The fact that they stay with you. Even those who have been with you a short while, don't give up on you. I have known a few for many years now. For instance, Nidhi Kanungo, though she is now an American, but we first met in Harihar, while she was studying at Kirloskar Institute, and I taught there.
Nidhi, her Mom with my wife and me, Indore, recently.
Many years later, we were in touch on Facebook, and she reached out during a visit, and her Dad and I and she went around the IIM campus and clicked a few memorable pics. Again, a couple of years ago, she called up and we met at the hotel she was staying in, and met-her Mom was with her this time.
She also dropped in at Prestige University on the way to Ujjain next morning.
Saumyaa Sharma is another Indori I have worked with at IIM, and we have remained in touch ever since. She was my teaching associate, and went on to work in Marketing Research- first with a friend in Bangalore, and later in Mumbai and Delhi.
Of course, Anshita Maharishi (now Abhishek Chetty) is another lovely Indori I have known for many years. From her student days at IMT Nagpur. She now works in Bangalore, but we have met a couple of times at parties that she organised. She has twins whom I have met too.
