Jadoo!

by Amit Gupta

When mother died, she left her famous recipe book to her two sons who run the family Indian restaurant.

One does her fabulous starters, the other her magnificent main courses.

Now they've fallen out, torn the book in half and got separate restaurants.

So customers have their starters in one establishment, then troop across the road to finish their meal in the other.

How can son Jay cure the rift?

This is an unbelievably stupid story of two brothers, restaurateurs, who have fallen out over one of them selling off family recipes. It is totally overwritten.

The drama is in two scenes. The first is that customers reading a local restaurant guide go to one brother's restaurant for starters and the other for main courses. When the customers won't order a main course in the first and the proprietor asks why, he gets really upset and throws the customer out. Similarly with the main course brother.

The second is the reconciliation. The second brother discovers that the first brother didn't sell of the recipes to finance his son's education (the son is engineering the reconciliation) but for their beloved mother. That's all right then.

Ridiculous, but entertaining for a couple of hours.
