One day, Sheikh Chilli observed that a crowd had gathered around someone in the street. He went closer and found that an old lady was lying unconscious on the road. People were discussing what to do. Some were suggesting that the lady should be rushed to the hospital. Some said, “We should sprinkle water on her face to revive her.” Sheikh, who was listening to all these discussions, immediately said, “Hello friends, I know how to revive old people. Please get hot jalebies and make this lady smell them. She will definitely regain her consciousness. My mother used to do this with my grandmother.” Meanwhile, the old lady, who was almost back in her senses, heard what Sheikh had said, so she pretended to be unconscious. But none rushed to bring the jalebies. Soon, the lady lost her patience. She sat up and shouted, “Why don’t you all listen to this young boy? He is absolutely right!” And everyone present in the crowd started laughing at Sheikh and the old lady.
