Nothing like DESI-pan!! :)

Haanji ;) Aa gayi main fir sey... :D :D I dedicate this post to all the people who say "Iss desh mein kuch nahi rakhkha"... "US/UK jaisi koi jagah nahi" "Mujhey toh phoren hi settle hona hain" "Yaar, wahan ki baat hi kuch aur hain"... I say "CHALO CHALO HATO, SIDE DO.." Aur haan, if someone minds it, post aagey mat padna.By gawd!! main naa, kisi ka dil nahi todna chahti :D :D. Achcha hain tootey... pehley sochna tha... desh se pyaar nahi toh main kya karun...khair chaddo!! While logging on to work today, I got a call from a relative asking me why I am adamant on staying back in India and not marrying a guy abroad and making it tough for my folks.Not for her, but for myself I summed up a few reasons randomly (without thought) and in fun on why INDIA IS THE PLACE especially when we are a day away from our 62nd bday... : 1. Areeeeey yaar!! India mein kho gaye?? No piraaablem!! Paanwaaley, Richshaw-waaley, Theli-waaley, Charas-waaley, Cycle-waaley, Car-waaley...In short itney waaley hain help karney koisi se bhi raasta pooch saktey ho... uski baat hi kuch aur hain.US mein kho gaye?? Bhagwaan bhalaa karey... haan theek hain, I know you have GPS there(uska paisa lagta hain ji), Par wahan bas take left, take right milega.. Apna Hindustani-isshtyle Shortcut kaisey?? hmm... aur GPS naa hua toh...Hindustani All-waalas rock!! 2. Aapki attention chaahungi, MANZ and BOYZ-log, Spitting is dangerous to health and wealth abroad. India mein, arey mast thooko.... No tensssion!! except at few places... 3. MANZ log agree karengey... DESI peti is ONLY available in Hindustan, jab jeb mein ho paisey kum..peeyo desi,RC aur BP... kaun khareedey mehengi rum. 4. LADIEZZ log, U gotta clean,sweep and even attend to your garbage on your own abroad. Saada desh mahaan!! Kaamwaali-bai, koodey-waali bai, kapdey dhoney waali bai,DHOBI,Sabzi waala at your door... :) 5. You don't get awesome street-food ( Chat, paanipuri, pav-bhaaji) pardes mein, the way you get it in India. 6. Desh mein, Every other ladiezz is AUNTY and gentz is UNCLE. (I call my maid Babli-Aunty)Boley toh rishtey aisey hi ban jaatey hain. Abroad, Aunty means AUNTY, you see. Complex!! 7. You forgot your lunch back home, fikar not... Everyone is ready to offer you theirs... "Arey yaar, chal aaj mere saath khaa...aaj main rajma lekey aaya hun"... Pardes mein, you SHOULD buy your own lunch. 8. India mein festivals ki bahaar...chutti-time ki bharmaar... :) Aisi discount-bhari zindagi aur kahaan?? ;) 9. Desh mein, when you are thru a crisis, dost log say"Abey!! itna dimaag ka fry mat kar, main hun naa yaar, jo mera woh tera"...Pardes mein "Why did not you get a medical insurance done"? 10. Desh mein,neighbours are family."Arey beta aaj bittu ki mummy beemar hain, lunch humaarey yahan se jaayega". Pardes mein "who? what? aha! home delivery" ;) "Aunty, humney nayi car li hain, mummy ne mithaayi di hain"...Pardes mein... Nayi car?? Big deal!! 11. Desh mein, people stand up and fight for one person, even when they don't know you well. Pardes mein, who cares abt u... 12. Desh mein, bindaas life hain...u dont have a bro or a sis... fikar not... Rakhi time and you will have enuff of them to call ur own. 13. We have the awesomest (yes, I knw grammatical error) educationists, engineers and jobs. India is recession proof ab tak. 14. India mein paisa kamaana aasan, yaa toh chat ki dukaan khol lo yaar kuch aur nahi toh TV actor ban jaao. 15. India mein: we shout,dance,jump and live it up for a month on a wedding,mundan and even on a promotion, ENJAAYMENT ke liye reason chahiye bas. Pardes mein feeki-fooki wedding :) :) 16. India mein... arey yaar... Punjab hain, Kerala hain, Bengal hain, Mumbai hain... aur kitni saari cities jo khud mein kamaal aur malaamaal hain... 17. Arey humaarey daily ke Heer-Raanjha ke saamney(pados waaley, dilli waaley)... feekey hain Romeo-Juliet.. :D :D (faaltu-giri) 18. India mein, jaaney tu yaa jaaney naa... fir bhi blogger dost se bhi tujhey super-pyaar hain... agar aaj usey bukhaar hain.. toh tu get well soon ke ecard ke saath taiyaar hain... :D :D 19. By gawd, animals ko itni izzat kisi aur country mein nahi milti... we worship cows, we feed crows,kabutars, dogs,cats for PUNYAA-KAMAAYEE. 20. We accept every culture and religion with open arms(leave aside politicians here)... aur fir, humaari mehmaan-nawaazi ki toh baat hi kuch aur hain. 21. Desh mein, you can scold ur kid to set things right, pardes mein "Dad how dare you touch me?? Am calling cops" 22. Desh mein, "Mom actually...well...mom... u see... Rohan... actually...I...we...mom... he wants to marry me, what do u say"... Pardes mein "Hi mom, we got married, herez our kid... isnt Rohan hot??" ROFL... (that was exaggerated)... hehehe 23. Desh mein, you have nothing to do?? BEG!! BEG!! BEG!! easiest thing to do. Pardes mein...Ahem! Ahem! 24. Desh mein, Eunuchs dance...threaten and celebrate when you are happy... Pardes mein.. Chaddo!! *Not talking abt it* 25. DEDICATED TO ABHINAV(AD)... Desh mein Rakhi Sawant hain, aur kahaan?? :D :D In short, Mera Desh Mahaan... aur Ji mere ko toh bahut garv hain ispey... :) Main yahin khush hun...theek hain I get angry at times.. par apna...apna hain... :) :) SO WHAT ARE YOUR REASONS?? ADD-UP!!

Hi:-)

This is beyond any appreciation, i could not just stop laughing while reading and your language is awesomest :P

Now that i am settled and think i have controlled my laughing, here are my reasons..

1>India mein, you need to go home for some occassions..shadi biya etc etc, you just need to have a ticket and some bucks, rest TT will take care(well on most occassions at least), US mein you wait for long wkend to come to get a cheaper deal.

2>India mein, you owe money to your friends 100,200..1000 you can forget (depends on the level of friendship) US mein, every cents count!!!

3>India mein you are invited at someone's house, mast jao khao pio wahapas a jao, for sake of decenccy, ek mithai ka dabba leke jao. US mein, you cook some dishes, go there and then clean your own plate and what not!!!

4>India mein convenience ke liye bike lo car lo jo chahe lo aur mast ghumo..Bidesh mein to jitna paisa parking mein jata hain utna petrol mein nehi jata yar :-(

5>Last but not the least, Desh mein dil khol ke jio, sar uthake jio. Bidesh mein usi ko pucho jo ji raha hain wahape aur masibat(difficulty) ane pe usko akhir desh hi yad ate hain

peter August 14, 2009 at 10:04 PM  

If u pee openly on roads in india u wont be charged but if u kiss openly ...u will be charged...exactly opposite abroad mein :P

points bade shandar hain ...+ve hain ..par then u can't call any culture bad or gud..there is no parameter actually ..that goes equally well for those who think about Indian lifestyle (haan haan Swades ka dialgoue maar raha hun)

Happy independence day :)
By gawd agar pakistan mein paida hota toh tin dino ki lagatar chutti banti meri :P
