DO IT "DESI"!!

india... full of colors.... where peple hav versatile tastes....versatile choices.......different trends...different sense of style...bt wats in common? well dats the "desipan"  (indianness).... yes where ever we go...watever we wear....  whichever cusine we try..... anythng we speak...... evrythng has a "tadka" of our "desi"  style.
hmmm its nt dat we hate authenticity or we dnt wanna incorporate lifestyles from all over the world...bt as much as we love adapting new thngs....we also love mending them to suit our indian style and sensibility. just imagine lets say  a  chinese cuisine, mouth waterng  isnt it? bt wat actually comes into our mind wen we  thnk of it is  our punjabi style spicy chinese.... n hwsoever  ppl may deny it...bt deep down  wat our taste buds relish is the spicy indianised chinese loaded with sauces...... well chinese cuisine  is just example...hav a look at  pizza hut..... which wen launched  had only classical pizzas...which acc to us  was  blan.....n we indians  refused to hav such "tasteless" pizza...... so the outcome is that...now wen u goto  pizza hut  there  is all "teekha paneer tikka pizza" , "tandoori chicken pizza" n many more...even our  KFC has launcehd  all new  hot chicken wings...considering indian taste buds in mynd..........
 bt our " desipan" is nt limited to food only......well we all love shoppng and  wen it comes to cloths hands  down to it no1 can beat us..... while we all like western clothes......bt still we fynd  the colors  n the cuts  bit borng and basic.... so our designers put their efforts in creatng wat we call is indianised fusion clothng..... even recent fashion week displayed  indian block printing and bandhni tie n die technique inculcated into western wear quite intrestngly..... and with some bling to it..... coz  we all know...we love bling!
talkng abt bling.....the first thng dat pops into my mind is indian weddng......welll on dis  even critics  wud agree that indian marriages r none less than a grand pompous award funtions.......  we dnt like simple weddings.....we hav loud music..... loud colors..... over the top bling!  n almost evrythng u can imagine....... while on one side of world...dere is simple marriage  at church with simple clothng....here on oder hand we like to  hav a larger than life affair....with all glittery bride..... nd even more colourfull guests...... n so on ...... i can keep on writing  abt it...bt it wnt end....so such is our sensiblity......... n if all dis  was not  enough  we hav our very own desi version of hollywood n yes u guessed it  its  bollywood......
hmmmm so movies  r like bestest tym pass.....n movie stars  are like our role model....n we can't imagine an indian movie without  a song....... n if its item number den it just gets  even better..... i mean who cares  whether "tees maar khan or dabbang"    did well at box ofice or nt...as long as "munni and shiela"   item numbers r dere we dnt care....its nt dat we dnt like movie  with meaningful content...bt we want out share of desi entertaimnment  in dat too.............well n lastly the biggest example of our desi modification is our hinglish..... yes we like english we want to fluant english bt ofcoarse  nt without a twist.... we want out national language hindi to b part of dis english too...so wat we hear today are words like...."pataofyng"(impressing)... bhunofyng(roastng) n many more...so such are we indian........ so it proves  dat in the nd  we all are indians at heart and it wnt b wrong in sayng dat ..wen u got to do it...do it desi......
