Deare Raghuji,
Precisely this shrub is *Grewia hirsuta*, I could taste the Honey-sweet of
these fruits when we were in field works; common in dry deciduous forests.
First I hesitated to eat this fruit owing to its hirsuite nature, but it is
really good.

Local Tamil name: Thaen kallai [seeds of honey]
