Chidiyaghar

Don't take it personal, although I know, it is. 
It has been sometime, I have written anything. I guess, the creative element was missing somewhere. Anyway, jab jago tab savera. I have been trying to write this blog from a month, but I was lacking the correct words to frame it gift wrapped. Here we go...

This blog is all about my present living situation. If you have lived as a tenant in Mumbai/any other big city, you may feel the essence of this blog. Sometimes, I feel I live in a Chidiyaghar. We have 8-9 people staying under the same roof. So if I say, it's a chidiyaghar, it is a fact. Each resident has their own unique characteristic trait.

I would like to start from the master of all. Master or I should say first person takes care of everyone in the house. Jolly, kind hearted and fun loving person. Sometimes irritating, else ok. We call him as uncle. He is master of all things you can think of. Hold on... he is not the one whose orders are followed. Uncle speaks with everyone and make fun of all. Its fun.

Every boss has a boss. We call her as Home Minister-Aunty. She is a good cook if she want to be. She also takes care of all the same way as uncle. Also, she has added traits. Sometimes she become angry, else good to go. Aunty informs everyone individually about every incident, its also fun.

Next is the oldest tenant. Over the years, it has become quiet, just like even a ferocious one becomes silent if kept caged for long time. I appreciate that patience though. He is busy in himself and does not get involved in Chidiyaghar chi chi.

Moving on to another interesting one. It can never sit silent, every time it will have some or the other issue with everyone. Well, I can say-everyone have their own talents. It is also good, but known as Raja sahab who doesnt keep his feet on the ground anytime. His one feet is always one feet above ground.

Now its time to talk about another female member. A clever one, who knows what to speak and when. Considered as favorite of uncle and aunty. She is also known as coffee maker of the Chidiyaghar. She is also a good cook, again if she wants to be.

Here we go for the assignment person. Yes, its last name is "assignment". Best thing about this one is, its my roommate. It is so involved so much in his own stuff that it does not want any quarrel, so always tries to ignore Chidiyaghar issues like food and what not. He is famous for tea and headquarter meetings.

I am next, well you all know-all about me. Still few tits and bits related to Chidiyaghar. I wake up at exact time in order to avoid restroom time clashes. I don't like to take someone else time and expect the same. My job is to prepare cool stuff mostly ice and milk related.

Then came the Doctor of house. He does not have the doctor feel, but a degree. Since the beginning, he did'nt had a proper impression on the family members and hence considered another different case. Well, that's not his fault completely, but the situation. Sometimes, situation is not under your control.

Last but not the least, nother chai guy. He is roomie of doctor. But unlike doc, he sleeps peacefully. I think, he is accustomed. He already tried 2 accommodations and then came to this mad house which makes me say, this place is actually cool.

Long story-short, every place/people have their own ups and downs. You can't get everything anywhere, adjust and keep going. Bhai...chalne do.
