Chennai — Gold in Chennai has taken a dazzling turn, with citizens now more interested in checking their daily “gold horoscope” instead of the weather. With the new trend, an unlikely coalition of confused pigeons and ardent goldsmiths has declared gold rates as volatile as a soap opera plot twist.
How Did We Get Here? Blame It on the Astrologers!
In a twist that’s shinier than a South Indian wedding, Chennaiites have started eagerly consulting astrologers to predict gold prices based on planetary movements. Following a persuasive WhatsApp message claiming that Venus’ retrograde motion affects gold purity, Chennai households are now balancing between gold prices and celestial orbits with the fervor of a stock market analyst. Local temples have been inundated with devotees not only offering shiny donations but also asking priests for the day’s “Gold Rate Bhavishya.”
Forget GDP, Meet GDP: Gold-Driven Panic
The local economy has gone into what experts are calling a “Gold-Driven Panic” or GDP for short. Street vendors, once happily exchanging coconut water for cash, are now examining each customer with a suspicious eye, through a new setup dubbed the ‘golden eye.’ Even paanwalas have allegedly begun accepting only gold flakes as payment, leaving gum-chewers in a bind, stuck holding sticky chapattis instead of change. Economists are baffled as more and more businesses pivot to a gold-based economy, citing inflation and Diamond Jubilee schemes as the culprits.
Goldsmith Narasimhan Speaks: “Even I Can’t Keep Up!”
Local goldsmith Narasimhan has become a household name, featured on prime time news for his outlandish forecasts and wild jewelry parties where “everyone walks away with a certificate of authenticity, but no gold!” In a bizarre interview, Narasimhan confessed, “My wife asks for the gold rate of the day instead of morning tea. Frankly, I’d rather retire into the mountains and mine it myself than predict another rate increase!”
