Moving to North India is a quite a culture shock for anyone from South India. But the beauty of India and being an Indian is that you can survive, adapt and thrive anywhere! But sometimes, life can get a little tough for us. Here are a few little things that go wrong everyday;
1. No authentic coffee
1. No authentic coffee
No, we're not talking about that instant decaf you call coffee, we mean the authentic "filter kaapi!"
2. No South Indian movies in cinemas
How come you guys remake all our movies but don't watch the originals?
3. Everyone thinks we're Rajni fans by default
And by the way, Rajnikanth never said "Yenna Rascala!"
4. Having to give geography lessons to our friends almost everyday
No, for the millionth time, Chennai is NOT in Kerala. And no, all South Indians are NOT Madrasis!
5. No beaches...
No waves, no ships, no sand, no sunset? *Sobs silently*
6. Getting scandalised (and drunk) at loud North Indian weddings
Rum, rum, rum, rum? Whiskey? But you have to hand it to them. They may be loud, they may be gaudy but boy, are they fun!
7. Dealing with stupid nicknames
Come on now! Arikarasudan Muragapa Duraisami Thyagarajan cannot be that tough to roll off your tongue. Give it a shot.
