OK so i am a mallu...Malayali to be precise (we hate the mallu tag btw :-/)....I wanted to share the typical malayali household stories with all my readers....I am sure most of you will relate with my posts on mallugiri and enjoy reading them!!!!
The first episode :D The typical malayali amma :) (senti one ok??)
Malayalis are one of the rare kind who insist on calling everybody with a veedu peru (household name) which will be appropriate with your characteristics when you were a 5 year old kid. Baby, babu, amini, paape(again means baby), vaave(AGAIN means baby), kutty(AGAIN means kid), kanna (krishna was called kanna by yashoda maiyya) and the list goes on and on. Trust me you can't pull off these names when you are middle aged. But amma will call you baby in front of everyone...including your own babies :-/ Embarrassing no?
Amma has the right to feed you....ALWAYS!!!!....Amma will not hesitate to feed u curd rice when u say you are not hungry no matter what age you are :) Amma will insist you take science after 10th.....doctor engineer have real jobs no??? or anything to do with a saaftware (mallus take a hint :D)....
Amma will make sure your idli gobbling counter never goes down and it is a matter of huge concern if it comes down from 18 to 15....prestige issue if u lose the puppy fat....u look like a stick is her usual complain :)
Amma will see all the shows on asianet and surya tv....you can watch it with if you love her :P
She is a big fan of mohanlal and has seen achuvinte amma ( a senti mallu movie) minimum 5 times.....
No matter what, a malayali amma can never be strict.....she may be a teacher, a nurse, principle, government employee or a corporate head honcho....excessive pampering comes to her naturally which makes most of the kerlaites mom devotees :)
