WOW.What a journey!!!! though a short one,really cool. Last evening(Thursday)…I boarded a share-auto at Sec'bad station to get to my room.And as u r aware.. the heavenly principle of a share auto is : Load the auto with that many people that even atoms could not find a place to get in . And adhering to that principle…the driver who was 25 to 28 years of age..filled the auto with all the bakaras who were dying to go to their houses at the earliest. The auto started…Total head count in the auto was nine.Four in the front and 5 in the backseat. I sat next to the driver.
As we reached chilakalguda circle….a traffic constable suddenly blocked our way with a small digital camera in his hand and asked us to stop. The driver slowed a bit and that constable took a pic of the auto..as it is against the law to carry that many people.And while he was taking pic,the driver started unleashing his humorous side..and said in a low voice..” theeyiraa theeyi…nee yaabba..ennni sarlu teesthaarra babu…”..and the auto moved..
The dignified old couple in the back seat enquired ” adenti..vallu dabbulu adagaledu?..” And the driver briefed that they would send the penalty slip to his address and he had to pay at e-seva. And he ended saying “ ee mundhu koorchunnollantha aa photolo vuntaaru” ani navvadam start chesadu..he delivered that dialogue in such a way that I could not help laughing..The hyper-active man to his right weaved a story-on-the-spot and said “ anna ..andukey photo theesetappudu nenu venekki thiriganu” (Antha abaddham!!!)..
I began imagining how the photo would look like.It would be a front view of the auto with four of us (only heads will be seen) looking at the camera through the glass………great picture….:D :D …..and the driver continued his story..
“ anna monna ikkaday gudi daggara auto aapaananna water kosam, nenu vachesariki okadu vachi photo teestunnadu..naku mandi annanu ’ anna, okka nimisham,nenu kooda duvukoni ready ayyivastanu..nannu kooda theeyi' annanu. vetaney aa police ’oye..nadu nadu’ annadu” ani cheppi okatey navvuthunnadu….nenu kooda fullu laughing.
In the next stop one person got down..and the driver..continuing his laughter.. started narrating another incident to us which occurred this afternoon…
“eeroju oka super scene jarigindanna....madhyahnam..okayana ekkadanna .ekki naa pakkana koorchunnadu…papam problem avuddemonani venakki velli korchomannanu”.
I enquired ” peddaayanaa anna?”.
The driver said ” peddayaney..pedda saar laaga vunnadu..tuckku gikku tie esukunnadu…papam endukuley ani venakaki vellamannanu” and he stopped and was laughing.laughing…Looking at him, I could not suppress the laughter and I joined him… He continued with his ever-existing-laugh ” nenu atla anagaaney ayana ’ EHEY!!!!! Ekkado akkada saavani(chavani) nannu.....nenasale pareshanlo vunna..madhyalo nee golenti ’ ani annadanna..”
That’s it….the way he enacted that scene was so funny..and I was like rolling-on-the-floor-laughing….Finding me in that state he repeated the whole story….and we both were laughing… laughing.. laughing……
Even now…when I think about him and that scene…I could not help smiling( a big smile)… And I liked the way he took that person’s comment in his stride instead of getting into a verbal fight. He was so cool and had great sense of humour.
