how I've always
said it is देवगण . The 'ण' makes him a
Maharashtrian. No doubt about that.
SSM: What crap.
Me: What? Remember he also had a Maharashtrian wedding
SSM: *Sighs* You know what, I think I should check all the
other ‘information’ that you've fed me with, about celebrities.
(SSM going clickity click on the laptop.)
SSM: And I was right. Sunidhi Chauhan is not a Maharashtrian
either.
Me: THAT is bull shit. She is. Oh my God she is. She is
Sunidhi चव्हाण .
SSM: Seriously, pronouncing a name with a Maharashtrian accent
does not make someone a Maharashtrian. And what is this whole deal about trying
to prove that everyone is a Maharashtrian?
Me: I am not trying to prove anything. I do not crib when
you go on and on trying to prove that everything originated from Bengal.
SSM: I do not. I state facts.
Me: Kadambini Ganguly is not the first female doctor of
India.... IT. IS. ANANDI GOPAL JOSHI. Get your facts right, mister!
SSM: I am not going through THAT again.
Me: And I am not the one trying to prove that everyone is a
Maharashtrian. I was the one to inform you that Kirron Kher is a Bengali,
remember?
SSM: Brilliant. Now let me check that as well… Aaand I should
have guessed. She is not a Bengali. She is a Punjabi.
Me: WTF the internet is lying. She is Kirron with an ‘o’ If
she was anything but a Bengali, she would be Kiran not Kirron!
SSM: Erm... She was born, Kiran.
Me: She also looks so Bengali!
SSM: *Rolls eyes*
Me: WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH THE WORLD!
SSM: What the hell is wrong with YOU!
Me: Let us start talking about Anandi Gopal and Kadambini Ganguly again.
SSM walks away.
