“I know such English that I will leave the
British behind. You see sir, I can talk English, I can walk English, I can
laugh English, I can run English, because English is such a funny language.
Bhairo becomes Byron because their minds are very narrow”
-
Amitabh
Bachchan (Namak Halal; 1982)
I am sure this will take many of us down the memory lane. One the most hilarious performance of Amit Ji, which makes him the living legend that he is.
We all see such funny posters around
us when we go out to eat Chainis Food or Cold Bear or Child Beer or when you are
driving through an Accident Porn Area or when you go to a Her cutting Salon or
Her Katting Salon or pay Twonty Rupees for Afternoon Snakes or when you go for
a Blood Taste (Thank god its only Blood!).
