Missing all things indian

Being away from india for an extended period of time, im missing all things indian. Although life is good here, its never like being in mumbai or chennai. One miss all those small pleasures that makes life more beautiful.

Here is a list of few things that comes to my mind and makes me nostalgic about mumbai now :

  • the Mani's cafe/Madras cafe food from matunga.
  • Going to siddhi vinayak temple once in a while.
  • Watching a weekend tamil movie at aurora theatre,matunga.
  • catching the last train to andheri at 1:19 AM from elphinstone.
  • having the first tea from chaiwala, on mornings after full nite deliveries.
  • watching sun tv songs late nite / as well as keeping it loud and pissing off the house owner.
  • Buying latest hot selling books (paperback) for really cheap price @matunga/churchgate.
  • visiting my uncle's home.

and the list goes on...

I think the songs writer knew how it feels when he wrote "sorgame endraalum athu nammoora pola varuma".. meaning "Even if its heaven it wont be like my village".
