And from there… laughter, nostalgia, and even a pinch of philosophy took over!
Siddhant started strong – bachpan mein usne ek rocket aisa udaaya ki seedha neighbour ke kitchen mein ghus gaya!
“Saree pan jalali, ani nantar chakali pan!”
(Yes, aunty was frying chakali at that moment – pure cinematic timing!)
Ritwik topped that – he somehow managed to set off the entire stock of firecrackers kept on the terrace. Result? Dhuaan, drama, aur fire brigade call hone tak full Bollywood scene
Legend story!
Then came Pragati’s turn – her rocket flew right through a neighbour’s window!
Her defence? “It wasn’t me. The rocket had a mind of its own.”
Vijay shared how building a killa (fort) every year as a child sparked his love for engineering. Too much love.
Mayur took us to Goa – Narkasur making, collecting vargani, and the post-celebration Pepsi party!
And Mugdha, who celebrates her birthday on Bhau Beej, shared how she was treated as the ‘boy of the house’. Instead of just serving the brothers, she got to sit at the table!
In a separate session, Anuja spoke beautifully about self-love and the art of showing up, and we did not spare the jokes, but absorbed the deep thoughts.
Pragati made us play games, where hand-eye coordination skills (or lack of them) were fully exposed!
Bas – thoda gyaan, jyada fun, aur pure laughter-filled day!
As Pranav kept worried face that said ab next meet-up mein “syllabus pura karna padega”
Happy Diwali from all of us!
