Talaash! Which part of Mumbai do you want to see?

Unlike autorikshaws in other cities or even Thane, Mumbai's autos are rarely personalised by the drivers. Is it because most of then are not owner drivers?

But luckily for us, there a quite a few Rikshaws with interesting stickers and messages, like this one. This one resembles the standard style in Thane, where the message is on the front windscreen.

But it's in Bangalore, where Bhaijaan is buried and had a close link, that the messages are among the most interesting. Check out this blog that documents messages on Bangalore autos and 'vehicals'. Gaadi Slogans.

Trivia: Bajaj autos on Central American roads are called 'Mosquitos' because of the way they are driven and the noise they make.
