Firstly lets tackle the laid back tag. The
only reason for people being confused about calling Bangalore a town or a city, is because
it’s in reality a global village. What with temples selling incense sticks against
computerized bills, sprawling golf courses that cater to the space-starved Japanese
tourist on weekends, and software moguls making it the silicon bazaar of India. Catering
to the cosmopolitan Bangaloreans are restaurants dishing out everything from Mexican to
Polynesian fare, the environment plays a suporting role with a cool, sunny skyline that
encompasses satellite-dish studded terraces, flowering trees and traditional domes in one
glance.
This ‘Little Bit of England in India’ catalysed by a brand invasion of sorts
from all over, has acquired a make-shift personality that incorporates everything like a
sponge. |
