CHAI BANAO
Chai banao, chaa banaa, these two words are the bane of every woman. The favorite word we hear, be it from the start of the day to the end of our daily grind...It’s the answer to every life’s situation even a friends answer to writing a letter to a loved one.
Even the Pm’s query to the budget, the rising inflation and the way he handles Madam Chairman is all done by drinking tea. It’s amazing how much is decided over a cup of tea! Clandestine meetings between lovers, the drinking of tea in the canteen, the dhaba joint which makes the best tea , the one which it gets it flavor from being made in the same pan day in and day out without ever washing it. They say it adds to the intrinsic flavor. Business executives working, striking deals, authors drinking their fancy-schmancy peppermint tea and the tea which has ruined all of us poor straight simple drinkers...Green Tea. It does seem to me that it’s a conspiracy by these MNC’s to sell their product rather than give us actual health benefits. If I sound a bit like George Fernandes , blame it again on the tea.
Housewives, servants start their day not by chanting the lOrd’s name but injecting themselves with tea. It acts like rocket fuel-jumpstarts our cables to work as unpaid, unrecognized, taken for granted homemakers. For amoment , think of all that a woman does, she cooks , cleans, nurtures , acts as a cohesive to the structure of the society and all this without any murmurbut is she recognized, nope all she’s told is Chai banao!!
