KKolkata is a city that has remained the poet's inspiration for the last three hundred years but l have found out that it's hell of a dirty city which floods every August, has narrow lanes disappearing in corners and has people who can sound like pseudo intellectuals and do not even have a Graduate degree. It's still running courtesy Didi and the unwavering loyalty of the people to this woman who has an undying spirit. Say anything about her in public and there is a swift phone call arriving at your house threatening you and sometimes the threats turn real. It's very much applicable for outsiders.
The strange thing about this city is if you own even a very small flat in Saltlake you are a bhadrolok but the man who owns a villa in Kestopur or Tiljala is a bissnessman with no education. The love that this city shows for its culture is exemplary and that is the reason why the whole nine yards is still a favourite, the Bengali diva clutches it with unassumed fondness.Music and especially Robindrosongeet is played during Pujas and Adele will never disturb your day with her song ' Hello'.
Miseries and trouble can never stop chasing me and recently l had rollercoaster experience. After a regular fight with my husband l had tried unsuccessfully to make a matrimonial profile. But it quickly fell into the hands of a man who is running a successful escort service business. My stupidity paid off and the man ended it all by even hitting my husband. Funny because Kolkatans always find it so when Herak Mukherjee the Area Sales Manager of a German MNC gets hard hitten. The salary of an academic begins at Rs57000 and imagine my partymen how much fun they have at the cost of this poor man.
Didi's amra likhi amra pori has led to the inauguration of many schools and Colleges where there are staff but no students and then the faculty here are doing a Govt job. The rest of it l would like to keep mum because saying one sentence more will mean receiving a tight slap on the face. I might even be forced to sleep with the local fishseller, because this is what is happening in my part of the world.
