The Goan Slumdog
Our friend from Moira, Juze Bostiaum, appears on Kaun Banega Crorepati, Amitabh Bachchan's show from Mumbai. Juze has miraculously reached the end of the rounds by saying all his Rosaries and Novenas and has already won Rs. 50 lakhs.
"You've done very well so far," says Amitabh, "but for Rs. 1 crore, you've only got one lifeline left - Phone a Friend. Everything's riding on this question...will you go for it?"
"Sure," says Juze. "Aum ek last chance marta!"
"OK...the question is...Which of the following birds does NOT build its own nest? a) Robin, (b) Sparrow, (c) Cuckoo, or (d) Crow"?
"Heje mainchem cazar... I not knowing dat," says Juze, "so better use my last life line, and phone to my friend, Pedru Pochok (actual name: Pedro Pacheco) from Mumbai. He's a Mangy, but a Bandra boy and born-and-brought-up in Mumbai men, so he's too smart - a real shaana bugger."
Juze calls up his friend in Mumbai, tells him the circumstances and repeats the question to him.
"Arrey baba!" cried Pedru, "Sarko endo murre tu, simple it is...it's a cookoo!"
"Ah-vois, sure murre, Pedru?" asks Juze.
"Arrey Baba, hundred percent sure re! Pakka!"
Juze hangs up the phone and says to Amitabh Bachchan, "I tell cookoo."
"Is that your final answer?" asks Amitabh.
"Sarkem sure, Sir!"
There is a long, long pause, and then Amitabh Bachchan screams, "Cuckoo is the correct answer! Juze, you've won Rs..1 Crore!!"
The next night, Juze throws a big party for all the people from Moira, at the Moira Club. Pedru is specially flown in from Mumbai, as the Chief Guest.
Time for speeches...Juze takes the mic and asks Pedru, "Saang murre, Pedru? Foo told you? How you know cookoo isn't building its own nest? Otherwise you sarko bondo and know nothing about birds, re! Your fadder or teecher tol you, ah-what?
"C'mon yaaar! Bas-kya! Fot yor saying?" laughs Pedru. "You Goan Pãos are sometimes such duffers, men - everybody knows a cookoo lives in a clock!"
