During the covid lockdown life was unimaginable. Everyday night i used to walk in the road near CMBT Bus station.
I will be lone person walking with sometimes crossed by police patrol vehicle.
It gives a mixed feeling like i am in a military zone or myself landed in an alien planet.
Only relief is some odd vegetables trucks going to koyambedu market which gives hope that we are in our city only.
In the early mornings we can see few vegetable vendors going quickly for their purchases.
I wonder how busy the road in front of CMBT bus station throughout the night and day. It was like world came to an end and i am the lonely survivor wandering. Sort of Big screen Hollywood movie came in front of me.
The loneliness made be stronger and self dependent. Every dog in that road became a friend of mine.
Life changed in a way like speaking to a human is a stressful activity. Silence is sweet.
After few months lockdown was released slowly and it was difficult to mingle with the crowd as i was living a lone ranger life.
Slowly Chennai got back to normal mode and our life got into regular routine.
Still there is a confused state and little hesitation in moving around. I dont understand is it a strange phenomenon in myself only or it is a common state for everybody.
Anyway thank god that people get into their regular chores and the city is busy with traffic jams.
Stand up Chennai....all the best
