New Delhi:
Move aside South Park, there's a
desi-er (and some would say funnier) cartoon in town. Artist
Dalbir Singh picks up regular experiences of the Sikh guy (or gal) next door, adds a pinch of salt and lots of
tadka to it and presents a dish that makes you long for more.
Started as a way to debunk myths about Sardars, especially in a post 9-11 world, the artist uses humour to invite people into a Sikh household. Witty and sarcastic, these cartoons will make you laugh out loud. We pick some of the best ones.
1. Why you so cruel, Murphy's Law?
2. Swag like this has not been seen
3. And you thought men don't need a process to get ready. Talk about putting things like
thatha,
fifty,
fixo and five yard turban together.
4. But no one complains when this helps to build a conversation with the uninitiated hot girl in the bar. "Oh my God! I like totally love your fuchsia turban!"
5. Because it's food that makes a Sardar's world go round
6. And sometimes not so much...
7. And other times when the food makes others run in circles, or well, gives you the runs...
8. Canada should be made the capital of Punjab. We say, just do it.
9. And that's how you spot a
vilayton-return
10. Chapter 2:
Ulte hath da chappair; Chapter 3: Fear of God infused with melodrama like "
haayo rabba" and "
tennu rabb da vasta"
11. What is in a name? A few prefixes, some suffixes and basically just any word that can end with a 'y'
12. If we had a Canadian Dollar for every time this happened...
13.
Te aye hondi hai Salfie...
