You know its Monsoons in Mumbai when..


waves doing bhangra at Worli sea face

  • we see hideous raincoats laden humans on the street..[a middle - aged pot-bellied man in yellow rain suit with red and blue umbrellas print is not exactly Versace's idea of  Monsoon collection]
  • Kids cringe to wake up for school.. (this time cringe for a reason *giggle*)
  • all TV channels play Mumbai Deluge 2006 archives in a loop scaring us for our dear lives
  • Speed-breakers develop potholes
  • Two- wheelers ride like wusses *bhahaha*
  • you find confused ladies sitting behind the wheel figuring out their complex wiper system
  • these same ladies drift their cars to the right / left without their knowledge *tsk tsk*
  • walking on the road is a b*tch as four wheelers happily spray muddy water through their tyres
  • potholes develop super potholes
  • relishing a chatpata pani-puri from the street can be your express ticket to the hospital 
  • the waves go wild , and i absolutely love watching them sippy my cuppa tea.. 
  • standing on the Marine drive promenade and battle waves & muddy sea water is fun..
  • you do not get bombarded with honks/ mean looks/ abuses for driving slow..  
  • you do not look stupid when you fog lights are left on and you had no clue
  • ladies in the above situation would struggle to find what fog lights are in the first place and hence drift the car to a diasaster.. you kno the drill..
  • one searches for india's national bird to see some delightful dance.. but all we find is pigeon poop
  • bad hair days are acceptable... afterall the humidity gets us all !
  • i make hyper plans to trek to Kanheri caves..
  • None of our trouser's seams retain original color.. they all seem to turn to different shades of brown
  • when i discuss dance steps of 'barso re megha megha' with some fools
