Malaika Arora is half Mallu Christian.

I don't think she can sit quite so high on that list.

just to correct tess and desichic, malaika arora is actually fully mallu...her dad was also mallu...but then her mother married an arora...and malaika also took on her step-dad's surname....so she is as syrian christian mallu as sidin himself....and amrita arora is her half-sister...

i have no verifiable sources for the above information...but the person who told me this, said it with great conviction....

I just loved the 'bathe' bit about the mallu weddings ..decades back i had a malayalee roommate who would arrive from Kerala in the middle of the night and promptly take a cold 'head bath'..i also went to her wedding..wake up, bathe, see wedding(dont be even a minute late or you might miss it) lunch, get on the train, go back home :-)

Great Post. A few inputs about weddings in UP:

In UP the weddings are a bit less energetic on the Sangeet part, but you get to see (and hear) a lot of booming guns during the Barat. All the near and distant uncles take out their rusting dunalis or rifles and oil them for the whole day, so that they are fighting fit during the night of the wedding!

And then, as the Barat proceeds towards its destination, all these bravehearts take position, and start shooting away to glory. Mostly they are aiming towards the sky, but after a few shots of whisky/rum or whatever, they really don't care which way the direction of their dunali is! The Groom (much to my horrer) is perched up on a horse, right at the front of the procession, with stray bullets whistling away all around him. But ofcourse, he is not really bothered as he is too petrified sitting on the mare and wishing that the Bandwalas in front do not blow the trumpet so hard and so near to his stead!
