Experience from Aamchi Mumbai.. Chapter 2..!!

Life in MUMBAI ...!!

Hello My Dear Friends...!!
I am here again.. Presenting Chapter 2 of "Experiences from aamchi Mumbai " :)
There is something special about this "Bumbai nagariya.."... Mumabi had made me re post about it...!! It was my promise to my friends anyways.... still...!!
Even after 6 months...
I m still on point that Mumbai is full of adjustments...
You have to adjust in every little thing you can think of...
Sometimes you will enjoy this adjustment and more often you will get irritated...
Sometimes you will feel proud of yourself and more often you will wish to kill all people around...
I wonder.. Do terrorist really come to mumvai or it is just that mumbai compels people to become terrorist.. In the sense, Everyone here is fighting over something...
Some fights even get worst...
Every one here is trying to overtake either the frustrating traffic or the Mumbai special "garbage collection Van" ..! uff...!! Who says roads here are full of people??? I found them to be filled of dustbins... Dustbins.. and dustbins..!!

And still they keep saying.. " Aamchi Mumbai! !"...

Someone have said it correctly...!! One who have enjoyed his stay in Pune can never accept Mumbai as a place to live ...!! truely true.. Thats the only expression I can give ...!! :( and my bad luck.. I am here to prove this statement... or just to oppose it ???

Time will decide whether Mumbai can change my opinion about it or my opinion just gets worsen day by day....!!!

My blog post will clearly say out this no doubt...!!

Experiences from aamchi Mumbai Chapter 1 ...

Hi Friends..
This might not be the first time u are hearing the story from someone who is trying to settle down in mumbai...

Experiencing very difficult sometimes dramatic situations from the very first day in mumbai. I will b completing almost a month's stay here but it still feels miserable to live here with given conditions.


One of the WORST experience I had was :

I reached to Vikhroli bus stop at 7.10am and after 10 min I came to know that there is "BEST strike".... Why the hell they call it "BEST" ??...
I immediately ran to get an auto till the Railway station to get the Local.
After boarding the local I felt that I am one of those 1 trillion ants who r trying to eat a single small grain of sugar... :(
I needed to change the line "CENTRAL LINE" to "WESTERN LINE"...
for that I got down from the local at DADAR station which is the WORST station I hv ever seen.... somehow managed to find the WESTERN platform to go to Goregaon... But.. Due to some reasons (u can say clashes between friends ) I had to take a taxi to goregaon which cost Rs. 216 :(
And all this dramatic journey took 2.15 hours... :(

Dear Mumbai...
I have no problem living with u.. but can u b a bit more informative and helpful ??
How can u do things like this ..?? I even got adopted to ur FAST life but please give a pre-intimations of the disasters go gonna bring... how can u say that there is "this Bandh" or that strike at 11th hour... ?!

I am fortunate enough to get such nice new friends and very helpful neighbours...


There are lot many bad as well as good experiences to share.... :)

Keep a watch... ;) :P :)
