Wannakam Chennai

Chennai-
The first ever flight. The first ever job, the first ever salary. The first "own" mobile connection. The first place outside home. the first test of true friendship outside home...
Starry nights, mosquito, trains running by and delightful freshness of pallavarm railway surroundings where 100 odd outsider like us were used to rest,chill out, and talk about home,movies,local girls, money,jobs and frightful landlords...
Chennai the first experience of proposing a girl as an earning man.. Chennai the first ever sense of dreams... The crazy nights of staying at bay and watching the waves hitting the shore...
sense of fulfillment when I was able to make a difference in my fathers life... sense of love when my dearest friends experienced magical movements in her landmark forum and I was able to see her be happy...
magical movements when I was able to sense and set a purpose to my life...
Chennai is where I started becoming a man...
Chennai is where I smell sea and sun... ever present sense of being in a town about to change in a cement giant metro- and yet even if you go deep in city and deeper.. still retaining the quality of a sea-shore town..
all roots lead to Chennai.....

The plane starts descending and I am preparing to talk in my funny Tamil and start bargaining...
"Wannkkam chennai"
