Long Long
time ago in 1995 the cost of a single vada pav was 3rs and now in 2012 its 10
rs-12 rs depending on its hygienic quality (lol hygiene!! yah rite!!). Every
six months the price of this snack rises by leaps and bounds. Some people use
their undies more than that time frame (people who do must be smiling now).
With prices rising everyday even Gandhiji’s picture on our currency will be
crying very soon.
Nowadays the
competition is not between the “Khan’s” it’s more between petrol and vada-pav.
And the day is not far when even a vada-pav vendor will start accepting a
credit card. That day eating our Mumbai’s favorite snack on Andheri stn made me
realize that our lives are not so different than the vada-pav’s we eat. Like
the kind of life the common man has is like the pav holding the vada. We come
in tiles (as in Ek Ladi Pav) and are piled one above the other like always and
the price rarely changes.
But this
common pav tries very hard to hold it’s family, memories, experiences, friends,
etc in the form of “vada” which has many things in it. Some succeed but some
get torn trying to hold it together as long as they can. It’s not every day you
find a place with that exact ingredients that made the perfect dish. So very
much like us where we give our best to make it perfect for our world the “Vada”
but fail sometimes due to reasons plenty. We give our best to cope it up by
adding some chutney’s and fried mirchi’s to keep the blend close to perfect.
But what’s
life without a little surprise so don’t be afraid to add a mirchi to your life.
EAT EAT EAT
EAT EAT!!!!
Till next
time Adios suckers!!!!!
