There were two this week. One, of a music group members from Pune, and second, my former students from VJIM Hyderabad. Both were great fun, full of stirring conversations and reminiscences. The best part is, these are likely to be regular - at least once a quarter!
I was in Hyderabad most of this time.
Reconnecting with Alok's family in Hyderabad. We lived in the same building. Alok was my friend and mentor through college, admission to Clemson University and through my Ph.D.
Meeting interesting colleagues like Thomas, Dayakara Rao and Sudha at Vignana Jyoti Institute.
A shoot we did for the first PGDM/MBA brochure. Set the stage for later ad material we did at KIAMS.
First batch of MBA- teaching them was fun. Deepa, Deepthi, and Ranjana Rudra are still in touch. Giri too, on fb.
Pooja was born, in December 1992. Daughter no. 2.
Saw a couple of good films, like Roja and Prabhudeva starrer Humse Hai Muqabla (remake of a Tamil original). It had an amazing dance sequence, Mukkala, muqabla, laila..
Also saw Darr, and the remake of Sleeping With the Enemy (shot in Greenwood, USA where we lived), which had a song 'Iqraar karna kushkil hai, inkaar karna mushkil hai, sung by Manisha Koirala on stage-my daughters' favourite). Nana Patekar starred as the villainish husband.
