Matchmaker matchmaker find me a match

The Iengar Chick recalls the good old days of matchmaking for Tam Brams….

My dad, the regular comedian would often name the prospectives in the true tam bram fashion…the dudhyonams aka curd rice (the fair and silent types), the puliyogares aka tamarind rice (the not so fair, talktatives) etc etc.

…and cuts to the present with some matrimonial ads she read recently, such as these

She should be good looking and should have a service. She Shoulsd haveone brother and one sister. She should be educated.

My wife should be as ‘Parwati’ as in Kahani Ghar Ghar Ki and as Tulsi in KSBKBT……

    Grew up in amchi mumbai too…so hated their guts when Bombay was re-christened.

    But as they say all good things come to an end. But it will always be Bombay to me too.

    Cheers
