hmmmm....its been that long i have been here in the capital of the Republic of India,,,and what do i have to fall back on as memories?????good question,,,but the answer is real hard to come across,,,,let me think,,,,the roads,,,maybe yes after the minefields and alleys of the City of Joy everything looks and feels great,,,,the women & cars on those roads,,have not seen so many bentelys and audis pass me by,,,ye ye am a man after all,,,the traffic,,its all the same wherever you go to in India,,,better than Bangalore for hell,,,the weather,,,it doesnt get worse than Delhi in the summers,,,and they are telling me that its just gonna be another extreme when the winter arrives finally,,,,so nothing really to look forward to,,,but then these are what every innocent bystander would say,,,,anything special,,,well people, the culture,,,as for every place in this country is different,,,but then the question arises does it have a culture to call its own,,,or maybe the place never found time to cultivate its own,,,let me tell every one am not against Delhi,,,and that aint any criticism,,,just passing observations,,,
so what will i remember when i do move on to another city another place,,,god knows,,,cos i
really have not got any evidence,,,the night life,,,hmmmm,,,maybe i will remember the malls of Gurgaon and their sheer audacity in coming up one after the other,,,and still being choc a bloc with people at all hours of the day,,,,
i will remember the brazeness of most people i come across out of the office environment,,,have seen people full of themselves,,,but so full,,,nah don think so,,,,
now people will be thinking,,of all people who am i to share my thoughts or monologue on what i have not seen yet in Delhi or didnt try to look at all,,,well guess everyone has their perspectives and this is mine,,,again,,have been in many big and small cities in my whole life,,,they all somehow had something which got me closer to them in one way or the other,,,,but it hasnt happened yet with me here,,,
so is it the people or my own ignorance,,,well i surely hope it is the latter for my own good,,,cos will have to spend a whole lotta time here in the future albiet for economic reasons,,,,
guess one thing i will remember is,,,the food,,,not cos its special but cos u get everything here,,,starting from the dhabas to the continental cusines of the world,,,,and if you know the right places you really wont have to shell out your hard earned money.
spending so much time and space just on what i have not seen in Delhi yet,,,you guys must be wondering this guy must have lotsa time on his hands,,,well i guess i do,,,but then hope against hope that the next 75 days will be as memorable as the last 75 ones havent been.....
