this is a book of short stories in a mix of hindi and urdu with a dash of random english thrown in. but mostly hindi and urdu. amazingly lucid and entertaining… written brilliantly. it is un-put-down-able… it talks of everyday life experiences and finds humour in things which can otherwise be mundane and often irritating… you have to read it to believe it how much fun it can be…
favourite quote: many.. “this kitchen is closed due to sickness. i am sick of cooking.”, “bahot lagta hai dil baton mein uski, woh apni zaat se ek anjuman hai”…
final analysis: must read if you have any sense of books…
