Before we get into the meat of the post, a masala…err, caveat, in the form of a conversation with a friend.
Take a pic!

Use your phone!
This piece of shit? Nope. I only do good photos.

Did anyone get stuck in a gargantuan traffic jam in Vile Parle/ Andheri/ Jogeshwari/ Malad earlier this week? Yes, yes, I know that’s roz ka jhamela in aamchi Mumbai.
