Uniquely Indian Things

Band baaja baaraat..nothing like it anywhere in the world..Ghodi pe hoke sawaar and all that!

Chain-snatching. Nowhere in the world do we have so many chain-snatchers..NY and Chicago have their Mugger-gangs , but not chain-snatchers.

Pan- the unique concoction of a betel leaf is used after food (Pet pooja) and the leaf alone is also used in many of our poojas/functions like haldi kumkum.

Chai..nobody drinks the kind of chai that we do-if we discount the wannabe Lattes, I mean.

The saree- maybe Sri Lanka also has a version of it in 5 yards, but the nine yard variant is certainly found only here.
