i'm sitting in the bus and looking outside the window, at a very shabby dhaba somewhere outside pune, where the bus will be halted for another 15 minutes or so allowing people to fill their stomachs or empty their bladders...i'm too comfortable inside the AC volvo to get down and buy anything...i have indian ocean playing khandisa loud into my ears.
these are the times i tend to drift into a sage mode and get all philosophical..the usual questions begin to pop in my head...
wtf am i doing here...?
where is this going..?
why is life so fucked up..?
i drift off to sleep...

they are playing an old hindi movie in the bus...starring ashay kumar and ajay devgan(i'd never seen it before)...its got the usual masala that makes a bollywood flick..its got songs..akshay's hairy chest...devgan's bike stunts...a dukhiyari naari in the form of bindu(she used to be a cabaret dancer during big b times)...foreign locations..and a very bad bad powerful villain who is set to destroy the world as we know it..or as they knew it anyways..i've never lived in a world where the heroine feigns death just to have the hero(that too devgan)say 'i love u' over her (what he percieves as)dead body...just to have her wake up and hug him and a sec later find themselves dancing to anu malik's tunes in a beach location in mauritius...i slowly lose interest and put on my ears plugs again..this time red hot chili peppers greet me with their songs...

i am suddenly woken up by a usual sound that used to be an alarm for the past 4 yrs...the conductor yelling that surat has arrived..it took me a second to realise that i have to go on...the usual heart warming sights lay there in front of me...station, bismillah, sahara darwaza, chamunda...how i'd love to go back in time and get down there and go to devilal for a hot cup of chai and sutta..but i must go on...i reluctantly go back to sleep...these sights make me yearn and ache....

govinda looks huge even in the small screen...this time i decide to watch the entire movie..its called life partner..its not half as bad as the star cast suggests...govinda,fardeen khan,tusshar kapoor...it cud have been worse...

the familiar sights greet me...there is something about homecoming..its as if the entire city is aware that you are coming back...the air is fresh...the rickshaw walla's jump at u to let them take u home..the sweet sound of gujju all around me...
i'm in "aapnu amdavad"
i'm home!

the heroine feigned death??? heh heh.. that's a new one on me... since i thought it usually happens the other way around.. the hero would feign death to have the girl weep big loud tears over his body, and thus cause her to confess her love and so on with the blah...
and dont break my heart all over again by describing college.. the last journey to the station was the saddest one..
ah! home! sounds so royal..
