One sad experience!!

Few days back, I was walking down the lanes of Andheri to catch a rickshaw to my office. It's really a struggle to get a rick from there to my office. Finally after a real fight with the stinking heat of Mumbai, I got a rick. "Bhaiya Goregon west chalna", said I. The rick was quite a junk boss & the chauffeur, oh my lord was damn slow. "Bhaiya zara tez chalao" said I.

I needed to swipe some cash, so I asked him to pause at ATM. I went & come, I saw the rick driver was crying with 1 hand on his head. I was like kind of questioning myself "whats wrong?", "What happened?" & I sat back in the rick. He started his motor & we started heading towards my office. Curious I asked him " Kya ho gaya bhaiya?" He started crying again & I was like was that the wrong time or wrong question to ask... Then slowly he replied that his daughter is not well, she is almost in the mouth of heaven. His family is in Allahabad, UP & he was all alone here helpless. He was running out of money.

I got all emotional & i ended up asking him to take money from me ( I know, i know i was being emotional fool that time, but guys check out the whole story first). I was trying to be generous, but what the crap.... that auto wala turned out to be another Amitabh Bachhan of Khuddar film. He said a Big NO NO to me & my mouth remained open like Awww....

Well here my office was. While getting off from the rick said he, " main bas ap se dukh bant raha tha, paiso ke liye kahani nahi suna raha tha.Aaj kal ki duniya mein kaun kis ka hota hai, bura mat mann na madam ji, paiso ke liye suna na hota kahani to pehle hi bol diya hota. Gareeb hu, Bhikari nahi."

I was shocked, happy, sad.... mixed feeling...seeing that this kind of people still alive. Nice it was...

Well what to say..... A nice yet sad experience!!

A new beginning

Well!! A new beginning...

14th April, 5:45am i stepped down d train, hot humid platform full of ppl & told myself " Welcome,to the city of dreams: MUMBAI". I shifted to Mumbai & its treating me as if am all new to this place, which am not. I've stayed in Mumbai for 2 mnths. which was in all a gud experience tht time. But suddenly this time Mumbai has became strange for me. Donn knw whts wrong. But the best part is tht i've joined my job, which i was waiting since long. A all ne start of my life.

15th April, 10:00 am, sitting in my new office; VJ Media Works waiting for my boss to come, a new feeling was taking birth in my heart. U c the feeling of responsibility, the feel of a grown-up kind. Hush!! finally my boss arrived hah.... Well first day of office was little boring reading all the issues of our magazine, but then slowly & gradually they started giving me work. Its so amazing. Taking the flavor of being employed & work. Now am making my own database of clients, calling them, mailing them, following them, asking them for interviews & so on..... In all am super busy with work.... & m loving it...praaa pup....paaaa.... yuhuuu...

In all a new start....
A new beginning.... :)
