"What did you think of Asad Umar's response to Shahbaz Sharif's Urdu proverb of a cat compromised by its own actions, you know when Shahbaz Sharif accused the PTI government of misstating achievements of his brother's administration."
"I noted that Imran Khan thought it was a good statement cause he thumped the desk but saying that the tiger, reference to the PML-N's election slogan, has shrunk to a cat was kind of not well thought of."
"Why? Cause you like cats?" "No, because in our language a cat is considered to have attributes at par with one's maternal aunt - I am referring to the proverb that billi is sher ki khala."
"And the sher, or tiger was Nawaz Sharif, while the billi, cat, is Shahbaz Sharif!" "Precisely so, Shahbaz Sharif should take Umar's statement as a back handed compliment you reckon?"
"Yeah, a front handed smart-alecky criticism and at the same time a back handed compliment."
"There you have the balance, hunh!"
"Indeed, and now let me balance my statement. Asad Umar was right about the data manipulation of the former First Samdhi, Dar."
"You know The Khan and Company must acknowledge that Nawaz Sharif was a trail blazer in many instances..."
"You referring to getting prime real estate abroad or the construction of a road network or..."
"He began the tradition of going beyond the First Spouse of the head of government. There was the First Daughter, the First Samdhi, the First Cousin, the First..."
"Yeah, I get it and in contrast, The Khan has been unable to refer to his Third Wife as Mrs Khan, I mean she is still referred to as Bushra peerni or Pinki Peerni, or Bushra Maneka, I mean really!"
"Hmm, so going back to Shahbaz Sharif the cat, Umar may be wise to consider another cat proverb: I gave an order to a cat, and the cat gave it to its tail."
"Good one, another is if you want to know the character of a man, find out what his cat thinks of him."
"I don't think Umer would want to know what Shahbaz Sharif really thinks of him."
