Some villagers talking:

haida 2: “oho hangenu.. naanu aateya.. aa’ kyathi pirriyamma’ndu (Katy Perry) ‘pataki’ (fireworks) matte aa ‘riyaanavva’ndu (Rihanna) ‘chatri’ (umbrella) kyoltidde.. en tamte baddhave maga.. tale gimmm antu ”

A haida comes running… “yo yo yo.. il kelrala.. nimdella angirli.. naanu aa yakkaan (akon) haad kyolde.. tale chitranna aagoytu.. avnu “naan ***de (sandakkittu)” (I had sex (felt so good)) anta hadavne.. thu jana aalaagogavrappa.. sivane kapaDbeku…. ”

mind RAP...

My head hurts
My eyes burn
My heart cries
But my mind lies
That everythin’s alright
Yes, I can see
What he’s tryna warn me
That when we start seein’ the dark side
We start sinkin’ with the returnin’ tide

My daily cosmetic roundup...

Firstly, a foundation coating of fresh morning dirt… then a coating of extra fine diesel soot (Courtesy: old dirty trucks).. then, a rejuvenating coating of petrol-kerosene smoke (courtesy: old noisy autos) to revitalize the skin cells.. an occasional mud spray to beat the heat (courtesy: BBMP watering vehicles).. just when u start thinking life is so good.. comes a final mind boggling coating of dust-petrol-diesel soot mixed elegantly with a right amount of tantalizing scents and aromas from the drains and stagnant lakes (near flyover construction areas)… all leaving u so fresh and alive… ahhhhhh!!! Taazgi ka ehsaas… :{
