Al the photo journos were standing alert , ready to get the best shot of these cute poster boys at the Bandra Station Idd Namaz..

This was the ultimate goal, and later the Idd Hugging picture , without the Idd Hugging picture Idd Mubarak is totally incomplete.

This may be an editorial demand so I really dont blame the journos directing the kids to hug themselves.

On Parsi New Year day its a kiddy picture at Watcha Agiary at Fountain..

I mean cant these guys for once in their lives come up with something new and path breaking..

hits you in the guts
shot by celebrity mutts

left behind slippers
at a fire site or an accident
shot by crazy nuts
with sleek high end cameras
with phallic lenses that jut
no 1 newspapers
a poor picture it cuts
adding to glitz and glut
