'Just you & me, sobbing silently'- by K.J.S.Chatrath

'Pappu, Pappa & a banned substance' - by K.J.S.Chatrath




Pappu: Pappa, Pappa.

Pappa: Yes,  Pappu.

Pappu: I have to make a confession. I took a banned substance yesterday!

Pappa: (Shouting) You did what? Getting into drugs at this age. 

Pappu: No, no. You and Mummy had gone out and I felt very, very, hungry.

Pappa: (Still shouting ) That is no reason to take drugs...

Pappu: No, Pappa, no. I found an old pack of Maggi noddles lying in a shelf in the kitchen, so I quickly cooked it and had it.

Pappa: Hmmmm....Couldnt you have waited for Baba Ramdev’s noodles to reach the market? Now go and finish your school homework.

'Yesterday, today & tomorrow' by K.J.S,.Chatrath

Remember Vittorio De Sica's film "Yesterday , today and tomorrow' starring my favourites Marcello Mastroianni & Sophia Loren?  I will only latch on to the title of the film and use it to explain politics in India.

Yesterday they used to say, "We have been misquoted".

And today they are saying  "We have been misquoted"

And alas, tomorrow also we can hope to hear "We have been misquoted"

Perhaps all of them have read and want to quote T.S.Eliot who wrote in 'The Love song of Alfred J. Prufrock':

   "That is not it at all,
  That is not what I meant, at all."  

कुछ न कहो, बस कुछ भी न कहो!
