Indian Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi has invited all Indians to clap for all working round the clock to fight COVID-19. PM Modi has chosen the time to be 5 PM IST, today (22nd March 2020).

“Bees Saal Baad”. Again!

“Bees Saal Baad”. Again!

Memories, People
I was on a day trip (business) to Zurich a few days back. I recalled that Krishna Moorthy (Krish), an old friend (and ex-colleague) was at Zurich. Time was gracious, my business meeting concluded, Krish & I could meet. Bees Saal Baad. Again! With Krish at Zurich Almost twenty years later. Bees Saal Baad, again. Krish travelled to my meeting location to take us (I had a colleague with me) to his home (40+ minutes, one way) and Jayalakshmi (his better half) prepared a lovely meal. Jayalakshmi recalled incidents - 20 years ago - of our joint past. They gave me some souvenirs to remember as we bade our goodbyes. I am humbled by the hospitality extended by Krish & Jayalakshmi. Thank you. A memorable visit!
