A Humble Contribution To The Sardarji Jokes' Canon

Q. Why did the Sardarji have his own picture as the wallpaper on his cellphone?

A. So he wouldn't have to carry a mirror.

This kind old Praji, seated next to me on the flight, asked me what time we would land. I said "barah baje". I realized the unintended faux pas there and quickly corrected it to "sava-barah baje". Really clever of me. That's when he powered up his cellphone and I saw his handsome mug on it.

sure it wasn't a hand-mirror?

For a hand-mirror, its signal reception was pretty good. And a funky ringtone too.

one from my side:

Two sardars going to airport, miss the route. One asks the other, which way to go, the other (the clever one) looks up and points to an aeroplane, and says "just follow it"
