As you turn through the pages of this book, you get more immersed in it. It's not a suspense, nor a horror and neither a thrill...

So when you are kind of late or if the train is late or if yours is a middle station then most probably the fourth seat is what you get. More than a seat it is a mental satisfaction that you have a seat while others are standing.   Mumbai Local (Pictur...
