Opening Scene:
Nagpur Railway Station. Hail storm coupled with gale storm.
Power failure at the station. Just below the foot overbridge on Platform No.2,
a middle class type women, bellowing in pain, obviously pregnant. Three women
Samaritans tie a saree around the grills and assist the delivery while chanting
“Aal izz well”. And “whoaaaaa” first cry of the baby. In an instant later a cry
from the pregnant women and “whoaaaa” another first cry of another baby. Just
as the Samaritans think there is no more stock left, “whoaaaaaa” yet another
first cry of yet another baby. Triplets as they are called or as we put it more
poetically in India ‘If 2-in-1 is Twins, 3-in-1 is Thrins’. As the lightning
flashes, we see the three babies Milky white, Wheatish and Pitch Black in complexion
respectively. Dr.Chaddha’s over enthusiasm or oversight while drunk we don’t
know but Vicky, Micky and Chikky Donor have had their desired impact. The three
childless Samaritans decide to adopt a baby each as their biological mother had
just done an expected Heavenwards Ho! Arguments break out among the Samaritans
as to who will get which baby as everyone wants Vicky’s gora-gora
fair n lovely milky white baby and there are no takers for Micky’s and Chikky’s
progenies. A prolonged verbal jujitsu later a compromise is worked out. A session
of Inki Pinki Ponky ensures just distribution of spoils. Mrs.Jessica D’Souza takes
her baby, christened Joseph and boards the G T Express to New Delhi. Begum
Juveria Ahmed collects her baby named Jani and boards the Rajdhani Express to
Kolkata. Tmt.
Janaki Seetharaman picks up her bundle of joy branded Jayashankar and settles
down in the First AC cabin of TamilNadu Express enroute to Chennai.
