Off AM Road
Name: Muneer
From: Mangalore
Occupation: Helper at a dry fish trader's godown
In Benglur for 2 years.
Like Bangaloreans, people from Mangalore are multi-lingual. Muneer says that even though his first language is Tulu, he reads and writes in Kannada and can also understand and communicate in Malayalam and Tamil. However, this shy lad seems to be more of a listener than a talker.

Street No 10, A M Road
Retired and still working.
Live fast, die young. That's what makes the lives of race drivers and celebrity racehorses interesting. But if you are a racehorse from Benglur, you live a pampered life for a while, and then you spend the rest of your life pulling cardboard chariots and ferrying fat grooms to their weddings. That's life like Dr Raj once sang: Badukkidu jataka bandi.
And yes, you still own fancy names like Rani (above) and Toofaan (below).
