The Modern and The Real

The Secret of production and consumption world is - "Sold is that which is virtually appealing". So, in this 21st century, the traditional 'ALU paratha' becomes the more fashionable masala kulcha. Here I was paying 200bucks for 2 rupee 'nibu pani' that came with umbrella and a straw in a fancy glass with a quarter slice of lemon, now it was a classified mocktail beverage. Wait! If 'pudina chutney' can be sold off as 'mint dip' then why can't a cup of hot water with coffee be sold as expresso! Guess what? Your favourite 'Corn with pinch of salt and lemon juice' can now be found in multiplexes, don't forget it's now called 'sweet corn'. The fork shows the migration of chopsticks to the land of spoons. The 'bun brothers' each travelled to different places, first turned burger, second turned vada- pav, third turned pav-bhaji.... Indian alu bhujia is french fries, paratha sabji are rolls and Mexican wrap!
