Sagar Pillai admitted his wife in the hospital for a surgery and waited impatiently outside. He saw the doctor come out of the operation theater, take a hammer and go back in. Almost immediately, he saw him come out again, take a screw driver and go back in. The third time the doctor came out and Sagar couldn't take it anymore. He begged him, "Doctor, what are you doing to my wife? Is it this serious?" The Doctor replied with a puzzled look, "But...we are still trying to open my medical kit."

Latur Singh and Durg Chander were discussing the latter's handwriting. Latur said, "But Durg, you have to seriously improve your writing for people to be able to decipher it."
