Festival of democracy is back . News channels have dug out their teams of Pundits & Analyst out of hibernation.Ugly billboards are at every street corner.
I'm a voter. I am like an oriental tourist in a hindu temple not sure if I'm gettting a'Dim Sum' or 'Darshan' when the results are out in May.

Bhangra Underground
Oh yes ...I'm totally getting used to it. Adjusting to my new life better than I thought I would.Its cold..I'm sick and its raining for last one week but its good. I like it.
There is more India in Canada than I thought.There is too much of Punjab in B.C.There are more Indian grocery stores in Vancouver than 7-11.There are more Indian Video stores than Blockbuster...and that's just an iota of the big Punjabi influence in B.C.
I'm seeing some good Punjabi Rockers (Poppers doens't sound right)on T.V. Punjabi M.C is one of them and there is Babbu Mann and the legend Gurudas Mann.
My ears find it difficult to tune to the new kind of folk music. Its Bhangra Underground USA and Gangsta Bhangra.I think I have heard similar titles before and seen the video of scantly clad beautiful girls dancing in the background and ugly guys in the lead belting out uglier lyrics.The bad thing, I can relate with these guys ...
Next on my schedule to head to the video store to grab a copy of 'Jakhmi Jaagirdar-II'.I have heard the sequel is better than the first.

Dear Star & Buc Wild
Philadelphia Power 99 FM recently aired a show where two gentlemen (Shockjocks) Star and Buc Wild called up a call center in India and cursed the operator calling her bi##@@ and f$$% . It was a comedy sketch, I guess not .
Star and Buc Wild did cross a line by cursing a poor girl who doesn't even know what kind of jerks these guys are. Star and Buc Wild stop venting out your frustration on innocent folks.Its the corporate greed that is moving jobs to other countries and nothing else.
Trust me ,the day Clear Channel Communications finds cheaper RJs than you two ...someone will be broadcasting your show from China making an obscene call to you .
