About this episode: Growing up Punjabi - Well Sardaron ke bachche (Sikh kids) are in a league of their own. You’d see what I mean if you look around you - in ads and lines that have been made famous in advertisements and/ or movies by a Surdy or Punjabi kid. I’m here to tell you stories from my childhood in a Surdy-Punjabi household, surrounded by the craziness that only Punjabis can bring to any situation. It’s no wonder all three of us siblings have been labelled “dramebaaz” (melodramatic), with my nearly-seven-year-old niece following merrily in the footsteps of her very Sikh father and Punjabi mother. This is a tribute to all the mad little Surdy bachchas I grew up with! You guys rock.
