Merge

The mundu is distinct from the lungi, both of which are worn in Kerala. The mundu is more formal than the lungi and it would be considered derogatory to call a mundu a lungi. The description of the mundu fits the dhoti more than the lungi. - —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 202.68.145.230 (talk • contribs) .

202.68.145.230, Thanks for clarifying that. I have changed the merge request so that that this article can be merge to Dhoti. Mundu does not need a seperate article. A sub-section on Dhoti will suffice. Please sign your talk page posts by typing ~~~~. - Ganeshk (talk) 14:16, 17 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The merge request may be dropped, considering the opinions expressed on Mundu and Dhoti discussions. 20:54, 17 February 2006 (UTC)

Men have traditionally worn mundum-neriyathum and it is rather different to what women wear.--Grammatical error 15:15, 28 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This is wrong

I've never heard anyone say "veshti" (in the Dhoti article, it seems to be a Tamil name for the mundu). The cloth that covers part of the upper body is a neriyathu (men and women just wear it in different ways).--172.216.103.58 17:50, 27 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
