joanet, yes, when he became famous around here some decades ago (I think it was Midnight's Children 1981 - a book I highly recommend) we wondered if it is रश्डि oder रूश्डि - one never knows with the English transliterations, ;-). Anyway, I do portraits of friends and family but I do not post them - I want them to be still friends and family, ;-) - but I took the opportunity last week in Paris to take photos of all the great street perfomers and street artists (and since Sean had his tea break ;-)) This guy was playing the violin in the vicinity of the famous Place du Tertre.
Ahmed Salman Rushdie (अह्मेड् सल्मन् रश्डि)...
