It was the end of the work day in late September. Our team
was still remote after the lockdown re-opened, but I worked
in the studio from time to time. I was sitting in my chair with
my feet up on the desk, enjoying the rain pouring outside my
window. After a while, the sound of the rain began to seem
oddly louder, reverberating and more urgent. I happened
to glance down and to my shock my chair was already sub-
merged in rainwater that was rapidly and violently gushing
into the office. Looking back, for me, this would be the defin-
ing moment of the year 2020. Hyderabad was under water for
weeks, for the first time in over a hundred years. Our studio
remained waterlogged for over ten days, something no one
saw coming, or could have avoided.
