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 "
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.

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"
