A funny article



The standard of writing in Indian newspapers in not particularly high, so I was delighted to see a very nice humorous piece in the Hindu Sunday magazine of today. Read it here:

Do read it. It is very fresh and original, and comes from the author's keen observation of her interactions, as well as a strong command over the English language. The piece is filled with good punning and gentle humor. It is written pretending that the banking 'relationship' as a serious one and using the same language on it, that one would use for other relationships ('anniversary', 'interest', 'birthday')

You can leave a comment if you didn't understand something in the article.

Congrats Indu Balachandran !
