Mr.Bachchan & Rani Mukherjee !
I am from Kolkata but at present in Bangalore for sometime. Today I woke up early and was enjoying the morning sitting at the balcony of our flat.

We were curious & inquisitive to know whatever was happening far and near or to say- in a simple manner-under the sky. We used to spend most of our time in Madan Cabin-a local tea shop run by an ever smiling Madan Babu. This was the place where every kind of gossips got their priority accordingly. It was probably a Sunday morning adda that we were having at the cabin when suddenly Bhoja (a local) came rushing towards us.
