Back home in Darjeeling, electricity outages last for days. And so, with our phones, laptops and power banks completely drained of charge, we resort to the old-school ways of chilling — sitting around and swapping stories about our lives, travels and people we’ve met. Someone inevitably pulls out a guitar and it’s more festive than what we would otherwise watch on screen.

Several platforms across the city have revived this old-school style of entertainment that also provides a stage for upcoming talents to show their skills. One such intimate gathering of 30 is being organised by Motojojo this Saturday that will include live music and a poetry session.
