New Delhi: Sultan in traffic


Imagine endless traffic jams, ear piercing honks and road ethics that knows no rules. As our driver speeds through the burning red lights, we knew that our trip to India will be a memorable one. We saw 2 lane roads having to accomodate up to 4 lanes of cars, not mentioning cars driving in the opposite direction. Only Lord Shiva, god of destroyer, would know how this could happen. I was sitting at the back of the car holding on to my dear life. Not only that, I had to accustom myself to the air which is somewhat a blend of fog, smog and a little bit of dust. My body went into adaptive mode right away.

Along the way to our grand hotel, we saw a wedding procession by the road side. You can imagine the jam that it caused. It was around 11pm that night. There was a matching band leading the way and they were making a heck of a noise to get us all curious. On the horseback sits the groom who is very much like the Sultan of the night. He looked pretty determine to get his bride. Besides that everything else for him is a blur. Hence the picture. Sorry guys!
