�Bhai, all bulbs are fusing, switches are not working and the fan is making too much funny sound. Why you are not getting electrical things fixed in this house, hain?� My He is getting pretty upset. He is having to have bath with cold water again, na.

�What I am to do? I am calling that Ranjit electrician 4 days before. You know what he is saying?�

�What?�

�He is saying that he is in Goa and having good holiday with his family. Now you tell me. What you want to say about this thing?

�When he is coming back?�

�That�s not what I am asking�. I am getting annoyed. �Ranjit electrician is taking a good holiday with his family and what about you?�

�Haan�it�s being many years since I am going for holiday. Let me make plan with Shoki paaji! We will go in an all�mans group! Goa de beaches wich memaan- shemaan dekhange! �

Oof! What to say to this fellow! I am talking about family holiday and he wants to see nangi foreigners!

Anyway, I am calling that Ranjit again. When he is coming he is showing me tattoo on his forearm. �I am getting this in Goa.�

�But what it is?�

�It�s the picture of an electric drill. I am taking it with me and showing tattoo wala and he is making!�

Thank god he is not getting the picture of a fuse box made!

�Ok, now these are the works that are having to be done� I am saying after I am showing him all spoilt things.

�Labour is costing you 3000 rupees. Things will cost extra.�

�What you are saying?� I am getting horrified.

�Cost of living is going too much up. What to do? I am also having to bring up family, no? Now see, I am just going to Goa. How much money I am spending you know?�

�But why I have to pay for your Goa trip?� I am getting too much annoyed.

�Oho Madame! What you are saying? Everyone is having so many expenses nowadays. I am having to pay installments for so many things. How I am to do that if you are not paying me my fees, hain?�

�What things you are paying for?� I am asking. �You are buying some house or something?� I am telling him in mocking way.

�No, no Madame. I am paying installments for home theatre system and one mobile I am buying.�

�Mobiles are not costing so much that I am having to give you 3000 rupees for one day.�

�iphone is costing much money, Madame.� He is saying.

iphone! Hai mere rabba! I am remembering Prince telling me that it�s costing around 25,000 rupees! This electrician is buying Iphone when I am talking on a stupid 10,000 rupees phone?

�And I am also paying installments on digital camera, 36 inch LCD TV and I am thinking to buy my puttar good IPod too.� Ranjit is telling.

I know this Ranjit is electrician but why he is giving me shock par shock?

I am calling my mundu to show electrician where plug has to be fitted in kitchen. Mundu is coming with mobile in hand. Just like that I am asking him, �How much your mobile is costing, Hain?�

Mundu is telling, �15,000 rupees, bibiji.�

I am almost getting electrocuted with the shocks I am getting today!!
