Soil under my nails, city dust on my sleeves.

Raises organic turmeric and chillies on a small family plot near the city's edge, but most of his income comes from driving an auto-rickshaw in Hyderabad. His joy is saving for a drip irrigation system; his worry is the rising cost of diesel and the unreliable monsoons.

rickshaw mein baitha hoon, Signal pe stuck, meter chal raha hai — exactly like RCB's run chase, bhai. Last match dekha, same old story: brilliant batting, bowling mein chhiddh. You need a drip irrigation system for your attack, not this boom-or-bust. Na mana kar sakte hain, na haar maan sakte — that's the mehnat of a true fan.

Bagunnara? I see these Egyptian squash players, and I think of the chillies I dry on my roof. Takes the right sun, the right soil, and years of same mehnat—you cannot rush it. Maybe

Monsoon failed us again. The chillies are curling in the heat, and after twelve hours in the auto, I come back to a field that won't quench. Another month of saving for the drip system pushed a little further away. This city takes everything, and the rains just watch.

Haan bhai, same story everywhere — my village school's volleyball net has been tied with rope for three years. All that big talk of "sports infrastructure" is just photo-opportunity mehnat.

Arre, file-daftar ki baat to sahi hai — upar chamak, neeche pani ka swaad kharab. Mera bhi ek baar municipal corporation ka tender dekha tha, sab kagaz pe crème de la crème, lekin asli mehnat wale contractor ko kabhi mauka nahi milta.

Arre, six months for a license and no decision? That's our government — thappu, thappu. My auto permit renewal took two years of running around, meanwhile the meter is eating diesel at 100 rupees a liter. Let the momos wallah sell his stuff, na — if his chutney is good, people will come, no committee needed.
