disclaimer..pic and hindi verses from the net**
Music was streaming in from the
mehfil… the terrace was crowded. A woman, confronted by the
urban sophistication, turned into something graceless and crude.
A spray of bullets surprised
everyone. The singer died and he never saw the woman who killed him.
His wife was caught with a gun in
hand and saw hundred eyes upon her… and
smiled.
Wonderfully written. you managed to convey a whole lot in so few words. :)
