PaschimBanga... that's the proposed new name for West Bengal. I think they should have spelt it as PoshchimBonga considering Bengali people's love for the letters 'o', 'b' and 'sh'. But we will discuss that some other day. Today, we will take a look at the antics of a guy from the land of Roshogollas.
Scene 1 - Gurgaon, Jan 2007
Udaykumar Seethamsetti (let's call him Uday) was new to office and had just arrived from Hyderabad. He was searching for a house. Out of the 20 odd people around him, he approached Debobrata Chattopadhyaya (let's call him Deb) and asked him if he knew about good rental places. Deb told him to try Goonga Society in Sector 14 which had good rental places. He also added that Goonga Society was very famous.
Uday: Yeh society Goonge logo ke liye hai kya?
Deb: Hahaha... naa naa. Normal society hai.
In the evening, Uday went to Sector 14 and started searching for Goonga Society. He asked everyone he met about Goonga Society but no one seemed to know anything about it. After 2 hours of fruitless roaming, he came across a pan wala.
Uday: Bhaiya yeh Goonga Society kaha milegi? Suna hai Sector 14 mein bohot famous hai.
Pan wala: Goonga Society toh pata nahi lekin yaha par famous GANGA Society hai
The next morning, Deb came to office, sat on his chair and after he got up, realized that he had a chewing gum stuck to his ass.
Scene 2 - Gurgaon, Mar 2007
I and Jimmy (another colleague) were having free coffee (one of the few advantages of working in an IT company) when Deb joined us.
Deb: Just finished my call with onsite. I was talking to Norris. He was being very adamant and telling me to complete the work today.
Jimmy (has no idea who Norris is): Is it?
Deb: Yeah... I told him, “Dekh boss, yeh sab mujhse nahi hoga.”
Jimmy: You said this in Hindi?
Deb: Yes... why?
Jimmy: Norris... he understands Hindi?
Deb: Yeah... he understands Hindi, even speaks Hindi, better than me !!!
Jimmy (flabbergasted): How is that possible?
Deb: Norris is from Mumbai... so obviously he understands and speaks Hindi.
Jimmy (even more stunned now): Who is this Norris? Do I know him?
Deb: Yeah, you know him... Didn't you talk to him last week?
Jimmy: Are you talking about Naresh???
Deb: Yes.
10 minutes later, Jimmy "accidentally" spilled coffee on Deb.
Scene 3 - Gurgaon, Apr 2007
Deb: Mera Shwapna kidhar hai?
Jimmy (wondering who Shwapna is): Mujhe kya maalum?
Deb: Kal tere desk pe tha mera Shwapna
Jimmy (Doesn't know what's going on... slightly irritated now): Arre main koi Shwapna ko nahi jaanta
Deb: Jhooth mat bol... kal hi maine mera pencil sharp karke Shwapna tere desk pe rakha tha
Jimmy: Sharpner chahiye tujhe???
Deb: Yes.
That evening, Deb started for home and saw that someone had punctured his bike tyres.
