You gotta love the ads in India






Here's a couple from Atul Kasbekar's (Indian photographer) website via sepiamutiny.com featuring Javed Jaffery (Indian comic) dressed up as stereotypical residents of the neighborhoods.

For those less informed, the Colaba guy is what bawas (aka Parsees) traditionally wear.
The Dalal Street is what typical Gujjus look like.
