An associate professor at the Institute of Islamic Studies at McGill University in Canada has left the Internet in splits. Reason? Pasha M. Khan, a professor, was prepared to deliver his research at a scheduled event. But there was a delay. So, when the organiser of the event informed the professor about it, his 'desi' reply to the mail left many amused.

"In this life, you can either be a professor or a South Asian. Choose your culture overall and live a beautiful life," wrote Pasha M. Khan as he shared the screenshot of a mail. In the mail, you can see a person informing Khan that one of the speakers at the event cancelled, so they would have to push back the event. To this, the professor replied comically and wrote, "Oh, I would have come on desi time anyway."
