Breaking the code-I

I was recently in Bangalore,shopping with a friend. I was really confused what to buy, I had nothing of my choice in the shops we visited and I was constantly being bugged by who may say what about the dresses I buy, if I buy that is. By chance my eyes fell on a purse and as if in code language I asked my friend," hey hetu bhaale ase na?". And instead of my friend replying I heard a male voice say,"haan, aru hetu bhi bhaal ase". I was taken aback and a bit embarrassed too. The shopkeeper had replied to me very matter-of-factly. I had to talk to him in that same language till I had paid and left the shop. Of all the things! Next time maybe I'll have to whisper and not talk in some code language.
