Choki Dhani - Chennai Bites 2


Top post on IndiBlogger.in, the community of Indian Bloggers
When I watched 'Lamhe' in my school days,I instantly fell in love with Rajasthan ..My dream was to see a live performance of any song like "Morni bagama bole aadhi raath ma"..I know..I know..its too much to expect Sridevi dancing there :P..Visiting Jaisalmer was yet my unfulfilled dream..But when we get to know about Choki Dhani,we planned to go there in a weekend..And found that place even more interesting than we expected...There you can see everything related to Rajasthani culture except for the sandy deserts..It was like visiting a typical Rajasthani village..The people there were in their traditional attire..At dinner they served traditional dishes with nearly 15-18 varieties of Rajasthani cuisine...It was a truely nice experience..If you are living in Chennai,then Its a must visit for you..

Welcoming with Tika..

What lovely pictures Nagini with such superb clarity...steady hands huh?....I have never been to chowki dhani but my family in Mumbai have been and they have raved a lot. Of course the picture they had wasn't any close o being lucrative as yours :)....seems like a wonderful experience for people who want experience culture and also a place for foodies..BTW, Lamhe is still my fav love story :)
