Satire: Shahrukh - Gambhir phone conversation

Gautam Gambhir: Hello, Shah Rukh.

Shah Rukh Khan: Kya yaar, are we going to win a game or what?

Gambhir: Want me to set up a conference call with N Srinivasan’s astrologer, Shah Rukh? Only he will be able to give an answer for that.

SRK: It’s not a joke Gauti. I’ve invested so much of time, love and money on KKR. It hurts to see such performances.

Gambhir: There’s no Orange Cap in CLT20, so Kallis isn’t excited. Gayle has completely dented Narine’s confidence in the nets during the World T20. Lee is more concerned about his hair fall. Though I’m the captain here, at the back of my mind, I know that I can never be the captain of Team India, thanks to Kohli. Manoj Tiwary still can’t believe he is in the playing XI, he always runs towards the drinks crate before the start of the match. So, in this situation, how would the team perform well?

SRK: Damn. That awkward moment when you curse yourself for not picking Dada and Gayle in the auctions.

Gambhir: Dada? He’s almost as old as you, Shah Rukh. Hehehe!

SRK: Also twice as smart as you. Anyway, which player would you like to see in our team for the next IPL? Let’s see if we can get them to our team.

Gambhir: The team is alright. The problem is with the cheerleaders. Have you seen them? They take all the excitement away. Look at Mallya, maybe we can do something better there.

SRK: Ok. Anyway, Ek! ek game hai tere paas. Is game ko tujse koi nahi cheen saktha. Koi nahi…

Gambhir: Chup be. I’ve seen Chak De.

SRK: Arrogance is good for people like Kohli who perform. Not for someone like you. Even Ashwin is batting better than you these days.

Gambhir: Yeah, just like how Emraan Hashmi acts better than you these days.

SRK: Alright, we both are losers. Let’s make it large. *Whispers*: I am the King.

Gambhir: Let’s try out some superstitions. Manoj Tiwary ko 12th man bana dete hai.

SRK: *whispers* Aur tuu pehle ‘man’ bann.

Gambhir: What?

SRK: Nothing, nothing. Pass my love to the team. Good night.

Gambhir: Sigh! Bye.
