One of its famous products is Bakarvadi and this year it found its way to Australia. It is nice, provided you don't find any foreign objects inside. Today I tried a northern imitator from Bikano called Bhakhar Badi . Its box proclaims, in typical Indian English (which is often stingy with articles): A Quality product in the great Indian tradition of hospitability (sic), made from best of ingredients, hygienically processed, especially packed for long shelf life and freshness of flavour. It was quite edible, although it had more dough than filling compared to the genuine article from Pune. Check it out. text/html 2007-06-28T10:20:18+01:00 http://www.bharatlink.com.au http://www.bharatlink.com.au/news/latest/zia-hussain.html Zia Hussain is a Pakistani singer who lives in Sydney.

Many Orkut members left a note in her scrapbook via her profile before it was deleted. Over 22,000 messages were left by mourners. Also killed in the same incident was Professor GV Loganathan from India. Our thoughts are also with his family. text/html 2006-10-16T00:00:23+01:00 http://www.bharatlink.com.au http://www.bharatlink.com.au/news/latest/diwali-fair-in-melbourne.html Melbourne, 16 October 2006.
