Re: What do you like about Desi and Des.
its the land my forefathers fought for.- how can I not have a soft spot for it. if u look at history, there are stories of my ancestors heads being chopped off and hoisted at city gates at the war of independence in 1800s. from there all the way to demonstrating for pakistan, going to jail for civil disobedience..and in the end, leaving everything and everyone to move to their new homeland..I can not forget that and turn my back on the country.
i like some desi food - cuz of variety and taste (easy on the ghee please)
I like desi music (unless its just stolen)- chillin to sitar and tabla is an experiennce not to be missed
I like desi poetry and literature- ghalib, mir, faiz, iqbal, ibne insha, yusufi, shfeeq ur rehman, ibn e safi..need I say more
I like desi family atmopshere
