  • The Simpson Iyers!

  • Bart iyer is wearing a kurta and pajama with sandals. His iyer vibudhi (holy ash)mark is visible on his forehead

  • Homer iyer is wearing a Veshti in tamil brahmin paalathaal style. His sacred thread is also visible, and so are his iyer vibudi markings on his forehead and arm

  • Homer iyer dozed off after eating his favourite vadai with chutney

  • Lisa iyer is wearing a typically south indian paavadai and dhaavani. she also adorns jimiki earrings

  • Maggie iyer sports an adorable paavada blouse, a little loose for her maybe. she also has a mole drawn on her cheek, something that parents tend to for little kids in India.
