Jalebi bai … Jalebi buy ………

 OK baby! its republic day
India marked its 63rd Republic Day on Thursday, and it was on this day in 1950 that the world’s largest democracy adopted its Constitution and declared itself a Republic.
Its long way and many things have changed in India. We are progressing though the direction is still unclear.  One says that we will be super power. At the same time one say that corrupt are in power. (Then how can we be super power?) We praise our education system. But India ranked second last among the 73 countries that participated in International Student Assessment. (So instead of praise this raise doubts)
So its confusing…. just like those round round  jalebis ….. where  we can’t find the start or end…
Is it the reason why, we in Kolhapur celebrate our National days by eating Jalebis? Lot of Jalebis to mark lot of confusion…?????


Well, all who wants to know aasli Kolhapur should know that it’s our tradition to celebrate 26th Jan. and 15th Aug. by buying, eating and also distributing Jalebis. You
 will see hundreds of Roadside stalls preparing these syrupy sweet, right from the sun rise to sun set. Hot lovable aroma is coupled with DeshBhakti songs played on stereos. Unfortunately there few such numbers. So you will find same title being played on every Jalebi Joints which are pretty close to each other. This gives echo effect. (Surround sound for entire city. New concept. only in Kolhapur. Once again)
People stand patiently in queue to demonstrate their love towards this country. This is just one way of their expressions. Isn’t it sweet?
 In spite of all those hurdles of life in this country they live and sing…..
Buy Jalebi….. Jalebi baieee… Jalebi baieee…..
