Injustiss.
Like most other democracies in the world now, india too is seeing a backlash from the haves against the havenots especially for access to higher education. But the haves in India looking for education is being wooed by France and Brexit England to help fund their universities. Where will you send your children?
Deonar Farm Road
Bread and eggs. Daily delivery.
Sometimes when we pause to look around on my way to work, a different Mumbai slowly surfaces, invisible and quite often on bicycle or on foot. Sometimes they even shout and cry and it is background noise to us but not to the people who understand that frequency and the time of the call. Like bird watchers who have the ears for the song of birds. It's a world that keeps the city going like one the hidden gears and wheels inside a clock. We are the more visible needles to ourselves. Behind the numbers is an interlinked world that makes us all move and on time.

Shivaji. Orginally from Pandharpur, MH. Lives in Chunnabhatti and walks the streets of Mumbai playing the Shehnai, usually tunes of devotional songs to Sai Baba of Shirdi.
Here is another Shehnai player I found outside Thurbe station.
The instrument looks little but can produce a powerful sound and it's no wonder that it is the preferred instrument at noisy weddings. Only Nadaswaram, the Shehnai's cousin can produce something as powerful and that too is used to float over noisy gatherings.

Here is the sound of trumpety thing blowing full horn from an old Tamil movie and locking horns with Yesudas. The video made by someone named Spinal Orgasmia also gives you some basic lessons of Carnatic music in a funny way. And tests the decibel levels musically. Have a listen.
