Life of Street performers

I've seen a lot of street performances, and I'm sure if u're in this part of the world even u'd have. But have we ever cared to see their actual faces, faces behind those painted smiles??
I spent a few moments with them.. and the conversation with the lead performer MANJUNATH went somthing like this..

HE- en sir press avra??( are u from the press?)
ME- illa hage sumne photo tegitidini( no i'm just a hobbiest-photographer)
HE- ivag ivag nim anthavaru tumbane jasti jana idaare( there're too many people like u clicking   photos)
ME- oh..!
HE- illa sir avag vijaynagaradallu tumbane photo tegdidru.. (there were many who clicked when we performed in vijaynagar)
ME- hmm
HE- alla.., adella en maadtira sir?(wat do u do with all these photos??)
ME-hage sumne.. ad ond thara chata( just like that, its a kind of addiction!)
HE- ellargu ondalla ondu..( every one has one or the other!)
we both laugh





I guess this madness, this curiosity led me to follow them for some 2km from my home and wait till their performances were over. All these just to see the actual faces behind those smiley mask.

A few pic's of them during the performance






Now man know wat it takes to be a horse.  taking some rest after a short performance
