Yariyaan…

It was a wonderful day today. 

Frankly speaking due to one family reason I was not very happy since morning and was really hurt since last Friday as I lost my lovely granny Padmaja Aaji. very much stuck in the things we required to make at home. But it is said that “friends always break the doors when you want to stay alone and when you want to leave everything behind, friends will come to your way.” Directly or indirectly, today it was the same.

This has a background actually, before few days approximately on 24^th June 2016, my Best buddy Sourabh Malakar {He thinks that he has right to fight with me.. and hurts a lot sometimes..} formed a whatsapp group.{obviously I told him to do so, and he accepted it today} Let me first introduce you with Sourabh. Papu... Yes we called him paapu, my bangali sadi machchi buddy{The one with whom I had so much of fights, even today.. to whom I dared to abused, he only taught me how to.. upps not now...}…. Actually in my college group Sourabh is a first person who became my friend. It was 2000 when 11^th Std admissions became centralized. Our batch was the first. I was truly disheartened with the allotment I received. I was from Girls school and wanted to join a college where I can feel safe. Where my colony brothers were already studying. {It was a psychology at that time… leave it...} I was from core Marathi medium and was very uncomfortable with the allotment I got. I was scared actually… As I heard ample of good things about Hislop College at that time... {Now we are Happy that Hislop College got Heritage Tag, and it is a historic moment for the city and proud feeling for us… anyhow I was there for 5 years...} Anyways, I accepted to enter there. Let us cut the detail here… it has entirely different story. So, on the very first day of admission I saw Sourabh there… now let me clear one more thing, this fellow was not new to me… We were from same colony and was known to each other, sort of bachpan ke dost {still we are even after he became paraya dhan...but his name changed.. I call him Toshikapati now..}, as we were together in our 10^th classes as well, batches were different but we used to meet at our class monthly exams on centers. One more person from this class was there and he was Ashish Wankhede{The one who always said, Mrunal abey jara ladkiyon jaise treat kiya kar ... hey hey.. don't know why?}. But not known. So by seeing sourabh there I and my baba was like, yes koi to pehchan ka hai… Fortunately we were in the same section{Me, Ashish and sourabh actually have a memorable family bonding..}… and here from this place we got a group after around 7 months. {Again a different story is there between these months and a story behind creation of this group or can say gang}

Anyways, lets come on the topic of today… it always happen, once you start thinking about your old days you just start moving towards the details… hmmm, yes coming on topic.. Today I was not that happy but in the second half scene totally changed… we had a con call before, Neha, Sangeet, Sourabh and Me… and finally accepted to meet in the college itself... between had a discussion with Nazim {His, Achcha Hai.. Acha Hai.. style no one can forget} and Ashish.. Actually Ashish picked me and Nazim so, we three reached in the college first. Wow… it was awesome... after 10 long years we entered there. After 10 long years we were meeting. We went to our usual place {behind the stage where we actually spent our college days after our group was formed}. We were getting nostalgic there, all the memories just flashed. We were like speechless. Visited our classrooms when Sourabh joined us and took pics there. It was actually funny when after coming back out to the main door of the college we saw Sangeet{The one to whom called A K Hangal of our group...}there and we met our super juniors in stylo uniforms...{they gave a style to their uniforms as per their requirement} they are the cool new crop of this season… again we entered in to nostalgia, how were we?

The best part we found that we are not changed for each other, as we went to Neha’s place and met Neha {we were the girls from Marathi as a second language but became friends beyond it} and Janet{Cool and stylish, just chill kind... sensation of the group.. Janet marna mat it's true..} there we were totally the same as we were in college times. Somebody said really true, “even if you become super professional or have any height of your career, but you are the same to your old buddies once you get the click when you meet all together...”, in spite of all family issues and tensions we had an awesome day… lot many things left, lot many thing we missed including other members of our Group Manjusha, Nisha, Shrikant and Devleena…{and martina ki pavitra atma ;-)...} But next time we all will meet again and this time it will not take 10 years and that’s the promise we made. 

We had lot of fights and ample of misunderstanding but that were the best things which we had at that time.  We cannot go back and get those days again but whatever it was, it is really good.

Thank you buddies for the wonderful day… the same as it was since 2001 to 2005… Love you all… this is a bond; true Yariyaan.....!!
