Everyone and their moms know how difficult it is to get a rickshaw guy to say a yes to you! As I suffered rejection multiple times again this morning, I decided to list down 10 things one can definitely do while hailing a rickshaw. Trust me, this will definitely work!
1) Promise him your first born.
Rickshaw wala or Rumpelstiltskin? You never know!
2) Perform a blood sacrifice.
WE’RE BLOOD BROTHERS FROM NOW!
3) Start crying profusely when he says no.
Cry cry till you succeed.
4) Tell him a place you know he’ll want to go… like Narnia or Hogwarts or something.
And stop when your REAL destination arrives, like Kandivali or Bhandup.
5) Flash him your leg!
From It Happened One Night to SATC 2, the best trick to get a rick is to throw a brick. Or just flash some leg! (sorry I got carried away with the brick part).
6) Trip and fall right in front of his rickshaw!
He might think you’ve met with an accident and he might take you to Andheri (East)… might.
7) Offer him more money!
Bees rupaiya extra doongi, pakka!
8) Pay him a compliment
Something on the lines of – nice rickshaw decor! Or nice moustache!
9) Threaten him with legal action
You know it’s illegal to say no to me, don’t you?
10) If nothing else works, just put some fake blood and act like you’re about to die.
If he has a conscience he’ll take you to the nearest ambulance. ‘If’ being the operative word.
What do you think? He HAS to say a yes after this doesn’t he?
