The pavement opposite Kalamandira has a new lure. For those who are familiar with this area know that the vendors on this footpath have been here almost forever, exhibiting a wide range of matkas (clay pots), ceramic pots and statues of Indian Gods and Goddesses for sale. On any given day, it’s quite common to see people alighting from their vehicles and haggling with these vendors to get a good price on their goods. The purchased goods are usually colourful pots and gardening knick-knacks. But in the last three months, there has been a new commodity that has been capturing the interest of pedestrians, motorists and other road users. The new addition is that of a stunning stuffed goat and deer-lookalikes. Now before dismissing this story on account of boring you with stories of stuffed toys, take a look at the pictures. These stuffed items look like real animals grazing happily on a footpath.
