Phone Doodle # 14: Rainbow Jalebi

I created this doodle on a phone app called Kids Doodle.

Make way for the V.I.Ps

Back off, move outta the way, Hey you...Stop! Don't you see? Our dear Governor's wife has come to see the butterflies?
OK! You say what the hell and you get out of the way of the press while the Governor poses with the butterflies in his hand and his big smile is being captured by the paparazzi, and what do you find? An ambulance and a FIRE BRIGADE waiting outside?? Whatttttttttttttt.....

Mickey Mouse, Spiderman, Hanuman - all in one :)

I just love this crazy mix of things this kid was selling at Juhu beach, Mumbai :)

Catwalk

The leopard that was walking up and down the ramp and getting himself photographed.
Location: The Bannerghatta Biological Park.

Butterfly Park at Bannerghatta Biological Park, Bangalore

The Butterfly Park is within the Bannerghatta Biological Park. I found it thoroughly interesting since this is the first time I saw one. What amused me most was that most of the names given to the butterflies were that of animals! Common Indian Crow, Plain Tiger, Spotted Tiger, Leopard something, and so on! Any explanations, anybody?

Chai Patty Teafe

Sid and I were in Indiranagar (Bangalore) and were hungry (as usual. Boy! This does make us sound like gluttons right?) We randomly stopped by for some chai only to say," Hey wait! this looks pretty cool!" There were yellow walls (my favourite), cane furniture, low seating, an easel (I'm impressed), and lots of accessories and toys which looked 'very Delhi'. Then we realized that these items were created by a brand called 'The Colour Caravan' and they were on sale. I remember seeing those items at 'Delhi Haat'. Anyway,we got egg omlettes with flax seed wheat bread, chai in a 'kullad'(50 bucks!), and milkshake in a tradition Indian milk bottle. It was so old school :) But the Gujju in me laughed at the sight of 'Chai and Snakes' image that was painted on the wall!

Son-in-Law ice-cream

Another strange name I came across in Chennai. Jamaai in Gujarathi / Hindi literally means 'son-in-law'. Thats the first association that came to my mind when I read the signage and immediately I cracked up at the thought! Like, I mean who in his right mind would name an ice-cream (of all things!) like this? Then, on second thoughts, it could even mean 'jamaai' in Hindi meaning 'the process of freezing', which seemed like a possible explanation to this. But then, why give a Hindi name to a brand in South India. I mean, there are no rules, but...well, never mind! So I said to myself, I think too much (for all the wrong reasons), so I just laughed at it again, clicked a picture, asked for one of the tacky ice- creams and walked away!

Ever heard of an A/C bed?

Ever heard of an A/C bed? I did! In Chennai.
Can anyone tell me the meaning of 2 Nos bed sheets? :)
