PROUD TO BE A CHENNAIITE😊
being born and brought up here...
I LOVE NAMMA CHENNAI...
A CITY...
***where anyone can survive...
***where every one can find a living...
***where every kind of transport is available...
***which absorbs outsiders with warmth...
***which gives home away from home feeling for every migrant...
***which has entertainment for all kinds of people...
***which has prominent educational institutions...
***which has world level medical facilities...
AND...
***whose HOSPITALITY is THE BEST IN THE WORLD...

Superb thread Ramya...
sorry for the late response😛..

the most beautiful memory of my CHENNAi
is all the POURNAMI days i spent with my grandma...

She used to take me to the Ashtalakshmi temple in Besant nagar
and from there we would go to besant nagar beach
she would feed me the dinner brought from home telling stories...
i used to build castles in mud
it would look awesome in the moonlight...

and by the time we would return home... i would fell asleep on her lap in the auto itself...😆

She passed away when i was 17😭
