After following up with Pankaj Tripathi for almost a year, I finally got to meet him in his house on Madh Island, which is far away from the hustle and bustle of muggy Mumbai and reminiscent of a beautiful village. You can enjoy the scenic view of the ocean from his living room and balcony. Pankaj can’t stop raving about the beauty of the sea. “If you look at the ocean from here, you can see how calm and peaceful it appears. At night, around 500–600 boats pass by, all of which have colourful bulbs. It then appears as though a village has been built over the water. You get a good reflection of the moonlight in here.” He can afford to live in peace and tranquility today. However, his priorities were different when he first came to Mumbai. Then, he too wanted to live in a place that was near malls, multiplexes, and restaurants. He couldn’t afford such a place then, as he simply didn’t have that kind of money. Now, when he does have the money, he has chosen to follow his heart and go back to a kind of village life, replacing the ghats of the Ganges with beaches in the Arabian Sea.
