I can’t imagine that it would be that difficult to get rid of curry smell. A good painting and carpet cleaning should do it.

Total strip, prime and re-paint. Strip and replace all padding and carpet. Clean all air ducts. I was a residential real estate agent and appraiser for some years. I could smell curry molecules before entering the front door. A goodly number of the properties would transfer to another Indian and I guess they didn't care. Other ethnic groups have their own odiforous idiosyncrasies. With Vietnamese, its fish. With Koreans, its cabbage and garlic. With Negroes, its fried chicken grease and weed. Frankly, I don't blame this Brit one bit.

I’ve had Punjabi (Indian) friends back in HS and still in touch with them.

It’s TRUE. They wreak of curry.

Don’’t get me wrong, they’re still in my circle of friends but the times I went to their houses, the curry was seeping through the walls and I could smell the curry at the street.

the smell costs should be paid by the Paki smell deposit collected before the tenant moves in
