Excerpt from F?@k Knows
Disclaimer:
Any resemblance to persons living or dead is totally intentional. For those dead, I’m sure it won’t be a problem, for obvious reasons. For those living, please don’t mind that I have used your real name and, in one case, your phone number (People really won’t believe I did all this shit! Back me up, Asif!).
Everything that I have written about is totally true and absolutely happened. Except for the story about my Uncle in Shamli. And, of course, the story about Ganesha. I made those up. And I may have based the story about Ayjaz on an old folktale I heard somewhere. But, other than that, everything is true and accurate. I swear on my Uncle in Shamli.
“Couldn’t stop laughing as I read the 1st few pages of F?@K Knows, autobiography of @ShailendraS7 masquerading as a life guide. Brilliant shit!” Tweet from Pritish Nandy.
