Monologue of my cameraman

Follow us:WhatsappFacebookTwitterTelegram.cls-1{fill:#4d4d4d;}.cls-2{fill:#fff;}Google NewsThis was a monologue of my camera guy on our way back from a shoot(and no you will not ask me his name). It started off by a very innocent question asked by yours truly, "So wats up with your love life"? (Did not have a book to read and the car did not have a radio and had some forty minutes to kill the distance between cuffe parade and office so what the heck.. do some small talk)
So here goes. "Huh ab main kay batoo..pata nahi kya karne ka? Settle hone ka hain par woh itni khubsoorat bhi nahi hain par na jaane kyon..bahut confused hoon.Shaadi ek sardard hain par married life mereko stability dega.Mujhe time pe khana milega, mere cigarette peene mein bhi rok lagegi.Settle hona chahiye, mere father ne toh 21 mein shaadi kiya tha."
A tired sigh and he went on "Main roz kam se kam do sau rupeeye khane par kharch karta hoon aur shaadi ke baad yeh saab bandh ho jayega. Mere dost kehte rehte hain shaadi kar tu settle ho jayega."
A grin later he continues "Gaon ki ladki se mein shaadi nahi kar sakta kyon ki use Bombay mein adjust hone mein time lagega. Aur Bombay ke ladkiyon ka.. toh koi kuch bol nahi sakte bahut fast hain."
(a gasp from me..and a thought "what exactly does he mean? didnt have the courage to ask.what if I get some more gyaan on the mannerisms of the 'modern Bombay girl')
He continued "Aur kya boloo mein...Toh aap shaadi kab karogi?"
I was ready for that oft asked question and answered "Shaadi aur main...abhi nahi...bahut time hai"
He went on as if on cue "Haan pata nahi kyon aaj kal ladkiyan late shaadi karna chahti hain (you can say that again dude rang on in my mind)..aur aaj kal ladko ko jald shaadi karna hain..duniya badal gaya hain." On that philosphical note he ended his tirade.first published:January 10, 2006, 18:06 ISTlast updated:January 10, 2006, 18:06 IST
