Karwa Chauth of a 5 year old

Bubu is all of 5. Totally cute, adorable and very innocent for a Mumbai boy. His passions are bikes and food. When my husband went to buy his Harley, Bubu looked dazed seeing the prized bikes, and shouted, "Ata Majha Satakli", the famous Ajay Devgn dialogue. 

A total filmy, Bubu apes his idol, Akshay Kumar and has named himself Khiladi Bhaiyya. You should see him do cartwheels with such aplomb. And like a true Khiladi, he can woo girls. Here we caught him kissing his cousin, my daughter, when they were 2 years old. 

But above all this, is Bubu's love for
food. 
And seeing his specy face with that gooey look, everyone pampers him with chocolate, ice cream, burgers. Now he is down with measles, and as prescribed by the doctor, he is on bland vegetarian food. While the world is feasting away on sweets and laddoos due to the festive season, his query after 5 such days, "Mama, when will your Karwa Chauth get over ?"


For Bubu, eating bland fare is as good as keeping a fast. So till he recovers, it's Karwa Chauth in his house.
