Its been as long as four years since I have been in Kolkata. To breathe the air of my hometown and see all those streets where we have walked through and the good old buildings, the shops - I felt Nostalgic. My part of Calcutta has not changed at all. That fruit shop at the busy corner of the S.N Banerjee road is still there including most of the shops and the footpath looks the same.
We can still hear the clock drumming its metal arm- beginning of every hour.
The first 12 years that I have spent in this city has the most beautiful mingled memories. Somehow, only Kolkata gives the real feeling of Home.
The loud, noisy people of Kolkata, seems like my people. Even in the most busy street at the end of the tiring day people have the patience to guide you to your destination without irritation.
The traffic after so many years - was the same. All the vehicles turn off their engine when stuck in a red light and you can feel the absolute silence for just few seconds.
