@41° 1 pm. Sanchore, Rajasthan-Gujarat Border

Rajasthan to Gujarat Deserted National highway. Frequency of vehicles passing by one every ten or more minutes.

But there are people walking on sole (or soul) melting hot roads. Halting at scanty shadows of roadside bushes. Plenty of them.

Women in Pinks and Yellows, men in yellowish brownish Whites.

Schoolchildren balancing triple seat ride over a cycle.

And maintaining a safe distance from all these

 I see a schoolboy on his knees, proposing a classmet in filmy style....

Gulab to khilaten hi hain
