Nord marries Sud...


Nord Marries the Sud
Jus kidding...in Germany and France

  • Nord = North
  • Sud = South
(pardon the german...itz just me ;-) )

I am going to touch upon a sensitive issue now ;-).

I am referring to the marriage of Aishwarya Rai to Abhishek Bacchan .

The big fat wedding to me is a marriage of the most eligible north indian to the most eligible sout indian. North indians usually are fair skinned people vis-a-vis the South indians. In my career I have worked with and come across people from North,South,West,East India. While all are obviously attached to their birth place. Some people are honest in their opinion.


In my personal experience only north indians are always critical of the Beauty of South Indians.

South indians are generally thought of as the dark skinned and called the "Madrasi s"


Well to be frank south indians are dark majorly due to the severe climate in those regions.

But fairness has nothing to do with beauty right ?. Kerala, TN, karnataka have their good share of fair skinned people. This "Madrasi" labelling is foolishness.


S indians are also labelled ugly...which is going a bit too far...South indians are smart, suave and many also are fair skinned which is contrary to the belief of the north indians.

The marriage of Aishwarya and Abhishek just proves this point beyond doubt.
That south indians are also equally beautiful and fair. After all Ash was the ms. World :)
With the new cocktail of culture and mixture of different regionalities in Bangalore....10/15 years down the line we might have a bangalore species of indians who will be the true indians. It will be an explosive mixture maybe of the sud and the nord ;) .

hello prasann,

you maintain good blog. It has un mistakable breath of Life.
Also some posts are lazily autobiographical some are in-coherent to the reader.
But nevertheless they are good read.
Some posts smack of pessimism and remind me of that other pessimist mark Twain.

keep blogging
