Metro Ritual 5

Weekend the Metro works a bit slow. I thought it was because of the lazy weather but then I recalled that it has been happening for some other reason.

Weekend the metro is boarded maximum by people with luggage. These people travel only when there is an extended holiday or something. With so many luggages to handle, they usually forget where they have kept their token or card. They’ll keep putting their token at the wrong side and will drop their luggage right in between the entry gate which will put them between the automatic block molesting them from both the sides. So help these wanderers or confused souls and guide them and save some time in your Metro travel. You never know you might get a free achaar ka dabba or Gujrati thepla as a helping gift as you hold the heavy cumbersome bag of the old lady or tau.

Metro Ritual 4

Men purposely standing right in the middle of the general coach and the ladies coach are usually considered as desperate.

Metro Rituals 1-3

1. · Every kid is fascinated by the poles in the metro. For them they are like swings and metro is like a playground. They’ll keep running from one end to another until and unless you get hypnotized.
2. · People going to Gurgaon in Metro look different than others especially during office timings. They’ll have laptops and will flaunt their company’s access cards. Everyone will get to know what meetings they are going to attend that day or the names of the people in the office.
3. · I must say people love following Buddhism here especially when they are waiting for the train. What I mean here is that they’ll always be following the so called ‘middle path’ and stand there even when the announcement says to keep that space empty for the passengers coming out of Metro.

Jhansi Ki Rani in Metro

I recently met a Jhansi ki Rani in Metro. Must say she was totally taking a toll of the men who entered the ladies compartment. The four bogies Metro is really something which creates confusion inside men. But isn’t it a small thing to realize that the point of confusion can be worked out easily. Jhansi ki Rani showed no mercy on these petty men. She fought with them until and unless they surrendered and left the bogie. One of the guy said, “Arre madam, we are not causing any trouble to any female here!” and the mighty lady looked at him fiercely and her reply caused a long pause in the Metro premises. She said, “You are not causing trouble here but we have been suffering since centuries, just because of you guys! This is our right and we know how to get at least this one!” The moment she completed the dialogue all the men left the compartment silently looking down in shame. I paid my tribute to this Jhansi ki Rani along with others by passing a confident smile as the guys were moving out of the compartment. Two three were still there because they didn’t understand whatever she said as it was in English. Sometimes I think we can have real life subtitles running especially in such situations.

Fake in the Fog

Winters in metro are not really friendly I can see and even smell, people who are lazy to take bath in the chilly weather of Delhi. But what's fancy about winters is that you see a lot of people who have this crazy line of winter clothings. With the fake looking Zara to Puma, people wear anything possible which has a tag. But the matter of fact still remains is why these people never realise that if you want to ever buy such stuff, you should see at least the spelling of the brand. I recently saw a female wearing PUMA with a horse printed on it. This is really what you call iscross breeding or you can say cross branding.

And dude what's the matter with those sparkling boots. I bet they have the same quality fur which those fancy purse have which people used to buy from melas for twenty bucks. I really don't want to comment on affordability over here, but the taste of the people. I recently saw this female who was walking with her boots tip tapping loudly in the metro. Everybody was looking at her. the best part was when they saw her fancy black sparkling boots, everyone was laughing at her. One prompltly said, "Who is she going to kill with those on?" and I replied "Yes" without giving any pause to the situation.
