    Good luck MM - believe you will need all of it to survive beyond 6 months, and all the circus janitors…let alone the sharks, wolves and jackals of Bharti, where work culture is anything but work - while life seemingly is all work and no play. sharpen your daggers or your back hide - you would need to do both anyway….. oh u poor soul….fate has fastened you to fakedom and to be stabbed from behind…...
