Mom(concerned): Are you comfortable travelling by train?
Son(mumbles): Bus or train… Okay…
Mom: Do you have train ticket with you?
Son: My friend has it. He is going to drop me at the railway station.
Mom: What about your purse?
Son: What about what about the purse?
Mom: The railway station is crowded. There are pickpockets! Be careful.
Son: Purse will be safe in my jeans.
Mom(thinking):
Son(watching TV):
Mom(all of a sudden): You don’t wear a banyan!
Son: What?
Mom: You could put your purse inside the banyan! It is more safe, you know?

ReplyDeleteYou perhaps know that in olden days, Banyans were actually used to carry money/wallet.
ReplyDeleteIn local language they were called "bundi"
My jaws are still wide open even as I write this comment. Imagine that!
ReplyDelete@Harish - :) So, you have seen/experienced this before?
ReplyDelete@Laks - Yes, it is from the mamans. :)
@Radha - The best use is the protection from pickpockets.
@JD - You have been away too long. Welcome back! This is the latest thing I did with the blog.
@Vineeta - So, don't tell Hritik about this. :)
@BKC - No wonder, my maternal uncles do this still. Thanks for sharing the info
