DAY 149 (Bole to ekdum Mumbaiyya....Maangta kya?)

I just lived a dream in past few days and I don't wanna wake up ever! :)
Yes...as the title suggests, I was in Mumbai! Mumbaiii...the city of dreams, culture, local trains, huge buildings, sea-sides, bollywood and what not. You name it and you have it. The list is endless!

I couldn't blink my eyes. And that was not because the city is so dream-looking or fancy. It was because I couldn't believe that such a small part of the planet can have so many things going altogether at the same time. You wanna be with yourself all on your own...Mumbai is the place. You wanna be crowded all the time...guess what..?...Mumbai is the place once again! Its both strange and unbelievable.

There is this strange misconception or general opinion that if you are not a Mumbaiyya, then you'll only go for becoming an actor or a model there. People are cunning there. Anyone can make a fool of you and you wouldn't even notice. And above all, its not safe for girls to be in the city all alone!
Trust me its all pure MISCONCEPTIONS!

The localites of the city are the most helping and kindest people ever. If there is any nuisance in the city then its all because of the outsiders. Those who do not belong to the place and don't want to be belonged as well. Its just that they can't take the beauty and thus they'll do anything to ruin it.

You have freedom, creativity and peacefulness as the top favourites of the city! I know 'peacefulness' and 'Mumbai' don't sound too perfect to be related but as I said its just a misconception of the mind.

It was so much fun to find even the taxi-drivers and the auto-wallahs so interesting! In Mumbai, there is a magazine called 'Meter Down' which is available generally in all auto-rickshaws. And what an amazing piece of creativity it is. You feel to be a Mumbaiyya in the first hand as soon as you enter a rickshaw.

And how can I forget the yummy mendu-vadas and sambhar! I never knew that south-indian food can tempt me so much as well. The traffic system of the city, the general civic sense of the localites....its all so impressive! And hats off to that!

Be it the Juhu beach, chaupati, bade miyan ka non-veg, marine drive , gateway of India, worli sea-link, VT station, bandra sea-link or anything else....its all worth visiting once for sure! You see crazy fans outside the bollywood stars apartments/houses just to get that one look of their heroes :D. You'll get the most expensive and the cheapest clothing there. People mind their own business and thats what they expect from others.

Life is a heaven if you are in Mumbai! Live it to believe it :)))))))))))

DAY 321 (Bring the change!)

 If you are a mother and if you keep cribbing about societal issues and the way kids have been brought up in our generation, keep reading. Well, every generation have their own issues and we all progress in a way or another. But even after generations of changes there is one common issue which is discussed in all forums (professional and personal/ formal and informal/ planned and unplanned) is patriarchy.  I am not one of those feminist who advocate for the world to turn into a matriarch to take revenge on the oppression generations of women have been facing. I honestly vote for equality. And I think most of us do. However, what do we actually do to bring that change?  Apart from discussing and being profound at the takeaways, I don’t think there is any progressive step that we actually take. I do feel that to take the step it does not have to be groundbreaking. Everything starts at home and so this solution starts at home too.  Most of the time, we start discussing ...

DAY 91 (Yukkkk..!!!)

Another GODFATHER for guys is out now....and yes I am talking about LSD (Love Sex and Dhoka) ! Standing ovation for Miss Ekta Kapoor who chose to leap from the head to toe covered Saas and bahus to directly all nude perverts...!!  I have seen guys being so curious for this movie probably because its been a long time after DEV D for them to watch something "meaningful" like this. I find you tube links of the promos and the special songs of the movie in their social networking site's status and they are just so proud of that. I am ...and I am sure every girl is amazed with the criteria of their meaningfulness! Either everything yukkkyyyy is just their type or they have not been keen to explore any other thing in the world than this! I am sick and tired of the caller tunes which I get to hear now whenever I call up any one of them and then I just do not want to talk any further after that. I believe learning Biology compulsorily till class 10th atleast has given only t...

DAY 105 (When life is awesome...!!)

As I was about to join a job...people told me..that you are gonna lose all your independence and happiness now....cutting off the social network by default...and then you'll realize...what a mess it is and what golden days those 10 "doing-nothing" months were! I used to just shrug it off...because I do not like to predict like everyone else. And now...most of them have got the answers. I have never been happier than this. I do all I missed to do ever...all I loved to do ever...with my grey cells working in parallel as well which is like a perk! Playing table tennis,an urge to learn guitar or atleast try to do so was like few of the things I could never carry on with...due to zillions of factors. But where there is a will...there is a way! I got all I desired packed up in the most beautiful and satisfactory environment ever. What else could I ask for? I have met like some of the most interesting and loveliest people ever (I know...that in professional life...everyon...
