Parijat expereince at Mumbai airport

We were waiting at the airport for Manu to arrive. The mumbai airport has been tremendously redone, it looks modern, a much different place from wah tit used to look couple of years back, a pleasant change. Well, we reached at 1245am, Manu as usual doe not have any phone contact, so we have no information about his coming. There are thousands of people who have come to receive their near and dear ones. Probably 4-5 persons per passanger and that makes a small are at arrival look like a Mela. We checked all across, there are two sides from where people are coming , so one can not go and spread out to check for your passenger. Pareen kept standing for almost 2 hours, anxiously waiting and both me and Meena had their turns on sitting in the railing. Finally at 230am Manu arrives, what a handsome man he looks and Meena is so delighted seeing him and so all of us. We hug him and check why was he so late and he tells its late because of mom insistence to get the broken lap top for which the custom officer was asking for a $ 300 custom duty, he had another lap top that he uses for his work, the second one Meena asked him to bring if we can get it repaired in India. After much argument, when he asked for an off line payment of $100, Manu tells him that he has only $5 in his purse, which he shows him, the custom officer let him go with out making any payment.
