1.
It starts when the summer becomes so unbearable that you forget all about last year and start praying for rains.
2.
You just want the rains to come and will use any means necessary.
3.
But it's too busy being a tease.
4.
But even before the petrichor wafts away, you're begging for it to stop.
5.
Some enjoy it more than others...
6.
And for some it's wayyy more harrowing.
7.
Yet somehow, Mumbaikars won't stop showing off to everyone else.
8.
Suddenly, some foods become wayyy more delicious.
9.
And the sea link becomes a thousand times more photogenic.
10.
And the city becomes infinitely more interesting.
11.
It gets too dirty to recreate the pleasures of your childhood but that's easily solvable with some jugaad.
12.
You're so used to the incessant flooding that this seems like a plausible way to meet someone.
13.
And you don't even blink twice at some strange-ass scenarios.
14.
Rain gear becomes more important than your wallet and keys.
15.
Because we won't let anything stop us from doing what we gotta do.
16.
Even if it feels like everything is crumbling around us...
17.
And our survival skills top those of any olympic athlete.
18.
Because at the end of the day you're a Mumbaikar and you do what you do.
