He shaan kunachi? Lalbaug cha raja chi... Lalbaugcha Raja Cha Vijay Aso...

"लोग लालबाग जा कर कोई भी छोटा मोटा गणपति देख लेते हैं और बोलते हैं , हम लालबागचा राजा  देख कर  आये  "

People go to lalbaug , see some random Ganpati & say we say Lalbaugcha raja

^ thus spake a  mahapurush ^

This time a spontaneous plan was made to visit Lalbaug (angelicized Lalbagh , लालबाग ) .With plans being discussed in the mess in the morning , itinerary being decided in the rock cutting thin section lab(where our fingers have been smoothed out by being abraded against carborundum powder  of fineness 220 mesh size)

In the mean time one more was pulled in , & by the time we were out of the main gate we were total 5 (the same mahapurush & 4 of us) .

For the first time I boarded the local , we got down at curry road & walked . At a spot it was written mukh darshan , so when joined the line . Moving forward we noticed it was written Mumbai cha raja , Lalbaug . Some doubts arose in our mind, we asked it came out we were at mumbai cha raja not lalbaug cha raja .

We thought we have come so far why back out , we moved forward . Our friend told us the replica was of Khandoba Temple in Jejuri that too extremely exact . He was enamored.

slowly we were creeping forward , my mobile camera didnt help much as soon as we reached the front I saw NCC cadets managing the crowds (I had heard at my NCC that we manage the people at lalbaug so you'll get quick entry :P) 

Pushed aside we got out from the side, my classmate noticed a not a so straight guy . I bought a Lalbaug poster

Mumbai cha raja gate

We didnt knew the way so we went 2 stations forward till Chinchipokli got down walked kilometres just to find that it was back of lalbaug

We were told Chintamani of Chinchipokli fullfills whishes , we wished for a change in mess menu remebering that the mess of Hostel 10 was the best in whole insti !!
