Not Modi kurta, should have sported the Modi pagadi, dammit!
Thumbs up, taste the thunder... and the rain
It's Swacch Bharat, Barack! Don't you dare stick that gum anywhere.
Isn't my wifey more stylish?
And they are at it again, sighs Mrs O.
Oh no! This rain. Wonder how my hair looks.
Yipee! The Gujarat tableau is here!!!
Is it a bird... no it's a plane. Michelle tries to catch a glimpse of the flypast.
Why so serious?
