In the last 48 hours, an event has taken place in Mumbai which can have long-term repercsussions. It has been a year now that Maity has been looking for a place. He wanted to move out of his Worli place and finally, like a true Bollywood scriptwriter has moved to Bandra.
Bandra! The dream suburb, cool 'joints', happening people, proximity to the sea, a quaint Goan/Christian culture and now Maity's home. It's a 2 BHK apartment. But Maity will use only 1B. And the other B is (drumroll) is shared by two girls...one works in an NGO and the other is an aeronautical engineer.
Okay. Repercussions.
1. Dadu's biye gets postponed.
2. Ronnie decides look further.
Reactions.
1. Mac: Guru ebaar amaake ektu pass barao!
