The Great Indian Salesman :)

The thought of a sales man is always that of one who has a nice blue / white / yellow shirt, with nice trouser, tie tied around and a (un) shiny shoe. The one who could speak english fluently and would try to impress you with the array of products or services he would like to sell.

Well all that got shattered when i met this humble man, TDH (Tall, Dark & Handsome ;)) bare chested in a strange looking loin cloth, head hair might not have been cleaned for ages, shiny brown teeth, core & pure Tamil rattling out (English, what english!!!) but busily selling "catapult" and "peacock feathers", early in the morning at the Pondicherry beach. And rest assured, he was doing good for his living..

Could not resist shooting him.

Awesome personality and a perception shattered :)
