LOCKDOWN SPECIAL: 21 Baisa Things

It's high time that our homegirls had a meme post of their own.


1. Ever wondered who invented sipping vodka/whiskey pretending it was lemonade/cola?




2. Getting good grades, a career and a suitable match aren't the only things that we need to tackle... *drum rolls please*... the padla :P



3. Weddings don't just mean decorative saris or anarkalis- they mean a poshaak, rakhri, mehri, lead-heavy earrings and a precise order of bangles. And we do it LIKE A BOSS.



4. Nose-pins are customary, not just a trend that Madonna started (yeah, that too ;) )




5. We don't friend-zone unsuitable Banas, we bhai-zone them.



6. Speaking of whom- Yes, we get it, many Banas had a tough time with high school math and don't always graduate in their first shot... BUT

15. If you thought your world was small, think again. We're talking about Rajput communities here.



16. Did namaste's, sasriyakal's and vanakkam's become too mainstream?



17. Don't bombard us with stereotypes... we might just surprise you.




18. Not all of us studied feminism... but we take our basics very seriously.



19. Speaking of love, we can be die hard romantics. Testimony?



20. We're as charming, witty and fun as our infamous brethren, but have a higher tolerance of alcohol and a much, better sense of humour.



21. And lastly, we put 21 reasons instead of 20, because
