“My son, you want a beeger role?”

“Yes, Mama!”

“What eese it you want beeger?”

“Well, Mama..”

“Let Mama guess…you want to carry your own lunch box to Parliament and not share lunch with your dear mama?”

“Yes Mama, yes,” said a pleased Rahul, “but mama, there are some other things…”

“Let Mama guess. You want to choose your own kurta pajamas and not have your dear Mama choose them for you?”

“Excellent Mama, but …”

“Let Mama guess. You want to see adult movies my son?”

“Yes Mama yes!”

“But only once a month my son, I cannot come with you more than once a month to cover your eyes!”

“Yes Mama, yes, but Mama..”

“Let Mama guess.. You want something else?”

“Yes Mama yes..”

“Let Mama guess, you want to make another speech in Arnob’s show?”
