Yes I know as I have seen most places in that area, I had been to Mangalore long back, I remember I went to Calicut from there now they call it Kozikode. Actually this is all in one straight line from Mangalore to Trivendrum. All along the coast.
Yes thats right ! Mangalore borders the state of Kerala and one can find lot of Malayalees in Mangalore.There is a lot of shared influence on either side and Mangalorean food too has a lot of Kerala influence in it.
BTW, what did you think of Kodavas, they are originally of Greek descent and known for their good looks..
I think I told you earlier also that I like the way they look and behave, I met on SP of police in Coorg a young boy long back, he was such a handsome boy (looked like a Punjabi boy). I think these Kodvas belong to Thakur clan and look like kings and queens. I liked the way they wear their sari. Lovely looking guys. Why did you ask this in particular?
Kodavas have Greek blood in them.They trace their ancestry to Alexander and his army which wandered south and a few of them settled down in Coorg and made it their home marrying the local girls...Do you know that there are very few authentic Kodavas, just 5 main families and all are somehow or the other related to these five families..
Pay no mind to those who talk behind your back, it simply means that you are two steps ahead !!!
