Minor made to serve liquor at Maharaja of Mysore Srikanta Datta Wodeyar's birthday at the Bangalore Palace on Sunday

The palace was lit up and celebrations went on like there was no tomorrow. In keeping with time-honoured tradition, the maharaja of Mysore, Srikanta Datta Wodeyar, celebrated his 57th birthday with pomp and pageantry at his Bangalore palace on Sunday night.

Ramp on fire

Sassy models sashayed down the ramp, under Prasad Bidapa's directions in silk finery designed by the royal designer. All, in short, was well, except for the wine section at the bar counter, which was managed by a 17-year-old boy, much against the law that clearly states that minors cannot serve alcohol or work as bartenders.
