"Rajesh Khanna is dead."
"Yes that was the first news of the day all day on Wednesday."
"Not fair - I mean to be stumped by an actor who isn't even from this country."
"Excuse me, but Indian actors and actresses are more loved in this country than our own, our people - irrespective of socio-economic group they may belong to - all watch Hindi films and enjoy them."
"Yes, Hindi films are a great income equalizer in this country."
"Hindi films and cricket!"
"What about tennis - Aisamul Haq also got a lot of publicity lately."
"Indeed, as did his separation or divorce or whatever, but be that as it may who did you mean when you said he got stumped by the death of Rajesh Khanna which wasn't all that untimely if you know what I mean."
"Death is final and one has to pay homage but the timing was kinda not appropriate for our politicians. Nawaz Sharif's press conference got delegated to second place..."
"Yes, and there was no reference to Prime Minister Raja Pervez Ashraf's second foreign tour - this time to Afghanistan."
"I think this is really his first tour - the first one was to Saudi Arabia for umra which is traditional for our newly elected prime ministers, see its good to seek God's assistance before undertaking such tremendous responsibility."
"They go after they are elected, not before."
"In this country you never know what will happen till it happens, please do recall what happened before Raja was elected."
"I do recall he was not the first choice but you do know that a runner up even in beauty pageants does win on occasion."
"That's true anyway I thought our prime ministers go after they are elected because then the government pays for the umra."
"Given that they seek God's forgiveness and go in humility do you resent this expense?"
"No, except that the humility is time-bound."
"Hey, life is time-bound, so why not humility."
"I stand corrected."
