A nice rebuttal to a story rocking desiland. mumbai gets labelled as the rudest city - oh sorry diplomatically correct - mumbai is the least polite city.

You can search online for how polite is defined in three questions:
[1] does anyone help you if your file falls down?
[2] does anyone hold the door for you?
[3] does the shopkeeper says thank you?
After living here, the quesitons should be:
[1] have you said hi to your neighbor even once and asked if they were doing ok? (what i have a neighbor?!!)
[2] do you even smile/wish the minimum-wage-worker working for your hoa? (ooh we dont know what their criminal profile maybe)
Talk about smiles plastered for occasions with internal revulsion for doing that action. See all the newspaper photos with chamkeelay batteesi.
