Anush distinguishes between salwars and chudidaars.
If you use the wrong term, she will gently correct you as my grandma found out a couple of days ago.
But it is only in Chennai that they omit the kurta/ kameez bit when they refer to teh outfit- for instance- " Nice Salwar!!" or " Where did you find this chudidaar?"

Or more annoyingly... when they shorted chudidaar to chudi!!
just read your new story... very nice. looking forward to the second part :-) so, have you started narrating them to Anush yet?
oh ya initially when i moved to south and someone asked me that i was surprised... now its become a part of my life :)
DC- If you pick up the hard copy of Chandamama u will find it- time lag of 2 issues on the site

It's the same in Bengal. Got used to it now.
Anush is growing up, eh. :) So does she have strong opinions about the clothes that she wears?
smart cookie this kid!
Smart!
Hahah...guilty as charged on this one Art.
However I really dont know why we said it that way.. it was just passed on to me and I think I never questioned it..
I never used Chudi ... it annoyed me when someone said that.
monika.ansh
she has had strong opinions on clothes for a while now- since she was 2 or so but she can be manipulated :-))
