If you search in google for amanot shah lungi; BC tops the list! You see, the folks at amanot shah are really smart. Their ad has worked like a magic; we are talking about it and they are getting google hits! Amazing. I wonder if they designed the ad wearing lungi; it would prove once and for all that wearing lungi makes you smart! lol

I does. I went to my PhD Convocation in a lungi. Under the gown of course. But still. That was probably the first time I wore a lungi for a considerable amount of time.

I never stopped wearing lungi. I am not brave like some to wear it outside, although I enjoyed the sun in our backyard wearing লুঙ্গী-পাঞ্জাবী...

Ban slapped on lungi clad rickshaw-pullers
A lungi clad rickshaw-puller stopped at the entry of Baridhara in the capital yesterday. Security workers do not let rickshaw-pullers in lungi into the posh neighbourhood following instructions from the association of Baridhara home owners. Photo: Star
Rickshaw-pullers in traditional Bangalee outfit, lungi, are barred from entering the capital’s Baridhara, one of the country’s most posh neighbourhoods where diplomats and affluent people live.
Baridhara home owners’ association, Baridhara Society, has instructed security personnel not to let in rickshaw-pullers in lungi, requiring them to be in trousers to enter Baridhara, particularly Block K, said security men and local commuters.
As The Daily Star correspondent arrived at the lakeside entry of Baridhara at 11:45am yesterday, he found that the security man on duty Abdul Kader had stopped a rickshaw- puller for wearing lungi and forced the two passengers on board to get down.
One of the passengers, Nasir Uddin Ahmed, who is manager of a private company in Baridhara, said, “Dictating a person’s clothing is an infringement upon an individual’s personal liberty and right.”Meanwhile, Kader intercepted several more rickshaw-pullers but let in a score of others in lungi, as the passengers defied his instruction.
A good many rickshaw-pullers were found entering the neighbourhood in trousers without facing any hassle.Talking to The Daily Star, Kader said, “The society issued the instruction about two months back.”
The society president Firoz Hasan said, “We just wanted the rickshaw- pullers to put on decent clothes and did not issue any ban on lungi.” But barring rickshaw-pullers in lungi might have occurred in one or two cases, he said. “We will look into it.”
Adilur Rahman Khan, secretary of the rights group Odhikar, said such restrictions amount to a violation of cultural, constitutional and human rights of an individual.
There are nearly 500 houses of which around 130 are occupied by diplomatic missions in Baridhara K Block between Progoti Sarani and Baridhara Lake, with Kalachandpur to the north and Mariam Tower to the south.

Well, the Baridhara Society can start donating pants to Rickshawalas if they have such a problem with it.

Lungi Actually should be banned all public use, specially at work.  Money wise it's not cheaper than other dresses. Trousers will make people more efficient at work.... Use Lungi at home only...

This was my vote...."Kasa maro, dab-narkel paro." 1 2.22% ....
Miah apni poll-er thread khulechen kintu vote debar por karo naam dekha jai naa orokom ekti bhua poll khulechen, poll-ter 50% value instantly drop kore gechey, ei etogula posters vote dieche, kintoo ke ki dilo kichu bojha jacchey naa....
For instance, look at this..."Lungi? Skirts? So gayish!!" 1 2.22% ...who is this? one person voted, had to be a gay brother this one, or else wouldn't have said so! See, if you had an expose your name voting poll thread, we would have known by know, who is this nabalok person, simon, gopal, nadim, naimul, ajfar, purbasha or orpheus? Or diluruba?
