Opposites don't attract

Bhopal offers some respite from the ususal UP-Punjab setting though the lingo � hamau (us), tumau (you), pin (but) � takes a while to get used to. What is strange, however, is the way the lyrics lapse into instant Punjabi. So the modhi (gal) in the dialogues turns into kudi in the songs. Out of plac...(more)
