Deja Bose
1997:
Me: “Ek baar na ek aadmi hota hai. Uska naam hota hai na Devendra Kumar Bose <pause1 for effect> … DK Bose” <pause2>
Rest: “Umm … ok? So?”
Me: “Uski maa usko baar baar bulayegi to kya hoga?”
Rest: “DK Bose DK … <sinks in> Ohhhh … lololololol”
2005:
Ekta Kapoor’s Kya Kool Hai Hum, a blue-goateed Raj Zutshi giving instructions on the phone -
RZ: “Please, Airport announcer ko bol dena, Mera naam DK Bose hai. Last time ulta bol diya, kaafi problem ho gaya tha.”
Me: “Whoa! Deja Vu!”
2011:
Delhi Belly, a bashed up Imrann Khan fake-croons -
“Saabun ki shakal mein / Beta tu to niklaa kewal jhaag … Jhaag … JHAAAAG/”
“Bhaag-bhaag DK BOSE DK BOSE DK BOSE / Bhaag bhaag DK BOSE DK bhaag!”
Me: “Umm … meh”
At least the song is catchy.
