At the Indian clothes' shop.
Dupattas or chunnis - Indian 2 m long scarves that go as a set with suits, lahengas (long skirts) and jeans. In summer ir when riding a motorbike girls like to wrap them on their faces to protect their skins from sun-tan and dust. To protect from sun-tan they sometimes also wear long gloves.
Sellers outside their kurta shops in the street, staring at me taking their photo and saying some comments: "Show me the photo. Was it good?" (Comments are popular in India)
