Nothing like sweet cloying milk tea or Chai after a rainy day in the open.
{Strange Brew at a dingy chai shop at the roadhead in Mana Village above the shrine of Badrinath, Uttarakhand.}
What is a Chai Ki Dukaan which does not have chai ki chuskies from all over ! So this is a start of a series of pictures that will have chai ki photu that I come across
Special thanks to Apurva for allowing me to blog this ! and the thought of having a series like this comes from a fellow blogger and a brilliant photographer Archana

# Ankit...
ReplyDeletebro the title is not to be taken literally...
Chai Ki dukaan is a place where people sit talk discuss and that is what my thought was when I gave it this name... It was not supposed to dedicated to Chai or Anything :)... However I feel that the name should be justified ( which I think you were looking forward to ) and hence this initiative :)
# Subbu..

jaldi..
# Deepu...
