Via my cousin-in-law’s twitter feed, I came across an awesome story of misunderstanding, stupidity, revenge and true love made possible only by the magic of technology.
Update: A helpful comment on the above story tells me that the innocent word in question “s?k???nca” literally means “in a squeeze”. The word reminds me of the Hindi word “shikhanja” which has a similar meaning. It is entirely possible that Hindi borrowed the word from Turkish. In that case, our failure to borrow the other word represents a huge missed opportunity to tackle our population problem.
True love ?
In the Hindi film version of the story, the man commits suicide because in his heart he still loved her. That is my version and I shall stick to it.
