Guest Species

Whoever said that guests are an incarnation of God, think again. Having seen so many of these irritants visiting my house lately, I came to the conclusion that they are no more than a nuisance-a dimag ko shot in our already torturous life. Let’s take a look at some of the Guest Species.

The MBBS(Miya Biwi Baccho Sammet) Family: this door ka rishtedar of yours has just landed in the city and finds the lodging expenses too much for his pocket’s liking. So he bumps into ur home with the whole jhund. He promises to leave in a couple of days ,but stays on for an eternity.

Speedpost : this janab arrives even before his mail has reached u. Always in a hurry to do things except when it comes to leaving ur house. All u can do is listen to his bad-bad which he dishes out with Rajdhani speed and smile ear to ear when actually u r giving him the worst of gaalis.

Padhaku : this guest is someone from ur dad’s office. he has come to a marriage nearby where u reside and so decides to pay u a visit. Confident that he knows each and every thing on this earth, he keeps blabbering on every topic from politics to business & sports.

Is desh ka kya hoga? :this guest has arrived late because his train got delayed. A frustrated soul he keeps cribbing on every damn thing from his tiresome train journey to the condition of the roads & the pathetic state of the country.

Yeh tera ghar hain mera ghar :
your brother in law’s father’s sister’s neice she has just arrived from native place and is trying to get adjusted to the city life. Curious by the apparels worn by the people here she willingly tries out each and every item of ur house from jewellery to sarees to sandals & make up.

Shaitan ka baccha: one of ur relatives is going out and so decides to leave her naughty kid at ur place. The result - u have to dish out a lot of besura looris, become a haathi or a ghoda, play stupid games which u have never heard of in ur life before. Even then ur house is a scene of khachadpatti at the end of the day with broken glasses , spilled food & toota –futa furniture.
