The crazy brother joke
Yep, didn't get it. Can somebody explain to me lol. I thought the movie was great, the ending was wonderful, but I didn't get that last joke.

shareMy take on it:
The man in the joke wants the product (eggs) of something (chicken) his brother claims to be but isn't. Alvi also wants things out of love (happiness? relief? distraction?), things he will probably never obtain, because love is just a concept. It is a concept in his mind, but also in the mind of the person he's in a relationship with, which renders things even more abstract and unreal. He dismisses that fact and keeps searching for what he wants out of love, but it's a wild goose chase. Pun intended.
I hope this makes sense.
Great nick. I think if you watch the last scene and listen, it will make more sense.
