Chennai, here I come!

Its been long since I updated my blog…last one month was kind of a transition period for me…it was bye to Mumbai, and yes now it is ‘Chennai – here I come’. Phew, I am really scattered (both my energies and mind), trying to fit in my new place and work…hope I collect my energies and proceed well forward…hope everything goes well…I am a firm believer of ‘Everything happens for a reason’ (Good or bad)

Found an interesting video on Chennai – the place, the people and the city life. Namma Chennai! – should I hail or disdain Chennai…only time will tell…I am yet to explore aspects of Chennai…
