Jai Ho

Ramji and I were at the Abercombie and Fitch store to buy a few clothes. The store was a little crowded, dimly lit and great music was being played. They were all excellent songs and we were enjoying the music.

We were waiting in the long queue to bill our clothes. All of a sudden the music changed  - to Jai Ho. It was amazing! The elated feeling and the pride we felt at that moment for being an Indian was seen on the face of every desi that was there in the store.

That was the moment when I felt that we may be miles away from home, eating different cuisines, wearing western clothes but we are still Indians at heart.
