10 Ways to Annoy a 'Madrasi' (That's One Way) in 60 Seconds

How do I annoy thee, oh person from the south of India? Let me count the ways.

This hilarious YouTube video, uploaded yesterday by comedy group Enna Da Rascalas, shows you how to risk life and limb by annoying 'a person from Madras' in just 60 seconds, should you so want.

Directed by Mathivanan Rajendran and Bhargav Prasad and starring Kiran Naig, the video dismantles some of the stereotypes that South Indians often find themselves slotted into.

Watch the video here:



The rules are simple - don't ever, ever eat a dosa with a fork and a knife; don't scrape the froth off your filter coffee; if you're eating off a banana leaf, you better do it right; if you're walking into in a South Indian home, watch your step; learn how to pronounce words with 'Zh' in them.

And for Rajinikanth's sake, don't drink green tea while you're reading The Hindu.

On the subject of Rajinikanth, he is a notable absence from the list of 10 things not to do - an error of omission that will resonate with anybody who has a South Indian friend and knows that the mere hint of an anti-Thalaiva suggestion is the easiest way to destroy that friendship, forever.
