"Working in a hospital is a good way to learn a couple of geography lessons. If a daakter (Hindi for doctor) asks for a jesta x-ray, he’s from Tamil Nadu; a chaste x-ray would make him a Maharashtrian; a chest eggs-ray means he’s a Keralite; and a chest ekkas-ray means he’s from Delhi or beyond. The North-East has its own version: the chess-ess-ray. And if he axes for the x-ray, he’s a Goan Catholic. Eenjuctions and madiseens are what finally kewer (cure) the patients."
