This is the wackiest story I have come across - and this too, in the month of Ramadan. I don’t even know where to start - because in this month of abstinence, it is gunaah for me to say anything even remotely controversial. but I suppose that I must remain authentic to my true nature, because that is how my creator has made me.
So your murga has gone rafoo chakar. Koi baat nai - let’s just assume he’s taking a break from looking after his brood of quarrelsome murgiyaan. It can be hard work, looking after a bunch of chooks who think it’s perfectly acceptable to behave like a collective of goondas after a bad batch of lassi during Holi. So go and buy yourself another murga. Don’t bother asking your brother about the missing . It’s the month of Ramadan, so let uy another murga and hope that he is able to control all the murgiyaan - because after a week or two of freedom, the murgis might have decided that they don’t want a murga lording over them after all, especially if one of the murgis now identifies murga and can fulfil this role to exemplary standards.


And your second option? Well, Eid is coming up, and no doubt you will have to ensure a feast. So maybe you can halal all the murgi for an Eid dawat. Everyone knows that murgi ki tarkari is essential for Eid. Problem solved. No murga, no murgi, and no shaitaani temptation for bade bhaiya either. Win win. Eid Mubarak!
