Pancher Shop


Namooru Bengalooru is a quirky place. While the roads and traffic are a woebegone issue, there are some amusing things one finds while travelling. Ever noticed these kind of signboards? I saw this one somewhere near Kengeri last week, I have never found one with the correct spelling until now. I call this Kannadizing English. Sakath alla :-D

  2. You can safely call it Indianizing the spelling. In Delhi too they have "Pancher" displayed on their boards - both in Hindi and in English :D
