My relocation to Delhi is akin to a whirlwind romance, in terms of the pace at which things have moved. Well, the honeymoon is now over and I need to get down to the business of daily living and only time will tell if the city will grow on me.

Most of the folks I know have said such terrible things about the city, that maybe, things are a lot better than I expected. When I got off the flight and got in my cab, my left hand clutched my deodorant (might work as a temporary reaction on an assault!). Maybe I should be grateful to these folks for putting the fear of God in me. The going has been better than I expected.

The weather is gorgeous. On my third day in office I bumped into me ‘ex-ex-ex colleague’ who has sort of taken me under his wing, giving me the lowdown on how people function in this city. His insights have been useful.

I also attended this very interesting ‘Ladies Sangeet’, where the family of the bride enacted several Hindi film song ‘items’. The DJ was a certain Funky DJ Janakpuri
