A phone rings in Delhi. An emotion dials from Bombay. Delhi has a history of a couple of thousand years; Bombay is humble at 150. Yet, Bombay stands out like a man in a group of queers, and has all the variety that makes it the face of the modern Indian civilization.
Delhi is home to a girl, but her womanhood has the scent of Bombay. The boy walks on the byways of Bombay with a certain authority, listens to music endemic to the city, and hunts for a rhythm composed in Delhi.
Today, Bombay has everything that the boy boasts about but not the music of Delhi.

It is a very poetic piece.
And the music is back in Bombay. Can you turn it down a notch? :P
an emotion dials from Bombay --> The boy walks on ... the transition sounds strange.
Well, is the ambiguity of characters deliberate
I like the sync created between the two cities. Two diverse cosmopolitan cultures...
A person who aims at nothing is sure to hit it.. i m quite sure you did...
Should I now call you the master of personifications..?
Very apt, isn't it?
