I have spent my 21 years in Amdavad. I have a special attachment for Amdavad, just like the attachment of a child for a mother.The traffic jams, the super smooth (mostly) roads, kadi dhoop, the BRTS, everything. The first Monsoon showers, Makai-vada,Dal-vada and corns. The super hot and freaking summers and super chilled winters. I love and adore all what Amdavad gives us to dwell.Amdavad my first love.But then, I had to move. To make my own identity, to give a boost to my career.
The luck dragged me to my dream city Mumbai. Yes, I liked the city since my childhood. I always wanted to spend some years in Mumbai. I started loving the city and feel the Nasha. The lovely local trains, Dhoop-pasina, Misal to Kanda-poha. Kasa kay to kem cho! The whole city was mine. It made me independent.It made me what I am today. Gave me my closest buddies-my life. My karmabhoomi and yes, my heart skips a beat when I hear "Mumbai"!
Today, at 6 in the morning while coming back from railway station I was feeling the first love-The love for Amdavad. After 6 lovely days with my family and at my own Amdavad I was back. I was missing Amdavad so badly that , I just wanted to run back to the train. Suddenly I looked upon the road. The dusky-dark early morning, head lights were brighter and I could sense the speed of the life in Mumbai. Yeah My own Mumbai-Aamchi Mumbai. It was the dichotomy of love.
I couldn't decide, tears in my eyes are for which love-The dichotomy of love!
