All traces of that feeling disappeared as I completed it last evening. Thank you for such an wonderful insight into an age that straddles our country's past and squints its eyes against the bright future ahead. As regards this particular post, did you notice that in the picture you selected, the shop-owner is using a domestic LPG cylinder to prepare his (commercial) fare? Perhaps this quite symbolizes that many "tasty" end products are often produced with not-entirely-above-the-water inputs (investors in a Hyderabad based software company would concur!). Sincerely Subrata Nandan,

I live in the US and miss everything about India! Are you really able to walk on the streets and at Chowpatty like a common man? You are almost a super star in India - I imagine you can get easily mobbed! :-) Can relate to that. I live in the US and miss everything about India!
