Lil bit occupied with my work so couldn't write more.
Anyways, two days back I again visited country side. And then I met a person and his hair touching his feet... so long. Reason why he does not use to get a hair cut was very strange. He told me whenever he got a hair cut something teribble happened. Like once when he had his hair cut, he lost his wife. He just has his only son with him and best part is that he does everything to ensure that his son should get proper education.
Next I moved my ride to a place called 'Sahnewal' This is film star Dharmendra's village. I saw his village and his school too. It was so very beautiful. In the same village I got an opportunity to behold a beautiful scene. It was like this...A field filled with green crops and on the other end a train moving slowly. It was just like some bollywood location in countryside. I totally enjoyed it and got some snaps too.

My visit to Punjab
4 days before I reached Ludhiana, Punjab. Very interestingly I am here working on an assignment pre-requisite of which is proper understanding of Ludhiana.
This is the place which I always wanted to visit. Basic reason is that I loved the image of Punjab which is being portrayed by bollywood. I mean those green fields, rich food, glass filled with lassi etc. etc. And of course, Punjabi beauties also add to the list.
The day I reached, I started loving this place. Their charming accent with frequently used phrases like 'Hanji', 'Henga' etc. Totally exhausted, I reached my hotel located very close to the bus stand.
As soon as I checked in, I ordered for Lunch rather late lunch at 4:00 pm. And soon after having my bath, I started having my lunch or late lunch. It was 'Veg Biryani' and it was incredibly awesome...sach mein swaad aa gaya. Same night, we went for dinner and picked a dhaba to taste the real punjab instead of any sophisticated restaurant lacking totally in 'Desipan'. We ordered some paranthas and curries. I observed that every thing was full of butter and the food itself looked so rich and I was so overjoyed that I told my two team members who were accompanying me for the dinner that I wish to own a house in Punjab so that I can enjoy such awesome food all the time.
Next day another thing which caught my attention was a 'Limo'. Yes, a Limousine. I was amazed at that moment. But within next two days , I understood that it was matter of surprise for me only and not for Punjabis as in these two days I discovered few more Limos running here and there. That day; to be precise, that evening, I discovered a very delicious stuff. It was so called ' Burger Noodles' and as the name suggests, a bun stuffed with spicy noodles, aloo tikki and sauce.
Next day, during my working session, I visited Hero Cycles Industries, Monte Carlo unit, the brands which we listen since the time we were born. Even though it was an official visit but I loved being to these places. Office of Monte Carlo was so eye-catching that interiors could easily be compared to that of a mall.
Finally, today I got an opportunity to visit country side of ludhiana. So serene, so green. Saw mud houses surrounded by green fields. Surprisingly I saw a mud-house with a dish-tv connection. Also there were some bunglows or kothis which reflected the wealth of the people in the region.
By the evening I found that there was a myth ..... Oh!!!! Sorry!! It is already 2:13 am. Going to sleep. Will continue tomorrow straight from this point. Gudnite
