Nenu usually ilaanti rants/controversial posts assala veyyanu... Alaanti posts ki reply kooda ivvanu, cuz evari emotions debba tintaayo ani. But, eeroju and monna incident toh, I felt bad.

Memu Bangalore lo unnappudu, I used to think - endi raa veellaki ee baasha pichhi ani. Bangalore has become an IT hub before Hyderabad and probably they've seen what I've witnessed a few days back and eeroju.

Incident 1: Maa office lo okadu untaadu.. vaalla mother tongue is some language close to Hindi and he keeps talking to everyone in Hindi, but explains his home address to the courier guys in Telugu!! Nenu ookey cheptaa unte, Telugu lo maatlaadu, ikkada andaram Telugu vaallam, nee okkadi kosam memu baasha marchamu ani.. the other day he was talking to a girl in Hindi where she can't understand a word of Hindi.. ichhukunna vaadiki. Naaku kopam usually raadu, but vachhindi.

Incident 2: Eeroju lunch ki baitaki vellaam and daarlo I was telling my wifey about that incident ☝🏻

Restaurant (proper Telugu restaurant) ki vellaaka, order tiskuney vaadu Hindi.. I told him, nuv Telugu lo maatlaadu or Telugu vachhina vaalllani pampu.. vaadu fataak ani Telugu lo reply ichhaadu.

Lunch chestunnantha sepu naa thoughts: Evado edo state nunchi vastey, vaadi kosam manam adjust avvaala?? Bratukuteruvu kosam vachhina vaadi baasha manam nerchukoni, vaadini oka comfort zone lo pettaala?? Asala nenu call ettagaaney - haa bhayya bolo ani enduku antaanu?? I'm the boss of the bloody organization and nenu cheppinaa kooda vaadu vinadam ledu and Hindi loney maatlaadutunnaadu ante, manam entha space ichhesaam?

Bangalore lo nenu chusindi correct eh emo.. vaalla kopam lonchi puttina baasha bhakti emo.. ala chaala thoughts vachhai.

What's your views people?

Unta mari.. hope you all are having a great Saturday evening.. stay blessed and spread love 💕

A good old friend of mine called me the other day saying that he's coming to Hyderabad. He's a malayali guy but worked with me for 4-5 years back in the 2010 period. We are meeting after a good 10 years and he wanted me to cook Tomato pappu (cuz back then that's the only item that I used to cook nicely).. and to surprise him, I made a little more.

Tomato pappu, Alu fry, Chicken fry and prawns iguru..

His face was ☺️ after seeing all these items..

Unta mari.. hope you all are having a good time... Byeee 🫶🏻

Good evening Peeps 🌄

I'm from a town called Khammam and ee madhya ne Khammam ki kooda oka Sub undi ani telisindi.. adi brouse chestaa unte, I came across these cute Crochets..

I spoke the Maker over DMs and was shocked to know that Maker stays close to my house, and coincidentally I was going to a tailor who's shop is diagonally opposite to Maker's house. The world is a small place hah 😀

After a couple of days, I picked up these cuties.. maa Chinnodiki, wifey ki and naaku ee cutie pig chaala nachhindi.. minion vaadu own cheskunnaadu, tortoise wifey own cheskundi.. overall gaa baagunnai..

Thank you u/Electronic_Maize_213 for such a beautiful crochets 🫶🏻

As mentioned in the note, they definitely brought a smile on our faces and they will.

​

1. Choose friends who feel like home.

Not everyone deserves access to your heart. Choose friends who make you feel safe, seen, and respected. Not drained or pressured.

2. One small habit can change your whole future.

Addictions don't start big, they start as tiny choices. Learn to say NO when something doesn't feel right. Protect your mind, your time, your body.

3. Talent opens the door, but discipline keeps you there.

You don't need to be the smartest or the best. Show up. Be consistent. Work harder than your excuses, that's what sets you apart.

4. Money is freedom, start early.

Save before you spend. Learn to control your money so it never controls your life. Your future self will thank you.

5. Your life is shaped by what you do when no one is watching.

Integrity is your biggest strength. Do the right thing because it makes you proud, not because someone is judging.

The world may not always notice your character, but your soul always will.

Hope you all are having a good time... Stay blessed and spread love 💕

Been busy since morning in planning and building this bird bath for my little winged wonders. They come every morning to our balcony and chirp as if they are asking for some food.. Bird feed vestaa, tinesi, water taagesi vellipotaai.. malla vastaai and the cycle repeats. Aithey, chaala days nunchi ee fountain thought undey.. eeroju chesesaa.

Good Day Fam..

After this (https://www.reddit.com/r/MaaOoriVanta/s/qiTSaB78Qw), I made bagara rice, chicken curry, chicken liver fry, egg tomato curry, and pappu chaaru.

I asked Perplexity to write a funny write-up about not giving a holiday to me.. here is what it gave:

No Holidays for the Chef!

Don't give him a holiday... otherwise he'll cook and cook and cook!

Picture this: one free day turns into a kitchen apocalypse. Pots bubbling like volcanoes, spices flying like confetti at a wedding, and the fridge raided cleaner than a cyclone aftermath. By evening, you'll have enough biryani, curries, and mystery masalas to feed the entire neighborhood, and he'll still be chopping onions at midnight, grinning like he just won MasterChef. Save your waistline, folks.

Holidays = his excuse for a non-stop cooking marathon. Lock the pantry and run! 😂

Adi story.. now it's time to watch the Ice Age movie 🍿

Good Morning Fam 🌞

Eeroju Labour Day sandarbham gaa mana lo chaala mandiki selavu (anukuntunna) kadaa?? What's cooking?

Last week as a part of our Malaysia trip, we visited Genting Highlands.. Akkada World's largest hotel (The First World Hotel, 36 floors and 7,351 rooms) lo one night stay chesaam, on the 19th floor. It was at 8,000 feet from the sea level, we were literally above the clouds annamaata...

Lemme know ela undo..

Unta mari 😊

I came across this perfume post in this sub, a long time ago.

I happened to go to Malaysia for a family vacation, and saw this store in one of the shopping malls in Kuala Lumpur.

When I picked this one, I was told this perfume is unisex (but the smell is really quite feminine). I loved using it though. It is a floral fruity fragrance, and it stayed on me for close to 5+ hours.

Any views?

Sarigga 7 days (8 anochhu) ayyindi, kammagaa vanta cheskoni thini.

Nothing against the food habits of anyone, but mana food verey rakam abba. Especially, neesu vaasnalu undavu.. ahh Malaysia lo everything was good.. discipline, cleanliness, infra, etc.. but food was - "naa valla kaadu inka" 😂

Ekkada poina chepala vaasana or half cooked chicken vaasana.. apara maamsaahaari (pure non-vegetarian) aina naakey ala unte, paapam vegetarians ki torture (wifey faced it) 🙄

Night vachhaam.. poddunna lechi, idly tinesi, tamata pappu and alu fry (in airfryer) chesaa.. satisfaction ante idi 😍

Hope you all are having a good day.. unta mari.. byeee 🫶🏼

Good Morning Peeps 🌞

I've been a little quiet these days cuz we went for a trip to Malaysia.. vastu vastu konni muchhatlu mosukochha.. let's go...

Pedda grand expectations em lekundey, except the curiosity that comes with stepping into a new place. What surprised me first was not the skyscrapers or the food, but the quiet orderliness of everything around.

Even the roadside eateries looked cared for, as if cleanliness there was not an act of display but a habit deeply rooted in daily life. Streets stayed tidy, corners were respected (you know what I mean 😉), and public spaces seemed to carry a silent rule - "leave no mess behind"

Cleanliness did not feel occasional in Malaysia, it felt ordinary. Reason?

Chetta vesina, mee inti mundu chetta unna, mee chuttu pakkala drainage block aina, simple gaa 3,000 ringgits (71,516 rupees) fine vesi, social service kooda cheyistaaru anta..

As I moved from palce to place, I kept comparing what I saw with the places I had left behind. I wondered how different life would look if such discipline became a common practice everywhere (in India?). Not perfection, not some impossible dream, just enough awareness to stop littering, enough responsibility to value shared spaces.

A simple yet powerful lesson - clean environment begins with individual behavior. Laws may help, fines may discourage wrongdoing, and governments may argue, but real change starts when people decide that their surroundings deserve respect.

By the end of the trip, oka hope that manam kooda chakkagaa antha neat gaa unte entha baaguntado ani.. Not overnight, not magically, but steadily.. one person, one street, one habit at a time.
