Behaving like Amitabh Bachchan!

After the series of serious mails let me share some light moments!
Well, it is related to a great friends of all those who drive (most of the time BUMPER to BUMPER)! On one fine day I was driving my Maruti van from my college (near Priyadarshini..don’t ask the locality it is on no man’s land…on the boarder of Kurla, Wadala, Chembur, Chunabhatti and Sion!!!) to Santa Cruz airport to receive my parents! This ultimate incident happened at the signal where roads coming from Chembur and Chunabhatti meet! I was accompanied by my friend Prabhat who always looks for somebody who can drop to him at his house at Sion). We were just talking with each other and suddenly I saw that signal changing to orange. And rule loving driver inside woke up and I applied breaks….but as the car was coming to halt I realized that I had crossed the signal post and currently I am in the square so again continued driving. And then there was a dutiful constable guiding me to the side of the road. Why did you jump the signal you look like well educated and all such things!
Prabhat started telling me ‘Yaar jada kuchh bol mat jo maang raha hai who dede!” But I cannot agree to other if I know I haven’t done anything wrong! So I started reminding him few rules! ‘Mama, rule no 122 says if you have crossed the first signal in any square and if light turn Orange then you need not stop!’ Mama went mad, his volume increased..’I am doing service for last 18 years and you are going to teach me rules!’ he shouted! I stuck to my stand…’Rule No………!’ Then they changed their stand ‘If you have stopped the car why did you start it again?’ I had an answer for this also…’I didn’t want create a jam so in a way I helped you!’ This verbal fight lasted till full 10 minutes! In the mean time Prabhat was continuously telling me ‘Yaar aage mat badha..sorry bol aur chal!’ But I was not in the mood to listen!

In the end group of contables gave up their stand and returned my license back to me saying…’Apte saheb you are behaving like Amitabh Bachchan!!’

Satyamev Jayate!
