Only a Parsi can write a paean to the Bumla. “A Bombay Duck that never clucks. Eat him fresh or eat him dry; mum and dad they like him fried. Bombay Duck he’s worth a try.” Minocher Kava and his wife Naju composed this and the first Indi-Pop Hit, “Bumbumbumbum Bumbai Meri Hai”. Another hit in 1966, “Evening in Gay Maharashtra”, became an LGBT anthem in 2014 in the fight against Article 377.
