There are some distinct behavioural traits that are common to people living in the country, and in the subcontinent.

As if to make us all nostalgic and to make us realise how desi we truly are, chef Kunal Kapur prepared a score card comprising 10 scenarios wherein we may have behaved like the quintessential Indians we are.
Ten points for each of these criteria; let us see how much you score!
