I was waiting at the counter of a stationery shop when the guy standing next to me started speaking on his mobile. Apparently he was giving directions to someone.

"Yes, yes, you get down at Dadar station and come upto the temple."

I guess that at this point the fellow at the other end did not understand which temple was being referred to.

"अरे वो गोल टेम्पल, bomb-blast वाला" said this guy referring to the Hanuman Temple near Dadar Kabutarkhana.

I did a double take. What have we Mumbaikars come to? We are now using the blast sites as landmarks :-(
