Another indian state in my pouch. This time it was Punjab . I met a desi fellow in a car shop near my house and he on his own asked me whether I was from Punjab :).
This came after KJ's wife asked me whether I was from Gujurat . But i have been identified as Gujju before .
That reminds me of the time , I was sitting with KJ gorging on some Indian sweets . We were comparing our experiences in India when we make our yearly visits and as I was cribbing about the 4 hrs i spend reaching my house from the airport. He asks me why I had gone to kerala during my India visit, I replied that my parents stay over there to which he asks whether my Dad is working in Kerala to which I replied Dad has retired and he has got a house in kerala to which he replies why did my parents had a house in Kerala instead of their *native* place to which I replied , our native place is Kerala. And what followed was a stunned expression of KJ's face.After a minute of silence where I imagined him to be analyzing and churning on the recent piece of information given by me. He asked me whether I was playing some trick on him. As i was pondering on whether to show him my passport or the birth certificate , HP and his Mrs came by and KJ popped the question to them .

Few days back I was talking to one of my friends and she was not willing to believe that I was a mallu ... Well the magic is still there ;)
