Oh Lord, my dear Akka, what a tongue twister!

It reminds me of one of those parlour games when one is shown a tray full of odd, disconnected objects, and the players have to always remember one more object than the competitor to their left. I was always a dud at those kinds of games, and I would never have been able to make the cut here, like a slow runner in a musical chairs game!

You, Akka, are nothing less than a walking, talking, writing encyclopaedia of nursery rhymes and a of a whole lot else. 👏No one would be able to list out all your hunars, especially in the proper order!

This is the house that Jack built
This is the malt
that lay in the house that Jack built
This is the rat that ate the malt
that lay in the house that Jack built
This is the cat that chased the rat
that ate the malt
that lay in the house that Jack built
This is the dog that worried the cat
that chased the rat that ate the malt
that lay in the house that Jack built
This is the cow with the crumpled horn
that tossed the dog that worried the cat
that chased the rat that ate the malt
that lay in the house that Jack built.

My Version:

Now, Akka these two posts clearly have to be taken together, so I am pasting the second one too here.
They are both full of the same sense of simple, unaffected fun, and your 5 year old is, as always, a treat.

As I have told you before, I adore her charming and extremely funny malapropisms, so much so that I see them even when they are not there at all! Here, I was very pleased to see, they are present in abundance, and I luxuriated in them. Also in some unexpected, quaint words of worldly wisdom from our mistress of ceremonies.

Plus here Bindu too is side-splitting at times, all the more so because she has no idea of that!

I am as usual highlighting my favourite passages in blue. Very nice going, Akka!👏

Baby Sarasa's second round of Jalal-Jodha's wedding plans with Shagun and Bindu Akkas.

(Baby Sarasa is very busy now a days. On the one hand she is committed to Ektha Kapoor to do the screen play for her serial "Yaraana", and on the other , her much awaited Jala-Jodha's wedding is round the corner..She has to plan for the wedding. She had broadly discussed earlier with Shagun Akka and Bindu akka as to how it should be conducted, but the details have to be worked out..With her announcement of quitting the IF, which was published in the JA Times , she gets a little breathing time by skipping the writing of the fan fiction..
Baby is waiting for Shagun Akka who has returned today after enjoying a holiday..)

Shagun akka comes...

Baby: Hi Akka..I am just waiting for you..We should plan Jalal Uncle and Jodha Aunty's wedding.. It's only 50 days more..
Shagun: Yes Darling.. we have decided to celebrate it like Sita- Rama 's wedding..Remember?***
Baby: Yes Akka...I watched Siya ke Ram yesterday, when Ram talks to Sita's daddy after he broke the bow. We can also do like that.. Do you know grandma said that Shyamala Aunty wrote that she enjoyed the scene very much ..
Shagun: Yes...I also read that.. She said that it was a novel interpretation,... that is a new understanding.. Like that our Jalal can ask Jodha if she is willing to marry him..Suppose she says no?..
Baby: Why 'no'? She will say 'yes'!.. Our Jalal will be like Ram, and Sita won't say no..

(Bindu comes there)

Bindu: Hi Chellis! What's going on?
Baby: We are talking about Jalal- Jodha wedding akka... How to do it like Rama-Sita wedding...
Bindu: One very important thing we forgot Shagun...Who will act like Jalal aka Ram and who will do the role of Jodha i.e., Sita?...
Shagun: Yes di, I was also thinking about it...
Bindu: Why don't you and Baby will be Jalal and Jodha?..
Shagun: Oh, God! can I do that?..
Baby: Shagun akka.. that'll be fun.. You'll be Jalal Uncle and I will be Jodha aunty.. But we will speak like Ram and Sita in Siya ke Ram..It is easy..Ram always keeps smiling..not talking much..that you can do..you can simply hold the doll and keep smiling...

Note the unintended put down of poor Shagun aka Jalal-Ram!😉

Shagun: Then who will do the saalis?
Bindu: We will find somebody from our Akdha Admirers' Association..
Baby: Bindu akka, remember, you are Jodha aunty's mom. You should cry whenever you are asked to cry...
Shagun: Okay di, I'll then write the script...

( Grandma comes there all excited..)
G'ma: Do you know children? ... Zee TV just called.. The want to take a video of the full wedding event to be telecast in their channel.. They want to do it as a promotion for their JA re-run show..

Bindu, Shagun and Baby: Aye...Yippee...!!

(*** Read the post, "Baby Sarasa plans the wedding of Jalal and Jodha with Shagun akka and Bindu akka." on P179 to know more about the wedding plans..)

Karkuzhali.😆😉

Baby Sarasa, Bindu akka and Shagun akka have a final round of discussion about J&J wedding

(Baby Sarasa is waiting for Shagun akka and Bindu akka. They have promised her to finalise the arrangements of the forthcoming wedding of Jalal and Jodha dolls.)

(Bindu and Shagun are coming with their hands full of decorative materials.)

Bindu: Hi Baby!..seems you are all ready for the final discussion...?
Shagun: Baby dear! here's a good news.. Bindu di said that she is free from next week so that we can rehearse the wedding events..
Baby S: Okay Akka..Now what should I do? Remember I am Jodha , i.e., Sita...and Shagun akka, you are Jalal Ram ..Now, tell me Bindu akka, what should I say..Shall I say, "Hey Ram, if you want to marry me, break the bow!?"🤣
Bindu: No..no.. Baby darling, Sita didn't say like that.. Shagun...you are the script writer and director.. give us instructions..
Bindu: Okay.. now we will have the baraat first..🤣
Baby: What is it Akka? Is Bharat from Ramayana also coming?
Shagun: No baby.. it is a procession in which the boy comes to the marriage place.
Here, we have to bring Jalal doll in a procession.
Baby: Oh I know.. I saw it in the JA serial..And the cry mum of Jodha doll will put tilak on Jalal's face..
Shagun: Yes.. Bindu di is the mummy..
Baby: Yes I know.. Shagun akka.. did you tell her when she should cry during the wedding?
Bindu: Don't worry dear.. Shagun already told me and I bought a bottle of glycerine..
Baby: What is it Bindu akka? Show me?
Shagun: It is like watery syrup and if you put a few drops in your eyes, it will irritate your eyes and your eyes will automatically shed tears... But be careful Baby, you shouldn't try it on your eyes...
Baby: Boy!... ...Is that how they cry in TV serials?I thought that somebody had to beat them for them to cry. I thought Ekta aunty beat Jalal uncle nicely, and that's why he cried very much when Jodha akka was shown dying...
Bindu: Now the next is the conditions put forth by the King Jhanak to the princes for accepting the hands of Sita, i.e., Jodha..
Baby: Bindu akka, we don't have many princes.. we have only one king , that is JalalRam..
Shagun: Okay then.. We will make Jodha's daddy ask Jalal to lift the bow and aim an arrow during the wedding...I bought a big bow from the toy shop.But Bindu di, there were also very attractive toy guns in their display...I was about to buy one of them..
Bindu: Good idea.. We could have had a shooting competition...

Yes, and the blatant anachronism be damned! They will out-Ekta Ekta at this rate!😉

Baby:I don't understand Bindu akka.. What are we going to ask JalalRam to do? Shooting?
Shagun: Okay Di, let us plan seriously.. King Jhanak will ask Jalal to lift the Shiva Dhanush and he will lift it and during the process will break the bow..

Everyone is happy, particularly, Jodha ..but Jalal will say, "I am an honest Shahenshah and because I have not fulfilled the condition of aiming arrow with the bow, I am not eligible to marry Jodha..."

Baby: Oh.no..what will Jodha akka do then? What will all the persons who came for the wedding do? Will they go back home?

Shagun:.. No..no.. the wedding will happen.. I have given a dialogue to Jodha which will make Jalal look at her with surprise..She will say that it was she who ordered the bow to be made a little bent, so that it would be easy for him to lift and aim the arrow and ..and...marry me ... How is the suspense? Do you like it?

Bindu: That's good.. In this way we can show that our Jodha is not like Ekta madam's Jodha.. but is happy to marry Jalal.

Baby: So we need not also copy Siya ke Ram and make our Jalal ask Jodha if she likes to marry him..

Bindu: And Shagun, grandma said that the Zee TV people had promised to meet all the expenses and also wanted to arrange a big wedding feast ...

Shagun: So, Baby and Bindu di, we will meet next time to do the rehearsal for the wedding...

Baby: Will there be rehearsal for the lunch also Shagun Akka? 🤣

Kalyana samayal saatham, kaaykarikalum pramaatham.. Ithu Zee TV prasadam, Ithuve enakku podhum!!!

Akka, I can't do any more today. Be good and translate this for Shagun and the rest, will you? Thanks a lot!
Shagun: 😕

Thank you Shyamala for your comments..
I used to love this Rhyme from my young days..especially the beat..
I have not heard about the game which you have referred to, but I know a somewhat similar game called"Memory game" or "Observation test" And I am also a slow runner like you in musical chair games!
Please Shyamala, do not praise too much about my"hunars". I don't know how to respond!
Saraswathi akka.

I don't know what to say and write Shyamala!
A big,big "THANK YOU" for your (running) comment(ary)s for Baby's posts!
When we reported for duty after a spell of leave(while in service) we used to clear a lot of arrears accumulated during our absence. You are doing this now..Thanks to you.Hats off to you for locating Baby's posts in the different threads..Even I am not able to do that. I was searching for Baby Sarasa's 'review of Rajat's reappearance in Naagin' this whole afternoon, but couldn't locate it yet.
Yours

Saraswathi Akka.
