Shifted backside, imported crackery and Brocheva revarura ...

What do these have in common? All part of a bus ride back home from ITPL :) The shifted backside was not incurred by me, because of the bad road - but happened to be a sign put up by a shopkeeper to indicate that he has vacated his older shop facing the road, and moved to a shop at the back. The imported crackery was not any drug case busted, but happened to be a sale on airport road, selling plates, spoons and other dinner sets. (I think the owner meant crockery!) And as for ' Brocheva ', the driver had a small AM radio and a speaker above his head, which he had tuned to All India Radio Vividh Bharathi . It has been so long since I listened to this. And yesterday, it was Unni Krishnan crooning to Brocheva in Kamas , and Paluke Bangara mayena in Ananda Bhairavi . The driver was fully into the music. He was tapping his foot, putting thalam on the steering wheel, and was totally enjoying a full-blown music sabha experience. Only that, his driving speed or his rashness did not reduce, because of the mellifluous music.
