Rupee Symbol

The Indian rupee got a symbol yesterday and I was super excited. So excited that I talked about it to anyone and everyone who crossed my path.

There had been talk about it for the last few weeks and I was waiting to see which one finally got approved. Not that it really matters if we got one or what it looked like since it doesn't change the value of the rupee but it was something new to look forward to.

The suspense is over. We know what it looks like but alas when I wrote it, I realised that it didn't look so nice written in my handwriting. Since then some of my euphoria has dissipated and now am not so sure if I like the symbol we've got :(
