While I was in the final year of my college, two of my friends insisted that I join them for a dinner date at Mahabalipuram, which is located almost 60kms from Chennai. Little did we know what was in store for us that evening. Right from the time we started at around 7 PM, it was non-stop action. It was raining like hell and half way through, we had a flat tyre and had to change it, soaking in the rain. Finally, we managed to reach the restaurant by 9.30PM, only to find there was a massive blow-out of the transformer and hence no electricity. Somehow, we managed to eat something and started our journey back. Again after traveling for a few miles, the car developed some snag and there was no way of getting any assistance at that time, especially when it was raining so heavily. So, we had no choice other than hiking our way back to the city. Finally, after trying for two hours, we managed to get the help of a kind family, who brought us back to the city.
