Met Remy!!!

I saw Remy the other day in Mumbai on my way to office, no not the electric shock received hair styled one whom I have mentioned in the first ever article written by me in school but Remy of the Ratatouille fame. Remy, you know, the rat that played the protagonist in the Disney movie ‘Ratatouille’ yes I saw him. Now you might ask how I am so sure that it is Remy itself. Well I will tell you how?

I saw him during the busy, rush filled morning office hours with vehicles jumping signal and all across there is a sense of urgency to get to destinations fast. And here he was waiting to cross the big intersection beneath the flyover where vehicles ply to and fro to four directions and more in addition to the multitude of people on the street running and walking in rush.

He first scurried across the road to beneath the flyover across the zebra line bordering the vehicles awaiting the light to turn green. Then he jumped the signal to cross diagonally across the road dodging and scurrying unscathed between the wheels of bus, car, truck, and in between the running and hurrying feet of people to safely reach the other side of the rode.

Once he reached the other side of the road he hopped onto a rickshaw awaiting green light at that end of the road and carried on to his next adventure.

Who other than Remy would be so adept to the ways of living in the city. He who has lived in Paris wouldn’t find the hustle and bustle of Mumbai a great challenge. :D
