i am always flooded with loads of emotions at the very mention of the name 'madras' .the city thats always closer to my heart.right from the time i was a kid it always captivated me fascinated me and enthralled me.i love beaches and can spend days together curled up feeling the warm smooth sand caress my skin,the salty breeze wafting though my hair,my spectacles misting up with salt,the embers roaring with the wind when the corns are roasted,chat food items,horoscope,fish,shells.mmmm its like being transported back to the beach.the most visited being marina and besant nagar (fondly called bessy beach by chennaites) with the passing years the quaint old sleepy traditional madras has evolved into fast paced hip hop metro chennai.
the place has given me a lot in life.friends for one. very trust able loving friends.and even more.
being a shopaholic the roads of t.nagar, pantheon road,luzz, spencers,city centre are all paradise.
and for foodies like me the city is loaded with food centres.from the road sides to the taj every morsel is worth the bucks and adds to a new unique mouth watering tempting experience.i cannot go on without adding planet yum gangotree juice shop on greams road..the discotheque s also deserve a mention...the luxurious multiplexes are toppers in the list of relaxers..satyam mayajaal to name..the educational institutes on par with the world add to the feather in the crown.the school,pssss, dav,st.johns so many..iit madras anna university srm and many more.and for people with a religious bend of mind there are ancient beautiful mind blowing temples ,parthasarathy temple,kabalishwarar temple and to note that mahabalipuram is not too far from the city.
the i.t lane can never have a boom tremendous like this with so many Indian and multi national top companies moving base here.and the medical facilities are on par with the best of the world.lower rates for paramedics and medicines make chennai the hot destination among people of the globe.
added to all this is the koovam,landmark, huge hotels,rani meyammai hall,raja muthaia hall,kollywood starts and the industry as such..from any city in the state the trains set for chennai are always full.the article will be incomplete without mentioning the attitude of 'chennaites'..fun loving,adventurous,a perfect mix of tradition and modernity well exposed but rooted to values and ethics.the city also boasts of a long list of sports persons with ample facilities available to shape them.one such is the chinnasamy stadium,.every year december chennai soothes one s heart with its december kacheri s. a true delight to a person with inlination for music.
and to this day i still feel like a kid when i step into the city.for it has given me some precious gifts in life.more than a person can ask for.i would love to be posted here for my work.
all said and done no amount of writing can express the love for chennai - my second home
