    HI ILites

    Hindi poet "Nirala" was well known for his eccentric nature.one of his very famous poem is "Woh todati Pathaar"

    One day a british lady came visiting to him for interview. She started speaking in Hindi, to which Niralaji replied in English. Little surprised, she started speaking in English and as soon as she started speaking in English. Niralaji switched over to Hindi. This went on for a while.Whenever she spoke in English, Niralaji would speak in Hindi and whenever she spoke in Hindi, Niralaji spoke in English

    She could not take it any more and asked him the reason for his behaviour.Niralaji coolly siad "Dear lady when you respect my national language, I respect yours and when you respect your mother tongue , I respect mine:cool2:

    So, dear friends if you have come across such eccentric person or behaviour share it .

    Looking forward to your response
