Bura na maano... Belated Holi hai!!

Known journalist urvish kothari has mentioned couple of funny/strange signboards in his blog.so interesting is the topic that it reminded me many such innovative boards.

When you get off the train at lucknow station,you are welcomed with a line spoken sweetly from the loudspeaker: MUSKURAIYE... KI AAP LUCKNOW ME HAI
a nice way,really,to greet a person!
Couple of years back,once i was in the ghatlodia area of ahmedabad and i happened to read boards hung on almost every lamppost:
MUSKURAIYE... KI AAP GHATLODIA ME HAI

come on,ghatlodia! Give me at least one reason to do so after reaching you. Lucknow has plenty.

I got a reason to smile when i read a line written just at the entrance of a footwear shop at vallabh vidhyanagar: KEEP YOUR FOOTWEAR OUT
Respect the pair that earns you money, honey!

There's a garment shop in passport office area of ahmedabad:
THATHAARO
...thaat maath nu thekaanu

superb expression from pure desi dialect which looks close to anybody who's a gujarati.

There'r people who just slap on the face of education system with the name of the shop he owns.in khedbrahma (dist.sabarkantha), there's a pan shop (galla) near bus station:
M.A.B.Ed PAN CENTRE

baxi has expressed his liking for the word 'nest' for a home's name after reading it on z.bhutto's bungalow on mumbai sea.gulzar's bungalow has plate outside it: BOSKIANA
Bosky is his daughter. Gandhi picked a group of words from Stuti of Sri Ram (sri ram chandra krupalu bhajaman...) and named his one of the ashrams as HRADAYKUNJ

Kumar Sanu literary became a name in music world of boliwood after unimaginable success of 'Aashiqui'.he bought a bungalow in mumbai and its name was AASHIQUI.
What can be the name of modi's bungalow that he'll buy after getting retired from active politics? No prize for guessing the name which is 'GODHRA'

Urvish kothari has mentioned MADHYAM VARG SOCIETY in ahmedabad.there's SHRAMJIVI SOCIETY on vidyanagar-karamsad road.what could be the name of the same society if there lives mla-s and ministers of gujarat?then it'd be BESHARMJIVI SOCIETY

don't take it otherwise respected ministers and mla sahebs kyu ki
BURA NA MAANO (aap logo ki vajah se yaha har roj) HOLI HAI!!!

  1. કિરણ, બહુ સરસ વિષય પકડ્યો! અમુક ઘરનું નામ ઉદગારસૂચક હોય છે, જેમ કે 'હાશ'. આ વાંચીને મને કાયમ થાય કે ઘર બનાવતાં તેની જે દશા થઇ હશે તે જોતાં 'ઢૂસ' નામ રાખવું જોઇએ. એવું જ 'નેસ્ટ'નું. ઘણા 'માળો'નામ પણ રાખે છે. ક્યાંય 'ગુફા','બખોલ' કે 'દર' નામ જોયું નથી. પતિપત્ની અને સંતાનના પ્રથમાક્ષરોથી બનાવાતા અર્થહીન નામોની વાત કરવા જેવી જ નથી.
