In an English literature class, the Professor was going to begin lectures on Shakespeare.
Since it was the first day of semester, the Professor asked the Sardar ji – “Hi, Santa Singh, have you read Romeo and Juliet?”
Well, Sardar ji thought for a second. He certainly wanted to give the professor a good impression on the first day of school, but was not sure of the book either. So he replied – “Humm, I think I have read Romeo already, but did not have time to finish Juliet.”
Professor explained that it was a single book. Everyone in class laughed. Santa was a bit embarrassed on his stupidity and was thinking he should have been simply honest.
Then, again, Professor asked another question – “That’s fine, Santa, Have you ever read Shakespeare?”
Now, it was Sardar’s chance to save his face and he wanted to answer the question with full honesty. He replied – “No Sir, who wrote it?”
