I talk English, I Walk English


UP village boy suddenly acquires American accent
14 Jul 2007, 0007 hrs IST Pilferage Inc.

LUCKNOW: A 14-year-old Dalit boy, born and brought up in a remote village of western Uttar Pradesh, has suddenly turned angrez. Rajesh, without any evident help, has started speaking fluently in English and does so with a proper American drawl, which even Americans are finding tough to decipher.

And that’s not all: He seems to have forgotten how to speak Hindi.

RapidEx Speaking Course Company was quick to pounce and acclaim the success of Rajesh to their “30 day Self Learning Course, else money return program”. Rajesh has apparently denied any involvement with the Company.

Wonders do not cease with this: His knowledge of physics and mathematics has left engineering students baffled, who more or less are baffled with their own lives. So it’s quite understood why he targeted the Engineering students.

Having already penned three books, the names of which Rajesh has denied to share with the media, Rajesh is now looking forward to some research work.

ISRO, which has been facing tremendous attrition rate this year, has promised a Senior Scientist Job to Rajesh also.

All of this may sound like a Bollywood script on one of its favourite themes, reincarnation. However, Rajesh, a resident of a nondescript village 40 km from Saharanpur, refuses to call it so. Though he claims that he has seen Sivaji 15 times till date.


In his words: "There is no concept of reincarnation. It is just that memory can’t be destroyed till there are sound waves in the world." This very statement has irked Google Chief in California who has spent his entire life in making memory storage more compact.

Rajesh’s mother Omkali( Name Changed) and 16-year-old brother Kaluwa( Orginal Name) are daily wage labourers.. His father Sompal is mentally-challenged. Asked how and when these changes came into Rajesh, Omkali said he has a Nike Poster room with “Just do it” quote on it.
The rest remains a mystery.

Meanwhile Aaj Tak reporter Deepak Chaurasiya has built a make shift house outside Rajesh’s house. He has dedicated his life to true journalism and has been covering each movement of Rajesh and as expected Aaaj Tak’s TRP has once again taken a beating

Hey AbhiMAN, Nice post.
FYI all clueless readers here... This is a satire post, a comical exaggerated take on one of the umpteen bizzare incidents that take place everyday and may/maynot fade into oblivion.
So, Yes, he is kidding and no this is not fiction.
Nice work AG !

Mr abhimanyu ,

The excerpt from your site “A 14-year-old Dalit boy” is racist. I believe it. Have something against dalits my dear buddy?

I wish you didn’t, thatd make you a better person. Are you sorry?
