I’m gobsmacked, stunned, super upset, scared and nauseous. And no, this time it wasn’t from watching Big Boss. Once I tell you why I’m afraid, you too, dear readers, will be inconsolable, distraught, a complete wreck. Actually, now that I mention it, I really shouldn’t say, I mean, why spoil your weekend? Unless, of course, you are a Mumbai Indians supporter, and your weekend is anyway spoiled.
Let fate decide if I should mention this horrendous piece of news or not. (three seconds later), okay, bad news, (this really should be the title of this column). I tossed the coin near an open window and now Sushila behen on the ground floor has it. Sushila behen is the opposite of a golden retriever, she returns nothing. What the heck, (to use a Marathi expression), I might as well tell you, was it not Shakespeare or some Indian news anchor in glasses, who said, “The Nation needs to know”?
Okay, people, enough stalling, here it is. Just gonna lay it out in black and white. Future generations, of course, will have the option to add colour. Brace yourself, especially, if you are a senior citizen, or a Mumbai Indians supporter. Ready, please fold hands and form a circle. If you are alone, hold your own hands. India has forgotten her biggest festival.
