Random Clicks - Indore

Driving through Indore and nearby places, meeting relatives and going to a couple of tourist spots, it was the little things, here and there, that fascinated me more.


Sunbathing clothes... A Dhobi Ghaat.

In the heat, the three earthern pots with taps fitted on them. Black clay earthern pots, I found, are very common in Indore.

Passed by a wedding procession. The Sehra (headdress) of the groom especially caught my attention - quite different from the ones I am used to seeing at Punjabi weddings. I was told that weddings there are, traditionally, a week long process. It involves all the relatives going together to one another's house for meals each day.

'Madhushalas' (Juice Centres) are a very common sites. They serves juices and shakes. Sugarcane Juice is a favourite.

We drove a kilometers away from Indore to go to Gurudwara Betma Sahib. Some photographs from around there.

There are many roadside stalls and shops of bats in certain areas of Indore. They have been around for very long. A dyanmic local industry...
