Finance Minister Arun Jaitley's phone hasn't stopped buzzing all Friday morning with calls and SMSes congratulating him for the smart turn of phrase he used against Yashwant Sinha, 'a job applicant @ 80'.

On social media, too, the video of his speech where he ripped into Sinha has gone viral.

It is learnt that even officials in the Prime Minister's Office enjoyed Jaitley's quip that he does not have the luxury of being a former finance minister who can write columns criticising the incumbent finance minister.
