Apparently, as you move downwards, you will fall in love with the beauty of the first downpour.
The aroma that blends in
When those droplets of rain descend, a fresh earthy smell which it emits has its own significance. Scientifically speaking as the rain falls on the dry soil, it oozes out a smell called petrichor. No scent in the world can match this heavenly essence. This aroma is something you must not give a miss this rainy season.
When the seashore becomes blustery and wet

Lekin pehli baarish mein bhigane ka mazaa hi kuch aur hai. And, who doesn’t want to get wet in this first down pour? Not just kids but you will see the everyone enjoying the first rain. While the beaches get crowded with the rain lovers, the sea-facing destinations become a hot destination. Amidst those tiny droplets pouring down, the sea waves splashing high at the coast become a mesmerizing scenario one should not miss.

When the flock of umbrellas create a rainbow
Amidst the shower and clouded sky, an array of colorful umbrellas pop out and transcend into a rainbow. The sight of pedestrians carrying umbrellas create an aesthetic balance. The markets display a variety of umbrellas to help you give the rain a miss. And if you were under the perception that only kids aspire to possess themed umbrellas then you're definitely mistaken. The youth are equally enthusiastic and do not shy away from buying an umbrella of their choice. And when it comes to the women squad, our umbrellas got a swag man. Those pinks and blues and purples, if you spot on the street, you won't need to be told who it is then.
Chai and pakodas never tasted so yum
When that thunderstorm makes its presence know amid the gushing rain water, the quota of hotness is sufficed only by the combo of chai with some hot pakodas. While feasting on those hot crispy pakodas a sip of chai is like a shot of tequilla. While walking on those wet streets, you can see vendors selling hot crispy pakodas whose smell will not let you go without tasting some. And if anytime your plan of an outing is spoiled by the rain, no worries as a chai pakoda party at your home will be the coolest thing while watching the pouring rain outside.
Kids got a reason to play
Moma is gonna scolds but kids won't budge as sitting at home, while it's raining, is not cool. From dancing in the rain to playing, making and sailing those paper boats becomes the prerogative of all kids. Common, we all did as kids and obviously those accompanying scoldings for falling ill later. But, who cares until the fun quota is fulfilled.
The breeze was never so romantic
