Ok, that is a bad pun. But fun. I got to go outdoors in Indore. Decided to explore and went to a place that has a lot of history associated with the Holkars who ruled here two-three centuries ago.
Rajwada is a seven-storeyed structure that was burnt by the attacking troops from a hostile Scindia of Gwalior. It has a small museum with artefacts from those Holkar days, some rifles, copper coins, measures like chhatak, pau, seer etc., and pics. There was also a pic of young Vijayendra Ghatge (actor), who was related.
Very crowded markets, and difficult drive, but worth visiting.

sounds 'Hol'isitic..
Another must see place is Laal Baug Palace of Indore. Recent movie scenes of 'Singh Saab The Great' were shot inside this palace...
Shall try one day, Anil.
DH, Holkar ne kuch to 'kar' dikhaya. Hum koshish mein lage hain.
