I loved the daadi-mother(saas bahu) drinking scenes in vicky donor😆

she won in supporting role category... even YHM scene were funny initially and then many serial started copying the trend.

Heard it has spread in India.
Does alcohol react in different way depending on outside temperature. I known people drink in colder country to combat cold. Red in limit is said to be good for heart. White can refresh palette.

I don't drink alcohol. Hubby has to buy jewelry for anger. 😆

I am yet to come acress an indian family who do family drinking ...have only seen it onscreen...may be it happens in high class societies but i would think it's not common among ordinary people.

i dont think it is common in any middle class family!!

For some it is a fashion statement too

But smoking has become very uncool in the west, USA especially... It's no longer the sophisticated, cool thing to do, but a dirty habit which jeaopardizes other people's health too, so now even banned in bars

Although I heard models and movie stars still smoke to suppress appetite and kill boredom

If you watch old HW movies, glamorous ladies won't be seen without a cigarette in their hand 😆

Drinking wine with meal is going on for centuries in Europe... Not sure what goes well with curry - Red wine or White wine 😊

I think drinking and the habit of it varies..

Funnily enough, Americans have asked me if there's some kinda reason why South Asians smoke a lot? They were very polite about it but essentially asked " Guys from S Asia smoke a lot right? Is there some cultural significance to it?"
All I could think was, have times changed or what! 😆
But i can understand why they'd think that. In my uni almost all Indian guys smoked, but hardly any American did. It's still cool for Indians I guess..?
