Reminds me of my friend back in school. His name was Mohammad J, but everyone called him J when that was in fact his dad's name. A teacher once called up his home and she said 'Can I speak to J?'. H*is mum had picked up the phone and was taken aback at some random lady on first name terms with her husband.*
she must've been like "Ni tu kaun hai ni merey khavind nu puchan wali nii" LOL jk
This happens with me all the time. My husband's friends call and say " can I talk to your dad, beta" . Apparently I sound like a 10 year old boy on the phone :(
But on a completely different note, don't you just hate it when 'single' auntie jees who are twice your age call you baji just because you are married and they are not!
All my friends and family ring my mobile now. The only people that ring the land line are double glazing salesman and scammers from some Indian call centre ringing to tell me my microsoft pc has a virus and if I don't give them my credit card details my pc will explode.
dont know about phone but his happened in real (some 16 years ago).
One of my sisters’s neighbor in Canada and their good family friends were visiting Pakistan (wife and husband). So they also visited us. My Nani (grandmom) was also at our place that day. So she was taking to the wife and said “aap k baitey nai tu kuch bhi nahi khaay. In ko kaheen samosa leen special hota hai yahaan ka”
Caller: Hello son, Can I speak with your dad please?
Me: Dad isn't home, may I ask who's calling.
Caller: Tell your dad Asad Kidwai ka phone tha
Me: kiss ki dawai?
Caller: Asad Kidwai...
Me: what dawai?
Caller: It's okay beta, I'll talk to him tomorrow!
Haha, This must have been close to 20 years ago but I can never forget!
A salesman came to a friends house once and asked her to get her mom. She said she was the mom. I told her you should have said, forget mom, I"m the big daddy around here.
It's happened to me quite a few times and can't say it's a bad thing, especially when you get telemarketing calls.
I just tell them I'm 15 and my parents aren't home. Works every time.
Me: Hi just wondering if your chicken is Halal
Takeaway: Yes Im bilal
Me: No Halal
Takeaway: Yes Bilal
hangs up
This happened to my mum at a really boring dawat.
Me and my mum were at this dawat with loads of people at some hall and i was bored out my face because the aunties were talking about pots and pans and what not so this mum says to me oh look there is a girl over there with her mum who looks bored too ill introduce you two.
So me and my and my go over and my mum goes over and introduces her and says ' aap ki beti bhi bahot bore lagrahi hai' and the lady says ' this is my older sister' awkward silence
