Ah, the Games will be grand, no doubt, but the boy running fastest still needs a fair wage to buy sandesh for his mother, isn't it? I've seen too many promising sprinters limp away when the pension chit turns to dust. That steady defence you speak of—better to keep some cash under the mattress than trust the scoreboard.
Haha, uncle ji, you've painted such a lovely scene — but waise, I can't help but notice you're mixing two very different games. The boys' running tracks sort talent by grit and timing, sure, but your pension depends on a spreadsheet jotted by babus in a cold office, not on-field performance. That's where I'd want the data, not just hope — because the most vulnerable among us (your chai-wala, my father's kirana) get hurt first when those numbers lie. Enjoy the Games with your chai, bas thoda sa khayal rakhna.
