No offence meant to the Punjabis but we are just fed up of these Buntys and Bablis, Puppy Jhappy Singhs, Goldies, Sweeties and Bebos…not to forget, the incessant naach gaana they indulge, the chak de pattes, gora mundas, soni kudis, bebbes and Chintu de Pintus. Shaadi 3 crore ki, Imagine’s new enterprise is a big fat Punjabi wedding of Sheenu and Ishu (please don’t ask for their real names).
These two blessed people have decided to marry and even as you read this, they have gone through some half a dozen elaborate rasams (read long-drawn rituals where everyone is hugging each other and talking in incomprehensible Punjabi, thank god for subtitles) and a sagai. The girl smiles incessantly when she is not throwing coy glances at Ishu while Ishu is more worried about matching his turban with her lehenga ji! So you have him wearing a purple pagdi to go with her glittering mauve lehenga, and to our horror, they are even sitting on a baingani sofa…someone pass me the lassi, please!
