MUMBAI DAYS

Anil from Kodakara:

When i was in bby one day myself, p.g.jayan , and hari were in the b'villi station, on the way 2 receive ravichettan who was returning from saudi. V r planing 2 get a slow train to villeparle. When a train came, hari said ' chalo chalo' and jayan and hari managed to get in to train, but i con't . I was with one foot on the edge of the door and another leg was on the air. But i thought, i can get down at kandivilly within 5 mts . But train didnt stopped at kandivilly. Then i asked another why it is not stopped at kandivilli he said ' gadi theje bhai' abhi bandrame rukegi ' means, i have to be in a nataraj style up to bhandra....! Thank god some of the passengers sitting near the window hold me through the window till bhandra...and that is why am alive now. Gunapatam: Jayanteyum hariyuteyum kude trainil yaathra paadilla !!


T. Ravindran to Abhilash and Ajitha It is very heartening to see that these young turks still remember the "MUMBAI DAYS" ........... In Hindu mythology "hari" is supposed to be very thoughtful ,stable GOD. but that was Anil's....... jathaka dosham / or a heavenly warning. so later he became a more stable and peace loving person. Thanks to "allah" for all those incidents !!! positive thinking : (PMA).

Similar thing happened for your MOM when my MOM decided to send her for a marriage in "Mattunga" during 1975 for exposure. She could have ended up in "red light area" after she got into a train which was diverted to Bandra Yard due to tech. problem , while her friend could not get into that train from MATUNGA station. She did not have the ticket/ money and even know BANDRA !!!! let the mother narrate her son in detail now. MORAL of the story: Let us try to publish such narrations in our "thottappilly blog" instead of some quotes from the last pages of English books and funny photos !!!
