Indian Wedding in New Jersey - Cultural Spelunking



A "Gora" perspective on his first North-Indian style wedding in Jersey. By Cartoon-Journalist, David Gillette. 

David Gillette does not resort to acting overly smart about the names of the dances or the events that took place, but revels in what he calls "cultural spelunking". The wedding surely had an itinerary with phonetically spelled events, but he did not try to pronounce them which would have bastardized the pronunciations and ruined this piece.

It's cute and fun. Enjoy!

Thanks for linking to my post! A correction though- My last name is spelled Gandhi.

Cheers,

Sorry about misspelling your name. It has been corrected. Great Blog by the way.
