The porter asked him for fifty rupees to take him one. But Dilip Kumar waved him away and walked out of the station. He wandered through the streets and asked a number of people, but could not find a room cheap enough for him.

Finally, we spotted a policeman and pulled up to ask directions.

Off we went through a series of left and right turns, traffic lights and even a short jaunt up a one-way lane the wrong way. Twenty minutes later we arrived at a main interesection. ‘‘Now you will be all right’’, announced our guide. ‘‘Just turn here, stay on the road for eight or nine kilometers, and you are there’’. With that he opened the door, got out, replaced his helmet and strode briskly off.
