Me and my colleague Erum had gone to Lamington Road, Mumbai, to interview, let me call him Mr.X for our magazine. 10:30 am was the time given to us. So we both met at Churni road and made our way to the address. After couple of wrong turns, we reached the building. We entered the lift n were followed by a lady n a gentleman. As the lift started to move I checked the time and exclaimed for everyone to hear, “Oh, we are bang on time I bet we will be made to wait for another hr.” “You know how these business men are, they don’t value other ppls time,” I added. Erum gave me a knowing smile and went on to speak about gujju bhai (Gujarati business man). Suddenly the lady put her finger on her lips n pointed to the man. Well as it was the case we were in the lift with the man whom we were about to interview. Imagine our plight.
The situation was nothing compared to what followed. We were shown into a conference room; as soon as we entered we started giggling n laughing. We were dripping in sweat, so we turned our face towards the AC, pulled our necklines forward etc.
Then Erum powdered her nose before we met the big boss, she combed her hair, applied lipstick n sprayed deo. The best part was the deo; she put the deo inside her dress to spray it on her armpit. All the while I was observing and laughing.
Finally we were asked to go to the Bosses cabin. As expected the man from the lift was staring at us without a smile. We started the interview in a dull note and while nodding my head I just glanced around. To my horror I saw CCTV. The screen was showing all the rooms of the office including the conference room. I nearly fell of my chair. Erum was blissfully ignorant n talking to the man, and then I nudged her and pointed towards the camera… her face was worth seeing.
