Before you start an indignant tirade against child labour, know this- this little man is not employed by a cunning tea stall owner who needs ‘chotus’ for cheap labour. The stall belongs to his father and ‘Makhan’ here is very fond of making tea from time to time, claiming that his tea is ‘sabse zabardast’. The only thing he dislikes even more than his friends calling him ‘Makkhi’ is books and academics. Ironically Makhan, nine years old and studying in a local school in Jodhpur aspires to be a doctor. He also wants to own a ‘lambi waali laal gadi ' (a long red car) one day. This happy smile is an intrinsic part of Makhan, who loves making new friends. So after the short conversation with him, I couldn’t resist but ask for a cup of his tea. And, it was definitely ‘sabse zabardast’.
