Main Toh Tanha Nikal Padha Tha Raah - E- Manzil Par,
Lekin Raaste Mein Dost Milte Gaye Aur Karwan Banta Gaya...
In all probability this is the last post of my MBA life. I am currently experiencing a rush of diverse emotions as I try to put my thoughts into this post.
Two years back when I landed in Bangalore for the first time, I was very sad as it was the first time I was going away from my family and I being the eldest amongst my siblings was the most pampered child. I thought that the succeeding two years of my life in MBA would be the worst, but now I am literally chewing up my words. These two years was the most life altering phase of my life.
Today I was very reluctant to go to the farewell party but was cajoled into going by my roomie Baba (Harshit). As I entered the audi, the feeling began to ink in that this was the last celebration in our college or maybe in my beautiful student life.
There were all my friends around be who were dancing and frolicking in joy abandon. As I stood there in the midst of the melee in the blaring music, the entire two years were flashing in front of my eyes. There was a wistful smile on my face which was just to stop the tears from rolling down because Mummyjee always told me 'Boys don't cry'. 15 days down the line I might not be even able to see some of my friends who had made my journey memorable.
I would miss getting up early in the morning to catch the 8 O'clock class.
I would miss running around the hostel asking my friends to help me with Finance.
I would miss doing my friends' assignments.
I would miss opening my books hardly 4 hours before the exams.
I would miss playing Counter Strike till the early dawn.
I would miss vehemently defending that King Khan is India's Biggest Superstar ever.
I would miss placing bets with everyone that Manchester United would win every match.
I would miss trying to put my friends' proxy attendance.
I would miss....................................................
The list is endless and I would need another two years to put on record all the things I would be missing.
I never thought that life would be so meherbaan on me to grant me such beautiful friends about whom I had already written in detail. Had it not been for my friends, these two years would have been a living hell for me.
I would like to thank my God for blessing and guiding me in these two years. I would like to thanks my family for standing by me and supporting me and loving me unconditionally.
If ever at any point of time in my life, I feel down or low and I would simply close my eyes and think of the beautiful time that I spent in my MBA college as the pleasant memories of this college would wipe away all my unpleasant ones.
I would like to thank my Parents in particular for making me walk on a path of roses all through my life, for giving me everything I ever thought of, for never ever telling me NO for anything, for loving me always. I am because you are otherwise I am nobody.
I would like to thank my faculty for imbibing in me the practical values of life and teaching me everything that I did not know and everything that is required to be known in this dog-eat-dog world.
I would like to thank my beautiful bunch of friends for just being with me through every crest and trough that we together underwent in our two years of MBA. I would be missing you all a lot !!!
Finally, I would like to thank my juniors for throwing such a wonderful farewell party which gave us an opportunity to carry some memories for a lifetime.

Gehri Dosti - The Finale
The journey 'Gehri Dosti' which had started off on 4th December 2009 has finally reached its finale with this post.
Over the last month and a half I tried to capture almost the entire two years I spent with some of my amazing friends. It always excited me to write about my friends and made sure that I bring out some or the other uniqueness in all my friends. Though I think I did not succeed in capturing their true persona truly nonetheless I made a sincere attempt to do so.
There are still many of my friends who are unique for different ways about whom I have not written. I am solely to be blamed for that because maybe I have run out of my language skills in order to capture their true persona and writing half baked write ups about them would be doing injustice to them. I wholeheartedly apologize to all my other friends about whom I was unable or rather incapable to write in detail.
But still I would try to capture some unique, cheeky, serious, humorous, anecdotes about them which follow below:
My Hostel (Shree Comforts B - Block) friends:
Mehul Sahastrabudhe - 'Do you have any stuff which is classified as ......???'
Nakul Charekar - My saathi in almost all our trips to Hyderabad.
Sanil Ajit Desai - The most modest person I have ever met.
Abhinav Kalanee - Bhai, Peeyo lekin jeeyo... Incredibly funny.
Sonal - 'Punjabi log kuch nahin kiye toh gaane ka album toh zaroor banate hai'
Sushant Saxena - You name any movie and he has it....(Pun Intended)
Taheer - The Underdog. In first sem he was four point noone and now he is seven point someone.
Rakesh - Good natured and a Music Guru
Nilay - Chess Champion
Sujeet - The only person who comes very very close to Rancho of 3 Idiots.
My female friends:
Nida Hassan - A relatively new friend and a champion Chemistry scholar. The salt we eat is Sodium Chloride.....:-)
Manny Saxena - The proverbial Tomboy
Sheena Mathur - Heyyyyy Sheena !!! Her voice echoes in our flat even in her absence.
Shivani Sharma - Never seen her without a smile.
My Counter Strike buddies:
Vivek Bhutani - Bhai even if I play with thak thak, then also you are a much better player than me.
Yaduraj - Great dancer but chip chip kar waar karne waala in CS.
Abhishek Nayyar - I guess the name is enough !!
Gopal - Full of life
Nilesh - Soft spoken Guy
Abhishek Agarwal (code 007) - Not interacted much but a very good CS player.
My College buddies:
Rahul Agarwal - Most underrated guy in our college.
Nishant Vijayvergia - awesome blogger and humorous guy.
Pulkit Mathur - The guy who can do no wrong.....ever.
Gurpreet Singh - Yellow is his favorite color...hehehehe
Mohammed Kashif - Probably the only shayar in our college.
Mitrajit Bhowmick - Arguably the best footballer in our college.
Saurabh Lunker - The MOST creative guy in our college (I mean it)
Though this is not an exhaustive list, but I have tried my best to capture all my friends here. In case I missed any, then I apologize to them in anticipation because even Dimaag Toh Bachcha Hai Ji.....
Apart from these I have interacted with many many people in college and would like to extend my wishes to them also.
My Orkut and Facebook friends - Good Luck to you all and hope we do remain in touch.
Good Luck and Best Wishes to even my friend's friends.
It was an amazing experience or I would like to call it an adventure with all you amazing guys over the past two years and I wish you all the very best luck and heartiest wishes in all your future endeavors.
With this its curtains down on my section of 'Gehri Dosti'

Mukul Kumar Ranjan
My next friend in the section of 'Gehri Dosti' is Mukul Kumar Ranjan.
I am writing about Mukul Bhai so late in 'Gehri Dosti' because I had to make sure that I portray the actual picture of what Mukul Bhai is all about - something which not everyone is aware of.
Mukul Bhai is a bunch of oxymorons put together favorably to get a niche picture that should not undermine the cult status that Mukul Bhai commands. Mukul Bhai is the most experienced amongst my bunch of 'hard nut' friends. But that was never a hurdle is all the fun we had over the year.
He was a late acquaintance to me as I got to know him only when I shifted to Jewels from my hostel. Initially I perceived him to be a kadak uncle types person. But 2 weeks down the line, we were sitting together pulling Adi's leg. This is the kind of a person he is. Mostly keeps to himself but never alienates himself from his flatmates.
His favorite is his roomie - Adi !!! When Mukul Bhai was to become Adi's roomie, we all knew that he would be in for an adventure. And this became evident when Adi asked Mukul Bhai about some veg and non veg (I censored it). Mukul Bhai must have been astonished but got a good measure what he could expect in the coming days.
Mukul Bhai adores Arjun a lot. He lovingly calls Arjun as Arjooooooooooon !! Hehehehehe.
Anything about Mukul Bhai would be incomplete without mentioning the kind of songs he listens. Ghazals occupy the top slot. Jagjit Singh is his favorite and for some reason best known to Mukul Bhai, he is addicted to the songs of Aashiqui and Saajan. You people can also guess the reasons, I am not telling any. :)
Mukul Bhai was the first person to predict that Baba (Harshit) often goes to the Himalayas because he is seldom seen in the flat. Laloo Prasad Yadav is his favorite politician, He enjoys listening to Lalu's english speeches.
Another aspect of Mukul Bhai is that whatever new thing he sees or hears, he makes sure that everyone in the flat also sees or hears it. He acts as a cooling effect of his roomie's histrionics. And yeah, let me type this before it lips outta my mind. Mukul Bhai has even seen a movie alone at INOX. That was a bolt from the blue to me.
Mukul Bhai is a very open hearted and a straight forward person. He just speaks his mind out. He loves riding bikes and is forever ready for any adventure that gets planned in our flat.
You can always find him in his room either listening to some songs or watching some movie. He can watch as many as three movies in a day. He can send people into splits by turning the most serious situation into a funny one. The best reaction which Mukul Bhai ever exhibited was when Adi lost his jacket which was presented to him by someone special??? Again I am not going into the nitty gritties. LOLS
Mukul Bhai must have been the happiest person on earth, when the blue gate near our college was removed. Kyun Mukul Bhai??
All said and done it was a jolly ride with him over the year we spent together.
So Dost!! Good Luck to you in all your future endeavors.

Rahul Prem
My next friend in the section of 'Gehri Dosti' is Rahul Prem.
The most striking feature of this friend of mine is his name - RAHUL PREM. Rahul was King Khan's name is most of his successful movies (Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, K3G etc) and Prem was Salman Khan's name in most of his successful films (Maine Pyar Kiya, Hum Aapke Hain Koun etc). Now the irony is that both King Khan and Salman Khan are not on talking terms and the only place you can find them together is in my friend's name.
For some reasons best known to him, he is affectionately called BOSS by us. Maybe it was because initially he was the second best CS player after Karan, but that name stuck to him. There are times when it feels odd to listen to his actual name as we have all been habituated to calling and hearing Boss only. But he is now hooked to FIFA 2010 which he plays with Mayank.
He is a soft spoken guy who mostly prefers to keep by himself but again as they say Silence is Gold. His rush of intelligence only becomes visibly when he speaks something. He is an extremely well cultured and well mannered individual. He doesn't argue much even if he knows that the other person is wrong. Maybe this habit was cultivated in him by being Sumit's roomie over the past two years coz Sumit comes up with such profound earth shattering theories that all Boss can do is remain dumbfounded. Hehehehehe.......
Another aspect of him is his whistling ability. He can sing any song completely just by whistling. This is the reason why I call him the 'Whistle Master'. He can dance also. He can patent his unique dance step which he created for the song 'Aahun Aahun'. LOLS.
So Dost!! Good Luck to you in all your future endeavors.
Hint about my next friend:
He DOESN'T like the song 'Dil Toh Bachcha Hai Ji'..... Can you believe it?????

Kapil Bhati
My next friend in the section of 'Gehri Dosti' is Kapil Bhati.
If there could ever be a live example of 'Size does not matter', then it has to be my friend Kapil or Bhati as he is more popularly known as. He is one of those guys who takes life as it comes. Perhaps that would explain the reason behind his long sleeping hours.
A total movie buff and could be seen watching movies in his room as late as five in the morning. He has a huge collection of downloaded movies and my only source to get all the latest Hollywood movies. He does not download any movie, all the movies in his collection are simply amazing.
He is also hooked onto various computer games like EA Sports' Cricket, Counter Strike and some other shooting game whose name I can't currently recall. The best part is he loves playing test matches in the Cricket game and plays exactly in the same fashion as the actual test matches are played. That is the reason why his virtual test matches also last five days !!!
His bike is like our 7th flatmate. His bike comes in handy in needy situations and almost everyone has rode his bike and he maintains his bike very well. He has still preserved his bike in probably the same condition as he bought it.
He is full of lighter veins and his laughter reverbrates like waves of thunders in our flat. He is still laughing while watching some movie as I type these lines. He has another distinction to his name. Yeah !! He was Aadi's roommate for the entire first year at our hostel. Now that in itself is a high recognition. For him finance is like his part of life. He would be appearing for CA exams later this year. Wishing him all the best.
I was told by many people to write about his style of walking also. Yeah, he has a unique style of walking which is akin to Catwalk. The typical walking with the beautiful alternate swaying of his hips. Hehehehehe.....
But he is one helluva soul with whom fun seldom ceases to exist.
So Dost!! Good Luck to you in all your future endeavors.

Mayank Suri
My next friend in the section of 'Gehri Dosti' is Mayank Suri.
My first interaction with him is someting which I remember vividly. It was centered around Homosexuality !!!!! (Before you can draw any further conclusions let me make it clear that we both are perfectly straight and both of us like girls !!!!). He is a techno-savvy guy who loves trying his hands at various computer games. Computer Games are like his viagra, he gets totally rejuvenated while playing them and can master any game within days of he playing it.
He is from Lucknow, so now you can guess what kind of a guy he can probably be. Yeah he is very much a tunde kabab wala. He wears his heart on his sleeve and is very passionate. He is an outdoors guy who is forever ready for any adventure or masti or fun on the run.
One thing which you can never forget once you meet him is his illuminating smile. His smile is such that you can carry with you, his smile pierces through all your misnomers and shines within like a sparkling diamond, his smile is something which gives you a crystallizing effect, his smile truly and deservingly qualifies undisputed for the proverbial 'Million Dollar Smile'.
He may not share every second of his life with you but he is very clear about his intensions. He is soft spoken but can get into fights like any guy can.......Jatin anyone???? He is a fun guy to be with and you totally enjoy his company.
There are certain things about him which he can actually patent and one of those things is his famous dialogue:
'Haan Bol Bachcha'
Currently he is hooked onto the FIFA 2010 game and plays it very religiously. His calm attitude is the perfect antidote to his more aggressive roommate. All said and done, Mayank is fun, unique and interesting.
So Dost!! Good Luck to you in all your future endeavors.

Aditya Agarwal
My next friend in the section of 'Gehri Dosti' is Aditya Agarwal.
Aadi is my flatmate and I got to know him well over the past one year as we lived together. Yeah he comes across as a different and unassuming soul.
I don't know but he has a certain flair that makes him very popular amongst people. Anybody who has met him even once would never tend to forget him or his mannerisms. But he is a very loyal friend as he takes birthday bumps on everybidy's behalf. Dost Ho Toh Aisa !!!
Now coming to his core competency. He is the financial analyst of Flat # 508, Jewels Apartments. He takes care of all the expenses incurred by us on his famed excel sheet. Every week we get a mail from him regarding all our expenses, balnce and dues. He is so quick at doing calculations that within a matter of seconds he pulls out his excel sheet and can tell how much money we spent on any particular day of a particular month.
Yeah and now I am going to reveal his worst kept secret !!!!!
HE HAS A GIRL FRIEND.........with whom he talks daily for hours and hours at a trot. Ask my flatmates and they will tell you. The day becomes very boring untill and unless you donot talk to Aadi.
He can make an awesome French Omlette and every weekend he goes to 'Ande Ka Funda' to learn how to make World's best Omlettes. Hahahahahaha.......
He is a miraculous human being. One day his rib bone disappeared and reappeared the next day. Now isn't that a miracle that even Albert Einstein could not find a solution to. He makes people laugh a lot around him and is always in the heart of all the celebrations held in our flat. Its almost like 'Party mein Aadi nahin toh Mazaa nahin'
So Dost!! Good Luck to you in all your future endeavors.

Sumit Dwivedi
My next friend in the section of 'Gehri Dosti' is Sumit Dwivedi.
Statutory Warning: This post might actually block your grey matter !!
Sumit is one friend of mine who everybody eagerly wanted to know about. But why??? Is he a prodigy or simply a misjudged IDIOT (Idiot now has a better meaning). Can totally catch you by surprise and makes sure that he himself is also assailed. He can dumbfound you by the preciseness of his preachings and at the same time your grey matter can indulge in a race against time to comprehend his illusions.
He has an answer to every question he is being asked and can answer even those questions which are unasked. The reason for which nobody knows or maybe nobody tries to understand. He is full of cliches and it is difficult to make out where his head and legs actually are.
Can come up with brain shattering theories and then dissolves the tadka of realism into it by saying 'Tumhari Kasam' to whoever he is interacting giving goosebumps to that poor guy!!!
One of his theory was so vituperative that it could have forced Amitabh Bachchan to commit suicide!!! Amitabh should be thanking Sumit for not making the theory at a public platform or else we would never have seen Amitabh acting in Paa.
An unconventional guy with uncanny looks and zany humour......but he is fun!!! Can have people around him in splits at the drop of a hat and has a sky towering self opinion. All said and done he is a good guy with no reservations. He can cook also and cooks pretty well.
No post about Sumit can ever be complete without mentioning about Rishabh. Well... Rishabh is Sumit's friend, philosopher, guide and all other similar phrases put together. The reason for this generosity????? Well, you will have to ask either Sumit or Rishabh. Kyun Rishabh???
His biggest strength is his bizzarity. It can actually catch you unawares and sometimes on the wrong foot. But most of the time he would have done it inadvertendly. At times he can rub you the wrong way but then will also amend it.
Has big dreams in his eyes and the will in his heart to cut across all hurdles that life may throw his way.
So Dost!! Good Luck to you in all your future endeavors.
Hint about my next friend:
The biggest hint that I can give is 'MICROSOFT EXCEL'
Statutory Warning: This post might actually block your grey matter !!
Sumit is one friend of mine who everybody eagerly wanted to know about. But why??? Is he a prodigy or simply a misjudged IDIOT (Idiot now has a better meaning). Can totally catch you by surprise and makes sure that he himself is also assailed. He can dumbfound you by the preciseness of his preachings and at the same time your grey matter can indulge in a race against time to comprehend his illusions.
He has an answer to every question he is being asked and can answer even those questions which are unasked. The reason for which nobody knows or maybe nobody tries to understand. He is full of cliches and it is difficult to make out where his head and legs actually are.
Can come up with brain shattering theories and then dissolves the tadka of realism into it by saying 'Tumhari Kasam' to whoever he is interacting giving goosebumps to that poor guy!!!
One of his theory was so vituperative that it could have forced Amitabh Bachchan to commit suicide!!! Amitabh should be thanking Sumit for not making the theory at a public platform or else we would never have seen Amitabh acting in Paa.
An unconventional guy with uncanny looks and zany humour......but he is fun!!! Can have people around him in splits at the drop of a hat and has a sky towering self opinion. All said and done he is a good guy with no reservations. He can cook also and cooks pretty well.

Karan Lokwani
My next friend in the section of 'Gehri Dosti' is Karan Lokwani.
If reincarnation actually exists then I am sure Che is reborn as Karan Lokwani. Both of them were instrumental in creating revolutions in their own right. Che initiated guerilla warfare on actual battle field and Karan made our entire college into a real time battle field.
I don't need to mention what I am talking about. But for some uninitiated people, I am talking about Master of Disaster (I think the name is enough to send chills down the spines of many). Yeah he is the guy who enkindled the passion of counter strike in our college and that passion which was a flame in its nascency has now turned into a full fledged fire.
Karan comes across as a small town simpleton but as they say appearances are always deceptive. The moment he opens his mouth, people are left flabbergasted at the astounding intelligence which seldom leaves people not bewildered!! A computer genius who has an incredible knowledge about the various complexities associated with any aspect of computers. During the first and the second semesters, he was the busiest soul during the IT exams when the entire hostel used to hustle and bustle into his room to get their doubts clarified. I was also a beneficiary.
Karan is a total video game freak and can play any game under the sun with equal excellence. He is a Champion Counter Strike player. For him Counter Strike is a way of life. He taught the entire hostel what CS was all about. He was the guy who had told me to try my hand at sniper if i am not able to get an aim. And Karan, it was because of that advice I am still stuck with sniper or Thak Thak as many people refer it to.
In the second semester, the situation had become so bad that even if we had exams at 10 in the morning we would be playing Counter Strike till atleast 6. We knew we would be screwing our exams but there are some things in life where profit or loss is not measured and CS was one of them. He had organized the Counter Strike tournament in our college which was a riproaring success. It was the first time that a CS tournament was organized in our college and it was possible due to the all out efforts put in by Karan.
He is an ennoble guy and his favorite song is 'Ya Ali Rehem Ali, Ya Ali'...... He has an assuaging smile which would break all the shackles of concern and misery. A magnanimous guy with tranquilizing mannerisms which would make any person interacting with him feel important. He is one guy whom people would love to confide all their huggers muggers and feel palliated that it would stay that way.
He is one guy whom maximum people in the college would start to miss after a couple of months as his popularity cuts across all the sections and genders of our college.
I am sure that I would never ever get to play CS once I finish my MBA and everytime I think about CS, I would invariably end up missing my friend Karan badly, very badly!!!
So Dost!! Good Luck to you in all your future endeavors.

Siddharth Jaithaliya
My next friend in the section of 'Gehri Dosti' is Siddharth Jaithaliya.
If there is one guy in our college who rose like a phoenix, then it is undoubtedly my friend Siddharth or Sid which we lovingly address him as.
He is one guy who is a perfect blend of unprecedented intelligence and humour. He can send people into splits even in the most adverse situations and can also give them jitters in the most pleasant situations. This is Sid for you.
He takes time to open up with people but once he reaches a level of comfort with people then he is like a house on fire. There cannot be even a moment when you can get bored in his company. He is a complete genuine person with no put ons.
He is an extremely gutty kinda guy who loves to trailblaze the least travelled routes. It is this trait of his that led to a revolution in the quizzing industry of India.
His website www.quizometer.com is the plank on which he revoultionalized online quizzing into a trend. His website registered highest ever clicks for a quizzing website in India. The website is now a hot property amomgst the best quizzers of the country. He has alliances with several topshot corporates of India like Timex and Financial Technologies who feel esteemed to be associated with quizometer.
He recently organized the 'Quiz Bowl', which led to heavy weights like Acer, Red Bull etc scurrying to be associated with it. All the major corporates of India participated in that show which was hosted by by Mitesh Agarwal - India's No.1 quizzer. Cognizant were the proud winners of this meticulous competition.
He even has a blog which gives you an absolute insight into the Indian Retail Industry. His blog is used by many renowned academicians all over the country to drive their research.
His life is full of cliches. He believes not studying for the exams is the secret of getting more marks!! His CGPA justifies this empirical cliche of his. So his sleeping hours remain the same or increase once exams are round the corner.
His philosophy in life is 'If things go your way then have fun and if things do not go your way then increase your fun' I am one of the beneficiary of this philosophy. Once you are in his company, you feel that life is almost perfect and is bereft of all sorrows.
So Dost!! Good Luck to you in all your future endeavors.

Gaurav Malhotra
My next friend in the section of 'Gehri Dosti' is Gaurav Malhotra
Probably the most famous Gaurav amongst the pleothera of Gauravs we have in our college. If this still does not ring a bell, then I have another technique. Just say that 'Bikes are bakwaas', the only guy who comes out to kill you is Gaurav Malhotra.
He is a synonym with fun, frolic and masti and after seeing him I totally believed in the proverb 'Appearances are deceptive'. Because one look at him and he gives you an impression of a particular bespectacled nerdy chocolaty boy whose cheeks girls would love to squeeze and say 'Cho Chweet'
But he is no so. He is an 'ammmaaazzing' person with even more amazing traits. He is got probably the best physique in college and shamelessly loves to flaunt it but he is not gay!! He can be soft spoken at times and at the same time blow away your eardrums. He has a golden heart which is akin to a spotless mirror.
Has been through unimaginable ups and downs all his life but has emerged even stronger despite facing tremendous adversities. Swimming against the tide is his forte. Loves life in the faster lane and carries a devil-may-care attitude up his sleeve.
He has been a scholarship holder throughout his MBA stint and is destined for better things.
Now coming to his core competency. Well...he can romance even a stick. I have never seen Delhi becoming Gurgaon by afternoon and again Gurgaon becoming Noida by evening!! The people who know him might have guessed what I am talking about??? Hahaha; Gaurav, that was the heights!!!
And finally let me talk about his girlfriend(s)...........BIKES. Totally bonkers about bikes. Can talk about them with every intricate detail from morning till noon, from noon till evening, from evening till night and from night till the next morning. He can tell a bike's model just by listening to its voice. Inshallah one day he too would become a proud owner of one of those sexy bikes he is bonkers about.
All said and done, its been a roller coaster ride with you buddy and I hope that this friendship just lasts forever...........
So Dost!! Good Luck to you in all your future endeavors.
Hint about my next friend:
1) Probably the only entrepreneur of our college.
2) I call him 'Pali ka Rajkumar'

Arjun Mimani
My next friend in the section of 'Gehri Dosti' is Arjun Mimani.
Well......Arjun has been my flatmate for almost two years now. So I think I have the liberty to informally write about him.
When we initially met, the first thing he asked me was whether I drink or smoke??? (BTW my reply was negative). This set the ball rolling for a two year journey with him. A well groomed and tidy guy who has a stickling for humour. He is very calm and composed even in drastic haphazard situations.
Never feels bad for anything and takes everything in his stride. One trait which we share in common is to take life as it comes and not keep unnecessarily worrying about things.
I would also like to reveal his worst kept secret; He can't ride a bike!!
He was the first person who taught me accounts in my freshman year (I would not like to elaborate on that!!!)
He values all his friends a lot, that is why he always has a bulging group of friends. He is absolutely honest in all his interactions with everyone. It is not that he is a geeky kinda person. When it comes to having fun, he is unprecedented.
The real Arjun appears whenever there is a birthday party. He brings with him all the vigour and energy which has now become a kind of hallmark of him. Just his presence in any birthday party would take that party to altogether a new horizon. His presence marks the doom for any cake as the cake might have felt, 'Yaar Arjun Aagaya!!' He is the always the first one to start the birthday proceedings but has that knack of getting away from the hell that breaks loose thereafter, unscathed.
Another aspect of him are his deoderants. Any brand's deoderant that Arjun uses increases that brand's market share by atleast 2% because of the amount of deoderant he applies.(That does not mean that he does not have a bath!! He baths daily). Because when he applies them, its fragrance lingers in our flat for hours.
No write up about Arjun can be complete without mentioning his infatuation for video games. Be it Counter Strike, GTA, Virtual Villagers etc, he plays them all and plays them well. Infact very well!!
And finally, movies. No matter how big a hit a movie is or how big flop a movie is, he watches them all and watches them in theatres. There have been times when he has watched three movies in a single day. Phew!!
So Dost!! Good Luck to you in all your future endeavors.

Rishabh Duseja
My second friend in the section of 'Gehri Dosti' is Rishabh Duseja.
Yeah he was my roomie for a week even before Harshit had come in. My first impression of him was of some reserved and sophisticated kinda guy but over the past two years almost, my pretensions about him took a severe beating. Hell!! he is damn fun. His witty one liners are a treat to the ears.
I still laugh at his quote '..........toh lanka mein kyun kooda?'. Hahaha. Very particular about cleanliness. You should visit his room and see his table and wardrobe to believe what I am actually writing. Learnt Counter Strike from Karan (more about him later) but now almost rivals him at it.
He always carries a tweeky smile on his face. His bike was the savior to many expeditions which we underwent over the past years. I guess he is a quick learner; Ask the people around him how fast he learnt Table Tennis. He was my doubles partner at Coliesium who lost the match because of my over confidence. His trusted aide and Man Friday is Sumit (again more about him later), who does not even breathe without asking Rishabh.
Researches for new games on the internet. He showed us how to play the feather game on the internet!!! (I hope you got what I meant). In his company life is always jolly.
And yeah, this might come as a shocker to many. Rishabh is ultra ultra religious, who goes to the temple every thursday and has even been to Shirdi recently. There is a small temple in his room too in which he worships daily.
Can be awfully sarcastic at times but is mostly quiet. When dragged into an argument, few people can overcome him.
He is a sincere soul whose company people feel extremely important and jovial.
So Dost!! Good Luck to you in all your future endeavors.

Harshit Agarwal
I am starting off my 'Gehri Dosti' section by writing about my roomie Harshit Agarwal.
Kahela tensun hai
Bhakh peeche se maar diya(In Counter Strike) etc etc etc
All these phrases leave me in continuous splits for at least an hour daily. Well I am gonna write about a simple boy from Basti.
A computer Engineer by profession, this boy is a total kid at heart. At times you would be surprised by his sheer innocence. He is a very straight forward kind of guy and indulges in full on masti.
I and him are always at loggerheads as to whether Basti(the place where he hails from is a village or a city). All my friends fondly call him BABA, but its only me who calls him by some other name. I am sure if he reads this post, he will surely understand what I am talking about. But I would not write all that here.
He sets his alarm to 7:15 AM, but finally wakes up at 8:00 AM to catch the 8:30 AM class. One of the few guys who accept me the way I am. His knowledge in computers is unparalleled. He is also a web designer. His website www.mba10.com is well known among the college fraternity.
I always tell him that you are too innocent to be living in Bangalore and that too I sometimes wonder how he survived in Bangalore for the past 4 years. He is a Computer Engineer grad from Ramaiah College-one of the best engineering colleges in India.
His favourite game at Amoeba is the dancing equipment on the second floor and now he has developed immense liking for bowling. He celebrates all his victories whole-heartedly no matter how big or how small his victories are.
He calls his antique bike his DULHAN. I always tease him that his bike is fit for museums and he retaliates, but its all fun and done in the right spirit.
Well..... I have talked a lot about this simple boy from Basti. But who is he?
He is my roomie-HARSHIT AGRAWAL-The best roomie anybody can expect.

Ae Waqt Ruk Jaa..........
Ae Waqt Ruk Jaa.....
Tham Jaa, Theher Jaa.....
Waapas Zara Daud Peeche.....
Don't need to say that the above song lyric is from King's biggest hit ever - DDLJ.
This is the lyric I have been humming over the past few days...Reason: The feeling has sunk in that only 60 odd days remain for my MBA to get over and the beautiful journey through which I have sailed over the past year and a half would soon come to an end.
There were many ups and downs through my beautiful journey but had it not been for God's mercy, my family's love and support and my friends company, this journey would have been a path of thorns rather than a bed of roses. I have always thanked God and my family for always being with me but have not really done that to my lovely bunch of friends.
So over the next month I would be writing about all my friends who helped me traverse through my MBA journey, under the heading 'Gehri Dosti'; beginning from this Sunday. I would write about a friend of mine on every Sunday, Wednesday and Friday.
And everytime I write about one of my friends, I would give the hint of my other friend about whom I would be writing next. The order in which I write about my friends follow no sequence but random permutations.
So here it starts.........
Hint about the friend with whom I will be starting off 'Gehri Dosti':
Hint No. 1: Bhak Maar Diya
Hint No. 2: Karan, Mama Ki Gun Lekar De Mujhe
