30th December – 5th Jan 2014 [Surprise Contacts]




Monday:  Wow opening of the week. We had to make payment of 25 Lakhs to AT for target achievement. We had planned to take 15 Lakhs loan from Vashu, but at the last minute he ditched us. Akshay managed to get advance payment from 3 parties and some additional temporary loan. Somehow, we reached target (with shortfall of 4 lakhs which Robert managed) and 2013 just managed to turn into profitable year. Otherwise it was turning into major loss year.

I saw Muskan in full tension for the first time in my life. Kunal’s baby is undernourished, so Doctor asked Kajal to get admitted for saline feeding.  


I got three calls in succession from the people who were not in contact with me for long time. All calls came within 30 minutes! First call was received by Ramesh Munyal. This was first call after Noble deal in Sept 12. Then Vishnu Munyal called and said he is in Pune and will visit office. And finally Madon called saying he is also in Pune!

Saturday:  Madon /Mohan gave us a pleasantly surprising visit, paying his regards to mummy and meeting us. It brought back the memories of Ghatkopar Life.  Last when I saw Mohan, he was on strict diet and in lean and fit AVTAR. But it looks he gave up that life style for usual Dodeja Roop created by eating lavishly. He was carrying good pot belly, but he looked tired and aged. Well we all are approaching retirement age, but he looks like he is carrying all the worries of the world! 
Madon was his usual self with touch of sadness, passing compliments and making witty remarks. He has become more philosophical and less aggressive. But he is still sharp in mind and interested in all the people around him. I diverted discussion towards ‘Matrimonial’ issues, so that we can pitch for Sharat’s match. Instantly Madon took over the initiative and suggested a proposal with his usual marketing skills. We will get the details in next week and proceed ahead. Lets see what future holds for Sharat. On 31st December 2013, it was agreed and decided that now match-making process can be started in 2014. And here we are getting first offer on its own on 4th, Wow, keep fingers crossed and watch future additions of this blog.


Always behave like a duck - keep calm and unruffled on the surface but paddle like the devil underneath.
