Kaun Banega Crorepati, Crorepati Nahi Khakhpati? The Loafer As An Announcer

Rating: 5.0


Kaun banega crorepati,
Who will be a millionaire,
A millionaire not, billionaire
Without having the money
In the purse
Or at home
Freely, without the cost,
Without paying for?

I with the computer appliances
On the dais
With the inmates
Behaving like a boss,
Posing like a media baron or manager
Or executive
Or company director,
Putting questions before,
A flurry of,
Asking and smiling
Like a villain, a counsellor,
A consultant
And drawing the lottery
Without even the basics of computer and its application.

A quizz master I quizzing
And the aspiring moneyless participants
Dreaming of being millionaires and billionaires,
I mean tycoons,
Failing the real ones,
Some without the money into their pockets
Turning into,
Some returning home empty-handed
After being knocked down
Or dashed to the ground,
Some idle-sitters and roamers licking the dust,
Some loafers
Like the director himself
Turning into a hero.

A loafer I loafing about myself and life,
A loafer asking a loafer
To answer
Which I too know ti not,
He too not,
Just the luck favours
And he turns into a millionaire
Or a billionaire,
Oh, this lottery,
This lottery of life,
God knows on whom will
Lady Luck smile,
But here the things int the hands
Of the director saheb
With a little bit of beards on the chin
to be called
With the French-cut beards,
Just a bi8t on the chin
To make him handsome,
Something as director-like, media-manager-like
Or a personality like that of a boss
You see, I see.
