Text of Sharad Joshi’s Tum Kab Jaaoge Atithi?

Years ago when there used to be a single TV channel ‘DoorDarshan’ I watched, in a programme, Late Sharad Joshi reciting his essay “Tum Kab Jaaoge Atithi?” which I enjoyed very much. Recently when I heard about Ajay Devgn starrer “Atithi Tum Kab Jaaoge?”, first thought was whether it’s anywhere related to Sharad Joshi’s essay? and yes the movie is officially based on the essay.

While I still remembered the essay with a few sentences verbatim, most of text was fully forgotten. I searched a lot for it and at last got it. For last few days I have been typing it out and as I finish it today I produce it here with translation of a couple of excerpts.

Even the two Astronauts who travelled hundred thousand miles to reach the Moon did not stay there for period as long as one you have spent at my home after a comparatively smaller travel.

My guest, I know a guest is God, but after all I am a Human. God and Human don’t stay together for long. God returns a little later after he shows up before the Human. Please plan your return my Guest
