During college I was posted at Patni Computer Systems, and the company had given Mumbai as my location..... This was I think the 1st of September, I had just reached Dadar at around 630 in the morning!!!.....
Mumbai life at 630 is unthinkable, there is confusion all around you...
Coming bak to my story!! I had to go my friends place in Chembur , and I had with me 2 heavy baggages!!! One sardar came upto me and he asked me where I wanted to go....I told him where I wanted to! He took me to his taxi where there were 2 other sardars... this was turning out to be a little scary!! Both of them were 6 ft must be weighin about 90 kgs each....
As I got into the taxi, the guys got into a conv. with me and asked me for a change of 1000 bucks, They needed 2 500's!!!
I gave it to them, and I got a 1000 rupee note in return!! After a while , probably abt 300 meters from the station, the guys tell me that it would cost about 300 rupess to get to chembur, when I very well knew that it would cost me 100 rupees by cab.
I told them to stop the car, and checked their 1000 buck note, it turned out to be fake.... I stopped the car, it turned into a little argument, and finally there stood a mob of people around me...
The local crowd helped me out of the confusion, I got my 2 500 buck notes back, and i caught another taxi bak home!!
Its true that 90% of mumbai is honest but the 10% compensate for the rest of the crowd!!!!

Lights will guide you home.......
I guess this has been my all time favorite band and I have been listening to one song again and again and again..........
Its called Fix yuou by Coldplay and the more number of times I listen to it, the more i like it.....
I just got the lyrics from the web and it goes as follows:
When you try your best but you don't succeed
When you get what you want but not what you need
When you feel so tired but you can't sleep
Stuck in reverse.
And the tears come streaming down your face
When you lose something you can't replace
When you love someone but it goes to waste
Could it be worse?
Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you
And high up above or down below
When you're too in love to let it go
But if you never try you'll never know
Just what you're worth
Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you
Tears stream, down on your face
When you lose something you cannot replace
Tears stream down on your face
And I..
Tears stream, down on your face
I promise you I will learn from my mistakes
Tears stream down on your face
And I..
Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you.................
