The complete Crazy Mohan jokes on Thiruppaavai from "Crazy Theives
in Palavakkam":

Ramanujam	:  	Enda uppili margazhi masam kalailE Thiruppaavai
				sonna puNNiyamaavathu kidaikkum 

Uppili		:	Thiruppaavaiaa? ennappa athu?

Ramanujam   :   Thiruppaavai theriyaathaa unakku? namba aandaaL
				ezhuthina pattudaa

Uppili      :   anthap paattu entha cinimavile varuthu?

Ramanujam   :   cinimap pattilEdaa athu. maargazhi maasam muppathu
				naaLum nee kovilukkup pOrayE, angE enna nadakkum?

Uppili      :   aamampa, nee kooda solluvE, margazhi masam 
				kovilukkup pOnal puNNiyam kidaikkumnu. puNNiyam
				kidaikkumO illiyO kovilla nalla pongal kidaikkum.

Ramanujam   :   pongalliyE iru! maargazhi maasam muppathu naaLum
				kovilla pongal vangith thinnuttu, varushaththula
				meethi irukkara naaLai anthap pongalai 
				serikkirathil selavazhi! pongal kodukkarathukku
				munnaal kovilla enna nadakkum?

Uppili      :   pongal quevilE orE adithadi nadakkum.

Ramanujam   :   iyO. Uppili...

Uppili      :   ennappaa?

Ramanujam   :   konjam pongal quevai vittu veLiyilE varrayaa?

Uppili      :   sarippaa. aang... ippO NYapagam varuthuppaa,
				pongal kodukkarathukku munnalE, ellaarum gumbalaa
				bajanai paNNindu varuvaa. naduvulE oru maamaa
				mattum thaniyaa gancha adichchiNdu varuvaar

Ramanujam   :   gancha illEda athu, gancheeraa

Uppili      :   nee ennai ippadi mattamaa pEsariyee, bajanailE
				avaLLaam kooda "maargazhip pongal, madi niraintha
				nannaalaam"nu thaanE paadiNdu pOnaa...

Ramanujam   :   avaa padiNdu vanthathu "maargazhith thiNgaL mathi
				niRaintha nannaaLaam". sari, ippo naan paadarEn
				nee en koodap paadu, "maargazhith thingaL"

Uppili      :   "maargazhith thingaL"

Ramanujam   :   sabash. aduththathu enna?

Uppili      :   "maargazhith sevvaai"

Ramanujam   :   sani, sani!

Uppili      :   ennappaa ithu, thingaLukku aduththu sevvaaithaan.
				nee saninggariyE?

Ramanujam   :   kashtagaalam. vaaththiyaar piLLai makkunggarathu
				sariyaai irukku.

Uppili      :   athukku naan ennappaa paNNamudiyum?
