is that gul-e-bakauli? really?

i remember that thin story book from childhood..called gul-e-bakauli..the one which had an old lady..jis ka aik baal dhop may dekho to woh namodar ho jati thi..that had some shehzadi too..and it had a flower too..

so i was thinking that i might see a fairy tale thing munh besornay wala icon

Hey, I read that story too. However, I always thought gul-e-bakawali was a made-up word. So the flower actually exists. Nice.

Qrius..there was no old lady in that story.

Destinee, I don’t think these flowers looked like Tulips. I will check next time i go there.

Qrius, thanks, for the info and the real gul bakauli. I am happy as well as sad coz all that time i thought this blackish flower was gul bakauli.
