Krishna with the moustache!!!
Today I became a comedian for no mistake of mine! Someone asked me the meaning of my name. I started describing the triplicane temple god - venkatakrishna and why he is "venkata"krishna and on the way i mentioned - "we have a temple in triplicane where krishna is depicted with a moustache just after mahabharatha war". Everyone started making comments like mebbe due to war he didnt find time to shave, etc and started laughing!!! The truth is Krishna, bacause he was a charioteer to Arjuna, grew a moush (which is typical of charioteers at that time) during the war and the lore is that Krishna gave darshan to Bhaktas in Triplicane just after the war. For more details on the triplicane temple, refer to this link.
