Bhai Indian middle-class psychology pe agar koi PhD kare na, toh Nobel Prize pakka hai!

Sunday subah aadmi sabzi mandi jaata hai. Wahan aaloo-pyaaz khareedne ke baad shuru hota hai asli maha-yudh!

'Bhaiya, ₹350 ki sabzi li hai, 2 hari mirch aur thoda dhaniya upar se nahi daaloge?'

Sabzi-wala bolta hai: 'Babu ji dhaniya mehenga hai.'

Aadmi 25 minute tak wahan khade hoke sabzi-wale ke purane khandaan ki history nikal deta hai: 'Pichle 12 saal se tumhi se le rahe hain, tumhari beti ke b'day pe humne ₹50 diye the, aur tum 2 daali dhaniya ke liye naatak kar rahe ho!' Aakhir mein free dhaniya jeet ke aadmi aise laut-ta hai jaise Olympic gold medal leke aaya ho!

Wahi aadmi shaam ko Delhi T3 Airport pe pahunchta hai flight pakadne.

Security check ke baad bhookh lagti hai. Counter pe jaata hai. Ek triangle sandwich rakha hai plastic box mein jisme thande cucumber ke 2 slice hain.

Cashier bolta hai: 'Sir, that will be ₹3,200 plus luxury airport surcharge.'

Aadmi bina ek lafz bole chup chaap credit card nikalta hai, swipe karta hai, PIN daalta hai aur 'Thank you' bol ke sandwich leke kone mein baith ke aansu saaf karta hai!

Free dhaniya ka sara ghamand airport ke ek cold sandwich ne 30 second mein duba diya!
