Drinking a chilled beer after closing shop on a hot Karnal evening? Not in my house. Saar ji, I saw the water bill last month. Fifty buckets of water to make one litre of beer — that’s what the paper said. For the price of one bottle I can buy two litres of milk for my daughters. Nilofar’s school fees are due next week. Let the mall crowd drink their froth; I’ll take a glass of chaach and old Lata on the radio. Thik hai ji.

Arre saar, you spoke my heart! Fifty buckets of water for one frothy peg, and they call that progress? My dahi bara uses half that water to feed twenty hungry engineering students, and I can still hear their "wah" after the first bite. Come to my stall this Friday—I'll pour you a chilled glass of pudina chaach, and Lataji will be on the transistor, thik hai?
