I was in Pune 2 weeks ago with my (non-Indian) gf. She quickly found out a practical way of getting rid of the constant requests for selfies with her: just ask them for 50 rupees per photo. Works great!

- saiya-jin 8y agoYeah, and if you travel as a couple, some guys will want to have a group photo with both of you, but attempt to move you a bit out of picture so that only your partner and the guy are taken. I presume this adds some bragging rights among peers. It's funny, but one never knows when fun stops, especially in crowd of 10 local teens who are probably sexually frustrated (=horny) and overflowing with testosterone.
- avaika 8y agoUnfortunately, that happens with almost every foreigner in India. Not just girl. I was in Pune with colleagues for a business trip. This is what a walk on the street normally end up with: https://avaika.me/media/cache/05/2d/052d0e5ede3d3a2de448ad659af4fc49.jpg https://avaika.me/media/cache/05/2d/052d0e5ede3d3a2de448ad65... https://avaika.me/media/cache/2b/fc/2bfc29c5af39d91c3ab87c0e3d89f63f.jpg https://avaika.me/media/cache/2b/fc/2bfc29c5af39d91c3ab87c0e... :)
