I am just back from there and they have put this structure (a Cycle oozing out of a back-seat of a car) on the gate so you can not take your car in. Parking is available in ‘Bhagwan Das Lane’ as in previous years. I saw ‘Rajesh Sharma’ at the gate, one of those regular actors 5 odd years back , my 2nd innings hang-around time π
