Forceps, Biceps and a Muscular Chest..!
A tale oft repeated and picture often projected is of bare-chested Ganguly running around at Lords. Most Indians are proud of picture, most Britons aren’t and there’s no doubt it’s popular for the number of times its picked from ageing files and flashed around.
Bollywood hunk Salman Khan is the latest to have commented on it: Says Khan, “Come on Sourav, you must have something to show when you take off your shirt!” Now we all know the handsome Khan, he loves pulling off upper wear and inner wear to flex chest muscle for all the world to see.
“See my biceps!”
“Ah!” say his admirers.
“My triceps!”
“Ah!” swoon same admirers.
“My forceps!”
“What?” asks his gynac, “Don’t talk about forceps! They’ll think it explains a lot about you!”
“Ooops!” says the Khan, biceps and triceps using forceps hold on wayward tongue.
Now this be all my imagination at play; Mr Khan’s muscle do not I am sure speak out when he pulls T shirt off, but me same imagination sees the Khan running up one day to the Pearly gates, like all of us will, with or without our shirts, though Mr Khan he doeth run with bare muscle bulging for all to see.
The man at the pearly gate he don’t look up at the Khan and Bollywood heartthrob he be teeny weeny bit upset, not too much though, because it be a man at the Pearly gate and not woman, to swoon when he see Khan chest.
“Good morning sir!”
“Ah good morning Mr Khan, one moment while I complete these records!”
Khan he don’t stop running, oh no he don’t, he continues in same sport, called spot jogging by sportsmen down below. Little beads of sweat coming to rest on famous chest.
“Ah now Mr Khan what happened to your shirt?”
“I pulled it off!”
“And whatever made you do that Mr Khan?”
“See my biceps, my triceps, and also..”
“Yes Mr Khan?”
“Isn’t it a better chest than Souravs?”
“I’m sure it is Mr Khan, I’m sure it is! But you better put your shirt on!”
“You don’t want to see my chest?”
“Ah Mr Khan, over here we look deeper, just a wee bit beneath your chest, and what lies there is what be getting you past these gates! Now let me see oh dear its going to be difficult, very difficult let me get my glasses, those….”
“Triceps and Biceps? Too muscular?”
“They make it difficult for me to see what’s beneath, Oh Mr Khan I’m afraid I’ll have to get a torch, there’s not much I can see in there …Tut, tut if you’d only put on your shirt all those years..!”
