As I have started spending a considerable amount of time in India, I've decided to pen down some of the more "interesting" observations from my motherland. My friends say I get more frustrated than most when dealing with my fellow countrymen, that this idiosyncrasy is part of the charm. These same "friends" might consider a random stranger asking them their "salary" or "father's name/business" to be charming, but it usually leaves my brain in a state of epileptic fits.
This blog is dedicated to all those of us who have cringed after hearing such luminous phrases as
- "You just don't understand Indian movies to realize how great they are; see how the the Japanese love Rajnikanth... even THEY appreciate Indian movies!!"
- "So finally the world has realized how great India is... everyone in the West is now practicing yoga... they have finally realized what we discovered thousands of years ago. Stupid Americans"
- "You have black friends ?!?! What are they like... ? Its better you stick to Indians.."
- Or watched any of the numerous skin whitening commercials on TV. My personal favorite being the "Fair and Handsome" commercial with "American peptides and herbs" -
Happy Readings.
