Hi Guys,
I am back to Phursatgunj after six months. Nothing ever changes in my beloved Phursatgunj. The same hopeless youngsters hanging out at station in the night; the same roadside larries; the same Kalubhai's tea and last but not the least the same Sabu - the reigning king of baba dynasty in Phursatgunj. I am here for the next twenty days. Today, I met the royal Ranjit Singh XVII on Kalubhai's lari. He looked weak. Learnt that he is still recuperating from his illness. Living in aamchi Mumbai has taken its toll on the physical self of this aging warrior. However, he was still his talkative self. Sabu is as usual lazy and dirty ( he told me that he has not brushed his teeth and taken bath since more than one month) . Pahelwan seems to be busy in Mumbai with Jose without josh. Also met Dhavalbhai, our current president at Kalubhai's lari. Our room in Sardarnagar becomes oven in the afternoon, due to which I couldn't sleep well today. Also, couldn't go anywhere as Sabu's bike is dead. Let's see, tomorrow we will try to bring Kumar Gaurav's rath. The another disadvantage is that I couldn't watch the soccer world cup matches. That's sad. We are also expecting the selfless Kharchu to join us soon and may be KG. Will keep you guys posted about the latest updates from Phursatgunj. Till than sayonara.
