Finding The Guy - The Khandaan Effect !!!


Simmi and me are at that juncture of life where many are talking about, asking us, taunting us, some taking pity on us , some feeling jealous of us, some happy for us, suggesting us or bitching about us still being single !!

"Enni Der, now she won't find anyone"  
"I think she has a secret affair, how can she stay single for so long"           
"She wasted her time studying and making career - this was bound to happen"
"She had so many nakhre, aa nai chahida, o nai chahida, hun baithee aa"
"One has to compromise, you don't get everything in one guy"
"Girls should get married before 25 then they learn to adjust in another family"
"At this age Meri Jasleen had 2 kids, when will she marry and when will she have kids......Huh !! "
"Hale tak not married ??  Bechaaarrriiii  "

While Simmi and me were standing outside the Gurudwara shops checking out the new jutti stall , she was telling me how upset her neighbour aunt was because Simmi said NO to neighbour aunty's sister-in-law's son's proposal. 

Neet: Hehe, Good you said no. I have seen that guy, he doesn't look good with you. You are so pretty - Uncha Lamba Jatt chahida tere naal.

Simmi: Neet, Apniyaan families vich you know how decisions are taken - unanimously - mera Jatt gets rejected by chachaji, taayaji, Mamaji and brothers. He doesn't even reach me (giggles). 
See this is how it goes:
 
 Daddyji (Bishan Singh) says "The boy's family should be have a reputed transport company. What will I say in my friend's circle at Gurudwara. Pind vich ki moo dikhaunga" 
Beji (Raaji) says "Munde di daadi should wear full sleeves suit , lace wali chunni , golden frame de chashmei - these are nishaani of good khaandaan " 
Bibi (Sant) is a Bollywood fan and is very fond of all punjabi munde in bollywood. She says to Bade Papaji (Nihal Singh) "Saadi Simmi is no less than any filmi kudi. We should talk to Kapoors - Shaaed (Shahid) , Ranveer and Arjun are my favourite but Shaaed is short naale suneya osne bya kara leya. We should talk to Ranveer's family. Kade ni mana karde - I am telling you Sardaarji"
 Dr. Sandhu and Reet Chachi are doctors in Ludhiana and they say "MBBS nu koi nahi puchhda, Munda should be DM or surgeon"

Bir Chacha owns couple gas stations in Canada, he says "Kudiye, we are searching for a solid taxiwali yaan hotelwali family".
Jinder chachi says "Simmi da husband should be atleast 6 feet, rajda khanda jatt hove so that he looks good when he stands next to her brothers"
Pammi Bhua and Ravi Fufadji are very religious and say "Peen -khaan wala munda na hove, boy should be simple - who takes waheguru's name just like our Happy"
 Dr. Sidhu and Nimmi Maamiji - veterinary doctor, has treated celebrity's dogs says "Munde kol Labrador is a must. Je Munda houga shaukeen taan rakhun dogs di team. But no dogs?? Meri wallo complete NO. "

Manju Maasi and Raj Maasad ji who is IAS officer says "Munda should be from officer class, Bayee ji Laal Batti has a different style statement, wakhri taur"
 
Aman Chachaji is into property dealing, he says to my dad "Bayee ji, Kamaal karde o , here Jatts are cutting colonies and living lavish life then why should we send our Simmi to Canada and Amreeka."
Preet Chachi says "Simmi, Mera favourite colour pink aa, and we will do pink theme wedding".

Sarab Maamaji and Jassi Maami are settled in New York, own a truck company, they say "We have TRALLEY so munda for Simmi should have atleast HUMMER or LAMBORGHINI.”
 My Brothers say "He should have a BULLET motorcycle, He should know Bhangra - putt jattan de bulaunde bakre koi aake mai da lal takre , thoda bahut peg-sheg wala hove, pagg only patiala shahi otherwise na hove etc etc etc ......."

My Parents say "We are tired of searching, find one on your own and get married"

So many people are trying to find a guy for me but hale tak koi gall nahi bani. relatives.com, shaadi.com, jeevansaathi.com, punjabimatrimony.com, neighbouraunty.com, kittyparties.com, papa_da_businesscircle.com all of these have failed. Hun mainu lagda I have to put up a profile and forward my application to babaji.com.

ਜੋ ਮਾਗਹਿ ਠਾਕੁਰ ਅਪੁਨੇ ਤੇ ਸੋਈ ਸੋਈ ਦੇਵੈ ॥ (The Lord gives whatever is asked from Him)
ਨਾਨਕ  ਦਾਸੁ ਮੁਖ ਤੇ ਜੋ ਬੋਲੈ ਈਹਾ ਊਹਾ ਸਚੁ ਹੋਵੈ ੨॥੧੪॥੪੫॥ (Whatever Nanak, the servant, speaks from his mouth becomes true here and hereafter)

Neet: (Laughing) "You are lucky, you have so many people who care for you. But what about you? What kind of a guy do you want?"

Simmi: (laughing) "I have CRAZY DEMANDS"
