Things heard while eves dropping on 5 not so beautiful girls while waiting in a queue...
(like it wasn't technically eves dropping...i was just standing in front of them)

Girl 1-this is ur first time here..!?
Girl 2-yeah
Girl1-oh...mine is like some 3rd-4th time..i had been here while i was very young..
Girl3-like u know the story behind this thing..??
Girl4-nope....like u know...!??
Girl5-yeah...like there was this guy..and he fell in love with this girl. The problem was this girl was initially scared after seeing him, but later her dad convinced her to marry him and all.
So finally like this guy's father borrowed money from one more fellow for his son's marriage. So thats y this place came into being.
The rest of the girls in chorus-Oh yeah..now i remember...i was told abt this when i was young.
Girl5-so the moral of the story is it is good to borrow money..!!
The rest of the girls in chorus-ha ha ha ha ha....

And the queue in thirupathi inched forward.....i was trying to ask my grandmother if that story was true.....and i was trying to figure how to keep my panche(dhothi) on my waist for the rest of the time...!!

P.S-i never really got to ask my grandmother....is this story true..!?
P.S.2. The thirupathi laddos are over and please DO NOT ask me for them.
P.S.3 y will 5 girls in all their youth, vigour and vitality come to thirupati on a conducted tour like just like that...!?? (i was dragged by my family...so don't even think of asking me y i was there)

WHAT???!!!! Seriously???!!!! Aiyyo raama!!!

Story IS true btw, namgu ade kathe helidru... the temple was built so he could repay his loan back. Makes no sense though, it's not like he's doing his job very well for us to owe him the money or anything... he doesn't deserve it! It's like our government again, kelsa enu maadalla aadre duddu kitkotaare sumne, adu janarige kelde maadid kelsakkae... yaargu labha antu aagilvala adrinda :P

And I do wonder what five girls were doing there on a conducted tour.

That's the story behind that over hyped place??.. hmm.. i once went to dharmastala and the queue seemed endless and so didn't bother to visit the god, instead slept in the car with the doors open!.. my grandma keeps telling me how god is one day going to punish me for that! sigh! standing in that queue would be the punishment!
