Poor Tara, her daughter, Beenish, she’s having such problems with her baby’s name kay don’t even ask. So Beenish is married into Complete Concrete. They live in a big house with three stories called Mashallah Mansion. But family is conservative type and the three sons they live in the three floors above the father, Daddy Ji, who holds the purse stings. All the sons work for Daddy Ji who hasn’t yet put property in anyone’s name so you can imagine how much of love and obedience everyone shows to Daddy Ji. And they’ll have to carry on loving and obeying because Daddy Ji is hail and hatty and shows no sign of going anywhere.
Anyways now Beenish has had a baby girl who she wanted give fashiony type name like Amaanah (vaisay tau she wanted to call her Meghan but her husband said Daddy Ji won’t like. Daddy Ji also hasn’t liked that she hasn’t had a boy, by the way.) Anyways Daddy Ji came to second floor (Beenish’s husband is second son na) and brought a present – ten ten tola gold bricks – and said:
‘For Zareena’. ‘Who’s Zareena?’ asked Beenish. ‘My granddaughter,’ he said, ‘named after my mother’. Beenish bechari, immediately she went inside depression. So Tara said to us, ‘Bhai what do you all suggest? Zareena is such an olden times ka naam. But going against Daddy Ji...’ ‘Haan,’ said Sunny. ‘My son named his son Zidane after that footballer. So cool, honestly. And his sister is Petra’. So Baby suggested kay if she can’t change name, why she doesn’t change spelling so name becomes modern and trendy. ‘Meaning?’ asked Tara.
‘My cousins’ sister-in-law’s daughter she was called Urooj, but she’s become Au Rouge. So your granddaughter could also become Xarina. So much spohisty than Zareena, no?’ ‘No, no, better,’ said Sunny, ‘is you make her Tsarina. Like Russian Empress used to be called. And when inshallah Tsarina has brother, by which time Daddy Ji will hopefully be gone, you can name him Tsar. Nice, no?’
