Pheroze, let’s go over the list once more, shall we? I hope our readers and followers will understand the reasons for these ‘unseasonal’ awards shows. After all, it’s hardly the time when people would like to step out for any kind of ceremony. I mean, it’s the city’s wettest July, and it might not have many takers,” Lady Flora asked her friend, looking a tad worried as she ran her eyes over the list of categories, sipping on homemade pudina chai and nankhatais from Paris Bakery, Sir PM’s all-time favourite bakery in the area. In fact, he was relishing these baked goodies at their indoor adda at St Thomas Cathedral, until he realised that his friend’s tone demanded his full attention.
Tapping the crumbly particles off his slightly damp trenchcoat, he lowered his bifocals to read it carefully. A few minutes later, he looked up at Lady Flora with a broad smile, and said, “I think the average Bombaywallah would fully relate to this list. It’s a tribute to them, and this city, both of which this newspaper conveys through its pages, so let’s go ahead and share this sneak peak of our top categories and winners for this inaugural edition. We hope you appreciate the list.”
