Tch… tch… you look so pretty but why are you on a wheelchair?

So I am on a #wheelchair and I am already so tired of sitting… oh my poor bum… I know you are hurting but people around are bigger bums!! Their constant sympathetic looks and countess “tches” are real pain in the ass!

Tch… tch… you look so pretty but why are you on a wheelchair?

What does me being pretty has to do with a wheelchair? Is there any board that pretty people shouldn’t be on a wheelchair! How are you judging that I am pretty anyway? I might look pretty on the outside but dark on the inside?

Aao kabhi haveli pe and hum bhi dark kisse sunayenge! But wait, let’s hear about it another time (let me focus on this first).

Apart from the customary “you are so beautiful but you are on a wheelchair” comment. Here are some amazing things I get to here because I’m on a wheelchair –

• 
  

• Oh so you are on a wheelchair and you are going out, are you going to a hospital?

• Oh so you go out? But why?

• Random desh bakth at theatre: Hey you! Desh drohi! How shameless are you? Don’t you know that you have to stand up during the National Anthem?!

• Why are you spending so much on shoes? Your legs don’t work anyway!

• Hey, your sister has sent cosmetics? Why do you need them anyway.

• Wow, you actually have a boyfriend and he is normal? He must be a great guy (duh! I must me great that he looks beyond the wheelchair)

• Hey, you are a bechari, you are on wheelchair so you can’t have opinions.

• Oh, so are you paralysed?

• Is it polio?

• Are you twins?

• You must have done something wrong and karma is punishing you!

• You work? You earn? How?

Strrranger: Aiyo papam

Me in my head: No papam business please. I have a life and I may actually be enjoying it.

Of all these questions, there’s one comment/question that makes me sick!

OH YOU’RE SO FAT! WHAT ARE YOU EATING?

Me: Uploads a picture.

Random person: Hey, you have become so fat (and never cares to reply again)

Here is a recent incident for you dear readers

I recently met a star music director and posted the pictures on Whatsapp, and people thought it was an invitation to call me fat :P. The only person who actually cared to find out what happened was Manasa – TikTok famous.

Me: Dude, I was lean when you first saw me and I am chubby now and I am not over weight! But I still have a reason – My level of activity is zero so all the food I eat turns into fat, but did you ever see how much I eat? Nah! Plus, how will you explain your bulge? You have been this fat forever. So the joke is on you!

But hey, the story doesn’t end here! There were times when people would sympathise with me for being lean…

Tch… tch… tch… haye kitne patli ho, khati nhi ho kya? (you are so lean, don’t you eat?)

PS: This is how I reply in my head! And, well its not directed to people who actually try to understand what happened.

Fat, lean, fair, dark, studious, jobless, everybody gets to hear something or the other. What's more amusing is that the people who claim to be victims of such social judging, turn judges at every opportunity :P

But hey, the story doesn’t end here! There were times when people would sympathize with me for being lean…

This is amazing stuff and I might make a video of it, unless someone decided to copy it!! So here is to all the people who ask me so many questions! I am trying to find answers about myself and my questions are way above gossip! So I have zero answers!
