Delhi Mania

Do i look like i belong to Delhi?? this reminds me of an incident that happened when I was doing my internship with Strides -- a Pharma company fairly large but still you get to know everyone from the liftman to the security guard to the chai vala....
That day I was wearing a Blue shirt and trouser.. I land up in office and the liftman asks me.. "Madam aap Delhi se hai kya?".. i just said "Nahi" and did not bother to ask the reason.. but i kept thinking why he could have asked me such a question.. i dont look like a girl from Delhi.. m not snobbish.. i dont throw attitude.. and m not that hot too..never mind.. i thought that probably the lift guy wanted to just blabber something and thats y he asked..
The day passed and I was leaving office.. we needed to sign the register marking our attendence for the day.. the security guard was a lady.. she asks me "Madam aap Delhi se hai kya?".. I was surprised.. I dint know why did the same question came up again.. so I asked her "Mai aapko Delhi ki lagki hu kya? Ese kyo puch rahe ho?" to which she replied - "Delhi ka log bahut beautiful hota hai.. smart hota hai.. aap beautiful ho na.. " .. I was flattered.. I smiled and said "Thanks"..
I was walking my way home and a lady who used to handle the marketing division for APAC region just stopped by and said she could drop me home.. I accepted and sat in her car.. and guess what... She asks me the same question ??'''?? " Sneh.. so you belong to Delhi".. I was shocked and gave her a surprising look.. and said .. " No.. m not.. but why do u think i belong to Delhi".. to which she said .. "Delhi k logo ka hindi accha hota hai na.. to I just guessed from your accent".. 3 people asking me the same question in the same day and giving different answers was strange..
And i still remember the incident whenever i look at that blue shirt.. :P

Are guys from Delhi better than those from Mumbai??

This post might interest girls more... as its a comparison about "guys".. Delhi Vs Mumbai to bahut suna hoga but Delhi ke munde Vs Mumbai ke chore unique hai ji..
For analysis, NITIE has sufficient amount of guys from Mumbai and Delhi and somehow they posess distict charecterics and hence it inspired me to write this comparison...** these are general chars .. exceptions are always there!!!
1. Guys from Delhi are street smart.. they know how to bribe the traffic police when caught.. they know how to make excuses to their boss, they know how to calculatively bunk classes..
WHile Mumbai guys are executively smart.. they know how to blabber something in english and get away from trouble.. they actually know how to play with words.. they think themselves to be KOOL while the delhi people think themselves to be HOT...
2. A delhi guy will always talk about chandni chowk, chole tikki and the metro rails..
While a mumbai guy will talk about the local train, the paav-bhaji and the beaches..
Whenver Delhi and Mumbai meet.. they cannot resist this argument.. "Tumhara Delhi accha hai ya Aamchi Mumbai.. Delhi ki metro mumbai ki local se jyada acchi hai.. arre.. mumbai jitna traffic nahi jhel paayegi tumhari metro.. Mumbai me jyada pubs hai.. are nahi nahi.. delhi jyada happening hai.. and it goes on and on...."
3. Normally, as i have seen... Mumbai people prefer to take a bus or train as their commute.. while those from delhi like to go by Auto.. Moreover, Delhi guys talk more about bikes, cars etc while this conversation never interests a Mumbaiits..infact many of the mumbai guys dont know how to drive.. but still they will reach the destination..
4. Ahh... about their attitude towards girls... A Delhi guy is more shy as compared to a Mumbaiya... jitne time me Mumbaiya ladki ko pata k juhu beach ghuma layega.. utne time me Delhi guy baat kaise start karni hai vo plan kar raha hoga..am not commenting on the strategy... both strategies could b good if used in proper sense..but a Mumbaiya is a bit more open and communicative as compared to a Delhi one..
Common Guys... Both cities are equally good.. Dont Argue everytime...
These were just my observations.. i dont mean any offence to anybody..exceptions to these rules exist everywhere.. Any more comparisons... feel free to comment!!!
