Social media has become a significant platform for people to play out humorous scenarios or jokes with the public. Many such videos gain substantial attention online, quickly going viral among internet users. A recent example is a video shared on social media, where a man cleverly delivers a “lame joke” to a group of girls.
The short video was posted on Instagram by user @shakeb_javed, who appears to visit different places and try out his jokes with random strangers. This particular video, seemingly shot at Connaught Place in Delhi, features him attempting a joke about a bald woman. To fully grasp the humour, an understanding of Hindi is essential.
The clip begins with three girls walking together, when the man, dressed in a white shirt, suddenly stops them and asks a peculiar question. He says, “Ek second, ek second, aapko pata hai kisi auto mein agar ganji ladki baithi ho, toh usse kya bolenge? (One second, one second, do you know what a bald girl sitting in an auto is called?)” One of the girls responds, “Kya? (What?)” The man replies, “Automatically.” The group bursts into laughter at the punchline. The caption on the post fittingly reads, “Lame joke part – 27.”
To explain the joke, as previously mentioned, understanding Hindi is necessary. The word “automatically” phonetically resembles “Auto mein takli,” which translates to “a bald girl in an auto.” By breaking down the word, it creates the punchline that leads to the joke’s success.
The video received a range of reactions from netizens in the comment section. Some were amused, while others were less impressed. One user asked, “Hasna tha kya? (Were we supposed to laugh?)” Another commented, “Bohot khatarnak aadmi hai bhai (This man is very dangerous, brother).” A third user claimed, “I can bet this video is scripted.” The post has garnered over 2.8 million likes and more than 94 million views.
