We were in an upmarket pub last saturday. The stockmarkets had crashed on Friday the world over-India too. People kept pouring in like bad news to have a merry time well past midnight. The music 'rocked' louder and louder; birthdays were being celebrated while the crowd was getting wilder and wilder. It was as if no one here had seen the news and was blissfully unaware of the worlds mess. Or maybe the world is unaware of what is happening in india.
Just that morning our servant had asked us as to when the prices of vegetables would come down. Their schoolgoing children had not had veggies for the last month. Maybe we are all staying in different worlds.
