ಮುಂಗಾರು ಮಳೆ

I know most of you don’t understand the title. It is written in Kannada(spoken in the state of Karnataka, Southern part of India). If you are wondering what is written its ‘Mungaaru Male’ which means Monsoon Rain. Wondering why did I write it?? It’s a name of a blockbuster Kannada movie released in 2006. I finally got the chance to see it. ( yes after four years!!) It really felt good seeing a Kannada movie after such a long time.
After seeing the movie, I came to a revelation that : You realize how much you miss something only when it appears in front of you. You may not miss it every moment or every day of your life, but it still lies in a small corner somewhere in your mind and heart waiting patiently to be discovered. Finally when you take a peek at it, you think how did I live all this while without it.
This was the exact feeling I got. I just missed living in Bengaluru after seeing the movie. I have spent the best years of my life in Bengaluru. The beautiful garden city of Kannadigas where people really know the true meaning of hospitality and friendship. I could never find the unique blend of traditional and modern outlook of life anywhere else.
Its just amazing how you move forward and one nostalgic moment takes you back in years crossing the breadth of time. I may live anywhere in the world but my heart lives in Bengaluru and it will always be my home.
