even i have faced this problem alot of times...

the one that's like papad must be khakra....you can get it at most of grocery stores...dorabjee at MG road has a good collection

try tomato khakra...or even palak .. tastes very good...

other thing that i happened to discover was some kind of badam sweet...it's not a barfi...it's hard like mysore pak ...u may ask at Chitale Bandhu...they would tell u the name...it's a wonderful sweet...i had it for the first time and all liked it

Ami, khakhra is a gujju item and not typical of pune.

I hope you are not talking about aam papad...which is sweet.

Khakhra is namkeen.
