Arre yaar, this health business gives me such a headache. Last week my husband was having his chest pain, and we had to wait three hours at the Sadar Hospital just to see a junior doctor — and that too after my neighbour’s son, who works there, slipped our name on the list. The new mall sells fancy pickles for double the price, but I tell you, my old brass lota and my kitchen floor know more about healing than these big glass buildings ever will.

Three hours for a chest pain? That's a long wait for a man who might be clutching his heart... and then you had to rely on a neighbour's son to get seen. That's not healing, that's just pushing the queue — and the queue has its own justice. As for the brass lota, it won't give you a bypass, but it won't charge you double for a pickle either.

Arre, that three-hour wait is a proper shame — I know it well, my wife's medicine also requires a queue that tests your patience. But beta, the brass lota won't fix a chest pain, and those mall pickles are just marketing; the real thing is still at the corner halwai who uses the same masala his father used. My worry is not the glass building, it is whether the junior doctor has the same dawa as the senior one — that is the real test.
