Prakash Tendulkar

When Viraf Mulla from Godrej Gang arranged for a meeting at Khar Platform # 5, I was excited. Actually that is an understatement.

I was so excited that I reached before time. A Railway Police constable noticed me, made a quick observation and determined that:

1) The person wearing red cap and shorts, pretends to be a foreigner but he is not a foreigner.

2) Although an eye-soar, he is harmless.

3) There is no likelihood of financial gain by probing this person.

He was absolutely right. Even the beggars and Ticket Checkers avoided me for exactly the same reasons. Intelligence or common sense, I guess, comes to these folks from their blood.

So he left me alone. Pranesh joined me soon after.

  Sarosh Mehta, Pranesh and Viraf Mulla.

  Herambh Patankar stands tallest amongst all.

  Venky (on the right) was excited, too. BTW, Venky is a short form of Venkat which itself is a derivative from Vyankatesh.

  That's me with friends from Mumbai Chapter of IRFCA. The actual crowd was double this size. Unfortunately, I lost a role of film covering remaining pictures.

I am looking forward to add pictures taken by others to this page.
