Which state are you from?

[johnee]

Well,
so far 6 from AP, 5 from TN, 3 from Kerala and 1 from Karnataka. Thats 15. So, 15 from south. If we assume that Maha also belongs to south then, adding 3 of MH, the south score 18 of 27. South wins hands down.

Now, our forum is officially idly vada forum.:twizt:

I prefer Utthapam though. That's what my mom used to make for breakfast

I am from ORISSA (now it will be called ODISHA). The Land of temples, white tigers, beaches. May be one of the peaceful states until recent communal violence in Kandhamal.

One of the least developed states in India. But lately things are changing for better.

Jagannath Temple, Puri ( one of the 4 most religious places in India[ 1 one of 4 dhams])

White Tigers at NandanKanan Zoo. (The first one in India to have white tigers)

Odissi Dance

Puri beach (just 500 meters away from Jagannath temple puri)

Chilika Lake (Take a early morning boat ride to the lake and experience the beauty)

 

[hit&run]

The sun starts its day after gaining reflection from my Holiest Golden roof.
People say i am beautiful like flower Rose.
I feed billions by my nourishing grains.
I am looking into their eyes directly.
They are afraid to invade through my borders.
I am the arm and sword of India.
I was born with the power of mighty five rivers.
I am the land of saints and soldiers.
I spread joy by my dances and songs.
Many have tried to separate me from my body but i am brave enough to kill them all.
I was cut into two pieces alive but i never lost my identity; i am immortal.

I am Punjab.

Although born and living in lovely Bangalore,but always a Malayali at heart.

What to say about Keralites,the smartest people on the planet,if we were any more smarter we would have needed to find ourselves a new planet.....

Yep. Mallus were on the moon before the Yanks.

Nice Thread...I resides in Gujarat.. so selected Gujarat... but I born in Rajasthan... brought in Bhatinda Punjab and Bhiwani Haryana..... mostly when somebody ask this question I just say " I am an Indian"... and that only counts and matters to me.

I was born in Kanpur, but never stayed there much.
I've lived in Kanpur, Almora, Baageshwar, Ghaziabad, Lucknow, Bangalore and finally Gurgaon.

Well, about Gurgaon, you would notice the following things :

1) Most high-fi infrastructure, in terms of roads flyovers etc.
2) The coolest looking buildings. All glass. Don't know what a Richter 7 earthquake will do to the city.
3) The city is so full of shopping malls that even the people are bored of them.
4) Absolutely no natural beauty of any sort.

I'll post some pictures in the next post.
