Taking to Instagram, Das shared the screengrab showing a series of messages sent by the woman over time. Some of the earlier reminders simply read “quinoa” and “mango mirchi”, before she followed them up with a much longer list of things she apparently needed to get done.
From groceries to finding the TV remote
The lengthy message included tasks such as “Email to Sinead”, “Order gift for Neha”, “B Wax, threading”, “Nail paint”, “Jhadu”, “Sirf top load”, “Jeera”, “Meethi dana”, “Ajwain”, “Scooty mein petrol”, “Cat food”, “Choti wali sui”, “Nada dalne wali dandi”, “Glue”, “Fold laundry” and “Find TV remote”.
Sharing the screenshot, Das wrote over the post, “This lady DMs me everyday using me as her to-do list. I hope you found the naade wala danda madam.”
Take a look here at the post:
The reference to “naade wala danda” is to a small tool or rod commonly used to pass a drawstring, or naada, through clothing such as pyjamas or salwars. The woman had specifically added “Nada dalne wali dandi” to her list of reminders.
Das kept the joke going in the caption and wrote, “Get it done madam. Get it done.”
The post quickly caught the attention of Instagram users, amassing more than 141,000 likes and over 3,000 comments.
