So she is officially MRS SRK- I mean Mrs. Siddhartha Roy Kapoor, I hope Vidya would learn proper Punjabi now and Sids the Malayalam to express themselves better.
Vidya Balan is a Palghat Iyer which means although they come from Ottapalam and surrounding areas they still speak Tamil which has a few malayalm words in it, so SRK will have to learn Tamil spoken by Iyers...
And I always was under the impression that Vidya is from Kerala. That's perfectly fine for SRK to learn Tamil that is far easier to learn than Malayalam. After all he has gone the Tamil way and rituals in marriage ceremonies. Good for him.
The Palghat Iyers come from Ottapalam and Palghat district which is in Kerala but they have their origins in Coimbatore and Chennai, and speak Tamil which is slightly different !
Yes Pallakad being adjacent place or nearby while going from Coimbtore side, I had been there and some best gold shops in town and rural areas there compared to any where else in our country.
I went under a medical checkup in Gurgaon today in the morning and while coming back by metro to my town, I was amazed to see that 90% youngsters busy with their mobile phones doing so many activities other than talking. The mobile seems to have taken over major share of manpower of Indian youth today.
That is ridiculous people take risk this is not good to pay attention towards mobile when someone has to be more attentive to look around. I daily see such people and sometimes when they come in front of my car on the road I gave them lectures but it hardly affect their habit of doing this. :evil:
I am surprised that they are not lecturing you back to keep an eye on texting kids, that is your responsibility to keep them safe while they are using mobiles.
Should i see a kid or see if he/she is texting or not. :woohoo:
That's why I have sold my car and traveling by public transport to watch them text, that's fun all the way. ;)
hehehe...yes it is fun when you see them texting and smiling like a mad after receiving a SMS. :laugh:

incidentally, just 2 days ago, i have seen a lady in a mall, while looking into the mobile, walking and texting, dashed another man who was also in the same condition lost balance and almost fell on the ground.

In malls and offices, this is more funny than risky.

Yes this looks funny when we see a kid seeing in his/her mobile and smiling. :woohoo:
I don't like people texting on the public place I never do that. I hate talking on mobile phone when I am on road or in bus. I seriously feel bad for people who are standing in the bus and texting to their friends and forget that the place they had to de board passed by. :woohoo:
Limited and proper usage of mobile phone is always recommended for everyone which is good in all the aspects.
This is quite dangerous for us. We diverted our minds for different 2 works. It is quite risky.
So, We must finish our talks and then crossed the road.
Persons those who use their mobile phones while crossing roads need to be dealt with penalties (fine) along with imprisonment.
This is the weakness here. We have truck loads of laws, but where is the implementation?
I don't understand what's so important to discuss while cross road. Most of the people know that it's hazardous but still do it. :angry:
I too find it weird that people choose to talk with rapt attention when they have to cross the road or at traffic signals disregarding safety for themselves and others too...Cant it wait for a few seconds or minutes ?

I think a notice board should be paced on different roads saying
"Do not use cellphones while crossing road or we shall have to waste petrol for carrying you to hospital dead or injured''
This should help the cause effectively.

Sure, it serves the purpose. We are not those who care for the rules if said in a gentle and smooth way. Only such type of drastic warnings only work on us. I appreciate your soggestion

LOL, the person may be too busy conversing on his mobile to see any notices...the more information is available to people on the net and elsewhere the more blind they seem to become to their immediate surroundings...

Even notices, fines don't work for Indian as we are used to break rules. The funny thing is we are ready to face danger but never want to follow the rules or indication. Everyone is in a hurry to overtake another no time to think or stop for a while.. :dry:
Once I saw a women talking on phone while using escalator.. she was having 2 to 3 bags in her hand and one hand is engaged in talking.. she almost slipped but didn't fell luckily. what if she couldn't have managed..can't see wait for a min and finish the conversation. I warned her that escalator is not like lift...then she laughed but still didn't caught my point. :S :blink: :)

I remember a similar incident in Bangalore in a mall where a lady's high heel got caught in the grove of an escalator since she was too busy chatting and holding bags with the other hand....she fell down and thankfully other than some minor bruises to her hands and fingers dint have any serious injury,,,am sure she has learnt her lesson! :dry:

I always appreciate a notice on hilly roads in my area that reads
Better late than never- your family is waiting for you eagerly- Please do not be a cause for their disappointment- your life is precious for them.
I always see the drivers loosen grip on gas paddle.

Yes that is a good one, while travelling from Mangalore to Bangalore on the western ghat roads there are many sign posts that are amusing as well as imprinting the message into your mind..I must take pictures of some of them while travelling..

I think she must have learnt a lesson but I think even high pointed heels are also injurious sometime while climbing steps or uneven flooring.

Style makes people blind, ultimately losing limbs.
