/> The incessant rains in Mumbai have claimed yet another celebrity casualty. Dino Morea woke up on Monday morning at his Carter Road residence in Bandra to the sound of a nerve-wracking crash outside his bedroom window.

Shudders Dino, "At first I thought it was an explosion. God Forbid, that's the last thing we need. I quickly jumped out of bed—I was alone for a change, ha ha—and peeped out to see the huge tamarind tree in my compound had crashed down on my wall."

So was the damage sizeable? "Yes, an entire wall and the fence has been completely broken. Fortunately the tree missed the house by inches. However not so fortunately I had to leave for Spain to address a gathering of NRIs on 26 July just a few hours after Nature stuck my house.

Naturally I didn't leave in the best of moods. My brother Nicolo who stays with me (my other brother Santino is pursuing a career in showbiz in LA) will take care of the damages.

But I don't like my home to get even a scratch specially not when I am leaving the city, please!. Some people are like that about their cars or girlfriends. I'm super-protective about my home. I built it brick by brick."

Dino's three-day stay in Spain has been dampened by the incident. "I'm not going miss out on the fun. If it rains dames in Spain I've got my umbrellas ready. But I'd have enjoyed myself far more if this didn't happen.

It may or may not rain in Spain. But why does it have to rain so much in Mumbai? How much more pounding will our city have to take?"
