Got up this morning and checked the news. Turns out that the container depot (ICD) that we had visited two days back, and where our stuff was stored for a few days, caught fire yesterday.

It took about 12 hours for the firefighters to control the blaze. Thankfully there were no personal injuries, but the loss to property is sizeable - unofficial estimates for the total loss are around INR 500 crores (USD 110 MM). This happened hardly a day after our stuff had moved out of that warehouse! Close call...I guess a thank you trip to the nearest Mandir is on the charts now.
