Do ghante traffic, teen ghante khada rahuga mai, koi baat nahi. Mai result ka wait kar raha hu ab. Ab flying cars se kum nahi chalega ab. Aaj se dus saal baad yeh mat keh dena ke sorry hua nahi. Nahi, nahi, mera time laga hua hai iss par. 
(I am cooperating with the development of Mumbai and I'm fine with traffic. I will wait until the work is completed. I hope after ten years they don't say that development couldn't happen. It will not be acceptable as I've invested my time.)
