The First Part of the book contains about fifty episodes which depict on aspect of Haryanvi Culture or the other; this being explained by a small introduction or opening followed by one or two relevant jokes. The jokes are purely original and not much of craft has gone in, so far as their narration is concerned. Everything has been said in lighter-vein and with no malice to any individual or class. All the episodes naturally grow and emanate from the soil, and soul, of Haryana and if one has a nose, sensitive to this fragrance, can enjoy the aroma. The second Part enshrines typical characters found in the Haryanvi cultural milieu. Open can find these characters in the entire back-drop of Indian society yet here is something unique about them. These Haryanvi characters have been introduced in a manner, as the reader is face to face with them and in turn, they too seem to be coming out of their frame, to shake Hands with the readers, humorists and lovers of culture.
