10 Sophisticated Insults By Maya Sarabhai You Need To Add To The Burn Dictionary

We’ve binged so hard on Sarabhai Vs Sarabhai, that by now, the dialogues and situations and mannerisms have seeped into our daily lives quite smoothly. And, without even realising, we’ve taken pages out of their diary and added it in our lives. Be it Rosesh’s quirk, Sahil’s fix, Indravadhan’s sarcasm, Monisha’s middle-classism or Maya Sarabhai’s sophistication. We have imbibed it all. But, if you personally ask me, who out of these was the most impressionable upon me when I was a teen? Then, I would pick Maya Sarabhai, hands own.

Those stylish blouses, fluent vocab, sassiness and sophisticated burns, one can learn so much from Maya. So, what are you waiting for? Add these sophisticated insults to your burn dictionary. Replace the name with Monisha and voila, hand out insults, Maya style.

1. This is the ultimate one. I still use it. #NotKidding

“Monisha Beta, yeh haila toh theek tha, but this haichi is categorically middle-class.”

 

2. Manners, Monisha!

“Jab tum kabhi kabhi ubaasi leti ho na bina mooh dhake, toh Ajanta-Ellora caves ki yaad aati hai.”

 

3. The burn even aloe vera won’t soothe.

“Monisha bete, please masala dosa khaane se pehle wo toilet saaf kiya hua haath dho lena.”

 

4. When things got really hot.

“Monisha toh geeli baniyaane bhi microwave mein sukhati hain.”

 

5. When there’s a level below middle class!

“Monisha bete, this kameena haramzada is just so pedestrian.”

 

6. Because classiness is the key.

“Assault kiya Monisha, yeh dhoya is totally sadakchhaanp.”

 

7. Someone’s got burnt!

“Congratulations Monisha! Champagne khole ya jaljeera se kaam chalega?”

 

8. Dayam, that’s brutal!

“Kisi carpentry mein fail hui mistry ki banayi hui cheez ko antique kehna matlab Monisha ko sophisticated kehne barabaar hai.”

 

9. That can go personal but then again, the insult is umm…let it be!

“Monisha, tumhare to chawal bhi middle-class hain.”

 

10. This burn works. Woofiiee!

“Monisha ke standards are going to the dogs, that too stray dogs.”

 

And, when they seem to get upset, just use this standard line!

“Don’t mind beta, main tumhari burai nahi kar rahi hoon, I was just joking.”

Which one are you using, next? Let us know!
