Parsees of India...

They are Parsees...
Sweet and mild mannered

fair skinned and extremely intelligent
fire worshipers Zoroastrians
loves dhanshakh and patrani machchi
dead are kept in the Towers of silence
conservative community with no conversions permitted
Tatas Wadias Godrejs made India progress
Parsee writers shone brightly in India
contributed a lot to the literature
Ardesh Irani is regarded as the father of the Indian cinema
my favourites are Boman Irani, Shiamak Davar and David..
and who can forget Sohrab Modi...
Bachi Karkaria and Jug Suraiya are synonymous with TOI
and can you forget Alisha in Made in India..
Baton baton mein, Pestonji, Khatta meetha or being Cyrus...??
