My chennai life @ 8 months and 8 days

I visited Chennai very few times from birth. Guy from born from Madurai dist, he always claim that Madurai is best compare chennai without any valid reason. Even I had the same mindset up-to a year back. I got a opportunity to stay and work in chennai city for couple months.

I am going give, how was my chennai life and observations about the city .. few things may looks comparison between chennai and Bangalore/Madurai dist.. . because I spent, most of time in Madurai dist and Bangalore.

Good things about Chennai:
  • It is very big city.. when can compare with Mumbai.. not with Bangalore or Madurai
  • Well connected bus service within urban and sub-urban
  • Strong city railway system
  • City wakes up very early .. ( Madurai city never sleeps :-) )
  • Good roads and maintenance also good
  • Moving traffic
  • Every where flyovers and subways
  • Traffic signal power on by 6:30 am at max 7 am and traffic police presence also
  • Plenty of street /road lights
  • Share auto concept
  • Plenty of job opportunities for younger generation
  • IT AND NON IT jobs options are high
  • Beach
  • theaters and ticket cost
  • Very big industrialist city
  • Power of traffic police
  • Lot of temples.. ( can not compare with Madurai.. because Madurai itself temple city)
  • Educational institutions
  • City planning
  • human resources and skills

Few things which I did not like

  • Cleanness
  • Very costly food even in road side shop
  • People behavior and respectfulness
  • shops and shop owners in CMBT bus station
  • Not much other language movies
  • Share auto drivers behavior
  • Cheat people probability is high
  • Cray about movies / actors
  • Power cut
  • Very scary running in the roads
