Made two new friends in Urmila and Anindya today. Turns out Urmila knows our friend Budhu from Knoxville from her college days. And Anindya grew up in Durgapur for some time and is fairly close to my college friend days – Nilanjan!!

Rishi had left Narendrapur just around the time I was getting in. But I had heard a lot about him from our common friends like Rahul, Navin and Rajeev. We have been Facebook friends for a long time but never had a chance to meet. Shampa, his wife, is actually from Durgapur and we have a lot of common friends between her and me and also between her and Sharmila. And she is my Facebook friend too!

But our paths physically had never crossed! Till today … at Hasnu’s wedding!

I get to meet friends that I had completely lost touch with! Mohsin and Tamanna from Dallas!
