He was told by the *hakim* (Muslim doctor) that his condition was very serious. In fact, he needed a heart transplant. "Fine, *hakim sahib*," replied the Brahmin. "Do it. But whatever you do, do not give me the heart of a Shudra man." The *hakim* agreed and performed the operation. After the operation, the *hakim* was delighted to see the man alive. "Panditji, I have some good news and some bad news." said the *hakim*. "Let me tell you the bad news first." "What is it ?" asked the Brahmin. "Sorry, I know about your caste restrictions, but I had to use a Shudra man's heart," said the *hakim*. The Brahmin's face went pale. "*He Ram*!" (O Ram!) he exclaimed. "And what is the good news?" "The good news is: your *zubb* (penis) is five *unglees* (inches) longer!" The End
