Kya aap shauch karte haiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiin? (To be sung in the Close-up ad syle)

He walked into my life exactly two weeks back. And since then, life has just not been the same.
Three days a week, I get up at 5 am just so I can meet him at 6. He's my yoga teacher.
And his idea of greeting us each morning is by asking us if we have done shauch (translated it means- have you shat?)
Understandably no one raises his or her hands on being asked who all haven't shat. He doesn't buy that. "Dekhiye aap sharmaiye mat. Pani pijiye aur peeche rest room hai, wahan jaake rest kar ke aayie." That, of course, is the best excuse for many of the guys to just get up and leave the session and turn up at the end, claiming to have utilised all the intervening time to try shauching.
It doesn't stop at that. Towards the end of the session, he makes us do shavaasan, which ensures that most of us sleep-deprived people just doze off. So that when he asks us to get up, half of us are snoring away. At which point he will walk up to people and say, "Oh Devdas utho bhaiya utho."
One fine day, he decided to undertake the responsibility of making all of us clear all the snot out of our systems. For this express purpose, he told us to purchase a khukki-wala lauta- a container with a spout. The deal for the lautas was brokered by him and he got us a price of Rs 30 for each lauta. No, I don't know how much his commission was. Students, of course, have their own style of dealing with him. Two weeks later, no one's yet paid for the lautas.
