Kind Sardar
Talking about those days when there were no mosquito repellents and we had to spend sleepless nights. Sardarji was also experiencing the same every time he tries to sleep, one mosquito comes and disturbs his sleep with a sound "guooonn, guooonn." He gets very irritated. He tries to cover his ear but the problem remains persistent.
Ultimately he gets up and catches the mosquito in his hand.
He is very kind and not going for the blood shed still wanted to take revenge.
Happy as he is now starts singing a lullaby and says "so ja machchar, bete so ja (Goto sleep, O dear mosquito, goto sleep)". After some time he finds the mosquito falling in to deep sleep in his hands. So he goes near it and says "Guoooonnnnn, guoooonnnnn."


Sardarji has a fall..
Once a Sardar falls from the 2nd floor of a building and as he hits the ground a crowd gathers around him and they ask him "Sardar ji what happened" and the Sardar says "How should I know even I just came"

Santa loses money...
Man: Why are you so upset?
Santa Singh: While coming back from work today I noticed two five hundred Rupee notes on the floor of the bus. Well, I quickly reached out to pick them up. Another man had noticed them too at the same time and I had to equally share the money with him.
Man: That's alright, at least you got one five hundred note.
Santa Singh: Yes, I did. But when I got home I realised that the two notes I had found had actually fallen out of my own pocket!

Surd in a Big city

Santa Singh was visiting the big city for the first time. He checks in at the Hotel, and the bellboy takes his bags.

He follows the boy, and as the door closes, he looks around and shakes his fist at him. 'Young man, I may be from the village and unfamiliar with the city, but that don't mean I'm stupid! I paid good money, and this room will not do at all! It is too small, and without proper ventilation! Why there's not even a bed!'

The bellboy looks at Santa Singh and says, 'Sir, this isn't your room, it's the Elevator!'


Surd and Computers

This Surd kept staring at his computer screen for quite a while. To break the long pause another guy comes to him and asks, 'Why are you simply staring at it... why don't you do start working?' Sardarji replies, 'Take a look at the Screen...'. The other guy looks and there displayed is the message 'Press any key to continue'.
The man asked 'So what?'
The Sardarji replies, 'Look, this damn keyboard does not have the 'Any' key!...How do I continue now...'

Sardarji at Clocktower.
Sardarji is in Delhi. He is walking on a street which has a Clock Tower when someone asks him if he wants to buy the clock on the Tower.

Sardarji says "Yes".

"Give me a thousand rupees and I'll go get a ladder."

The man took the thousand and disappeared. Having waited for several hours the Sardarji figured he was taken for a ride.

On the next day the Sardarji is again walking along the same street and the same man asks him to buy the clock. "Give me a thousand rupees and I'll go get a ladder." The Sardarji gives him the thousand and says "I am not a fool. This time, you wait and I'll go get a ladder."


Lazy Employee
The owner of a large factory decided to make a surprise visit and check up on his staff. Walking through the plant, he noticed a young man leaning lazily against a post.
"Just how much are you being paid a week?" said the owner angrily.
"Three hundred bucks," replied the young man.
Taking out a fold of bills from his wallet, the owner counted out $300, slapped the money into the boy's hands, and said "Here's a week's pay -- now get out and don't come back!"
Turning to one of the supervisors, he said "How long has that lazy bum been working here anyway?"
"He doesn't work here," said the supervisor. "He was just here to deliver a pizza!!!"
