3. Usha - defined what dance in complete abandon actually is. Salute your spirit

4. Abhijit - a good singer doesn't require practice, my dear. You are too good.

I am blessed to have been there soaked up all the love and affection.
Thanks PMGS and all of you who came.
If the remaining too made it would have been fun.

virtually. Batchmates living and working around the world, met everyday and shared
many things of interest, had raging debates, agreed and disagreed on
everything........the group was split down the middle on politics, religion and what-have-
you. But people by and large remained civil and restrained themselves from making
