Nagpur and Kolhapur


I need to avoid reading books while traveling. 

During the Kolhapur- Belgaum bus journey, I am reading this book, and Karnataka bus conductor comes, saying "ticket, ticket". 
I absentmindedly pass him a couple of 100/- notes, say "Nagpur" and continue reading. 

Confused, he again asks me where. And I repeat, a bit loud and clear, NAGPUR. 

Now the passengers are looking at me, the conductor is looking at me, and am still in the book. So he taps me on the shoulder and says, 
"नाSSगपुरा?? रांSSग बस्स!"
( You going to Nagpur? You're in the wrong bus!)
