Patty is international now. Patty goes to India. He thinks he is hi fi. To patty ki rishte ki baat chali. Din tay hua, phone kiye gaye, mithayi layi gayi, ghar saaf kiya gaya, painting vainting karayi gayi. Finally vo din aa gaya jab Patty ladki se milne wala tha. Patty ke man mandir me tarh tarh ke vichar aa rahe they. Vo soch raha tha ki ye ladki kya hogi uske muqable me.
Here goes Patty’s imagination :
Patty is hi fi. So the girl comes. She is so so looking but given that no one has found Patty bearable and he hasn’t found a girl friend after so much efforts including phone calls from Chicago and all, Patty likes the girl at the first sight. No no…its not love at first sight. Its going to be an arranged marriage. Patty thinks he is not prepared to marry a girl, however his parents are forcing him to marry one. Patty’s mind is fluctuating. Patty prepares himself that he will test the girl on several fronts and will eventually reject her.
Patty : (Speaks)So how educated are you ?
Girl : (shy, Speaks) BA
Patty : (Thinks) (Baas do shabd vo bhi ulte.)
(Speaks) So what was your major ?
Girl : (shy, speaks) English
Patty (Conscious not to make mistakes in the grammar, speaks) : So what is your hobbies ?
Girl : (shy, speaks) painting, crafting, and sleeping.
Patty : (With a feeling of insecurity, speaks) So you doesn’t like cooking ?
Girl : (Thinking is he really in US ? Grrrr $%^&^% )No I do like it, but not too much.
Later she prefers to speak in hindi in a kanpuri tone which makes Patty crazy and he thinks she is not a good choice for him. He asks his dad to demand heavy dowry, however his Dad only asks for a car and some money. They call and confirm that they are ready, however when Patty talks with girl’s relative, he says he is not interested in marriage but in studies. (I am thinking – why does he sleep that much if he is interested in studies ?!! )
Real Show : The Day : Girls Arrives in a Honda City : All dressed up to kill : Smart MBA from a reputed institute.
Patty is international, but no more than a typical kanpuri. He stammers, thinks in hindi translates in English and then speaks a common example being –
“ There you go Manan !” à tum vahan jate ho Manan!
“ Whats up ?” à upar kya hai !
And does several grammatical mistakes
Conversation starts :
Girl : So whats your PhD major ?
Patty (Stammers) : umm…I am doing PhD in a program, which is in materials science and engineering, but I am working with a professor in electrical, on line edge roughness.
Girl (An MBA from a reputed institute) : Oh that’s kinda cool ! So how has the life been so far in US ?
Patty : (Impressed but conscious with the fluency and accent with which the girl speaks) : ya ya.. its cool .. ya , we enjoy, ya .. ya .. ya …. Ya … ya…and we drink !
Girl : (What ! he drinks ! There is no other better thing he does ?) : Oh..ok ! So you mean you party too much …
And the conversation goes on and on till patty finds himself exhausted and the girl figures out that he is a Kanpuri and nothing more!
She does not reply back.
Background :
Girl to her father : You know he was kinda boring, he is in US and all but good for nothing. I don’t think he an even cook his food himself !
Kya socha aur kya nikla …
But, Patty is happy and he lives a king’s life. He does what he wants, he sleeps all the time.
