Do you like TA?

Abhiram…. This guy from Nagpur is always full of energy, and is always ready to help others even if he himself is in a mess. During our final semester exam he was wrongly marked as absent, so he had to come all the way from Nagpur to Mumbai to get the result corrected. Fortunately, the matter was resolved and he got 70+ percentage.

Anyways, I am not here to discuss his life here. I want to share one joke of his with my friends in vjcomps. It goes like this. .. In the final year of my BE, I used to work (???) for final year project with his room mate Pratik, Sankalp and Sidscope. Since Pratik stayed in hostel, we decided to do development in his room (D-108, if I am not mistaking). Now, Abhiram is all guns blazing when Kapil (another hostelite) is around. Kapil is a shy guy who rarely speaks about girls, forget about other stuff. So when Kapil started talking about some boring topic, Abhiram used to say, “Tell me the truth Kapil, tula ‘TA’ avadate ‘TA’………”. As you know we sometimes call Kavita as “TA” to distinguish it from “THA” which was for Kavitha (Do I need to tell you why he selected “TA” and not any other girl from our class? ;)). Abhiram used to continuously pester him with the same question. Also, Shere and I don’t need an invitation to join in the fun. After a lot of torture when he finally said “ha…. So??”. Abhiram replied, ”Kon Savita na? (Looking at the shocked face of Kapil) Arey tula kai vatale?”(You like Savita?.... No?... Then what did you think?)

P.S. : I know I wasn’t able to add the Masala to make it more hilarious, but I guess it was the whole situation which made that incident a memorable one for at least me.

कुछ बिखरे सपने और आँखों में नमी है, एक छोटा सा आसमां और उम्मीन्दों की ज़मीं है, यूँ तो बहुत दोस्त है ज़िन्दगी मैं, पर जो खास है वाही पास नहीं है ....................

Marathi Manoos

I read the following article in Mint yesterday. http://www.livemint.com/Articles/2010/02/19213129/The-Thackerays8217-primitiv.html I was shocked by the bias shown by the author against the Marathis. I completely agreed with him when he talks about Sena. Both Shivsena and MNS have done more damage to Marathis than they have helped. Their methods have been of violence and oppression. May it be Shiv Sena’s reaction to racists attacks in Australia or the MNIK controversy, common man is the one who usually suffers. But the author then checks the list of 30 companies in BSE and 50 in NSE, to prove that there are no Marathi person “owning” a company and goes on to say - “ The Mumbai Marathi, better at renaming things than building something himself”. Then he says - If we observe Marathi society we notice the total absence of mercantile castes. Into this space the British imported the multi-religious trading community of Surat—Vohra, Khoja, Luhana, Memon, Jain, Parsi and Vaniya. The...
