when i met Paresh rawal Uncle ....

It was 9.30 AM...
place :: surat railway station

i was waiting for a rickshaw.... "bhagad", "chawk", "parlepoint", "athwagate" ..........
yeah... i waved for that rickshaw... got my shuttle-rickshaw to reach to athwagate .

[ what is shuttle-rickshaw ???
- please dont search for d meaning of it on GOOGLE !
its a local word... let me explain u d meaning!
Shuttle rickshaw is a rickshaw where more many unknown persons share a rickshaw
just for the sake of cost cutting!
concept is very poppular in every city for working persons.. specially i do prefer it as i think why to spend 20 RS when u can get to d destination in 8 rs? .... joyu have vaniya jeu vicharta shikhi j gai!
]

coming back to todays episode....

i was alone in rickshaw for just 2 minutes.. n after that i found 2 other persons seating next to me! one elderly uncle of my father's age just besides me.. n a young girl besides him... two more young guys accompanying the driver ... [total 5 passengers+1 driver..... amazing? naah its normal here, it can extend to 6+1, 7+1... depending on passenger's body/weight!!!]

it was usual drive for me though.. suddenly the uncle besides me asked " remember, yesterday also we were sharing a rickshaw!" ....
i just nodded wid a forceful smile on face! { generally i prefer not to talk wid strangers ... b
t as that person was at d age of my father i showed my respect by not avoiding his Q!]

"from where do u come?" ......
"Ankleshwar" - i replied wid as short reply as i cd give!

1 min silence...
now wid a gr8 suspense n a lot surprise uncle "Chipku" asked - " i also come from ankleshwar, have never met u on station!"
i just nodded without smile this time!
{ Well ... do u meet to all on station???.. then u must be seating at ticket counter.. }

"dont tell me u travel by SECOND CLASS ?"
"yes i do".... i replied without lookin at Uncle "chipku"
{ travelling By Second class is crime??? i was not aware! }

"where do u stay at ankleshwar...?"
i didnt replied....

"where do u stay at ankleshwar...?"
"near lions school" - i gave fuzzy answer... to stop conversation...

"what ur husband do???"
...............................................................


"beta..... i hope i m nt disturbing u! what ur husband's occupation?"
"he owns a firm." ---- i replied shortly just respecting his age!

"you belong to a businessfamily.. .then why u work.... timepass karva nai????"
"no..."- i didn't wanted to discuss wid him all why and how!
{ is it necessary that if u belong to a wealthy family u need not to work.. what u should do is do shopping... roam around wid costly cloths, jewellery and just do show off... }


"how many children u have?"
"1, a baby girl n name is heer".... i gave all possible info in single Question to stop his Questioning machine!


"and who else lives wid u there?"
....
i was pretending that i m sleeping...

bt uncle chipku had migh decided to do Phd on my family history...
so he asked agin d same Question...
"my jeth n his fmaily lives wid us!"
{i told him lie.. as i didnt wanted to give him a chance to raise more Questions like "if u live alone.. who takes care of ur daughter?... "who makes luch n dinner"..... n all....}

"where do u work???"
"in college..".... now my anger was increasing ...

i was askin myself... why i am answering his all Questions?
n i though....
May be he s flirting[yes.. such uncles r the ones who r expert in this skills, all gals reading this will agree wid it promptly!]
.. bt it is also possible that he is missing his daughter of my age.. or he s askin Questions just for passing time.. or he s just toooooooooo talkative[ like paresh rawal of judai!"]...................
- n it is easy to insult a guy of ur age or younger then you for such behave labeling it flirting... but our culture dnt allow me to insult an elderly uncle just on a basis of daught!

"then u can afford to travel by first class... why dont u come by first class? i will give you seat if u wish!"

"No thanx... UNCLE!"....
{ " uncles like u are reasons why i dont travel by first class.... "... i wanted to say bt cdnt! i tried to calm down myself...
BTW its d worse fact! --- though we can afford first class travelling easily, me n many of my executive friends travel by ladies compartment... just to get away from such UNCLES and unnecessary flirting that becomes headache as we do commute daily by same train!....}

"by which train u come back at eve????"
now i was too angry to answer....


"by which train u come back at eve????"
i was lookin outside of rickshaw to make him feel i am not interested in talk...
"by which train u come back at eve????"
i stared to Uncle Chipku wid a look of anger for 5 minutes...
{my friends knows @ my staring ability a lot! i can embarrass any1 without speaking a single word! }

It worked!

after my embrassing stare uncle Chipku got to MUTE Mode...
i thanked god... as it finished just by a stare n i didnt needed to slap or create a scene!

i wondered... its just @ me... n thank god as i m an average gujju girl... n yet i do meet wid such NAMUNAs very frequently ...
i wondered what would be happening to the gals who are very beautiful/attractive!

i also felt society has gone so sick!!!! whom to trust n whom to blame???

i am not writing this post to get sympathy ..

As me and gals like me are bold enough to cope up wid all possible odds and can manage such psychos easily... buy just wanted to share...

"aisa bhi hota hai!"

Hi Bhumika,

Your writing style is very much like Chetan Bhagart. The reason why I am saying is that it is about day to day incident with justification at each point and with a bland of humor.

Aisa bhi hota hai nahi!!, aisa hi chala aa raha hai !!! ;) The more expereince one got, the more expert she becomes to handle this kinda persons. Many a times strange ladies also do this type of conversation excaving personal info.

lolz...mam i recalled the way you stare in class...i still remember the college days when you were giving lecture and student make noise...you suddenly stop teaching and start staring to the class...and it works all the time :)
its happen usually and coz of this sometime some girls avoid traveling by train,bus and auto..

Bhumika,
I agree with your observations but, I think the action you took at the end should have been taken on second Q itself....and, it is not at all rude to stop such rubbish people just because they are aged than you!
Anyway, it is always a learning in life for better. We being man also, sometime face such a situation where people ask you personal-irrelevent Qs.
