Delhi Diary VI: The Return of Calefaction
Eighteen days ago the torridness
that we were greeted with was very eloquently described by Mohsinur thus: it
appears like I am sleeping on a frying pan! Mohsinur is a wily fellow and the
stream of artful assembles of words that escape his mouth functions as an
entertainment channel in itself. His facebook updates can only compete and lose
because these are only shareware others make him choose! Original wit is his
flamboyance which compares with the originality of the acting prowess of Will
Smith whom he idolizes! The actor is my favourite as well and thus Mohsinur
impresses me all the lot more. Thus, I have been reduced into a man who quotes
him at all times. His intellectual influence keeps growing! He flashes a grin
at me even as I type these words sitting in the couch opposite to him, where he
is intently playing online cricket, and while he regards my thoughtful look in
an offhand manner, I see rivulets of sweat dribbling from his forehead! This is
one of the many indicators that the heat wave has returned with vengeance.
After some insincere, shy and infrequent monsoon showers that somehow managed
to keep the mercury readings below forty, the sun is again menacingly staring
down upon Delhi during daytime. At night time, the calefaction continues with heat
radiating from walls and floors and with long hours of power-cuts, tales of
misery like the latter part of this one form update material from a fried
brain!
