Sehwag Ki Ma



Sehwag ki Ma is one of those people you knows about, hell, one of those people everyone knows about, but no one really knows. She has, thanks to Reliance India become a cult icon, equivalent to Uncle Sam, or Doctor Peppers. Except she, unlike the above two, exists.

Now, I was discusing this today. Just imagine if Mrs. Sehwag were to enter politics, and campaign as an independant against Sahib Singh Verma in outer Delhi, hell any consituency in Delhi. She would never have to give her name. Her entire campaign would be as Sehwag Ki Ma, not even as Mother of Sehwag, or Mrs. Sehwag, or Amma Sehwag, but specifically, and only Sehwag Ki Ma.

She'd sweep it. You know why? Cos everyone knows her. You can't escape her. She's entered the national psyche, and won't leave.

I can imagine the ads already. Atal Bihari in an Inpo-Pak Conference.
Phone rings. Jaitley picks it up. "Sehwag ki ma?"
Ataaaaaaaaal! Message for you! Kar le Pakistan muthhi mein.

And thus ended the Indo Pak conflict.

Its possible, just give peace a chance.
