WOH SACH MEIN HAIN
Kuchh nahi. Bas yun hi.
Sar-kati laash? Yeh kaise ho sakta hai?
Subah-subah ajeeb-ajeeb phone karke dimaag kharaab kar dete hain.
Kya shorgul ho raha hai?
Sir, Kumartuli mein kahin aag lagi hai.
Toh unse kaho fire brigade ko phone karein.
Taza khabar.
Moorthiyan banane waale ilaake se ek jali hui laash baramud hui hai.
Sootron ke anusaar, koi usae raat ko wahan daal gaya tha.
Ekdum Shiroheen Devi ki tarah.
Toh lehsun nahi lagaya?
mujhe nahi lagta ki ab koi jaldi bahar aayega.
Baat kya hai?
Bahut der ho gayi?
Naaraz mat ho na.
Yeh tumhare liye hai.
Yeh marega nahi.
Haan, thoda sa nimbu ka ras… Bas… de doh.
Haan.
Kya baat hai! Aur do.
Tum log jao.
