Whats being cosmo

I record my thoughts from a browsing centre in Bangalore. I had an enlightning discussion with one of my colleagues here in Bangalore about how cosmopolitan the city is. To me the very word Cosmo sounds something that breaks free from the conventional living. But is that all cosmo means?

My friend says that he feels that Bangalore does not really reverb the "cosmo" status that others attach to it. He says that the city has nothing more than just pubs all round this place and just nothing else! Sounds surprising to me. Surprising indeed.

So what is being cosmo? going to pub? wearing those torn pair of jean? streaking hair like as if you were too close to sun a day back? Is that all it is to show off that you are cosmopolitane'? I'm yet to find out for myself.
