Emotionally Speaking

This post was not planned but it is happening just the same. I visited Ashish Gupta’s blog to read his recent post ‘harassed by wife’ . A hyperlink took me the following photograph on Kraz Arkin’s blog which I am posting here without his permission:

I could not resist the temptation to dial the two phone nos. First I dialled the MTNL no. from my MTNL phone (the 9868 one) and it was unanswered.

Then I dialled the other no. and the ringtone was guess what?

Mujhe meri beewi se bachao….

A voice that belonged to a middle aged man answered the call. I asked the details of his ‘mission’ or if he has a blog/website. He is an advocate in the Supreme Court – Mr. R.P. Chugh (“Comrade Chugh”).

He gave many website addresses:

• http://patnipeeditmanch.gq.nu/

• http://mencell.weebly.com/

• http://mancell.i8.com/

You can read about it (the PTI November 2005 story in the Indian Express here (as referred to by both Aashish and Kraz). An excerpt:

P.S.: I am quite opinionated on this: doomed is the man who does not want to be scolded by his woman! When I am married I would want my wife to scold me frequently! The menfolk will not agree with me. May be the grass is not so green on the other side of the hill; may be the sound of drum is pleasant but only from a distance! I don’t care a damn, just the same! Just kidding!
