What does "something colorful between the eyes" of Indian means? I see in some movies that Indian give the same to tourist. What is it anyway? And what does the certain color mean?
I think it may refer to that bead or red mark they have on their foreheads? Maybe I am wrong - Who knows!
It's called a 'tilak' in Hindi. 'Kumkumam' in Tamil. It's nothing but vermilion powder. It's a tradition in Hinduism. It's done as a mark of respect for tourists.
It's Called "Bindi" , "Tilak" .. In Gujarati it's "Challo" .. You can find more information from this:-> w w w.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bindi_(decoration)
It is applied on the forehead in between the eyes (tilak, kumkum, bindi or by whatever name it is called ) which is used not only as a mark of respect (both for male and female) but also adds to the beauty of the girls
