Romancing the rain
Monsoon sure has something magical about it. The pitter-patter of the rain drops, a refreshed look all around—it's as if the rain rejuvenates one's soul.

I wonder why most of them follow trends and not use their imagination to present things differently rather than follow a hit formula to the extent that the audience gets bored of it.
