Tiny in both ways :) He can figure out tiny cars from a distance in a showroom or a friend's place. And then, at such tiny age, can figure out almost all cars on Indian roads (and showroom too, obviously). Go through the excerpts from his sweet 3 years:
Going to have an ice cream with his mama and mausaji, he could tell them from a distance that the car that they were wondering about is nothing but a Toyota Corolla. Junu is often let down in life by being a relative of people who can't tell a Toyota from a distance (the list includes his mom and dad as well, read onto know why).
When Mom's friend came home with a set of car keys, Junu glanced through them and fired his query - "Auntie, Do you have a Honda City or Honda Accord?" Poor Auntie was aghast as the car was nowhere visible from house and so she asked how did he know to which he replied "I don't know that how do I know". Obviously, you cannot ask me now how do I know that 'Sun' is 'Sun'. So please behave like adults when talking to Junu.
About Mom, Junu feels embarrassed to admit in public that she's her Mom. Simple, because she told him one day that she'll not buy a 'Jazz' because she doesn't like Hyundai Santro and all Hyundai cars must be like that !!!
And why Dad? well, there are reasons. Here's one. Sitting in bedroom -with a glass sealed balcony, we heard a "tut tut tut tut" noise outside. To which Junu replied with excitement as usual "Pa, look, HELICOPTER". Papa acted smart and said "Ta, this is a tractor and its voice is a bit different from Helicopter". In next 10 seconds, I lost right to teach him about identifying automobiles by voice !!!
