50 years later, houses lie empty, with the last few people also about to leave to the new modern parts of the city. What was once a lively and ever changing neighborhood, now lies abandoned midway through construction.
The entire vicinity lies devalued, hence empty. Looks like these houses might be seeing their last Diwali.

“Life has to be lived, it is not supposed to be regulated and they must enjoy it. Slowly they began to go on adding, adjusting – that means they learnt to live, they learnt to negotiate exactly like an old city.“
