My Dear Kuttichathan!! A favourite movie of mine. Watched it with my parents in Ernakulam when it was released in 1984. What a thrilling experience to wear those goggles! Still get nightmares when I see that Mantravaadi!
ಕಣ್ಣಿಗೆ ಕಾಣುವ ಗುಡ್ಡೆ ಅಂದರೆ ಗಾರ್ಬೇಜ್ ತಾನೆ
ಗಾರ್ಬೇಜ್…ಗಾರ್ಬೇಜ್…
ಗಾರ್ಬೇಜ್…ನಮ್ ಗಾರ್ಬೇಜ್
ರೋಡ್ ತಿಪ್ಪೆ ಸೊಳ್ಳೆಗೆ ಸ್ವರ್ಗದ ಹಾಗೆ
ತಿಪ್ಪೆಯ ಮೇಲೆ ನಲಿಯೋದೆ ಕಾಗೆ (೨)
ಮಂಡೂರ್ ಗೆ ಕಸ ಸಾಕಾಗಿದೆಯಂತೆ
ಕಸದ್ ಡಬ್ಬದೊಳಗೆ ಕಸ ದಬ್ಬ್ ಹಾಕಿ (೨)
ಎಂದೆಂದು ಕಸದ ಕವರನ್ ಹೀಗೆ
ಸೆಗ್ರಿಗೇಟ್ ಮಾಡಿ ಕೊಡ್ತೀವಿ ಮೇಯರ್!
ಕಣ್ಣಿಗೆ ಕಾಣುವ ಗುಡ್ಡೆ ಅಂದರೆ ಗಾರ್ಬೇಜ್ ತಾನೆ

Q1. Two Tamilians and two Kannadigas are on a train. During the journey, all four get talking. When the train halts at some station, one Tamilian and Kannadiga get down to stretch themselves. After some time, the train starts slowly to move. At just that moment, the Tamilian and Kannadiga ask each other, “Nimdu yaav ooru?” Both of them say the name of the place. Not only do they say the name of the place, they also tell their friends to get into the train. Both of them say just one word.
Can you guess what they both told?

Q3. A Bihari was standing near JP nagar with his girlfriend. She asked him to take her to a movie. She immediately began scolding him for writing such horrible mails with no punctuation marks. He stopped an auto and told a word that the auto driver understood. The same word was also like asking the girl: You mean , ?
What did he tell?

We all know that Bangalore has many people from many parts of India. Maybe to remind each Kannadiga resident who has been here all his/ her life that this is still our city, BBMP has written on many walls across the city: Nenapirali, Idu Nimma Nagara!
Sarcasm at its best!

I was travelling in a bus towards Dairy Circle yesterday. At Shantinagar (Double Road) bus stop, a couple of elderly men, dressed in Dharwad style, got in. One asked the other: Nimhans stop tilidaitenn? The other nodded which meant ‘Yes’.
But they both missed getting down at Nimhans and had to alight at Dairy Circle. The guy who had asked the question was blasting the other fellow: Hucchenle ninage? Stop gottu antha helde? Nee Hucch &@$% Maga yenle?

En route KBS (Kempegowda Bus Stand), I saw a wall on which it was written: Illi Cheetigalannu Antisi (please stick bills here). An English teaching institute has pasted some bills on a portion of the writing very intelligently. At the end of the wall, I read “..dhisalaguvudu“.
