It's not time for cows to party in God's Own Country, Kerala, yet. While Maharashtra and Haryana have pulled the plug on the beef-serving fraternity, down south the story is different.

"None of us here have issues with beef consumption. It is part of Kerala's culture. How can we be stopped from eating something we want to?" asked Ajeeth Muhammad, a supporter of Muslim League, while sharing the dish with Ajith.

As a Malayalee, and a hardcore foodie, I'm glad the people of the state organised such a poignant protest. It's refreshing to see people eat joyously instead of staging bhookh hartals.

And the Hindu-Muslim unity is a clear winner.
