So the world rejoices as a black gets sworn in as the president of US. Almost everyone, what the hell - EVERYONE has an opinion. So i decided to go around ask what people have to say about this historic (or not) event. This is what they said when i told them that a Black American named Barrack Obama was the new President of America:
Babu (my milkman): Obama...Wohee jo kal raat ko mere ghar ke aage pada hua tha? Bahut peeta hai saala ....
Bhavna (My grocer): Arre UMREECA mein bahut paisa hai. Waise uska naam Obama hai kya? Black bole to .. ?
Om (My car washer): ummm ... Saab aap aaj paise de doge kya ?
Kishte (the guard): Acha hai saab. Wo kaala hai so it will 'HAILP US'.
Now for some hypothetical individuals:
Putin: Let see ... (that's actually what he said)
MF Hussain: If i paint Obama - what color do i choose? hmmm ... I guess just one would do. And what should i call it. Ms. Roy - any ideas?
Barkha Dutt: The whole world is rejoicing. But look at the state of the muslims. Does NDTV not care any more? Stop showing Obama - show me instead.
Harish Mehta (stockbrocker): Saala poora market ka watt laga hua hai. yeh Satyam wale bhi na.
(.. on repeating the question...)
Harish: What... Barrack Obama..? Which portfolio? Up hai? Kitna?
Paris Hilton: oooooo .....
Elvis Presley (from his grave): You aint nothing but a hound dog ...
Manmohan Singh: This is in fact a greatest day of my, i mean, our lives. This time America will truly support me, i mean us, in our effort to steal, i mean create, a wonderful environment. Thankfully for a change the papers seem to have lost focus on the fact that i'm bunking the Republic day parade.
Finally, ASATYAM King - Ramalinga Raju: .................. I want another lawyer.
