eventhough I love DP...and the film too...the way the SI were made to speak in hindi...that accent...was just dumb and insulting! 😕

Deepika Padukone's accent in Chennai Express had NOTHING chennai about it -

Coming from a Chennai-ite!

Exactly... Its has become a signature style for south Indians to wear lungi, have white chandan on forehead, and speak weird hindi.

Same goes for portrayal of Bengalis...😆 I am a Bengali, but i find it immensely funny.🤣

I beg to differ with you Paulo. Trust me,its just a section of people who talk in a certain way."peculiar" the way you call it. But its just not fair for people to stereotype it. Most people speak hindi very fluently here as well.Despite the fact that,hindi is not our mother tongue.thats commendable really.

the sad thing is only the "peculiar" population has been made famous. Add to it meenamma's BOKWAAS hindi in chennai express. I have never heard any south indian speak hindi that way 😕

I can speak very fluent hindi and in a non-peculiar way.And it used to annoy me when my north indian friends used to say "arre.tum itni achchi hindi kaise bol leti hoon?" And im like,dude!im an indian too u know!

Yep, true.

Y'day I was at my neighbourhood chemist shop. This old lady stopped me & asked me which is better between Fair & lovely & some Garnier bright white cream. I kept staring at her. And then she started explaining, Stating she wants it for her grand-daughter & "Aap to dood jaise ho aur wo kaali to in mein se Kaun so acchi cream hain beta?"

Chemist : "Aunty jee kaali toh, Kaali Maata bhi hain"

Best reply to utter stupidity. 🤣

🤣

Amen to the last bit, Annie.

And you're absolutely & completely right! I love you! 🤗

You are too kind. ❤️ India is one of the worst places for women to live. The so-called violent countries are at least explicitly misogynistic. India boasts of progress, and has the deep misogynist trend running through it, affecting both the older and younger generation of men and women alike. 😭

You're lucky Annie...I'm very fair by Indian standards...

And this is a trait that's got me praise😕 in MY house and my husband's house...(even in my house there are still comparisons to this date - my dad and mom are darlings, but this comparison-aspect is something they've sadly inherited even though they only mean it in a light-hearted note!)

As for my husband's house -its a borderline obsession! In fact,in my husband's house I recd mass approval because of my looks/colour..they still talk and talk and talk about stories of grand-aunts and the sort in their family who were VERY VERY fair...

'I'm like yeah..even ghosts are very very fair!'
