Mumbai's Saturday Night High !!!

The way of life that we associate with the City that never sleeps , the city of dreams - Mumbai regards the last day of the week - Saturday in the highest order. For this is the day where in you get to set your priorities in order as per your own wishes. For on this day you don't have to face the bickering orders from a senior at your workplace , you don't have to answer the numerous calls / texts from your loved ones about the going on day at work , you don't have to sweat your brains out about reaching your destinations at time , you don't have to worry about sleeping and waking up the next morning at the stipulated hour lest you miss the Fixed Morning local and above all the city that we are talking about in this particular post offers something for every age group to enjoy the day.
Regardless of the above written lines the Saturday Night is something that's revered and sometimes even asked for in wishes in front of the Gods to arrive a bit early for it is something that gives our generation a high even  with its thought. The bustling market places , the never sleeping streets of the suburbs , the classiness of the Southern Island , the discos , the pubs , the lounges , the eateries ,   the road side vendors are a part of the folklore for who so ever has spent even a chunk of his life in this city.
The high that people get in a party in this city be it a club in South Mumbai or a cheap disc in the suburbs can never be tasted in any other city in this country. The free flowing alcohol , the  chilled out , non interfering people , the handsome hunks and the pretty eye candies all mixed together give rise to a cocktail of emotions going on pretty rapidly in the mind of an individual who cannot refrain himself from getting drowned and drowsy under its effects. I would not like to talk about the food tastes , the availability of the drinks , the pleasing crowd for there are many web sites to let the people get accustomed to the same rather its about the pleasure of dancing with your friends or loved ones to the ear bursting music , the anxiousness about going forward and speaking to that pretty stranger who has been smiling at you through the evening , the feel of the atmosphere soaking into your mentality , the energy that lets the individual to think about going to multiple parties through the night , the spirit of the moment , the emotional outbursts all combined into a single piece of non mellowed down life that enthralls the common masses up to a limitless point.
A wise man once said that whilst you are working your life will be shaped by what you do on the weekdays and how much hair you let down on the weekends , i don't  know if i am the only one but this city's Saturday Night fever does write in itself a melancholy that holds these above written lines pretty much in the true sense.
For here in this insomniac city it is not about the money that you earned through the hard working toiling hours you put through the week days rather it is about the money that you spent on the garnering the fun you had on the weekends and yet remain humbly grounded for life never really gets epitomized by the social status that you cherish or the coolness that you show off in front of the masses , rather it is about something abstract , something that makes a man or a woman in fact overwhelm themselves with its high.!

P.S -  This was writtenlong back on a rather dull Saturday Night in Navi Mumbai ( Separated from Mumbai in almost every aspect) :P
