Sex and the City of Bombay

The Sex and the City of Bombay movie with Charlotte, Samantha, Miranda, and our protagonist, Kitty from Breach Candy:

Mr. Big: Honey, the wedding is already 200 people!

Kitty: I know, yaar. We’d better invite all my batchmates — less than 500 will just be too embarrassing.

· · · · ·

[The ivory Vivienne Westwood dress is unwrapped. People ooh and aah.]

Kitty: Beautiful dress… for a widow.

· · · · ·

[The couple walks around a Malabar Hill penthouse for sale.]

Kitty: How much is it?

Mr. Big: I got it.

Kitty: No really, how much is it? You know, last week Maureen Wadia paid 20 crore for a place in this very same building…

[They open the tiny master closet.]

Mr. Big: I’ll build you a better closet.

Kitty: Don’t be silly, log kya kehenge? I’ll call Muniz Contractor.

· · · · ·

Kitty: Charlotte, your husband said you’ve stopped running.

Charlotte: Yes, I’m worried something might happen to the baby.

Kitty: Correct! I don’t lift a finger in my house and I’m not even pregnant.

· · · · ·

[Turbaned cab driver eavesdrops on the girls’ conversation.]

Kitty: Chalo chalo, let’s talk at the restaurant. There’s something not right about this fellow — who wears a pagri without a beard?

· · · · ·

[Two and a half hours into the movie…]

Audience member 1: I can’t believe how long this stupid movie is.

Audience member 2: Me too! I paid 300 bucks for my Red Lounge seats, it should be at least three hours.

    DEAD.

    I wish you’d made the S&TC movie– your version was far better and more entertaining. -oh wait, you missed the delhi-belly diarrhea jokes to parallel the Mexico jokes. sigh.

    brilliant. that scene at the malabar hill pad reminds me of a short story from love and longing in bombay (except much more hilarious). i hope there are more installments, manish - i read this on my way to work and laughed out loud at each part - but the weird stares were totally worth it ;)

    I would be happy to lend my Mumbai girl accent to an audio recording of this filim. Free of charge of course! ;)
