I am sure that the rigorous demands of the program have adequately primed you to face the challenges in the years to come. Before you physically move away from here, please remember that this is your institute and you always should remain emotionally connected to this place,as this alma mater of yours has given you an identity which you will cherish for life.

Life is a roller coaster ride most of the times. The ups and downs are very much a part of it. Enjoy your successes and learn from your failures. Never hesitate to undertake difficult and challenging roles/tasks as these will provide you with great learning experiences to move up in career. When needed challenge the status quo and bring about changes which will significantly contribute to the development of the society. Be honest to yourself and work with steadfast integrity. Remember your parents, family members and friends have contributed to a great extent in your achievements. Always include them in your success and happiness. I am sure each one of you have tremendous potential to be successful in your future endeavors. Your success is your institute’s success. Wish you all the very best. Good Luck !

Prof. Ganesh Kumar Nidugala

It feels like you joined us only few days back, but here you are ready to collect your PGDM and ready to take up the challenges of the corporate world. I had the pleasure of teaching some of you over a couple of courses and it was an enjoyable learning experience for me as well.

Ganesh Kumar Nidugala

Each one of you is a brand ambassador of this Institute and all the good work that you do will add to the brand equity of this institute. We look forward to hearing great things from you in the years to come. With best wishes.

MESSAGE FROM FACULTY Prof. RanjeetNambudiri

Participants of the PGP batch of 2012-’14 are close to the completion of their tenure at IIM Indore and I have good memories of this batch from the classroom. I found them to be enthusiastic and keen learners. A feeling, I am sure, is shared by many of my faculty colleagues. While, I am certain that each and every participant from this batch has a successful managerial career ahead, I also urge them to utilize their learning from IIM Indore for the betterment of the society and nation. I would like to wish every participant from this batch the very best in their professional and personal lives.

Prof. SrinivasGunta

Whenever students leave after their stay at IIM Indore, it is always a feeling of happiness tinged with a smidgeon of sadness – possibly akin to the feelings at the stage when grown-up kids leave home. I would have happy recollections of this batch, having taught most of them (including in the satellite campuses) and having accompanied a sizeable contingent of them to the Himalayas. I look forward to hearing the news of the students keeping the IIM Indore flag flying high. I wish that they keep contributing, enjoying, learning and winning (in that order). I do secretly hope that their successes are because of, and not despite what I have done to them as a faculty member, though I would not mind the latter as well! SrinivasGunta

Tribute by PGP AnkitaChandak

Dear Seniors, It is with mixed feelings that I write this note to you. On one hand, it feels great to be a part of this institute as we see another batch graduating and stepping into the real, corporate world with excellent opportunities for them. On the other, it is sad to know that we won’t be able to meet you as frequently as we do now on campus. You all have been truly amazing- to begin with, the effort that you all put in to give us a feel of the coming two years in ‘bakra’ will definitely stay with us for a long, long time. We grew, learnt and had fun in various other activities that you guys spearheaded- from the formation of clubs and committees to hosting events like Ahvan, Mridang and Utsaha. The support and guidance that you all provided for our summers preparation and internships through different workshops have helped us tremendously. And other than all the formal events, there have been many occasions when you have helped us sail through tough times here. You have inspired us by success stories that you carved here and we look forward to hearing more of them in the coming years. Here is wishing all of you immense success and happiness in the years to come!

Prateek Bagga

I feel it is my honour to have been given the opportunity to bid farewell to the batch of 2012-14 on behalf of the students of PGP1 by the Mediacom. It is a feeling of both pride as well as sorrow for me. I feel proud to be associated with such a great institute which has yet again produced a batch of talented professionals who are ready to take on the business world with their path breaking ideas. On the other hand I do feel a sense of gloom because just when we started becoming comfortable and outgoing with you, the time for you to leave came. I cannot help but mention our initial ‘bakra’ days and how beautifully our ‘on boarding’ was taken care of, right from the start with the acadcomm sending us primers to read and the SAC asking us to prepare NPADs. When each one of us came here leaving behind our personal and professional lives, we were filled with apprehensions as to how the next phase of life would roll out for us, and I am glad that you guys were there to support us no matter what the situation and this has certainly helped us forge close ties of friendship with you all. We have seen the institute evolve over the past one year with you and hope that not only you, but we as proud students of Planet-I become role models for our juniors to come and a great ambassador for this even great institute, a place that will be as much a part of our identity as the name we bear. Here is wishing the best to each one of you and hope to see you at Footprints this year. Cheers!

Tribute by PGP Akhil Krishnan

Dear seniors, We are extremely grateful to have you guys as our seniors. You guys have been the best seniors any junior could dream of. Your batch had the right mix of fun and learning. You were always approachable and helped us when we needed the most. We are gonna miss you guys a lot in the campus and I believe that in the back of our minds we would always be searching for your presence in the campus, be it the night mess, dosa point, Pi-shop or the playground. Thanks for your awesomeness.

Aditi Singh

First time we entered IIM Indore a year ago, little did we know the climb uphill would be so overwhelming. Our worst fears came true during the first three days itself, with the tyranny of Bakra looming large over our heads. Who knew Planet-I literally never sleeps! Back then, this place felt like Nazi Germany. But I’m glad that perception didn’t stick for long. It is now a second home for all of us- and the senior batch has played a significant role in making us feel comfortable. Over the past eight odd months, over countless events and fests, meetings and parties, I’ve had the pleasure of interacting with a lot of you. You’ve been invaluable friends and mentors to all of us. From the immense support during our summer placements, to detailed advice about PORs, RIP and student exchange, the senior batch has guided us along every step of our journey here. How to bunk classes to optimally utilize day count, how to manipulate certain professors, who in the PGP office can be coaxed for attendance- thanks to you, we picked up all the survival tricks in no time. The best lessons were learnt not in classrooms, but in those grilling pre-processes and interviews. All your attempts at giving us a tough time- somewhere they made us better prepared for life. And then came the midnight meetings, discussion and execution of ideas, the parties! It was heartening to see the solidarity in your batch; despite all the false rumors and baseless gossip everyone loved to indulge in! More importantly, it was admirable to see you stand by your junior batch. We knew we could always look up to you when in doubt, and that you’d be ready to help. As your journey uphill finally comes to an end, here’s wishing you good luck for your future endeavors. It’s too soon to say goodbye yet, for a year from now when we go out there, we hope to see all of you doing wonders in whatever you choose to do. You’re a lovely bunch of people; stay blessed.

Wasn’t it?. I have always seen you smiling and laughing and that’s something great thing about you :). The small small but numerous outings we had, Meals (especially breakfast) at Dosa point, Sitting in my room talking about random things, watching stupid videos.. trust me, I have enjoyed each and every moment spent with you. I really wish you a great future ahead :) Do stay in touch :D....Ishan Rishabh Kansal Sumita, a total party lover ladki. Always ready for masti, be it shopping, be it dinner or just hang out with group. She is very helpful person and also accompany us in all the parties :D.

It is nice to know you, have a great future ahead and always stay in touch. â?º...PRAKHAR KATIYAR Kitna dance karti hai re tu!! I have know so many parties where I entered with Sumita, danced, got tired, returned to my room, got hungry and came to find Sumita only to see her still dancing! and does she dance, Ooh la la :P I believe she is very strong, not only mentally but when she shows her anger then Shakespeare ka quote yaad dila deti hai, Hell hath no fury like a woman!! Yikes She is a total SHOULD person. I can bet anyone if you can have an entire conversation with her without her SHOULDing you around :P Its awesome to get her worried, itna majja aata hai expect when you are trying to scare her with ghosts.

Teri kahaniya, jo shuru hone se pehle problems me aa jati hain. ;). Tera gyaan from life’s experiences :P. Teri understanding of human behavior :P. Tu unique piece hai. Don’t let temporary setbacks get to you! Wish you the best for life!...SHREYA TANDON

You are not leaving the campus and so, possibly, a testimonial now, doesn’t make much sense. But this was due.:) Got to know you during Talent Night preparations and we have been friends ever since. Yahaan nahi hota toh mein bhi HR me hota, toh ye connection toh banta tha boss.:) You have a fine balance of sincerity, elegance, fun and art (dance and writing are the only arts I have been able to see..:P).

Well if I ignore all this then you have been an excellent friend, messenger ( :P ) and someone I could share my feelings with. Abe ek issue hain per, tu jab teacher ban jayegi finally (in a fewww years) to bhi koi manega nahi, sab bachii hi samajhne walle hain tujko :) ...ASHISH KALYA Hey payal...never interacted much...but out of all those chit chats that we have had...i can make out that you are a great girl with fun-filled enthu.

Will remember your disproving looks when I was late ;). Sincere and sweet, you will surely go a long way. Good luck for life!...SHREYA TANDON The Episodes Episode1- The climb to the clouds The walk to the clouds, we ran and we fell Covered with the all too familiar fear like a shell Scary and tiresome, the climb was long and sharp The wind blew past us, sounding sweeter than harp But we kept on moving till we reached the zenith Slow but determined, you conquered the myth The myth of your fear of height, crumbled to hell The walk to the clouds, we ran and we fell Episode2The slices of parathas Stacked before me, a pile of scrumptious home-made food Ever so ready to get me into a happy foodie mood I stuffed in the parathas, as much as they would fit The aalu-curry was sweet and salty, just the way I like it! I thanked your mom several times in all my good spirit And thanks to you, of course, for letting me near it For I ate it up all in one go, and it felt heaven good Stacked before me, a pile of scrumptious home-made food Episode3- The chatty kid It was a delight to talk and chat and quarrel with you For friendship is all about knowing someone anew And no matter how annoying I seemed at times It was all done in the spirit of innocent crimes You don창??t need anyone to tell you that you are nice You believe it yourself, that should suffice It was awesome to have you in the 창??Capsule Crew창?? It was a delight to talk and chat and quarrel with you! :) ...SUMIT KUMAR PRAMANIK Aashi!! Kaha se shuru karoon? From the first day in campus- When I mistook aunty as a student :P , or from the bakra party when you kept trying to persuade me to dance or from our first visit together to the city or from the endless times we spent talking to each other? I am glad that I found you as a friend for you have always been very kind, patient and caring towards me :) and I am sure we will both agree that you are a little too helpful :P I have been lucky to know you so well. (but unluckily that means ki I have to hear all you non-stop chitter chatter. Seriously, how can one person speak so much and still have so much more to say!) I will remember the time we had a sleepover, the times you were scared of lizards and insects in your room :P, the times we spent in the library and most of all just walking into your room and talking about anything and everything. I will always remember you as a sweet person with a dimpled smile and big heart :) Thankyou for being my mentor :P and thankyou for being a wonderful friend :) Love you loads......JYOTHI GARG

Obhijeet â?? the only writer of Planet I. I first met you in section E...we were the rowmates... the backbenchers. We have been close friends since then.

Abhijeet you are really a nice person....if any one wants to learn patience, humbleness, tension free attitude then its YOU.

Unarguably the most hard-working person in Sec C, Dada takes focus and devotion to an altogether different level. I envy your wit, memory and thought process and at times (read always) am scared by the elaborate preparations you make before any endeavor be it academic or otherwise. You were the first person that I interacted with in Sec C and since that day we have had some amazing memories. I have been extremely fortunate to have you as a friend, mentor and guide. I cannot forget the hours of endless debates that we have had over the last two years. Life in Planet-I has been so much easier cause of you. Hope you achieve every milestone that you strive for Cheers to a wonderful career ahead. Stay blessed :)...ANAND MALHOTRA Dada!! Have respected you always for your sincerity and hardwork. You are the person who personifies what the general public thinks of an IIM graduate. A perfect blend of intelligence, knowledge and hard work- will definitely take you to great heights. Was really mesmerised by your general knowledge on a wide variety of topics during those quizzes and competitions we participated in. But as much serious and hardworking you may appear, when it comes to partying, there are few who can match your energy. A person who believes in preparing oneself for everything. I wish you all the success and a great life!... ROHIT KUMAR GUPTA Dada!! The human encyclopedia, analyst and hard-worker, that’s the obvious part about u. What goes unnoticed by many is your child like enthusiasm and that weird laughter of yours. I cherish my time spent interacting with u :) ...ASHISH KALYA DADA.. sabse intelligent sabse gyaani.. clg ki har khabar rehti thi inko.. Bas kuch time sath bita lo aur update ho jao..

I really enjoyed all the conversations we had... Just keep up d same attitude.. All the best for ICICI.. Keep in tch.. ...RACHIT MITTAL One of the most sincere and knowledgable person on the campus...he has ocean of knowledge about almost all the topics. He is also keenly interested in knowing new things. We have been in the group in many courses and I always relied on you for the assignments, but you never shown the frustration. A very helpful guy and are always there for his friends. I have enjoyed bike ride to the city with you. All the best for future and be in touch......VIKASH KUMAR

Abhiket, a.k.a. Taklu is the senior citizen of our Shipra Group. I remember the day when I saw his FB profile before we met at the institute. He looked like a serious guy! To my surprise (rather shockingly), he is a complete BAKCHOD! We did not start on a good note and the fight over drinks at PD changed the game! Gradually, things fell into place as we started getting along with his poor jokes. I give him due credit for spoiling me and degrading the level of my jokes to JUNK category! Not a single day has passed in the final year, when I have not screwed him for some reason (In short, iski liye bina khana hazam nahi hota!) . He is the one to be blamed for everything (And he gets screwed everytime!). NOT TO FORGET, he has a dangerous laughter tone- even banshies would be feel embarrassed in front of his laughter!! Also, do catch him dance sometime and you would not stop laughing! Please note: His official Roll No. is 006 From group assignments to Competitions, from strolls round the campus to HOP (Wouldnt forgive the RIP group ditch!), I would always remember him for all his BAKCHODI.. Hats off to you and your BAKCHODI, BUZURG TAKLU! ...PARAG PODDAR Taklu is the seniormost member of our bakar group. Very good company for daaru and chicken but of course he often falls down after drinking, so he needs to be taken care of. His humour level is decent but he often becomes the target of the jokes himself. Being a fin guy, he is great at trading and stuff and is expected to be a rich man in the future. He is a quite rich now as well, with his apple products. He is decent at TT but is always too busy to play, doing high level finance stuff. All kidding aside, he is a really good friend and I will cherish the good times we had, whether it was at nafees or trance and other places... MRIGANK GUTGUTIA Abhiket..Topi, taklu are some of his nicknames..First year mein hamesha topi pehen ke ghumta rehta thaâ?¦We have been friends from the very beginning..Jugaad mein expert hai:)..He is very hardworking and has a peculiar laugh which you would listen a lot with him..Doesnâ??t take things to heart and a good company for drinks when his ability to give fundas multiplies:) I have had some of the most memorable experiences with him. Always there for to help out friendsâ?¦Bangalore jake machine wala hai abâ?¦ Best of luck bhai and have a great life ahead..Keep in touch:)...ATISHAY KUMAR JAIN Topi the takluâ?¦.senior most guy in our group even might be in the batch :P. Funde maarne me sabse aage rahta hai and sometimes try to be smart though he knows himself he is not. He is very easy-going, fun-loving guy and good in making friends. Har kaam jugaad se karne ki koshish karta hai (senior se achche contact bana kar rakhta hai and also leverage it for impressing his friends :P ). Whenever we go outside with him, he always uses the word â??PROFANITYâ?? but he never follows it himself. He is very sincere and dedicated guy towards his commitments. I really had great times with you and will surely remember you and your backhodi. Wish you all the success in life ahead. Keep in touch bro!!! :) :)...AKSHAY MANGAL 18

Abhinav! It was fun sitting next to you during the first year. It was hilarious how you would be totally unaware of what is happening in the class, but still come up with a CP :P I guess your notebooks are still filled with doodles of sine/cos waves and cartoon characters of yesteryears :) Will remember you as a football fanatic, DC demigod and the person who cracked CFA L1 with total ease :) ...JYOTHI GARG Had a great time during HOP especially the poker games at night :P...It’s good knowing you!...SAI PRASANNA KUMAR LAVU A fellow pgp1 group 1 member and a member of the group which shall not be named, he stands to this day as a great friend of mine. Technically he calls himself a great footballer, but is actually quite good at a lot of other things. I can seriously discuss a seemingly irrelevant and perhaps farfetched idea of mine with him, and he will respond with his own inputs and before we know we have spent hours in coming up with a ridiculous idea with an uninvented technology which will never be possible nor commercially viable (Knowledge cloning and exchange, patent pending) ï?? . He also has a host of interesting experiences up his sleeves, which will be copied by me for my book. He is even more fun to hang around with when his spirits are high. He is also quite focussed at what he wants and strives for it with all his dedication and hard work, be it sports, studies or knowledge about a particular type of sword. So I wish you all the best in life and may you get what you want out of life, always. ...PACHANEKAR REKHIT I think it started with late-night pings to cross check if there were any assignments/prereads for the next day that we had conveniently forgotten...I am truly glad I got to know you as a friend. A stellar footballer and a treasure trove of the most unusual information people can actually remember. You will be glad to know I finally watched all those Trailer videos on YouTube and the crowning jewel...Gunda..:D Our conversations were always light and fun and reminiscent of Good Ol Btech days! A very sincere and quiet guys who can quieten Jayasimha when the time comes! It was really special knowing you! Wish you all the best in life. I am sure you will be the same happy-go-lucky guy in CSC! Stay blessed! ...MONAMI BAGCHI AMS..never say never to football in life.. One of the best strikers in campus and die hard Gooner!! I still remember the day when u said “bhai u cannot go on exchange, we have to go and kick balls at IIML”.. Crazy group chats we used to have!!Best of luck, man!!... BISMAYY MOHAPATRA A true gentleman.....footballer with a great sportsmanship....didn’t interact much with you though.....all the best in life...ANSHU KUMAR

Abhish !! You and Mate were my first friends at IIM Indore. Even today I remember our meeting at Rendezvous in May’12 and the trip to my place in your car after that, (your parents were not sure how will it be for you at Planet I) :P Shared so many things with you, being neighbours for 2 years!! Always came out as a creative person with clear intentions of going into Marketing from the very beginning. Very happy that you got the kind of job you wanted. Very few people know that you are someone who had the ability to give life in the face after undergoing a horrific accident. I always tried to learn from your strengths! Mate and I always liked your unique expletives and the way you used to say them!! :D Had fun time in Guna too. Hope to stay in touch with you! Have a great life ahead, I know you will excel wherever you go!! Cheers!...RAHUL YADAV Abhish, I regret getting to know you so late in our stay at IIM Indore. But I am extremely delighted to have spend whatever time I could with you. Our night outs, our long walks, our similar taste in songs, movies and girls (:P) will always be rememebred and cherished. I love your ‘stubbornly optimistic’ approach towards life. Never let that die buddy. We shall be in touch. Care!..:) ...HARJAI AANIKET LALIT ABHEEEESH! Your name is my copyright :D You’re so so awesome! Despite the fact that you loot-oed an already broke girl by selling me that bloody Mridang T-shirt! Kudos to your salesmanship, by the way (y) I’ve always seen you with that wide grin on your face. Your happiness is contagious, you know? :D Cheers to all the random fun we had, stupid jokes we cracked during meetings and after dance drinking sessions where none of us made any sense! Who will make Mercur-I posters now? :P I hope you succeed in everything that you do. Stay blessed and keep in touch :) *Beeeeeg Hug Abheeeesh*! :P...ADITI SINGH I love Abhish. There, I said it. I mean the guy is phenomenal, you can’t deny it. I’ve been in awe of Abhish ever since I first met him - which was pretty much Day 1 at IIM Indore. I’ve worked with him right from Bakra through Branded (Abhish,I told you my idea was better. At least we won 2nd.) through a year with Mercur-I. And he’s been such a positive influence throughout. Learning his history and the way he handled it, has been truly inspirational. His straight-forwardness is refreshing, and he is a genuine, positive personality. And a creative genius. Abhish has been among my closest friends here, and he’ll be among my best takeaways from IIM Indore. PS: I might have risked sounding a little attracted to him. I hope I’m not....BHARATH GANGADHARAN

Chacha, your kishore kumar collection was an integral part of nights at SR11 top floor. Will remember our hourly meetings during exams fondly....ARINDAM MAJUMDAR One word..... Chacha Possibly the coolest person in IIM Indore by far, can’t forget that elder-knowledge possessing look back in PGP-1 with you holding your big, black umbrella. A man of fine taste and spontaneous wit....DEBOPRIO DUTTA Chacha is one of those few guys in life you feel fortunate to have met them. He is one of the most spontaneous people. People beware of his one liners!! I would fondly remember all the time we spent together debating random issues and fighting over them(literally), watching sitcoms, series and movies, all the times our group sat together to listen and watch Ghazals to rock songs :) my best times here are with you guys in it.

I feel very lucky to have you as a friend at the campus. you had been there at every times of happiness and sadness with me. Those late night economics quiz preparations at JP bhai’s room, PD, trance, classic, all those places we had been together to hang out. We fought, we laughed together... All this will be missed. Wish you good luck for your future and yes we’ll be in touch always cheers :)...TEJINDER KUMAR NEGI honestly, he is the most chill person in college. never gives a crap about anything, while most of the people around him are always worrying about small issues. literally the funniest, most caring, & most interesting person ive ever met.

I sincerely wish him a successful and happy professional and personal life :)...KISHLAI KUMAR Chacha turned into Chachu....I was most scared of u when I first saw u with grey hair but loved d fact how u invited me to the group...sabke liye tum chacha ho but mere liye papa jaise ho...even if you r not in the group, ppl talk about u only.....group me fun factor is cause of u only and its so sweet of u ki tum kisi baat ka bura bhi nhi maante....I feel jealous cause u r more close to JP :P :P.....Group ke sabse samjhdaar, mature and yet so kiddish bande ho aap.....kaise ek chotu se samose ke liye u brought such a big pichku n babu took d samosa n u were left with pichku....Thanku for always remembering my crispy corn order (I know u also luv crispy corn :))...u’ll be always there in our talks....I wish our group will be like this forever....Good luck for the future ahead :)......i know u’ll be more famous than Alok Nath ;) ...VAISHALI SHARMA

Chourasia, wanna be “Maddy” possesses too many qualities to manage. This guy is an artist who can entertain you any time.

A chilled out person with no tension in life would sum up Maddy....LOKESH CHANDRA AGRAWAL Chourasia was my group mate in term 1. Very talented poet (ghazals especially) and a good artist.

To may be one of the only Visiting Student on campus, Street smart and bold! Your ability to take the best and worst in your stride is inspiring. As a friend and mentor I often turned to you for advise and got some serious food for thought. Had some great moments together. Wish you good luck in the many journeys of life still left! ...ARCHIT JAIN Section C class discussion would have been incomplete without the insightful participation of Abhishek. CP king! Sincere in studies and also travelling and partying! You really make me envy about the well balanced MBA experience you managed. All the best for your aspirations and B in Touch!...ABHIJIT DAS Lemme start off by saying that I love your mushroom haircut :P We have had a lot of wonderful moments & trips together - RIP , HOP etc..

I really admire him for his bindas attitude. But let me tell you, he is very intelligent as well. He loves to travel. He was one of the few guys in our class who actually did some insightful CP. He is fun to be around with, always ready to party. He is always cheerful and is caring about his friends. Stay the way you are. It was great knowing you. All the very best for all your future endeavours. Will definitely be in touch. ...BHANTI PRATIKSHA DEEPAK

Sirjee, we have had almost similar life at IIM I. I kind of replicated everything you did, be it VC, Chanakya, summers and now exchange. Hoping to continue the same with finals :p Lekin to be true you have been a great help and i really thank you for that. Keep providing the same help in future as i will need it the most :p ...KASHIMPURIA NIKHILKUMAR SUBHA Adhit, fondly called as Chhota! :), first met in Section A when you used to sit in front of me! I still remember when I had said I was not hoping much from you in DB summers interview(since I did not know you then), you got motivated and showed that you were one of the best among the lot. It was then I came to know that you were my junior from VJTI and then we became friends. You were always way ahead of your times in terms of the depth of knowledge you had in almost every aspect. Being a no non sense guy( I remember coining this term for you :P ), you always showed others how to think and do justice to whatever you do in life.. Excellent writing skills (Thanks for all the SOPs that you wrote on my behalf) and a very good presenter. I hope your aspiration to become RBI Gov one day, comes true! Always enjoyed the fun times (Germany, Mumbai bus trips etc) and when you first got high in Amsterdam!! :P :P . Liked teasing you a lot. Thank you for all you taught me before Fin exams! you are an inspiration!! Clearly your performance at IIM I says that you are an ABC material. but then you would not have made friends like us there :) May you get all what you desire in life! Have a great one! Proud to have you as a friend! hope to keep in touch. cheers.....RAHUL YADAV First things first, fill the ‘nickname’ tab that is present in the left :P. I will start with a confession. You are the only guy on campus in front of whom I feel some sort of an inferiority complex( I think you know me well enough to understand that this is unusual) and curse god for not giving the same intelligence to everyone. And, both of us know it that if you want, you can reach the very top( not just another fucking VP, but something like the RBI governor). In the last couple of years, you have changed a lot( I would say, for the better). I so desperately want to use the nickname here but am somehow refraining from doing so because if Neha sees this yearbook some years down the line and gets to know the nickname, there will be a lot of unpleasant questions asked ;) We are miles apart in everything we do, our thought process, but I am very sure we will remain the best of friends for life. Signing off :)...ARINDAM PAUL One of the few people I truly respect on campus. Perfect blend of intelligence, hard work and maturity. We were in the same groups all the time in the initial days, be it Bakra, acad groups, Rip, and I always counted on you for support. I still remember you were the one to call and wake me up in the 1st term whenever something important came up. Needless to say, you will surely excel wherever you go and whatever you do. All the very best :)... KARANDEV SINGH KAMRA

You are one weirdo :D The weirdo who loves to drive. :P I have spent many a good moments with you :D. The high point being our internship where we bonded the most I guess :). Alcoves, Truffles, Banerghatta, ITC, HOP.. The time I spent with you was indeed great :D. Hell, I owe you for getting me into stock market :P. I am not joking If I say I owe half the things I bought in second years to you :D Haha. Professionally, I really admire the way you commit yourself to things. You are choosy, YES, but the things you really want to do I have not seen a single person do so much hardwork without thinking about rewards or recognition at IIM Indore. The journey from not being allowed to call your mom “aunty” to you calling my Bhabhi “Bhabhi” was indeed a special one :D. You definitely would succeed in career with the amount of efforts you put in :). I really hope you stay in touch :) (P.S.: this is me being selfish. :P Abhi bohot products order karne hai Sony se :D)....Ishan Rishabh Kansal “He came, he saw, He conquered”, the words used for Julius Caesar may be apt to describe Aditya. In a collective society like ours, individuals like Aditya come along once in a while, and when they do-people take notice. You love him, you hate him, but you can’t ignore him. This chap polarizes opinion like no other, but never buzzes from his own terms. An excellent orator, a splendid go-getter, a leader of men(the ones who are too scared to say no :P), a wannabe driver, a multi cultural kid-Aditya’s life comes in a myriad of hues. CP hogging with him has been one of my most entertaining in-class moments, and despite his snobbish self, I’ve learnt a lot from him. This denizen from the Nawab’s country wdefinitely ants to rule the world. But while you’re at it, have mercy on we mortals :P...APAL Ullu k pathe..bot bada kamina hai tu but you are one of the best persons I have ever met, bus thoda attitude kam maara kar.. I know you are a natural showoff.. :P.. You are entering the corporate for the first time just like me and I wish you all the very best for your future and boss par atti mat jhadio.. :) ...SIDHANT SACHDEVA

a.k.a Addy is the bestest friend I have on campus. He’s fun and worldly and smart and this and that. Well there is just so much to him. His stupid jokes and repetitive stories always get me cracking. He’s been my sounding board and kept me sane through these two years. The time we spent after summers playing poker and just whiling away time would always be memorable to me as the most carefree time I’ve had in years. Things that I’ve picked up from him: Trash talking, a little bit of a Tam Accent, and a few joke cracking skills! Addy, you really should start work on that Joke Collection idea! You could earn some royalty after you’ve conquered the fin-universe. Also, I’m going to take you up on those Mumbai plans so I’m not ready to bid a farewell to you yet. FYI: Your frequently uttered line is- Just Chill Dude! ...ANKITA SATIJA Bro! Ironically I met your sister and thought she was the one joining IIM Indore before I met you. It’s been two great years knowing you. The time we spent on our internship together was in your words “kickass” (Kalpita Bros for life!). You are definitely one of the most down to earth people I know on campus and you have provided me countless hours of entertainment over the last two years. I’m amazed that we have spent two years watching countless football matches together and have never had a single argument about the sport. Here’s to more football matches and more fun in Mumbai! I hope you accomplish all that you have planned i.e. Chanda Kochar reporting to you in two years and climbing Mount Everest in five :) Cheers! :)...VIVIAN PAUL GONSALVES What to say...I think u r one of the most well connected guys on campus...and this comes naturally to u...which is a great quality in my view...I have had some great sessions with you in the past 2 years especially in term 5, where u really opened up and i got to know a lot more about u...u r a gr8 guy...just be a bit more ambitious regarding ur career...would love to stay in touch with u fucker......SUGEET MITTAL The reason I have managed to keep my attendance in limit during the first year is this guy.. . would have been difficult to attend classes if I was not sitting next to him.. Ballu is an incredibly witty and intelligent fucker.. Behind that smile and calm attitude he holds a lot, which he rarely shows.. and I was among the few fortunate to witness that side of Ballu.. he has gone through a lot in life, has seen and witnessed a lot.. and he has weathered through all of it and has become this great guy, full of life lessons.. I Respect you for this Bro.. A friend who is so close to my heart that I always make it a point to abuse him whenever he chooses to go out with someone else, rather than the BP Boys...

Afzal was probably the first real friend I made in section B.It all started with a little chat we had after the first QT-1 quiz and there has been no looking back since then.He is a kind hearted,no nonsense guy who knows how to get work done.It is often said that familiarity breeds contempt,but as far as our friendship is concerned,that couldn’t be further from the truth.I feel extremely fortunate to have met Afzal and ill always remember the awesome times we had both inside the campus and outside. @Afzal:I was serious about the case study on mobile phone usage man...I’m really going to write about it one of these days ;) All the best for your future endeavours...Keep in touch...PRASAD VENKATESAN You (Afzal C M) are one of my best friend.

I really enjoyed your company in Nafees,KFC and Sayaji. I never forget those days when you motivate me at the time of worst phase of my life.

One of my neighbours for 2 years, Rohan is very dear friend who was always there for helping. One of the youngest of the batch (many still consider you as someone having exp), he had the maturity level of that of people who always think big in life. Always planned on starting something of his own ( I am sure you will do one day) ! Used to bring awesome Gujarati snacks from Gandhidham :) Then we had our share of fun during exchange where you were the planner of al the trips, Likes to be well informed before taking any decision in life.( typical marwari/ businessman dimaag) :P Extremely intelligent but loves procrastinating. Best part of him is he lives his life his own way! People like you are not easy to find! cheers :)...RAHUL YADAV It has been a privilege to have had the chance to converse with Rohan. His ken on a vast range of topics is commendable and he has a mind that is keen and which induces a sense of awe in me. I hope he fulfills his true potential and I wish him the best in his future endeavors. ...SYED ERAJ HASSAN Rohan ji.. my entire first year was made interesting by sitting next to you in the class.. does’nt come across as a very friendly person until you start interacting with him.. remember how you used to make random CP’s in class by seeing the weightage in course outline.. you never pay attention to what’s going on in class and yet you to manage to score brilliant grades. Extremely logical and intelligent person.. often i wonder how come without any work ex you show a lot of maturity in thinking and in your actions.. I honestly feel that you will become a successful entrepreneur one day.. All the best for your future endeavors dude :) :) Stay in touch :)...SIMPSON SELWYN My teammate for competitions but more importantly a true friend. Every conversation with you is either greatly inspiring or highest level of snafu ( hindi mein nahi likh sakte na meaning). I truly admire you for the effort you put in the fest. It has been a great journey with you and I am sure to continue the same in future. Keep pushing your limits :)...Parag Jain I first met Rohan when we were hanging out (read: drinking) with common friends and by the end of the first year and numerous outings we had become best of the friends. What make Rohan stand apart are his humility and his willingness to go the extra mile for his friends. He, along with his close-knitted team, has been the heart and soul of Mridang, working tirelessly and selflessly when things didnâ??t seem to be going their way. In spite of having so much work, we never miss a chance to catch up with each other. Yahan machaya hai, Mumbai mein bhi machayenge! Milte hain. ...PARTHA PRATIM PANDA One of the few people who are really chilled out in life! This guy drinks too much.. almost every day! :P Worked really hard and made Mridang a success..much better than last year! Wish him all the best for the future!! ...NITIN VERMA

Ajju! I met him well before coming to IIM Indore, during our Malay Ray sessions. At first impression, he seemed like a serious, sincere and orthodox guy who minds his own business! And hey, I was completely wrong (apart from the sincere part). He is one hell of an entertaining person Iâ??ve ever met in my life. I donâ??t know many people who would crack jokes at themselves, at times even make fun of themselves intentionally just to make people around them happy, and youâ??re one of them. I respect you for that man! Also, a helpful creature to the core. Understands the meaning of friendship and will always go out of the way for his friends. Was quite kiddish when he landed up here though but Iâ??m sure that maturity has caught up with him as time here has passed by. I know youâ??ve been mad at me for not dropping by your room often, and well I never did it in spite of your repeated reminders (till date I make promises to meet but hardly do):P But that hardly takes away the fact that youâ??re one of my best friends and one of the best and most genuine people Iâ??ve met so far! Keep rocking. Keep entertaining. Have fun bro :)... ISHAN BOSE Ajitesh is very sincere as well as helpful guy. Fun person to interact with and always to the point. Whoever knows you in person is a fan of yours. Keep spreading the cheers around you like you always do. Keep in touch and wishing you all the success in life.. :)... PRAKHAR PORWAL Aarey Secy sahaab! A fun-loving yet hard-working person is what you shall find in Ajitesh. He is one with whom you will be friends with in no time. Has a clear sense of what is morally ‘right’ and what is ‘wrong’, a respectable trait which is really rare to find. He is an example of how a person can succeed when he chooses to do something irrespective of his excellence in something else. In spite of being fluent with a plethora of computer languages, he chose to pursue finance when he could have easily got a technical job or postgraduation. And he has proved his mettle academically and professionally throughout the 2 years at IIM Indore, capping it all with a coveted job on the very first day. And yes, last but not the least, his dancing capabilities which can anyday dislodge an MJ or a Hrithik Roshan from their positions of expertise! :-P Be like this and keep in touch.... DEBAYAN BISWAS Ajju, you are one chupa rustam, I tell you. After every interaction with you, I have got to see something new and something more weird in you. You are a clear example to negate a very old adage, “First impression is the last impression”. Your thumkas on “Maar daala “ and “Fevicol se” during RIP were incredibly hilarious.Your so not convincing ignorance to sexual issues is again laughter generating. Hope you keep up the Light-spirited attitude of yours forever. All the best in life. Cheers :)...HARJAI AANIKET LALIT

Well, I can bet that there is no girl on campus who is more calm and patient than u.... Having known u since MDI, u have been one of my closest friends since the start of IIM Indore journey... I still remember those days when u, me and chachi used to moan on our decisions, had night outs for exams, cracked jokes and the whole lot of nautanki we did... RIP would have been the first moment when I enjoyed being a part of IIMI n thats because of the group... :) Although things changed after that (somethings attributed to my stupidity), we still continued to be there for each other... HOP forms another block of memory that wont be tarnished ever... Will cherish all the moments we shared... it had been so easy to talk to u... Will miss u cow.. Love! :) Wish u the best for future!

My best friend at campus, positivist attitude and hardworking. I remember the first year, when we used to make fun of profs, get random CP ideas, talk talk talk while the class is going on and realize only when the class got over. Over the last two years, countless gossips, stories, random talks, looking out of the window to JAM, snax time, copying assignments, cramming just before quizzes and exams, birthday at campus. Loads of chai and samosas, bitching about friends and not-so-friends, going to most hated DJ parties (for me at least). Talk about honesty, goodness, politeness, this girl defines those. Best wishes for a great career ahead, do keep in touch! ...S NITISH SIVARAMAKRISHNAN One of the best thing Mayur (ex-humain-I secy ) did is to tk u in humain-I :P one of the wonderful person in this campus. You have a heart of gold. You were the only person cz of which I was able to handle that Advaita phase :P Lots of patience, extreme innocence (I would say dumbness :P ), always a smile on your cute face, ready to help, sweet voice and what not :P I seriously regret that we met so late. Will miss you a lot :) Stay in touch. With lots and tons of love :)...AASHIMA SAINI

I think nothing much has changed in you from when I first met you standing outside your room while I hauled my luggage up the stairs..

Haha.. I think you might be the most calm and composed person I know on campus.. Oh yeah, I forgot to mention this but you are solely responsible for introducing me to that idiot Jally. I remember how we treated him like a junior back then..

Stay like this always, bada mat ho jana :P Looking forward to great times at RBS :) ...RUDRASHIS ROY Ladka heera hai heera, always has a big smile on his face and his extremely helpful always. Although his physique leaves a lot to be desired, he is surprisingly good in many sports, thougb of course much worse than me in TT. A big foodie like me and with a sense of humour rivalling mine, we have spent some amazing times together. He really becomes the life of any party with his smile and his humour but his dream to get a hot GF on campus still remains unfulfilled. Mera advice liya hota toh ab tak kuch ho gaya hota :P. He is also a quant God and proved that with his RBS day 0 crack. Inspite of his multiple talents, he is a really humble person and very gentle at heart. A really good friend, will miss the times spent together!...MRIGANK GUTGUTIA Manglu..U would always find him smiling..very friendly and helpful but the most striking thing is his childlike innocence.. Numbers mein kaafi tez hai and a very humble person.. We have been friends from the very beginning and have spent a lot of good time together.. Ghissu hai but naukri lagne ke baad bahut chill ho gaya hai and has become a great company for drinks..Volleyball sahi khelta hai aur DJ mein to macha deta hai..ab banker ban gaya hai aur waha bhi machayegaâ?¦ Best of luck bhai and have a great life ahead..Keep in touch:)...ATISHAY KUMAR JAIN Manglu..a true friend with a golden heart. He will always greet you( or for that case anyone) with a big smile. He is one of the most helpful and innocent guys in this campus. We were in the same bakra group and have been friends since then.The guy has great sense of humor and is the centre of attraction in every party (iski maarne me mazaa hi kucch aur hai ). hez also the volleyball king of the campus and I would admit that I went to the volleyball ground just to see his smashes. Me and Kaushu have had some great moments together (maggi moments, HOP etc) which I’ll cherish for a lifetime. Good in every sport...though his dream of defeating me in Badminton and cards never came true. It was after getting placed in RBS that the boy became a man;) ...and his dance moves...especially on the day with me and Atishay /\ ...baaki padhne me bhi theek thaak tez hai :P Machate rehna and obviously we’ll keep in touch. ...CHINMAY NAHAR mangal was my 3rd term group mate.

Alok â?? my best friend at IIM Indore. The amazing thing is that in spite of us being of quite different basic natures, weâ??ve a similar mental wavelength. And probably thats why we bond so well. We had seats next to each other in the last bench, and the funny part is I came to know of your name towards the end of first term. Thatâ??s because we hardly talked during first term, whether it be my ignorance or your introvert nature. However, whenever Iâ??d miss out getting a spiral, need a pen, be asked a question from the professor out of nowhere while chatting, there would always be a helping hand left of me. And the best part is the help would be unconditional. Then things started to chill out and we had our bhasad sessions. And it is then I realized that within a seemingly simple and quiet persona is a really humorous and fun-loving person. Interestingly, not many people know that about you. And that is when we started to bond really well, because weâ??d so effortlessly strike a chord together. With time I also realized that heâ??s one of the most honest and humble people around (not even an ounce of air about himself), something not so commonplace these days. The immense help during quizzes and end terms to help me cross the line is something Iâ??d never forget. I also caused you a lot of trouble, like Iâ??d barge into your room at random times and use your laptop, as if it were mine. Probably a reason to procrastinate the purchase of my laptop was that working together was fun. Having 18 credits of subjects together in the same section made it all the more interesting. In a nutshell, a person whom not just me but everyone who knows well respects a lot! High on ethics and values! Responsible, humble and honest. A guy who is liked by everyone who knows him, everyone who doesnâ??t and everyone else! Have fun ei adoop! :)...ISHAN BOSE The most “Sanskaari” gentleman on Planet-I. Its remarkably easy to connect with you as a person. The sense of responsibility with which you take up any task coupled with your sincerity is indeed commendable. I had great fun working with you in ShARE. Have fun :)...ANAND MALHOTRA Alok has been one of the few individuals that I can say without any doubt in my mind to be genuine in his opinions and intentions. He embodies a true sense of humility and compassion. His calm demeanor induces positivity wherever he goes with whomsoever. I wish him the best in his future endeavors. ...SYED ERAJ HASSAN

Aman is easily one of the smartest people I have met on campus. He is large-hearted and believes in living life to the fullest. It has been a privilege to have interacted with him. The chance to share a part of my time here with him has taught me that life is best lived to the fullest. Cheers! ...SYED ERAJ HASSAN I didn’t know him before we got selected for the same live project.. going by the name i expected an angry young man with a turban.. :P but Aman turned out to be completely opposite.. kind hearted guy, easy going, never gets worked up and takes everything with a pinch of salt.. during our interaction with the project mentee i got to witness Aman’s ability to globe.. the guy can talk his way out of anything.. :P.. Best of luck.. :)...Parth Kosada The best dancer and the most talkative person I have known in my two years here. I still remember the night I called you ‘The God’.... You are the person everyone looks towards whenever Prince is in one of his fits. Always keep smiling like you do and keep in touch... ARINDAM MAJUMDAR CP Singh! If it wasn’t for your 5:30am wake up call on day 1 of summers, I would have missed RIL process and you would not have got the honour of becoming my co-worker :-P. You are one of the smartest people I have met on this campus and a true ‘yaron ka yaar’! I wonder why we didn’t interact much in Roorkee, I still remember we had met on the day of FMS interview and I am sure none of us would have thought that we would end up together in Indore :-D. My good memories of MBA types group work are those we all used to do together in your room for summers preparation and I used to be always amazed with how quick a leaner you are. Let the party continue Mumbai :-) ...GHOLAP GAURAV ANIL You’re one of the few people with whom I can have a conversation about the most insightful and most random things in life. Your exchange stories were fun to hear and it surely made me regret my decision of staying back on campus. I know Iâ??m assured of a good time when Iâ??m hanging out with you. Things I’ve loved sharing with you: Long walks, Random Banter, Ayn Rand, DJ Nights, Room Parties, Section A, MyC and now Reliance. I’m so glad we made it to Reliance together. Mumbai is definitely going to Rock!...ANKITA SATIJA Aman, one of those with whom I interacted on the very first day on campus.. Knowing you during Bakra time was altogether different from later encounter as my POC for resume iteration. You were helpful and it was nice to have you as mentor. Wish you al the best for your future.. :)...NIDHI SINGH I know you are a fan of my one liners and always ask me to tell that famous phrase! :D Had a lot of fun in Section A and then obviously in Munich! :D Extremely intelligent and smart ( IIT ) :D . you can work out your way out any tough situation thrown at you! Hope to stay in touch dude! ...RAHUL YADAV

A die heart photographer and traveller, Amit has been one of my closest friends at IIM-I. The most shopaholic and extravagant guy I have ever met. But, has a specific taste of things that he buys and subjects them to extreme pre-purchase examination :P He is a little shy and extremely moody..pata nahi kab maun vrat chalu ho jaye :P.May you get all the sucess that you desire. Take care..stay in touch !!!!...SHOBHNA SHRUTI A veteran photographer, but most importantly a very good and reliable friend you can find in Amit. He is that kind of friend who, when beside you, brings with him a feeling that nothing can go wrong as long as he is around. A very down-to-earth and helpful person, he is always there for his friends. Had some really good time in RIP and HOP. Speak out a little more, and no reason is there why you will not get anything you want in life. Best of luck bhaai!...DEBAYAN BISWAS Amit is a calm person who is always smiling. I got to know him when we were a part of the same assignment group in term 1. He will never say no to any work. He loves to travel and is an avid photographer. One common thing that we share is Mumbai. I have never seen him getting angry or complaining about anything. It was great knowing you. All the very best for all your future endeavours. ...BHANTI PRATIKSHA DEEPAK are mere cheete....mere first year k partner. I have never seen so much positivity in ne person. U r like that constant ray of light that will never go away. Tumne jo watt lagayi na first year me meri, abhi tak lag rhi hai.

Wish u all the best things in life. ...HIMANSHU NIGAM AMIT KUMAR My neighbor for two years and Partner in all crimes :D :D. will never forget the fun we had in our “BACKCHODI” with lighters, scissors, thinner, blades, fire-extinguisher, etc etc. These two years would have been difficult without you.

Lasting impressions about college :

Amit is one of the most light-hearted and fun loving guys I know here. And a clear testimony to his effervescent nature is that in spite of us never really hanging out a lot together or being a part of same friend circle, I always remember talking to him like a friend and perhaps being treated like one. We were wing-mates (infamous J Block johnnys) so we bumped into each other once in a while. But I think the highlight of our time here has to be that day in Praha with you and Gauraw which was perhaps one of my most memorable outings on exchange (and that reminds me of your joke of how I kept talking about everything on student exchange only in superlatives)! :P The conversation we had during the journey from Praha to Munich was one of those men-talking-heart-to-heart chats which wouldnâ??t be possible if you werenâ??t the genuine person you are (and that funny argument over whether the guy who boarded on the coach was gay or not, I guess I convinced you on that speaking for the motion) :P Also, I guess we are quite like minded about our ideas in general, at least of the few that we have shared. Would love to travel sometime together again! Have fun and be the same person you are! :)...ISHAN BOSE One of the first few that i know on campus. had a good time during the RIP trip. very bold and macho on the outside but concerned on the inside :P...It’s good knowing you!...SAI PRASANNA KUMAR LAVU I became great friends with Yadav ji during the trip and that trip really brought out a different side to his personality. Before that trip, I only saw him as an ulti-bakchod and DCP king :P. But during the trip, his other skills like ability to make friends effortlessly, ability to deal with difficult situations and also his (average) humour generating capabiltiires were brought out. Spent some great times discussing both high level stuff and doing normal bakchodi during our multiple trips together. He was the advisor in chief with regards to relationship and ‘other’ matters and I am grateful to him for that. Ladka ghissu aur machau bhi hai and I wish him all the best for his career and his future in general. Sath mein ek aur trip plan karte hain yadav ji!...MRIGANK GUTGUTIA

Amit Maheshwari, the statistician of our class :-). One of the most patient guy I have ever seen :p (remember Term III where you had to bear me for 3 whole month!! :-) ). Very hardworking & sincere guy. Your CP’s were the most remarkable in our class ;). Glad to have a friend like you, Wishing you all the very best for future :-) and hope that our paths may cross again in the future...PANKAJ DHINGRA one of the most active member of the group. Always eager to learn something from anything he does. I learnt a lot from you in the courses we did together and realized how excited you get when you see excel and data :P. Keep learning , be happy and keep rocking :)...ANKUR JAIN Amit - calm; composed; number freak; I wish you have a great career. All the best... VIGNESH A P Stat-Guru...toying with numbers to extract hitherto unknown meanings come naturally to him. I’ll remember you for your patient CPs trying to explain to our teachers that the Exhibits actually have meaning beyond their comprehension. And they were aptly befuddled. I believe you were the QT Profs favorite in class...and deservingly so. Section parties on the other hand showed us the fun side of you. Overall...pucca manager material! Great knowing you and ATB :)...MONAMI BAGCHI Pagal Bhai!!! :P Don’t know why people call him that!. My neighbor for 2 years at IIMI. Forget whatever you read above, Amit is very impatient and ‘eager to learn’ person. Always reading news on his mobile and updating others. He is as loud and confident as they come, straight forward and to the point. You have achieved most of the things you set out to, during your stay at IIMI, hope you keep doing that through out. Without giving his quirks away, this is a guy you must meet to know. Hope you have a pleasant stay in Chennai. :P Oh yeah, He is also a Vampire by the day. :P...NAVTEJ VERMA In one AMR class, the prof mentioned Mahalanobis distance. And Amit told me with a lot of emotion in his voice that that was the founding father of ISI. To call him an analytics nerd would be an understatement. Pagal bhai sometimes does pagal harkatein, like dropping salt in a pitcher full of water. Wish you the best, and hope that your pagal harkatein (or not :P) !...SHREYA TANDON Amit, it was wonderful working with you on the AIESEC live project. Thanks for giving me that opportunity. You are extremely passionate about your work and I am sure this quality of yours shall take you places. Good luck!...RAKHI SHARMA

Oh my dear , I have no words to say how much I like your childlike nature. You are a amazing person . Nice to have known you :)...DEBJANI DEY The very best group partner I would say! I knew you only through those 15 sessions of lecture-induced slumber, but in you I found a girl I could look up to for her sweet nature! It was great knowing you Amrita!...MONAMI BAGCHI For all your bakar, it is astonishing to see how you still maintain the image of a silent girl! :P There are times when your close friends have to explicitly tell her to stop talking! But then we rarely do, because it is so much fun when you talk. A sweet, funny and simple girl with a great ability to understand other people - that’s the least I can say about you, but I guess that is the nicest thing I have said about you to your face :P. We were sidies in class for the whole of 1st year. We hardly spoke for the 1st term. But then “BOLLYWOOD/HOLLYWOOD” brought us together and we bonded ever so quickly. I guess the only time either of us was close to being thrown out of class was when we were caught for the same reason by a prof. It was all totally worth it buddy! HOP was another memorable experience - despite the fact that you were exempted from the 6.45am ypga and I wasn’t :P . Wish we had more classes together in the 2nd year, but I guess we more than made up for it in the hostel. You have always been a great support system for me on campus. You have the knack of making me smile in my worst of moods and so, by default you were the person on campus who got to see me in the worst of my moods :D Thank you so much for just being “You”.Will miss you loads! Abhi keep in touch bolna pade to taang tod dungi!! :P...M DIVYA DEEPTHI Got to know you during Diwali break in First year. The girl who taught me (or tried to) pose for photographs. Got to know you better during RIP and there was no looking back. You are a great friend who doesn’t need to be told anything. You have a way of understanding the unsaid. And you are super creative :) My first official rommie! I couldn’t have lived through internship without you... You were there everytime I needed a friend. The FIR times in Mumbaiââ?¬Â¦ late night cravings for good coffeeââ?¬Â¦ So caring you’ve been. You made my stay in Mumbai great.. Thank you girl... My entire family loves you:) Being the person that you are, its difficult for anyone not to :) Stay the same and keep in touch :) All the best kiddo!...S KANCHANA Hey, it was a pleasure working with you in the Ahvan C&D Team, especially putting up our posters in Acad Block in the wee hours of the morning! Talented yet humble, you are a wonderful person at heart...Wishing you a wonderful life ahead. Keep smiling always :) ...THAKUR ANSHU MANOJ

First up. Hate me all you want but I wish you hook up with someone like ‘Ms. Briganza’ from K2H2. You deserve being called ‘Mr. Malhotra’ in the way only she can :P You are a contradiction of sorts kid...you are so sincere and padhaku that you scare me (a lot of us actually). But heaven save people who know your dusht side...you are equally crazy if not more..It has always been fun chatting with you...hatching plans on how to be sanskaari during interviews, discussing about how certain CPs shape up in class...and devious plans about Mediacom parties. I have no clue how your mentor will handle a firebrand like who who might as well may end up telling him off for his inefficiency! Stay this happy and this sharp always! Been a pleasure knowing you!...MONAMI BAGCHI Anand is the honest and affable guy next door whom you are bound to fall in love. Sincere in studies.An excellent writer.Foodie(Best cook in HOP and plans our dinner menu). Always around to help you and yeah, he is another ocd freak.Get a girlfriend and enjoy that part of life :).Had a really great time with you.B in Touch!...ABHIJIT DAS The quintessential kid of MediaCom. Possibly one of the best writers on campus, one of the few perfectionists I’ve worked with and a fun guy to hang around with. Had a lot of fun during HOP and all the times we partied. Great music buff, though our taste doesn’t really match. Get a girlfriend soon enough :P...KIRAN RADHAKRISHNAN You are a gem of person. You know the tit bits of handling well. It was great to knwo you. Kepp in touch. May god bless you in your endeavors ahead...BARLEEN KAUR Had loads of fun with Malhotra (As we fondly call him) during RIP and HOP. He is one guy whom we tease a lot and he takes everything in good spirit. He loves to play pranks on people. He has a great vocab and is an extremely sincere person. The most memorable thing about him would be his having Uncle Chips and Sprite (As has been mentioned by a few people above) during stomach upset. Stay the way you are and all the best for all future endeavours! ...BHANTI PRATIKSHA DEEPAK

Jally, my room neighbor for two years, iska naam Anil bhi hai that very few of us remember now :D. Will be there whenever you call him and a mind blowing sportsperson. Just name the sport and Jally must have already excelled in that. Initially, at the start of college somehow we were not able to talk for around 10-15 days even we being neighbours but that does not matter now. We made RIP group together but unluckily we had to split into different groups but we made those amendments in HOP group and had a great time in Himalayas. Bhai, two songs will always remind be about you, Sweet child of mine and Zinda, and you remember why na, they were your alarms and I had to listen these songs for 3-4hrs straight :D. But you always are a gem of a person, you always respected me and was there whenever I called for you. Wishing you a successful future ahead and stay in touch. â?º...PRAKHAR KATIYAR sporty guy ...kuch bhi khila lo ...n kuch bhi khila lo :D ..good at heart..supportive guy..mercurial..after a pegs aaur too ..an entreprenurr....but we all are...n d plan is on...:D ..second year mein v r spending more time toghetr becuase of obvious reasons :P...have a good career...n choose one in sports..u will have fun ..ow our business plan is on \m/...we will rock ...AKHIL DATTANA Jally, well where do I start. You were the first few people I had met on campus here and trust me I still blame Akhil for that each day. It was fun bossing you around initially when I treated you like a junior but then you showed your true form and well since then its been a torture! Though we always had our spats, we somehow always teamed up to take Swarnkar’s case. But truly, it was fun working you on the marathon though I had to shout a lot in the process! But one thing good that you had was your enthusiasm to take part in competitions! Rarely have I seen people on this campus who took part for the fun of it but you sure did which is also apparent from the fact that you had Swarnkar, Sidhant and Verma on your team... Haha.. To conclude, you’ve irritated the hell out of me, you’ve raided my room in search of food and you’ve challenged me for random stuff but yet it was fun. And ya, kudos to your eating capacity! Eat well, that paunch requires high maintenance... ...ADITYA AGARWAL arre tu kya kya khelta hai :P Funniest senior I came across. Be happy,.. Will miss you a lot..

ABHISHEK UPADHYAY Respected Sir, (ISM lingo never dies) Your presence has eased my life here.. Your stories of ISM over Old..M*** will be cherished. The comment of yours about me as “True ISMite” made my Btech complete. Sir ji.. Your demeanour is something found rarely in IIM and it has its own magnetism. All the best and looking forward to your blessings in my life ahead too .....SANKALPA SARKAR Anindya , you are someone I wish I could have interacted more with over the past couple of years. Despite that, our interactions have been very memorable to say the least, and ya apart from the fact that you torture me when you are drunk :D it was really nice knowing someone as interesting as you and I hope we do stay in touch in Mumbai :) ...Deepak Talluri It is unfortunate that I only got to know Anindya in the last term here at Indore. I reconcile with myself, or try to, by telling myself that I at least had the chance to. Anindya is an interesting person - intelligence that impresses and anecdotes that will leave you in awe. All the best for your future endeavors. ...SYED ERAJ HASSAN I am writing this testimonial from my heart, Pandey ji :).You have been an inspiration right from the time I’ve got to know you here at Planet-I. We’ve been the last bench buddies during the first three terms at Planet-I.more than that, I truly admire you in terms of your down-to-earth personality, and your sharp intellect.Truly, I have never met someone in my life who is as smart as you bhai.That being said, I also take you as my “elder-brother” in all sense.....one of the very few people whom I look forward to as my guides in these 2 years of MBA .Bhai with your attitude, and calm demeanour, you have got the respect and adulation of perhaps the entire batch at IIM-Indore.True buddy for life,and a guru for me!....I will miss youbhai....do keep me in your prayers.Will remember you fondly for the rest of my life, and hope our friendship does not end here! :).....Love and respect! :)...

We would have never talked if we were not in the same assignment group in the third term...but I am glad that happened :P ... I think we became good friends after that :P I think my first statement speaks a lot about you...generally a very reserved person( that changed somewhat in second year :P ) but once someone knows you you are one of the most friendly and helping person. You would generally listen to my crap and give advise also /\ We have had some great moments together during intern and after that :)....my intern was fun mostly because of you, harsh, Rishab, Swami and Rohitesh (ur mad cravings for mango shakes :P )...you are one of the most talented girls int the campus (read this as Ghissu :P) but even after so many requests never taught me anything :P A party-animal and every time becomes the centre of attraction of every party because of her doublemeaning comments ( I agree thats ur USP :P) It was fun knowing you, wish you great success in life and keep in touch :) :)...CHINMAY NAHAR My initial impression of Anjel was that of a girl who quietly goes about her life in the most uncontroversial manner. To say that I was wrong is an understatement. Get her started and she will talk without any inhibitions and with little care for being judged. It is in those conversations that I will find the person that I treasure and look back with a sense of nostalgia. I wish her the best in her life, full of love, happiness and chardonnay. ...SYED ERAJ HASSAN Anjel Joseph â?? Without you I would have never realized that nerds can be super fun too :P Yes! This girl is a nerd. Donâ??t get fooled by her cool demenour. She is one of the most sincere people I have ever met. My 1st year would have been a hell had it not been for her notes :P But unlike others from this herd, this girl really knows how to have fun. Its just easy to be with her â?? you can be yourself and she wonâ??t judge you. She is straightforward, honest and super confident . Her only issue is that she is in love with her room. She just wonâ??t leave the comfort of her blanket in her dimly lit room. I have no clue how does she study in such an ambience! My partner in watching all the tv series (even the crappy ones), I am going to miss our non-stop blabber, our gossips and our walks. But most of all, I will miss you! All the best! Stay in touch (or I will kill you :P ) ...TRISHLA Angel? Far from it. I met her at NIT Trichy before coming here, and was excited to be joining her at Indore a couple years later. Definitely among the smartest women I’ve met. And laziest. That’s probably why we barely hung out here, I’m no better. With stunning intellect and a classy attitude to boot, Anjel is making it big in life the minute she decides she wants to. All the best Anjel! PS:Thanks for all the Fin you taught me. It’s been murderous ever since. ...BHARATH GANGADHARAN

The health freak of our campus. I have never seen a person before with so much self control. The passion for a healthy lifestyle is what defines you. You are a great teacher and a superb artist as well. It was nice meeting you, you are very very different from others. I am sure you will go a long way forward.

QT, IF would not have been the same without your help. :) Wish you a bright future ahead. Keep in touch!...Chandan Nikhil K Disciplined and balanced. He was the guy in section B who would analyze, not just read the cases and give insightful CPs. No matter what the subject, the prof would have to admit that he had a good point. He was often seen doing push-ups (or something like that) in the pataal stairs in the first year. He is hardworking and chilled out. It was good to know you. Wish you the best!...SHREYA TANDON The “Myopic” guy of section B...He is really a hardworking guy n of the people who truly believes in staying fit...It ws sometimes admirable but mostly amusing to notice u working out on the lamp posts n staircase of patal lok...He is a very intellectual and determined person which I got to know during group assignments in term 2 which i used to free ride most of the time :P Some of the CPs u gave were really amazing n more so coz u didnt read the cases sometimes...It was gud knowing u...May u hav a gr8 future ahead...God bless u:)...

A very few people around have got an opportunity to know Ankit. He has been away from the public attention throughout his stay in Indore. And I feel glad to have known him since day one on campus. The first year patal lok meetings post dinner and the RIP will be etched in my memory. I am extremely happy for whatever you have achieved so far and I am sure you will continue to do so. Thank you for all the support you showed the other day. It means a lot. We (the RIP gang) have not been meeting so frequently these days for various reasons (your frequent city visits being first in the list :P) but I am sure we will be in touch :) Cheers! ...RAHUL NAGDEV Ankit and I got to know each other during the summer placements in the first year. Our interactions have been scarce but what I gather is an individual who I can talk to on a range of interesting and diverse subjects. I have been fortunate to have gotten to know you and look forward to having the opportunity to interact with you wherever life takes us. Good Luck!...SYED ERAJ HASSAN Ankit has been truly the dark horse on campus. Not many know about his existence on campus still :P But I am among the few lucky ones to know him well. Our gang of five (Rohan, Rahul, Ravi, Ankit and moi) had our share of fun on campus and at RIP (remember gazing at stars in the night in the middle of nowhere/pump scene/failed bandavgarh :P). Ankit epitomizes suaveness and conducts himself in a highly elegant manner which is quite needed for many of us :P I enjoy some of the duels between Ankit and Ravi as they almost always have an opposite view and its fun to be the observer. :P His niceness and understanding nature makes him approachable for any problem that you may have. Gem of a guy! Stay in touch and good luck with your future (work and otherwise :))...HITESH H CHANDNANI Best CR of the world :)...JAIPAL MANDYAL IIM Indore ke media team mein rehna ... aur apna page hi na bharna aisa ye bhaisahab hi kar sakte hain ...

My best friend on campus and a great person to spend time with. Thanks idiot for being there. I’m not exactly sure how I should be using this space so I’ll keep it short and simple. I know I’ve done more than my fair share of driving you up the wall (that’s a two way street if any) but you’ve stuck around all the same. Among other things, I’m going to miss talking to you about random shit and hearing what you think, your silly attempts at humour and your straight-to-the-face advice. Just stay the way you are and youâ??ll find yourself going places. Irrespective of where we go from here, I hope weâ??ll always remain good friends. Much love...ADITYA BALARAMAN Iâ??ve known Ankita for almost three and a half years now and I find it extremely difficult to write about her in such limited space. We came to Indore together and since then have spent most of the time together, be it working on assignments, competitions, live projects or RIP, HOP. Sheâ??s one of the most dedicated and hardworking person Iâ??ve ever met. Sheâ??s extremely committed to the job and I have never seen her shrugging off any of her responsibilities. Sheâ??s quite mature and knows how to handle her emotions well. Probably thatâ??s why I always find it very tough to read her thoughts. Ankita..I will always remember those times when you supported me, be it the election campaigns or SPC selection process. Youâ??ve been a great motivator and an awesome friend. And thatâ??s precisely the reason I respect you a lot. Since weâ??ve been together for such a long time, I guess itâ??ll take me some time to adjust to an environment devoid of you. I wish you a great career and rocking life ahead. Cheers! ...SIDDHARTH SINGHAL Veyr smart and stubborn (As hell I must say :)) - the first 2 words that come to mind. Ankita reminds me of this 18 year old girl who’s quick to gain respect of people around her, strong on the outside but soft inside.She is one to wholeheartedly lay your trust on to cover your back.Will never forget the post summers period -> alc, poker,nickelodeon stuff, walks around campus, add’s room, terrace.Every single time we’ve drunk together in small or big groups I’ve had a great time.I’m sure Mumbai is going to be a whole new bunch of wonderful moments to cherish. PS. You’re yet to customise my mobile apps. Man are you organised or what !...HARSHVARDHAN V Sattu aka Guruma you were on hell of a CR ( you can ignore what I usually say about that :P). Satija is usually pretty chill but I have had the privilege of being on the other side of her temper, because of me basically trying to make her life hell. Your ability to remain cool(:P) and to rally votes for anyone is something I will always respect you for. I think you have a great potential to become a great leader but you will have to be a bit less risk averse for that. I seriously hope you test the limits of your potential in your future.May god bless you with all the success in life. Cheers for all the good times we had and looking forward to a great time in Mumbai.~~...HARKIRAT SINGH

Hmm, What do you say about a guy who is so generous that he lets people copy even his name in a test. :P One of the most chilled out people on campus. Knows a lot about politics but never indulges in it. Always ready to accompany you anytime, anywhere. He is the kind of guy you need in your group. (Designated driver, anyone?!) Wish you lots of success in your future and let’s hope we take many trips together for years to come. ...NAVTEJ VERMA

Bhai hamesha ese hi rahena, people will always respect you!! Wish you very best luck for your life :) ...Vishal Shah Hmm, my neighbour and i can safely say my first friend on campus. The person who coined the term ‘Gupta Ji’ by which now almost everyone calls me. Ab jo Navtej and Shah ne likha hai woh to by default implied hai. One thing that i discovered about him more in 2nd year is his taking up responsibility and driving the whole group- be it during HOP (also did that during RIP) or any of the assignments. my first shot at hostel life might have been very tough and miserable initially if not for him, In him, i got family away from home, always looking after me and advising me on every serious matter. (In retrospect, i think i should have listened more to what you said). But the two things that I learnt most from him and without which my hostel life would not have been complete- Not bathing daily and watching a lot of TV series and movies. :P. All the best and keep munching Sev! Sorry, couldn’t end this without any of my deadly PJs :P...ROHIT KUMAR GUPTA haan toh har alternate weekend par ghar bhaagne waale ladke :P :P (to say u Indori!! ) :P It was if not fun but great to have a trip with you to ludhiana...got to know u better :) Hoping we get the money back though :P Hv a great life ahead n god bless :)...ABHISHEK UPADHYAY mast ho tum..Chilled out, cool n calm everytime. Nice friend to spend time with. I still wonder why the hell Gujjus talk so much???? Wish u all the cool things in ur life ...HIMANSHU NIGAM Ankur, one of my better friends on campus. Relaxed, chilled out, a guy who speaks his heart out and someone very dependable. I shared so many common interests with him, that it was always a pleasure spending time with him. We both are movie buffs, foodies (though being veg, he’s missing a hell lot :P), cricket maniacs, and love discussing politics. Your sincerity, intelligence, love for programing and an afffable personality will take far in your career and personal life....ARPIT TANDON

Bakra group mate - Section B class mate - seat next to me - group mate in term 1. For my first my few days/months in planet I, everywhere I would go, Ankur would be there. Not sure if you remember the bakra football match, but I am pretty sure that we played together there also :). One of the most chill guys in campus. You always got the feeling that Ankur was never worried about anything. Never played poker with him, but I will safely assume that he is a master at it becuase he spent the entire first year playing poker on his phone :D It was great sitting next to you in section B and I enjoyed a lot! Have great fun in prataap snacks and keep in touch :)...KARTHIK HARIHARAN Ankur is a humble,down-to-earth guy ... He is very good at choosing what words to speak... This one quality will win lot of friends for him, he will never be short of company... But now lets come to what he has done for two years... He has played poker , he has to because it was only in his room jahan poker ki dukaan chalti thi :-).... Will miss all those poker days with you and the group , dont know how I am going to survive without it... Forgot to mention the fantastic time we all had in the group at Bedni(HOP) All the best for future Bhai!!...TUSHAR AGRAWAL

Anoop, the oldest guy in our class. We became friends since the preparation phase of our section wars in talent night. Over the span of two year, we became very good friends. My booze partner, fellow badminton player (he plays really awesome) and an awesome guitarist. He is one of the most sincere and hardworking guys i’ve met in campus. We had such awesome parties together, specially all the chats over smoke and impromptu guitar sessions. We’ll have lot more parties together. All the best for your future ...SENAJIT CHAKI Sasi is a guy who commands respect without trying. His maturity is inspirational. It’s baffling how he got along so perfectly well with people here, considering they are mostly quite junior to him. He has the drive and ;boldness to take risks and make a difference, and this was evidenced throughout his tenure as arguably the most demanding position here, Ahvan Coordinator. He is always open to new ideas, and endorses a similar approach to anyone he works with. I would consider the introduction of Ahvan’s Curveball to be among its biggest successes this year, and Sasi was the man behind its inclusion. Though his work profile did him no favours at the job scene at IIM Indore, he is a man who will adapt and rise very quickly. As a person, he’;s extremely friendly, unbelievably patient and a great listener. And that’s why Sasi is going to make it big in life....BHARATH GANGADHARAN Anoop!! You are a very good friend.. Some one who is so mature and cool..Be the same..Wishing you all the very best in life.. I am sure that you will reach great heights.. keep in touch :)...RIZWAN MOHAMMED P A

One of the first people I met during my stay at IIM Indore. Still remember walking into NC3 and seeing this lad sitting at the corner of the central section in the last row. Figured out we are going to be benchmates for the whole year. A fellow Bengali and someone with whom I definitely shared some of the most cheerful memories on campus. Our last bench gossip and giggles and your creative sketches on a piece of paper and his fantasy questions to me were clearly what kept me going despite the unrelenting boredom of classes. Only a bewildered Chitresh was a witness to our shenanigans. Being in the same hostel block meant that we interacted more outside the class. Our drinking sessions(Classic Bar, Red Dragon, Gokul’s) and the attendant conversations would probably leave a bystander in absolute shock and horror. At a more aesthetic level, I think we shared the same wavelength when it comes to movies and books. Your carefree attitude is something I have always liked. Just be yourself and hope you have a great career ahead. May all your dreams come true. Hope to have more fun and frolic with you in Mumbai when we meet. Have a great life ahead. Cheers!!!!!!...SAYAN BAGCHI First things first, I am writing this for the second time because this fucker deleted it the first time around, trying to explore what the cross sign in the right of the comment means. So, don’t expect this to be all mushy mushy this time around :P. You, The ruthless and emotionless beast, as we know you, are one of the smartest guys that one can ever come across. One of my very few Bong friends because at heart he is not a bong ;) (We love being bongs only for the food and nothing else). I know your preference for catering to the mass market segment and your love for workshops and 2 credit courses, but its high time you switch to the premium segment and a 4 credit course( Only 3 people will get this joke) :P. Your scenarios will be an everlasting memory. The one dialogue I still remember is when I had commented that 10% of the campus must be making love every night( based on the number of couples). And your innocent reply: 10 percent means 45 out of 450, and that implies someone is having a threesome :P ;) On a serious note, your command and grasp over the English language will make an average journalist look like a 10 year old. You will definitely have an amazing life ahead. Have fun. Cheers!!...ARINDAM PAUL

Anshu bhai, the permanent CR of QT profs. The guy who had an anecdote for literally every situation with all his stories about the coal mines and IT-BHU. Gets serious in funny situations in a funny sort of way (extreme dedication while rafting... ‘chalao, ache se chalao, ladkiyon ache se chalao’ :D:D). The presentation you gave in Utpal’s last class would be the baap of any presentation ever made. Wish you the best mate. Much more happiness surely awaits you :)...KARANDEV SINGH KAMRA Anshu bhai (I guess it was I who started calling you Bhai) is a very dear friend who always excels in things he likes to do. A neighbour for the whole of PGP1, we shared so many jokes, CPs and then those card sessions in term 3, apka hindi ka gyan itna gehra hai ki aapke kuch muhavre aur bare aaj bhi logo k samaj nhi aati! :D Jaldi high ho jate ho aap ! One thing about you which I will always remember is you did not apply for a company because of ethics! Hats off Anshu bhai .. people like you are very few around...with your immense talent and the way in which you tell things which makes people listen to you! You surely have made a few people your fan ! :P Aise hi haste hasate raho.. aur ab wapas sarkari naukri me hi jaa rhe ho..I-Banker ! :D touch me rehna ..cheers...RAHUL YADAV So the wingmate from IIT n the coal mines :P I still don’t know how u would do 8 bottles but will remember the fun times we had in the wing discussions and E.T.....all the best for the life ahead whichever u choose...stay in touch bro :) :)...ABHISHEK UPADHYAY Anshu Bhai! You are the dude! Term III was probably the most awesome group ever. You, Pallav and I made a great team so much so that even Jayasimha was amazed. You are the most genuine, sincere guy I know and I was truly privileged to have you as a friend! Thanks for all the good times and here’s wishing you all the success in life! Cheers! ...VIVIAN PAUL GONSALVES The other wingmate - Anshu bhai has been one of the best yet silent wingmates I have had for a long time. Didn’t help that we were both in morning-evening sections. I came to know him much better in the 2nd year and one could see what a fun-loving chill person he is. Loves to party. Didn’t mind my lond songs at late night at all, so I couldn’t have imagined a more tolerating roommate than you. The daaru wing night at RD was just brilliant :) .Wish you keep in touch and all the best for the future. ...ARUP MANDAL First time I met you in train..never known that we will spend more time in train than in campus :P Well, no need to tell you that stay in touch n blah blah..Wherever u stay, u’ll have to come back to Gorakhpur only :P :P ATB for your career. Enjoy life!! :) ...payal anand

Teri aur meri pata nahi kyun har baat pe argument ho jaati hai, jab bhi hum group mein hote hain. Magar jab bhi sirf hum do saath main baithe hote hain, time mazze se katta hai. Jitna bhi time spend kiya hai, sahi kiya hai. And jitne bhi arguments kiye hai, kuch na kuch seekhne ko milla hai. Baahar jaana, idhar-udhar tehelna, room pe time waste karna; sab itna jaldi beet gaya pata nahi chala. Jiss bhi job mein jayega, jisse bhi shaadi karega aur chahe kuch bhi kare, khush rahiyo. :) ...PRADEEP ROSHAN BARWA Anshu.. A forever smiling face, a story teller, amazingly friendly person who exuberates warmth. :) He has always considered himself as my brother and thats how he used to call me, ‘Prakarsh Bhai’. :) This is one person who puts in a great amount of hard work academically and at the same time makes sure not to miss any opportunity of partying with friends. :D A guy who loves to eat Nafeez Biryani and Masala Dosa & Aaloo Parantha from Dosa Point. We have stayed side by side during the first year and though, in second year had different hostel blocks but have managed to meet up quite often to relive all the memories of first year :) He is a great person to be with, a responsible and a trustworthy friend! All the times that we have shared have been very memorable! I wish you all the success for your future endeavours! be in touch! :)...PRAKARSH AREN Anshu bhai! :) All you only need to do is talk to him for 5 minutes and you’ll realize how friendly and funny this guy is and will change your mood immediately. Nafees Biryani is his favorite, we calculated and he spends about 7000 rupees a month just on eating (Prakarsh is the proof :P). One of very few people on campus who are incredibly straightforward, and genuine. His huge friend circle is a testimony to that. All the best yaar, I know you’ll do very well for yourself in years to come. Be in touch! :) ...VIKALP KUMAR NIGAM

Yo! I guess any testimonial for you will be incomplete without a mention of all the good and weird things we both like :P From our first love (Khaana) to games(that you introduced me to) to customized greetings and smileys to our cooking experiments- we have been a pair of crazy people sharing fun times together.You strike me as a brilliant person whom I have been lucky to have met. Few people here know how smart you are or what a brilliant quizzer you are or about your high dose of sarcasm/biting humor. But then again few people know about your phobia for anything that requires you to socialize :P I will miss not being able to chat with you, not being able to comment on all the spams that hit our inbox, not being able to complain about mess food, not being able to go “food” shopping, not being able to share those moments when we both are thinking the same thing at the same time. But, I am glad that I know for sure that we will remain the closest friends that we have become :) I have told you this once before, and I will say it again for I truly mean it- you inspire me to be a better person every day :) To all the wonderful times we have had and to all those special moments we are yet to share- Cheers!...JYOTHI GARG Hey â?¦you are one of those few ppl I would like to remember aftr the clg gets overâ?¦we surely had some very happy moments togetherâ?¦.n how u hide urself when v all wanted to capture those happy moments....ur craze for foodâ?¦u seriously showed me so many thingsâ?¦I never knew they existâ?¦ wish u loads of luck, health, wealth, happiness..:).:).:)... AASHIMA SAINI You are a wonderful person . I must say I have never seen a girl so honest and committed towards her responsibilities. No doubt you are also a brilliant girl . Nice to have known you :)...DEBJANI DEY Anuja, one of the most calm person I have ever seen :-), Doesn’t talk too much (but when she speaks others do listen and take note of it!! :p :p). She is one perfectionist & its hard to find any flaw in her work :-). If she is part of your team be assured she will find a way out of all issues :d. Glad to have a friend like you, wishing you all the very best for future & hope our paths cross again in future:-)...PANKAJ DHINGRA You complete me. As a quizzer. :P. Sorry bina cheesy hue kaam nahi chalta. One of the best quizzers I have come across, vast storehouse of trivia and connoisseur of the “steampunk” genre :P. Bahut quiet ladki with a dry sense of humor and sharp brain. She tends to express her happiness like Kristen Stewart. Thanks for putting up with my late-coming and forgetfulness. Wish you the best. ...SHREYA TANDON A silent neighbor, cracks subtle jokes n is a sweet girl...bt a person who hates it wen her pictures are taken n a real fun to convince her to take dem....

I don’t know what to say. Really! We have come a long long way. This can not be a coincidence. Both of us left CBS for unknown reasons, went to Symbi, did almost everything together, stayed together, got through IIM Indore, hell we even got the same bakra group, same section, same hostel, competitions won together and what not. Most of our success and good times have come together. It’s like life is continuously telling us that we should hold on to this friendship forever. I can’t write about 1-2 moments here. It’s not possible to bring it down to that less a number considering we are literally together all the time. We had our share of professional rivalry in early days but I am honestly telling you that in the past few months especially I feel we have evolved into much much better friends. Do stay in touch bro. Always :). I am glad we met. I haven’t ever told you this but while competing with you in small small things I have really learned a lot from you. I admire your memory and your communication skills. Life has got a lot in store for you. I really wish you good luck :) And once again. Stay in touch. And next time you come to Delhi come to my place. I know that’s long overdue now :D...Ishan Rishabh Kansal How on earth do you know so much!?@!@# You seem to remember every damn thing you have read, perfectly aligning it with some weird framework the teacher must have been teaching and then giving an answer that makes ‘Mr. Sharma fall off the chair!” You are one of the most brilliant...nay THE most brilliant guys I have met here...and yep the first person I met in Planet-I. From creating an entire trove of topics for our ‘paneldiscussion’ in Mediacom to being the Cheese Paratha aficionado at our numerous Alcove dinners.. to proving your Marketing mettle time and again (ITC, HUL...need I say more?) to being an awesome ATLAS player (Yaad hai wo din?) to being a great company pre-HOP and during HOP...you have been a part of some of the best memories that I have created here! (And part of the best memories of Ashish Sadh, Mohan Kuruvilla, Varsha Jain, Bhavani Shankar and our beloved ex-Diro! ;) ) Reallly hope to meet you again in our job life and you have to be in Mumbai to come to 3WM. Manage that and we have a deal! Stay blessed APPLE!...MONAMI BAGCHI The walking encyclopedia, as everyone say, he is our Apalu. There is nothing under the sun, which you donâ??t know of and memory to aisi ki Google bhi sharma jaaye. Always ready to help, you go to this guy and he wonâ??t even give a second thought to give you time, no matter how busy he is. Party lover and have a unique dance form. I remember those times when before exams you used to take crash course class for us with all the masti during the padhai. Bhai sahi me, ideas ki to koi kami nhi hai tmhare andar, just put up the problem and you will come up with n number of ideas in no time. Favourite of many profs (we doubt that a couple of them even had a crush on him or may be on his brain :D) and also favourite of us and epitome of modesty. I am sure that no matter how old we get but you will still be same Apalu for me. Be in touch and wish you all success in your life. â?º...PRAKHAR KATIYAR

Iphone waale ladke!! :D hv a great life ahead yaar n stay in touch :)...ABHISHEK UPADHYAY When I think of Apurva, I find thoughts in my mind of a person with ideals that a few people can match. He is straight-forward, honest and ever obliging to people around him. I have never seen him complain in situations when people easily whine, instead focusing on the brighter side of life. Others would say that he is passionate about cricket which is obviously apparent if you have spent an hour or two with him but I would rather focus on his qualities that make him the human being he is. Magnanimous and humble, he has been a pillar of strength and support through these two years. That I will never forget. I wish you the best of everything in life. ...SYED ERAJ HASSAN Purva! Although you would disapprove of me writing on this page, I can’t help irking you a little. :P One person who is absolutely pure at heart and with a very secular mindset. Apart from the super passionate topics that interest you, you do seem a little hatke from the rest. I still feel your mind needs more creativity (unmindful of what concrete data suggests :P) to make life more interesting. Stay blessed :)...KEERTHI KOCHERLAKOTA Appu...Only thing that is wrong about you is that tu is time signature main kaise paida ho gaya...

NAVDEEP SINGH CHAUHAN appu raja is a good person. whenever i met him, he always greeted with “Oye” word. i mean even i cant say “oye” as good as appu. cricket lover who talks about cricket more than anything. i wonder if he is going to talk about cricket even on his honeymoon. hehehe. even thinking about is making me feel crazy, hehehe. lol. aisa hi rehna and keep smiling. and thanks for reading my work but u never gave proper feedback. and dont u think that i wud stop sending my work to u. may be its a way we can always stay in touch with each other ...ABHIJEET SINGH Appu, Wow yaar tum itne mast kaise ho. koi kaam ho kabhi bhi ho, always ready. Kabhi NO to bolte hi nahi suna tumhein. Your talent of relating everything with cricket and your trademark head movement to hamesha yaad rahenge. Also, thanks for bringing a family culture in Jugau :). Have a great life :)...Parag Jain Always smiling. Never saw you in an off-mood throughout 2 years. Section C mates in year 1 and wing-mates in year 2. Will always remember you for your clear thought process during GDs and your passion for cricket!!

Lasting impressions about college :

Archit is one of the nicest guys to interact with in campus. He has a helpful nature and also a great person to interact and discuss anything under the sun. Also, his views would make you sit back and think for once, even out of many candid discussions. I knew him mildly due to some night mess interactions in first year but got to know him better during summers break when we both would be head-banging about those BNP Paribas cases till late nights. I have immense respect him for leaving aside the lucrative Placement Committee position and going on Student Exchange (y) Lately, we have discovered a mutual interest in House of Cards and Connect 4. Wish you great luck in your travel business whenever you switch to it, and look forward to have many more interactions in the coming times. Stay blessed :)...ISHAN BOSE Archit is one of the first seniors whom I knew on Planet-I. He has been very helpful and I even bothered him while he was on Eurotrip and still he didnt mind even once. He is a knowledge box and there is rarely anything (except on campus news) that he is not aware of. The best thing about him is his humbleness. One of the best person, I have met in my life. Hope we stay in touch. All the best for your future. ...ASHISH KUMAR Some people cnt be describe with words, for me one is Archit Jain. A guide, brother, friend.. Started during the jpc times, the friendship ws strongly forged to last a lifetime. His humbleness will suprise you and so his knowledge about anything and everything. I will never forget the never-ending discussions about life, placom, relationships and career. I can safely bet that very few people knows me more than archit and feel lucky to keep it that way. Those jpc meetings and interactions at alcove ws all fun bcoz of you. You will keep teasing me about the whole “you are busy” thing but I knw tht whenevr I m in doubt, you are there. Assure you that this is just a start to more awesome meetups ahead :D #JainJain...MAYANK JAIN Smart, intelligent, dedicated, hardworking...i might be running out of adjectives at this rate. Fondly called as “chintit” during mapro times. Very focused and goal oriented. The immense knowledge you have and the detailed analysis you do - I am awestruck all the time. I had a great time during internship with you...It’s good knowing you!...SAI PRASANNA KUMAR LAVU Nothing much to say that he doesnt already know. He has the completely opposite personality and still we are closest friends. The entire euro trip together, the pretension of being in a team for competitions, and the long walks around the campus will remain in memory forever You have been one of the few teachers whom I admire in this campus and have actually learnt something from. Just remember there are lots of things in this world to be happy about. Have a great life and be in touch :)...Parag Jain

It was nice to have a wing mate who had a YOGA MAT and always laughed at it with me. Well to describe you, you will be the one of the most helpful guys I have come across my life. Your actions in spirit modes are the most memorable ones. We had some nice time at exchange too and BARCELONA rocked because of you. It was nice to have a friend like you. you will be missed.

I first got to know him in the Delhi rendevouz ands was the first one to buy a beer there and I was thinking ye banda to dude hai. He is an awesome guy to know and an even better brother to have. He will never say no, no matter what. Soya kam mar and don’t forget to invite me to all the page 3 parties. KEEP ROCKING AND GET MARRIED SOON :P.

The saint who preaches simplicity of life with a sutta in his hand, one who brags about himself without an expression of humility, one who can live with a xxxxl sized hoodie for a lifetime and doesn’t give a fuck about the world. Not just me but everyone around has been a fan of your rhetorical questions (I can imagine you would say FAN KYA? after reading this). May be this isn’t enough to describe how cool a person you are. A brief period of one year and, trust me, I have learnt a lot from you (still not enough I know, in your words: not even half as good as you would like me to be :P). Its not just difficult but nearly impossible to have a perspective of life like you do. the other day if you remember I said i don’t want to be you (with due respect :P) but the point is I can’t even if i try. You have been there for one of the toughest times of my life. and not to forget, for the most bakar times as well (the whole spicing up episode :D). Thanking you for all this just won’t be enough. Plus the story doesn’t end here.. you have to be there for some tough times ahead (i know how sure you are about me being in trouble again:D) .. chal isse jyada short nahi dunga. Have a great life ( I am sure you will have a great one). Cheers! ...RAHUL NAGDEV I came across you as one of the Bengali guys staying opposite to me in I-block! I always thought about you as a very lazy guy who would not waste time on things other than sleeping and eating. :P. You were always seen with Manu back then and people used to say things about you two :P. But then the term I grades proved everyone wrong and thats when I realized what an amazing brain you have! An avid quizzer, you seem to have the knowledge that you can talk sense with almost anyone, a quality to die for. Very early you came into my core group of friends, and since you did not entertain much of the people around, I will be always grateful that you gave me a chance! :D Your open ways of letting the world know how you topped SAPM (marginal utility :P) were just methods to belittle yourself in front of the Fin Greats. That only showed your humility to everyone. Your ways of telling anecdotes about everyone in the group were very hilarious and enjoyed by one and all, since you always knew where to draw the line. Being a fresher yourself, you always loathed them (an irony) but you always used to prove why you were way ahead of everyone. Still remembered the day when I cheered for you in Tata Crucibles in PGP-1!! Sometimes I feel you do not believe in yourself in some of the things that you are capable of doing. But then as they say Success isn’t about how much money you make, it’s about the difference you make in people’s lives. So I know you will have a great life in times to come! Do keep in touch. Cheers.....RAHUL YADAV

One of the most dedicated person I met at Planet-I. Your sincerity in everything you do is amazing, No doubt you performed well academically and in competitions too at Planet-I. You have always been an inspiration for poor souls like me... Hope you reach great heights, and hope to keep in touch....!!...SHAUNAK VISHWAKARMA Sincerity and dedication in everything you did, be it classes, taking notes, assignments, competitions. I always wondered how can one not lose focus. FTSA brought you to normalcy though :D. I always liked working with you coz I knew that you would always put in the effort. Plus, I got to learn loads from you. Hope we are still on with ‘Arjun Nayak U da Punjabi Dhaba’ :p. Do invite me when you get married (which is pretty soon, I heard ;) ). Wish you the very best for your life ahead :)...KARANDEV SINGH KAMRA You are everything a good boy should be... well, I wanted to avoid ‘Dedicated’ and ‘Sincere’ again so had to come up with this. But, truly you are someone who is dependable and can be expected to complete his job with utmost quality. As a colleague and a friend, I have always respected you and wish you all the very best going forward in life....VIVEK THEBARIA The first person I conversed with on campus, it was an amazing co-incidence that he turned out to be the person sitting next to me in the entire first year. It is often said that MBA is more about learning from your peers than teachers. Working alongside him proved to me that this really can be the case. We were in the same group in first term and worked together several times in second year as well. And needless to say each and every one of the assignments we worked on together was an enriching experience. His commitment when it comes to assignments is unmatched and was a source of inspiration for me during my entire two years on campus. While working with him was a little irritating at first, it eventually helped me realize what was necessary to succeed. His ppt and word skills are amazing and even a little intimidating, and resulted in him winning countless competitions. He is perhaps the only person about whom I have never heard anything negative from anyone. His knowledge of the automobile industry is outstanding. And on top of all of this he has a very good sense of humor as well. I would like to wish him best of luck for the future, but this guy doesnâ??t need luck to succeedâ?¦. ...SAURAV GOYAL Captain of our group. Absolutely brilliant guy. Good in Academics and awesome in sports ( the only time he played I-block cricket He hit the ball out of the block and we had to abandon the game). He is very friendly with most guys on the campus. May all your wishes come true..!! :)...SUMANTH J

Intelligent guy with a thunderous voice and eloquent speaking skills which can turn heads. You’ve got all it takes to make it big. Wish you all the best :) ...B.NIRUN Arpit Tandon!!! The man, whom all the men wants to be :P :P. Has all the things of the world in his head but lacks something on his head :P. Jokes apart, he is one of the most wonderful persons I have ever met. U can discuss anything in the world with him, anywhere, anytime (Only before 11 PM cuz he sleeps early everyday even at IIMI :P). Very intelligent but also very jovial (wanted to change others perception of him from being studious to a party person but could not succeed :P), very understanding, a person who can be resorted to inorder to get an advise, honest, sincere, hard-working, down-to-earth, humble, never boasts of himself, excellent presenter, very talkative and the list will never end. Always has ‘hissas’ to talk about :D (I sometimes wonder, even I am as older as u and I do not have even 1% of ur hissas to talk about :( ). As most of the people say that u shud hav got Rank 1 in the insti but because u spend most of the time in canteen waiting for me to complete my food, u had finished in top 10 :(. Can’t take that back but I hav have enjoyed each and every moment being with u. U were a great friend and guide. Thanks for that, hope u be in touch. As our BIG MAN said ‘You’ve got all it takes to make it big’. I wish u all the success in life and hope to see u with ur dream car soon!!! :)...PRABHU KIRAN ANUGARI Hi Arpit, I guess you are the only one who knew from the very start of the IIM-I innings, which sector and which role you wanted be in. That speaks volumes of your focus and foresight. your knowledge and your ability to talk sensibly on any topic is really commendable.Will cherish the RIP memories, great times we shared. Wish you all the best in life. Best Wishes, Sabornee...SABORNEE JANA The most focused and dedicated person I met here at campus. You talk to him about anything and you would surely take away something from the conversation. An avid cricket fan and a foodie. Still remember how you got hot kachoris and jalebis for breakfast during RIP :D. Was fortunate to be in your groups thrice, during term 1, RIP and IVs, and each time I got to learn something from you. I’m sure you would definitely be successful in whatever you do. All the best! ...KARANDEV SINGH KAMRA

I came to know you only while working in the office and especially when we went to Delhi. One thing that I really liked was your gesture to pay when we went out with my family. Though I hated at that time, but now I think of it as something really overwhelming. You’re a good human being and you took all my jokes on you very sportingly. I am the culprit who started this ‘Dood’ joke. :P But jokes apart, I am confident you will have a great career and an awesome life ahead. Just try to stay in touch in spite of your busy schedule. :)...SIDDHARTH SINGHAL Always tries to play the pacifier role..kind of an opponent in every discussion we had and very difficult to convince him too..he tries every possible way to earn the goodwill of others and succeeds in it..can’t forget the Warroom competition I participated with him esp the “value chain slide” :p ..I wish him all the luck in his life..always say in touch :) :)...VENKAT DUBASH.

Love you always!! :) :) ...Nivetha Arun, You are one of the most hardworking guy I have met. I remember seeing you online all night on gtalk and many a times you were up for jogging or watching tennis very early in the morning. Even when it comes to academics You were very sincere in preparing to each and every class, You were also honest in your CPs ( though some were like a labyrith..:P ) I am happy that you will be pursuing a career in Finance. All the best maccha. Take Care.!!... SUMANTH J The ‘kid’ of Section C and the ‘gentleman’ of Placement Committee. Hard-work, sincerity and politeness are qualities which define you in the best way.

The person who taught me how to ‘Take Light’ in life and how so may things in it were GG :P.. From being my Sleeping partner in classes to my companion for the crazy 100 hr Shillong trip, Arup and I have come a long way. We really hit it off in the 3rd Term and I found myself a Football Fan more fanatic than me. His love for ‘Nafees’ has acquired Legendary status and so has his love for sleeping (which at times puts Kumbhkaran to shame). Always there to listen to your problems (though solutions might not always be forthcoming), Arup is the perfect friend one can have. Mr. Mandal- now I can safely say that my world would have been a much poorer place, had you actually gone ahead with your Exchange propaganda in the 5th term. On a different note, I beseech you to hang up your Football boots or else you won’t have any Anterior Cruciate Ligaments left to give away :P I wish I could have visited your place in Mumbai, but there’s still time for that to come to fruition. I am sure you’ll do well in life wherever you go and teach people how to take light(sorry for not trusting you enough in the 2nd term group with that :P). Some years down the line, I visualize you and me enjoying a Manu Utd-Arsenal Football match at a Beach house over drinks(Beer for you, Pepsi for me :-D). So do keep in touch! ...APAL Arup.. The Bengali Babu of our group who can eat for 10 people :P. It’s hard to put our friendship in words but I think you and me both knows its not something which is going to limit itself to the boundaries of IIM Indore. You are one person who can literally take everything light :P Well however funny it might sound that time but I have learnt that from you. Not a lot of time you find someone who can be really relaxed in a stressful environment and I admire you for that. Hopefully I would be able to implement a thing or two I learned from you in my life too :). I would never forget those mid-night tennis and cricket sessions, love for food and Fifa. I really had truckloads of fun with you. And wait. The Gaylestorm and Truffles. Who can forget that :D. Well it has been proven once that even out of IIM Indore (i.e. in Bangalore) we can enjoy together. So I am quite hopeful that it would continue :D. Now that you are coming to Delhi and I would invite you someday to my place and change the definition of Aaloo Paranthas for you :D. Just one complaint :P When I call please pick it up. Because sadly I won’t be able to come and bang at your door after the college ends. Always stay in touch buddy :). Wish you all the success in your life :)...Ishan Rishabh Kansal He is one of the people I admire on the campus for his attitude to life.....one of the coolest guys on the campus who manages to do everything at the last minute as if he has a magical wand /\ . I would always wake up up 10 minutes before the class and you managed to have breakfast when even I had to miss it. One of my first friends in campus and me , rudra and him had a great time in First year during those bakar sessions... I still rue the fact that our wing got divided :’( .....I envy you for the unlimited eating capacity you have...sab jaata kaha hai. You are one of the best and the most positive guys in campus and always remain like that. You should also give singing a try ...who knows :P: Best of luck for your future and keep in touch :). ...CHINMAY NAHAR

Mallika..That is what we have always called you. You are one hell of a friend, awesome company, and unbelievably great entertainer. Languages to bhai tumhe itni aati hai, I feel inferior in front of you. I hope you get great heights in life....And bhai duaaon me yaad rakhna....!!...SHAUNAK VISHWAKARMA We have been in the same section and my initial impression about you was a quiet and shy person. However, HOP just proved evrything wrong. An amazing sense of humor, a great entertainer and the different accents u put up..its unbelievable. Will never forget r Lalu and Mayawati :P :P . Hope we had spent HOP like time since 1st year :) Wish you all the best in life...and yeah never forget to take special care of your face as always..... :P ...DIPAYAN KARMAKAR Asli masale such such...M-E-H M-E-H. Yaar tere liye bohot kuch likhna hai...Only person in planet I who carries his own Pi-Shop in his room...one can easily find inventory worth 10-15K of FMCG stuff at your room at any point of time...lol.....thats freaking awesome... mollika from where do you get inspiration to store so many things? I would never forget our HOP and RIP journey it was supercool to have person like you in the group...who never got angered with any comments, jokes we passed on you....By the way you still have not told about the kind of sound you produce in your room to disturb your neighbours specially Dipu....:P. Osis Molik the multilingual person, your passion for personal care and fashion is matchless.....:P..Now all the jokes apart you as a person is cheerful, happy and fun-loving. Like me you also rarely got frustrated and remained calm, composed most of the time. I would definitely miss our happy days at planet-I..mollika thanks for taking everything lightly and cheers for our friendship !!! All the best for your future career...Keep in touch !!... ANIKET YEVALKAR Mallik the guy who can make you laugh anytime of the day. Our intro began with him stealing my bucket during Bazinga. We were in the same group in HoP and that was when he became such a great friend of mine. This guy has an invincible sense of humour. He loves shopping almost like a girl (Shopping candles all over Nainital). Mallik has immense talent in mimicking funny politiciancs, and I bet our performance in Nanital will be remembered by one and all. Jokes apart, this guy is also good in finance, thanks for handling the BAV assignment. Playing games in class, gossip during dinner, bumping on top of Dipu’s room, those walks to Pi-Shop, we have a hell lot of memories. Wish you a fabulous life ahead and do stay in touch :-)...Rajarshi Biswas If you want to hear the cheapest comment on any issue...mallik is your guy :D...i don’t know what does he eat for such creative imaginations and sense of humour. We started our journey at campus-I as bakara gang...needless to say freerider from day 1 :D ...but yes when you yourself are strained a persons like him in the team can alleviate the spirit of team which is very rare...keep smiling...best of luck......SANJEEV KUMAR

Lasting impressions about college : Will also remember it for b’ful infra, Night mess fun, long walks and talks and hilarious PGPO and

One of the few support systems I had on this campus, one of the few great friends I think I earned after coming here. We have shared so many times together that when trying to recollect as the most defining part of our friendship, I cannot see anything in particular. May be that ‘Asset Bubble’ confession thing was the most important. Those long walks we shared together discussing life, placements, girls and what not. Hardworking, Intelligent, sometimes insecure but always someone to fall back on.. you have been a great friend to me and I hope this continues further (at GS ;) ). Together in VC, Rivals in Sutta business, Together in various competitions and probably going to be flatmates going forward. I hold this friendship in very high regards and hope that it stays the same. Wish you dozens of girls in the days to come!...VIVEK THEBARIA Ghoda...not only the nickname, he lives up to it, even in discussions - “Ghoda main ya tu...”. Well even he has his limit...be it @19 (in game of 29) or drinking (2 pegs) or having a night out (sleeps @ 2AM). But he has his spirits be it cricket or cards, he comes back again and again. Has a great sense of humor, let it be on the receiving end...Had a great one year....have a great life......HEMANTA PRAMANICK “kanchan” yaar... teri asli wala naam bhi mujhe yaad nhi.... aur rakhna bhi nhi chahunga.... elegant finthusiast..... par tere sath reh ke kabhi feel nhi aaya bhai ki mere se itna tagra IQ level wala launda hai.... mast kisi ke sath mingle ho jate ho.... aur aise bhi apni pasand toh haar jagah common hi ho jati hai bhai..... apni biwi ko sambhal kar rakhna :p :p(wahan bhi pani pasand mil hi jayegi)..... have a great life and career ahead........NISHANT KUMAR Ghoda, as we adorably call him. A big time FinHead. I came to know this guy while visiting Manish’s room at J block and we quickly became good friends (Probably for the fact that we are old people :D ). A brilliant student, a card fanatic and a co bar member. And also a co travel enthusiast, who is always ready for a trip. A fun company to be with while boozing. A guy with a good sense of humor, total lack of knowledge of english songs and an ardent “Baby Doll” lover (The song only). Hope we keep on partying together for a long long time. Cheers bhai!!...SENAJIT CHAKI U know what I have never liked ghissu people bcoz they are so boring. But u have been an exception, ghissu for sure u are :P but at the same time an interesting guy. Bakar karne me tune phd kia hua hai :D Tujhe irritate karke jo mast wali feeling aati hai na, kya bataun and the way u react is just awesome .. aur haan saadi jaldi kar bhai tu, u desperately need one :P ..

He never says no to anything,be it a plan for a trip,going to mallu mess.I admire his carefree attitude.Good to have a friend like him.. Wish him all the best for his future...:-)...ALI MONISH P E “Naayinte mone” is one phrase which I will always associate with sasi !

Chhotu....seriously, Atishay could pass off as an IPM student any day. Apart from being wingies, we hit it off during the 4th and 5th terms when we were like we don’t give a damn about subjects we didn’t get a hang of. We have a lot of things in common in respect of our attitude towards life - keeping things simple and taking them as they come. One of the brightest guys on campus (another commonality :P)....Have a great life, bro and stay in touch :)...RUDRASHIS ROY Mr. Chhotu....my first friend on campus, he is a really easy going and chilled out guy. Somehow turned from a marketing to a fin guy quite suddenly proving his versatility. He is good at bakchodi and is also great company for drinks. He thinks he is good at TT but to be brutally honest, he is not. Theek thaak dance kar leta hain aur patte khel leta hai. Saala bahut bada ghissu bhi hai. We have always been good friends right from the first day on campus and have cherished memories of our bakchodi during RIP, mandu trip and during our summer intern. Ab Crisil mein jake machayega but hope he does get to fulfil his entrepreneurial ambitions. Best of luck bhai!...MRIGANK GUTGUTIA Agree with Rudrashis that you can pass out as an IPMer. A chilled out guy, other than placements of course, usme toh sabki hawa tight ho gai thi, specially summers. But on both occasions, hard-work got you the good positions you deserved. Very friendly, a good TT player (not as good as Chutputia, but not as boastful too..:D) and always sport for Bakch$%i. I’m gonna miss you Bro, as one of the wingies I really spent quite some time with and really gelled well. May you achieve all your goals in life and always be your friendly, helpful self. God bless.:)...Vishal Vyas Hi Atishay, Great to have had the opportunity to work with you for Entrepid. Soft-spoken, humble and a very hard-working guy. The kind of person who would quietly do his work and yet keep tabs on his team’s progress and always be ready to help. With your tenacity and work-ethic , I am sure you would do brilliantly well in life. A fin enthusiast who’s bagged a great offer.Wish you all the best in life. Best Wishes, Sabornee ...SABORNEE JANA Atishay was one of the lucky (you know why) front benchers.. Popularly known as Chotu among the wingmates... you are a very logical, straight forward and hard working person i have met.. you maintain a low profile in class... but you are one of the guys who brings life to our hostel wing.. Fin enthusiast who knows a lot and will definitely do well in future.. best of luck and keep in touch :)...Parth Kosada The first guy I met after coming here....made me believe its gonna be worth coming here :) Chilled n composed at the same time...didn’t spend much time together but enough to never forget you :) Hv a great life ahead yaar...hope u shall miss me too :P...ABHISHEK UPADHYAY

Avinash has been one of my best friend from PGP2. We have always had a great time sharing about various aspects of B-school life. I am sure he will do great things in his career and otherwise too. I wish him all the very best. Thanks Avinash for all the help :)... SUDHIR KUMAR SINGH

Avinash is one of the most interesting people on campus, in more ways than one. Should have known you a lot earlier than towards middle of second year. We seem to have a lot of common interests, books and movies being two of them. I’ve mostly heard that you’re a very quiet guy who usually keeps to himself. And you’re probably is a very genuine and friendly guy too :P...KIRAN RADHAKRISHNAN Avinash was someone I felt I had several common interests but never got much of an opportunity to hangout with. I still thoroughly enjoyed the long conversations we used to have whenever we used to meet. I sincerely do hope that we stay in touch after our campus life :)...Deepak Talluri One hell of a guy. Always used to see you when I visited Yevalkar’s room, always on your laptop, doing something or studying. So I used to think you are a very reserved guy. But after you joined Management Canvas, our friendship grew and I got to know you better. You are smart, talented, and into so many things, be it books, movies, music or games. Discussions with you, about anything, have been a pleasure always. Hope to connect with you more in whatever time that is left. Keep in touch....SHAUNAK VISHWAKARMA Avinash, the J-Block johny & person sitting behind me during lectures :), one of the most serious/focussed guy I have ever seen :-). Had fun during lectures, especially during 1st year (remember someone sitting besides you & making CP’s after CP’s :p and interupting our sleep :p). You were the person I would go to when I would be in some trouble & you would patiently answer all of them :-).Glad to have a friend like you, Wishing you all the very best for future :-) and hope that our paths may cross again in the future!...PANKAJ DHINGRA As I always say there are 3 Avinashs in our campus.. Avinash A,B and C... C being the most efficient of all...I walk around the campus and a voice makes a comment.I turn back to see C with a smile and the trademark haircut and eye-glasses... there are many guys who inspire me from our campus and you are one among them... I wish you a great career and a happy life ahead... Cheers..!...AMBATI AVINASH

Heyâ?¦ It was great interacting with you at HOP! Wish you the best in life....SHREYA TANDON Arrogant, Studious, Only looks for himself were few misconceptions I had about you prior to actually knowing you well. Got to interact with you for the first time after summer placements and realized how wrong I was. You in fact turned out to be a great friend and a gym partner. We really did some hard work together not only in assignments but getting into shape as well. Keep up the hard work and discipline which is so well integrated in you and keep motivating people as you did for me several times. A wonderful career awaits you and don’t forget me dude. ( Don’t forget me bhai :) )...SHADAB ALI SIDDIQUI We had a great time at HOP, especially when me you and Berry sat and wrote down the skit about Professor Siddiqui ! The amount we laughed just writing the skit in the first place and the great bakar sessions during the cold nights at Nainital I shall not forget. Best of luck for your future endeavors. ...KARTHIK SWAMINATHAN Having met you during the IIM Interviews you are one of the very 1st guys I knew here. We haven’t interacted a lot here but you will always be a good friend. I hope you have a great future bro :). Keep working hard the way you do. Stay in touch,...Ishan Rishabh Kansal In our first year, I did not interact with you much but I knew that you are someone who loves to spend days and nights in library. Later on while doing some group assignments, I came to know about your other interests and talent. Your knowledge about social and political issues is much higher than a normal MBA guy. And I will never forget the way you read that script (urdu for Pak diro) in HOP. Wish you all the best for your future and I hope to see you becoming someone influential in administrative services....GAURAV BERRY You were one of my few neighbors who understood the pain I had with my seating position in first year, asking me to sit in Ravikanth’s seat when he was absent (which was very rare :P) We have had a lot of interesting discussions apart from cracking jokes, imitating profs and students alike :D We will definitely stay in touch ...Avinash Chidambar 1990 ! Wrong DOB. Although I remembered your Birthday both the years, I am quite sure that it can’t be 1990 :P My first proper memories with you goes back to the RIP days..here was a person who didnt drink at all and loved watching us go mad on the floor after a few pegs down.....

Lasting impressions about college :

Here comes the bhukhad of our group or even better .. Thanks to Deepti, I have become good friends with you. I especially remember the time of our summer placements with all the movies, games and the food. You always remind me of the time when we were trying to script a scary movie during RIP and the poker and gagnam dance times during HOP. Itâ??s never boring when you are around as we always have some lame topic to talk about in a rather interesting manner, which induces sleep to Deeps. At the same time, itâ??s so annoying when I am unable to figure out whether you are telling the truth or just bluffing and finally give up even listening to you. Now I think of them, it always brings a smile upon me. Though â??Mommyâ?? is the eldest in our group, you were always the Big boss we can always look up to being all sensible and responsible. Itâ??s always a good feeling for us that we can always rely on you (though you are the sleeping beauty of our group, haha). You are quite sincere in your work, always focussed and who would not take anything less than what you have aimed for. I am glad that you are one such friend whose company, I always enjoy and you are one ideal person who is always suitable as one of my partners in crime. Good luck for all your future dreams and hope there comes a time where daily meal includes nothing less than a Chicken Biryani ï??...ANUSHA BEESETTI Pyaare beta....baaki bachchon ki wajah se to main campus me mummy ke naam se famous hu but tune to mujhe national level ka fame dilaya hai...be it Easyday or kingdom of dreams, u’ll always call me mommy n ppl start looking and wandering :P....I really had best time going out with u cause pta hi nhi chalta tha ki mere saath koi banda hai due to interest u take in my shopping :P....m a foodie and u too n this was d main reason v matched perfectly as a company :)....ppl say I hv good sense of humor but its not possible without targets like u an Aakash :)....Its always been and will be fun talking to u cause u gel easily with anyone :)....thanks for introducing me to gaming pad and 1000 technical stuff...

The BIG MAN, as I always call him. BIG is not only his size, but BIG eating habits (no1 can come close to him in eating chicken), BIG lifestyle and more importantly, BIG heart (which not many people have, take jokes so sportingly). A very soothing personality, which I am sure would lead to BIG and wonderful things in life and career ahead....ARPIT TANDON Open and frank. Not even a day passes by with out chicken for Nirun :P...It’s good knowing you!...SAI PRASANNA KUMAR LAVU Nirun !!! The Man who never compromises in lifestyle. Lover of Non-veg. Big heart and soothing personality. We always like the combination of you and Arpit at dinner time :). I will cherish all the fun moments with You, Harish and Goutham. Hope to see you developing some app which would get great fortune to you. Have a great life dude. Keep in touch :)...SURESH MALLULA Our Big B...The most laziest person in the college :D I respect your daring attitude. Well thanks for being with us...Will always remember your love for chicken...Chickens must put a board “Beware of Nirun” to safeguard themselves (Kidding) :) Have a prosperous life :)... POTTI RAJESH He always carries 10 kg of gold ornaments on his body..I call him the moving jewelry shop :P :P..In his life I estimate at least a lakh or 2 chicken to die and rest in his stomach :P.. Best googler on campus, any quiz competition no one can match his speed in googling the answers..thanks 2 him I hav a couple of points on my resume..I wish him all the happiness in his life :) :)...VENKAT DUBASH. L Mr Bright. There are just 2 rules that you should follow with this guy 1. Never enter his room 2. Never take his chicken On the first day of college, when I was standing in the line for collecting room keys, this fellow was standing in front of me. I was a bit scared looking at this BIG man. (Even during HOP, he scared most of the delhites). He always likes to be alone and used to skip classes so that he can have his lunch alone. A very stubborn fellow and acts like a child some times. He lives like an emperor, roams in an AC cab for short distance and flight for long distance, stays in 5 star hotel, and of course eats chicken daily. If it wasn’t for him, hen population would have been double that of its current population. A facebook stalker and is good in recognizing almost all the girls in the campus. Its so fun to tease him and together we used to make a lot of fun of harish. During these 2 years we had a lot of fun during dinner and in our usual chit chats and some heated debates too. I will remember all these moments and see you in your marriage....K GOUTHAM

Hey Bapat..oops Abhishek..! Hello Excel-Man, I know you will excel in your life with lots of successes. I always cherish our post assignment tea breaks in our 3rd term. It was pleasure working with you. You are one of those persons who inspires me. I hope you have a great future ahead and keep on inspiring. Cheers..!...AMBATI AVINASH Bapats â?? the â??EXCELâ?? man of Planet-I. I met you first at Section â??E...ummm not really... who will forget your frog face moment captured during our bakra days...:P. Okk... Abhishek you have been a very good friend of mine since we met. I remember all the moments we spent together right from group assignments to that RIP trip. You are a cool and always approachable person. I would cherish all the moments we spent together at IIM. Keep in touch !!!...ANIKET YEVALKAR Its difficult to write a testimonial for someone like Bapat :D as from the outside he portrays this image that he is just a highly efficient, ‘ruthless nerd’ :D and someone who doesnt really bother much about either the college or the people in it :p, but underneath he is someone who is emotional, cares a lot about people around him, and most importantly is a very great friend to have. I have really have to thank Eshwar for introducing me to wonderful people like Bapat. I wish I had known him much earlier in IIM Indore, but I am very sure we will stay in constant touch from now on....Deepak Talluri Bapat â?? very friendly and really intelligent. The depth of your knowledge is something I envy. I still remember you steamrolling the juniors during the presentations in Bakra 2013. There is rarely a boring moment when you are around. Randomly explaining to us a concept that you read about (Behavioural Finance these days) and the constant cribbing (which is just a formality. You end up spending a lot anyways!) are just some of your highlights. Your endeavour to always get your moneyâ??s worth is inspiring, especially for me :P. Stay the way you are, and you will be an excellent consultant (partner in 10-15 years?? :D). But before you embark on this journey, remember this â?? You still owe me Rs. 5/-!! ...SANE NACHIKET SHRIHARI There are some people you instantly become friends with and some you take time becoming friends with! With Bapat, it was the latter. Despite me taking time to become friends with you, I am so glad I did. You’ve been an amazing friend, one of my closest friends on campus (Inspite of you thinking me of as a aquaintance :P), someone who has been more than willing to help me when i sorely needed it. The Ashwamedha video is the best example :P His uniqueness as a friend lies in the fact that he just understands you so well, that he offers help or advice before you even seek it. Thanks for all the help buddy! Bapat is also the most emotional person amonsgt our group, despite the ‘I am not the emotional guy’ kind of face he puts up! Apart from the apparent Excel skills everyone know of, from what I’ve seen, Bapat also pocesses decent skills in dancing and singing :D (He and Apal put the stage on fire during the Section Party!) All the very best for the life ahead and I pray to god u get to live in Mumbai all your life and that he provides you with all the chicken you could possibly eat :P... ESHWAR M S

Hey Anusha, I remember the time you single-handedly modified the B2B assignment even though you had a CRM quiz the next day. And I really think that we got an A+ because of you. You truly embody team spirit. You are hard working, and yet you have no ego issues. So full of energy, you have to be *stopped* from exercising :D (that agility training session when you’d not stop skipping :P). The girl who loves to attend classes for the thirst of knowledge, so what if she’s not enrolled in them :P. I think you are under-hyped. Wish you the best....SHREYA TANDON

I could say so many things.... a list of qualities and attributes to identify you but we both know that it would be sufficient now, would it.... coz you have the one quality that rules them all ;) that - YOU ARE ANUSHA I have known you mostly through our association through Toastmasters, but how I wish, I’d known you earlier and interacted more with you beyond toastmasters, for I’ve thoroughly enjoyed every single time we sat together discussing how to pull off the next TM session, shared a laugh over something crazy that either of us did at those sessions....well actually any form of conversation that I had with you. You’re incredibly attracted to and dedicated towards whatever work you do, there is no formality or mere completion based goal for you, everything that you do, you do for the love of it, and that is what mesmerizes and inspires those around you. It’s been a pleasure to know you and I wish you many more years of mesmerizing people that you meet on your way ahead. I was glad to be just one of your victims ;) ...DEBOPRIO DUTTA You are one person whom i knew even before i joined here. I am glad to have met you.

Cheers..!...AMBATI AVINASH Anusha is the SHELDON COOPER of our group. You are very very very very and I cant stress this enough very knowledgable esp in movies :P. I was never able to beat ya at hollywood. Very hardworking and meticulous. Has a very professional approach when it comes to teamwork. I loved having intriguing yet dumb :) discussions with you. We used to discuss which movie to watch for more than 1 hour and not come to any decision. Poor fellows deepu and mommy had to eat without entertainment. When you enter any room people wihtout seeing can easily tell that its you :P . Restless, always want to do something. You stood up when friends needed you and took great care of them. This is the greatest quality that I like in you. Sometimes(its an euphemism it should be more than some) you seem confused yet put on a great show. Intelligent yet easily gullible (you can never beat me in poker :P ), you are a very dear friend to me. ...B AVINASH GUPTA

You have been my closest friend in this campus . I thank you for all the support and help that you have rendered me during this 2 years . Nice to have known you :)...DEBJANI DEY The first time i met you was through debjani. Seeing the way you were absolutely disinterested inspite of our collective enthusiasm (mine and behl’s back then) i thought you must be a stubborn little girl. The one time that we really hit it off was when all of us ended up at alcove’s (another one of thakur’s stints) Our funny, stupid and weird conversations would always remain in my memories. It is surprising how the four of us ended talking random stuff for hours together. I shall preserve the memories in my heart forever. Thanks for always being there for me. I wish there were words to express my gratitude for remaining the best of the friends at all times. All the very best for everything in life :)...KEERTHI KOCHERLAKOTA The one to whom I wud give the majority of the credit for the wonderful rapport that C section shares.. Always at the forefront of all activities â?? starting from T-nite in 1st term to the section party in 6th term u have taken up all responsibilities to ensure our section bonding strengthened.. had great fun choreographing for puppet dance ;) hilarious and a headache to teach every1 but mre importantly assemble evry1 at j block common room.. a regular at all dj parties (even when u werenâ??t a part of Culcom;) ), a hard-working Culcom member, a storehouse of innovative ideas, a pocket-sized dynamite ;) and the list is endless if I need to cite eg.s of ur special traits.. u played a major part in the success of all section parties, mandu trip, the culcom activities, the section wars.. as a person u r quite considerate, understanding, funâ??loving, bubbly and ever-ready to be of ne help to ne1 n every1.. Was great knowing u and hope u stay the same in future :).. all the best :) ...KRIT DOSHI OMG how can someone be as composed and charming as you are!!! Its always so much fun talking to you... and on the other hand always at the vanguard of organizing parties....no doubt you ended up at Culcom.... knows how to have fun...have a great life ahead girl...will definitely be in touch... :)...ABHISHEK UPADHYAY Pratiksha always has that smile on her face whenever you greet her. She is always this calm and composed girl, someone you can easily easily have a conversation with. I remember the Udaipur trip we had, our CIIPP class where we used to discuss random things :D Appreciate your enthusiasm for all our Section activities. I wish you good luck for your professional and personal life :) ...Deepak Talluri Pratiksha, You are one of the nicest girls I got to know on campus. Your enthusiasm even when working on academic assignments is admirable (Rare case :) ). I always considered you the “Go to Girl” when planning any event for the section because you never said no and you were someone who volunteered to take up any tough negotiations. All the best. Stay in touch.!...SUMANTH J

Lasting impressions about college :

Hey Bharath, You are the coolest secy Mercur-i can ever have ! I always admire the way you listen to other’s problem and always keep your cool. You have motivated me at times when I needed the most. Working with you was a great experience for me. Hopefully, we can take Mercur-i to greater heights next year. Thanks for being an awesome senior and motivating me ! Two thumbs up to you (y) (y) Courtesy:fb dp ...AKHIL KRISHNAN SHOBA Bharathhh! I dont think college wouldve been the same without you! Right from before I even joined, your advice and gyan have been ever so prized. Such a fun person, first term was glorious thanks to you and Shif, taking us irrelevant juniors to the awesomest food places around campus and right from classes to drinking places, your help has been invaluable. And the music, oh the brilliant music that I have grown to like so much all throughout these three terms, you’re by far the awesomest mallu (barring Shifaz) that I’ve met. Always be this chill, kay? :D ...MEHAK SAHNEY I got to know Bharath as the other guy in Deloitte SAP who got into IIM Indore.. I hadn’t interacted with him much before that.. Last few days at Deloitte we got to know each other better.. you are a fun-loving person.. never takes tension about anything.. i think i can safely say that you would be the person who has passed MBA by attending the least no of classes :P.. an avid Marketing Enthusiast.. Secy of Mercur-I.. can strike a conversation with anyone very easily.. one of the best Football player on the campus.. keep up the attitude buddy and best of luck.. Cheers!!...Parth Kosada Bharat!!!A.k.a Sec-xyyyy .... It couldnt have been a better start if you wernt my bakra group mate..... the moment we interacted i knew that you were one chilled out guy more than I am.... you had one aspiration getting into mercuri and you have not only done it but become the secy...... I still remember the dialogue during our Bakra “ This is all Shit Man “..... The way you said it made me laugh that instant.... apart from that you are an amazing footballer and your love for the sport is amazing...... wish you all the success in life.... Cheers Buddy!!!...GALI STEPHEN STANLEY The hottie and cutie who came for the most random NIT Trichy fest and probably the only reason why I got out of my room to see that fest (read: to check out the new eye candy on campus).. Ofcourse i was excited to go to the same college as you.. Easy to talk to and never once judged me for the crazy things I told him.. this pretty face has a lot to offer than what I thought :) but turns out we had very different “interests” in life.. so didn’t really hang out much.. nevertheless I enjoyed the few times we spent together and hoping there will be many more such random episodes in the future :)Till then..Keep calm and stay high (on life ;)) p.s: I am not going to say the same old you are smart and you were born to be a marketer and all :P i assume all that is obvious from your profile :P...ANJEL JOSEPH

Bhoomi or Booms as I call her, is one of my best friends on campus. Sheâ??s one person who I think knows me the most, all my dark secrets included. Sheâ??s someone who I can always rely on and can trouble her whenever Iâ??m happy or sad. Sheâ??s an amazing person, full of fun and joy and never misses even one single chance to pull my leg. I think that just boosts her morale to altogether different level and keeps her going. But I can say for sure that sheâ??s one person who is very genuine, honest and straight-forward, a rare combination of qualities that are very difficult to find and something I very much like in her. She just speaks her mind freely without feeling the need to be politically correct. Maybe thatâ??s why I respect her and love to hang around with her. Booms, I admire the patience you have shown in listening to my crap and supporting me whenever I required it the most. I always manage to tick you off by cracking some stupid joke but youâ??ve been magnanimous enough to let it go. Not many people know that you are actually a deep thinker and possess mesmerizing thoughts on love, life, friendship and humanity. :P. Iâ??m sure youâ??ll rock at Reliance (Gujju folks afterall) and achieve whatever you aim for. Keep smiling! ...SIDDHARTH SINGHAL Bhoomi is one of my closest friends ever and not just on campus. There are very very few people out there who could claim to know me better than her. Sometimes she manages to get more out of me than I would like to :) But in the end I am glad I had her as my best friend here and my life would have been very different from what it is now if I had not met her. She is one of the strongest person I have ever known and she is very sincere and hardworking though it may not appear up front :P But this is exactly what I like about her, she can manage to have all the fun in the world with the entire campus, gossip around to her heart’s content and be a part of all the little groups and still manage to earn everybody’s trust and more importantly stick to the more meaningful things in life. I have never seen a person more universally loved and cared for and no one would disagree with me if I say she has the most fan following here on campus. :) I was one of the lucky few who got to spend the most time with her on campus and on exchange and I am really glad to be among them. She is very caring, understanding and one of those people who will stand next to you without expecting anything in return from you. There have been times when I have been very difficult but I can’t imagine anybody to be so nice even in those times. I can’t put it down in words how much I will miss her when I leave this place. I wish her all the happiness in life and may all she wishes for herself come true. I can never be more happy for anyone else than I would be for her success and happiness in life. :)...SURABATHUNI PALLAV

Recent quotes include “I have the power of 20 girls!” Hidden talents are DJ dancing, frugal planning....VAMSI KRISHNA BETHAPUDY The pessimist, the idea destroyer, bitchmay people have called him many names. And yeah how can I forget his famous bed sheet. But Bismayy is a person whom you can rely on and is always ready to take up responsibilities when the team is in need of it the most. And when you have only few hours to finish an assignment, he is capable of getting the assignment done on time. Don’t estimate Bismayy’s strength by his height, he is a strong and versatile footballer and is always enthusiastic to play the game. ATB for your future....

There is something quite obvious about geniuses that makes you look up to them in awe and admiration. The exact phenomenon takes place every time Mr. Chaitanya shares his wisdom in class. The first time I interacted with you was when you mailed me the preadmission material when I converted IIMI...I remember going through your profile then and being ‘Whoa!!’..’Kitnaa aata hai isko!’. 2 years down the line and it is still my reaction! On one hand you are this gyaan ka toofan and on the other hand you are an encyclopedia when it comes to the ‘pop-culture’ references you mentioned! :D So that’s a pretty awesome combo there. Cheers to the 2 years spent here and hope you go places in life!!!

You literally had only one chance and you’ve made it count. You’ve always made some of the most relevant CPs in class which has made everyone look up to you. We’ve been together on several Group Assignments and I still remember the amount of hard work you put in our SM-II Presentations; you single-handedly impressed the Professor. We’ve had lot of fun together as well, be it the many night outs or RIP or section parties. But, I will always remember you with the song- ‘Jiya, Jiya re, Jiya re!’ :P Always be this fun guy; don’t become a boring banker. Cheers!...TANMAY LALIT TAPASE Investment banker, great communicator, well read quizzer, intelligent CP maker, hardcore football fan, and overall a genius!

“Quiet People have the loudest minds.” Stephen Hawking was definitely pointing at you when he said this. Keep up with whatever you’re doing, and you’ll go a long way in life. All the best!...KIRAN RADHAKRISHNAN Chandan held the most important and the toughest responsibility on campus, and I feel he did justice to it at the best of his potential. The nature of his POR didn’t allow him to enjoy on the campus like other guys. I haven’t had the opportunity to interact with him much, and it would be the same with all but 13 people in the batch. Yet his charisma, personality, communication skills, confidence and down-to-earth nature stand out loud. Wish you all the very best for your life....VAIBHAV JAIN A true gentleman...!! I got help from you whenever I needed. You were gentle and calm whenever I talked to you, and helped me out in so many issues I faced in initial days in my internship inTata Steel.. Wish you luck and great success in Life...!!...SHAUNAK VISHWAKARMA Chandan is one of the most diligent and committed people I’ve come across, given the complex and demanding nature of his responsibility on campus. I’ve been lucky to have worked with him over the past year, and I’ve learnt a lot through the interactions. Cheers man to a great future!...Raoul Lopes Chandan!!! it was a pleasure knowing you..... A perfect role model for the future batches I could say..... you are an extremely talented individual with an amazing skill set... the calmness and the composure that you exhibit are unmatchable..... Respect Buddy!!!! Cheers man!!...GALI STEPHEN STANLEY Chandan Nikhil Kulkarni- I remember you saying that we won’t write testimonials and all, but we’ll stay in touch! I never really interacted with you in the first year, but you were always someone whom I admired and respected. Well, as it turns out the batch also thought the same as you ended up having the highest ever vote count. While working with you over the past one year in the committee, I’ve learnt a lot more about and the many qualities you possess. You are a perfectionist, your need for Perfection has driven me mad several times, but slowly I’ve tried to learn from it. You are one of the most hardworking persons I know and that combined with your intelligence and excellent communication style makes you an ideal choice for a leader in any organization. The way that you talked and the logical nature of arguments was always something which I tried to learn. You are incredibly practical and your knowledge on topics as varied as HBS articles to Indias history is truly astounding. I hope you loosen out a bit in the future and just let it go sometimes. Keep in touch. Have a great life! Cheers!...TANMAY LALIT TAPASE

Chinmay....Stud....One person I would have really liked to emulate for his all-round skills excellent batch rank, plays almost every sport well (though I sometimes give him a run for his money in a couple of them), party animal with good dance moves (I beat him handsdown here though :P). Him, Arup and me really hit it off during the first few days here and I was lucky to be a part of this elite group in the 1st year - late night cricket discussions, T.T. clashes, failure in several competitions :P. He is one of the most sincere, level-headed yet fun-loving and easygoing guys I have come across. One of the very few guys on campus who could have landed up a top-notch job in two different domains....Wish you all the success in life, mate and stay in touch :)...RUDRASHIS ROY Chinnuuuuuu :D:D:D What would I have done without you :D:D Jokes apart thanks for discovering me :) All those weekends in Gurgaon, you gave me something to look forward to.. And finally thanks to you I got a college life :D:D Cant thank you enough for all the memories of college which mostly involves you.. but then again there is a whole life time ahead of us for that.. DO NOT EVEN THINK OF FORGETTING ME! Stay the same :) you are awesome the way you are.. one of the most hard working people I have met on campus.. and at the same time a lot of fun :) Lets hope this was just the beginning of long fun years of friendship for us :) P.S: You wrote nick name as chinnu :D:D:D i edited a little :P... ANJEL JOSEPH Chinnnnnuâ?¦..Hats off to this guy. He is bond in every field whether it is in acades (among top rankers in batch), in sports (bady, tennis, TT, football, cricket, computer games-AOE, FIFA). We have been friends since bakara time, in fact more than friends we are now. He is one of the most intelligent, cheerful and easy-going persons which I have come across. Very cooperative and friendly in nature and always eager to help people. I have no words to define his intelligence (ladka phodu hai and sab jagah machata hai). We had wonderful time in last two years here (Maggie in kaushu room, pune trip with kaushu and karn, HOP and a list of never-ending moments). He lives with the myth that he plays cards better than me :P .Very fond of dance and never leaves the dj floor until the last song plays. I enjoyed all the dj party here with this party guy. One of the best things happens to me after coming IIM Indore is to have a friend like you who always gets ready to assist me at any point of time. You know you are damn intelligent and deserve everything in your life. Wishing you a successful life ahead :) :)...AKSHAY MANGAL eone it would be Chinmay a.k.a Chinu....I am really amazed by his all round skills and how he manages and excel in each and every one of them. He is a great party animal with great dance moves. Somehow we have danced together in all the DJ parties here in campus. And one should not confuse him with his batch rank...he is a bakchod to the core....with some aberrant CPs in class he would make the dull classes interesting. A great friend to have....Best of luck for your future...be in touch :)...ABHIKET GAURAV

Chitresh..! The coolest guy I have ever seen..There are very few people as polite as you.. You are so helpful and supporting...And a great photographer too...Right from the first assignment group the interactions we had were cherish-able...I know you will have a great career ahead...Enjoy your life to fullest...Keep your attitude and you are going to earn lot more friends....Cheers..! ...AMBATI AVINASH You were the first guy I met when I came to Planet-I and boy was I shocked...a vegetarian Sardar who doesn’t drink?!!! Now that was definitely a shocker to me as I had always imagined Sardars holding a chicken leg-piece in one hand and a bottle of beer in the other. Later I found out that the drinking thing was just a temporary hiatus :P But on a serious note, you’re a really good guy, someone whom I could count on, be it our useless attempts at competitions or an impromptu trip to PD...it was all awesome man...really gonna cherish those moments :) :) All the best for life and your career ahead and Have fun! :)... JAYANT ANKUR KUJUR Chitresh Singh.....the hatke Sardaar Johnny. Still remember the day when I went out of control in my section party and you were helping me out with everything not only that day, but also the day after. When I was feeling a bit ashamed how you chilled me out by narrating your office party escapades. Although we didn’t interact frequently before, I discovered a great friend that day. It is rightly said that friends are those persons who help you willingly at your hour of need. We may not have shared the same dorm in second year, but our level of interaction was high - courtesy the several common electives that we had. A really down-to-earth and not-a-party-animal sardaar, here’s wishing you a successful life and hope we stay in touch :)...MAINAK BHOWMIK One of the most sweet spoken Sardar I have met. Very nice, and a great company. I still remember the day we went to musci room along with yevalkar, and played loud music for such a long time. Singing “Sutta” song together was really fun. You are really talented, and I wish you great luck and success in life. Bhai ek aur arz hai, aaj tak punjabi wedding nahi dekhi...Apni shadi me bulaiyo zarur, wrna main zabardasti pahuch jaunga... :P All the best for life...Keep in touch...SHAUNAK VISHWAKARMA The photographer of the group, always calm and collected. Has a relaxed air around everything he does. Never seem him agitated. Bonded really well with you in 2nd year over the numerous lunches and dinners we had together, and the Chadha prompted visits to Pi-shop. Your attitude is your strongest point and it would take you places for sure. All the very best for your future :)...KARANDEV SINGH KAMRA

I have known Debayan as a very cheerful and hard working person, the one who kept alive RIP with “Bhaishab” and HOP with ‘therebia’ ( dunno how thats spelled). And I have no words to describe the chemistry between him and sanjiban. One moment they would be laughing..the next they would literally start fighting...you guys just rock together :P :P. Apart from these trips, I also had the pleasure of working with him on MR/AMR assignments and I really salute his dedication for the same. Debayan jaise “bade logo” ke bina toh wo assignments possible hi nahi they. All the very best for your future :) Bade toh aap ho hi ..aur bhi bade bano !!!...SHOBHNA SHRUTI I am sure this space would be quickly filled by his ardent female fans, so I would make it short and quick....I thought I had a grasp of assortment of J.U. lingo but he has helped me 2 or 3 here in my repertoire after coming here....very sincere guy with an insane ability to sleep and then the next moment, come up with a C.P....that’s how I would sum, sorry TOTAL up Debayan....See you at RBS :)...RUDRASHIS ROY The sleeping beauty of Section C......I have so many vivid recollections of catching you asleep in midst of a lecture. An ardent illusionist, you are so adept at your craft that its hard to tell whether you are actually awake or asleep. We have had a lot of fun in our first year along with Manoj Sir, Nivisha and Mahajan during the classes. Another instance that I can recall is of me being caught between a constant stream of CP (read DCP) by you and Sanjiban Da. Like a true bong, you are a hardcore foodie. You are an amazing person and a more amazing friend. All the very best for your future :D...ANAND MALHOTRA Bhaisahabbbbâ?¦ab inke baare mn kya bole..chilled out guy (as far as it is nt related to studies) :P a hard working & sincere person n always ready to help u..his love fr non-veg cannot be explained in words.. :D also, u jst hv to learn frm him hw to sleep in cls without prof noticing it & stil do CP..haha..v wer together fr both RIP n HOP..n bhai I really enjoyed wid u, especially d â??Bluffâ?? part :D I wish u all d best fr ur future..stay in touch!! :)... ABHISHEK N MAHAJAN Known this bastard for a long time: Same School+College, but IIM creates better friends than ever. Such an entertaining person to be with, until you get fed up of his exquisite vocab. Full of energy and when tired, u will find him sleeping in his chair awkwardly with his mouth open. Speaking about Debayan is incomplete without explaining his mealtime nuances. Spends approximately 3 hours for 4 meals throughout the day. People come, sit with him during meals, go away and a new set of people come by...but Debayan is digesting his food faster than he intakes. This guy is always brimming with energy and confidence and is a proven performer. Be the man u are..we will see more of each other in the times to come.....Rajarshi Biswas

Hey Debjani, It was great being your floor mate. You are driven and ambitious and I admire your work ethic. You are also helpful and a good listener. I guess the good part about graduating is that you will not have struggle with the IT department for internet anymore! you will definitely go a long way in life!...SHREYA TANDON The journey of friendship with Debjani has been right from the time we met at that cafe in Dadar before coming to IIM Indore. Though we were not in the same section in the 1st year, we always found out time to catch up with each other during the meals and the chitchat session was indeed fun. It has been great knowing you. All the very best!!...BHANTI PRATIKSHA DEEPAK I could not have asked for a better neighbor for 2 years at IIM Indore! A very genuine person at heart who is very kind-hearted and sweet. Whenever I needed help, you were always there at any time of the day. always stay the grounded, humble and sweet person that you are. Wishes for a wonderful life ahead! ...SONAKSHI BEHL Got to interact with you only on a few occasions but really liked your point of view on the matters discussed. All the best for the future!! :)...SWARNENDU SEN An amazing girl, she is one of the most approachable and sweetest girls on campus. You are so very patient, kind and understanding.

Hi Deboprio, You will be a little surprised to see this testi coz you never sent an invite, not unexpected of you though and also the first uninvited testi I am penning down. You are one very very quiet person, probably the one for whom the phrase pin-drop-silence was invented. :) I thank you for the support and hard work you put in our Live project , especially on the last deliverable when we were running very tight deadlines and unplaced mortals like me needed a completed project on our CVs. The part that you sent eased a lot of my work. Apart from that, as a person too you have been extremely inspiring and that’s why I am writing this testi.One of the most difficult things to pull off in life is to stay true to one’s nature and be the person he/she is. Where everyone is busy smiling fake smiles,manipulating one another to meet their selfish ends,by choosing to be the exception you stand tall. You are humorous too in a very quirky way.I remember you saying ‘ jei nerve ta stress/ tension er karon sei nerve ta amar bodhoy kaj kore na’; Lolz. Wish you loads of success in life. Best Wishes, Sabornee ...SABORNEE JANA Before I start writing, a warning!....Don’t blame me if this goes viral :P Here it goes. Our interactions were very limited till both of us cracked an offer from PwC for summer internship. Off to Mumbai and Apr ‘13 - May ‘13 had been the best period of my life. We stayed together in the same hotel room for a month (I can’t dream of having an affair with anyone apart from you for this long a time :P), went for eat-outs...remember the jokes we cracked on the two hippie-girls sitting next to us at Bombay Blues :P Then there was the Bombay Talkies show where almost the entire audience burst out laughing when I cracked a joke on Kats :P Good to know that you remember our desparate attempts at Nisha, only to know later on that she was committed. You had often asked me why I used to go to office at 7:30 AM in the morning....now I guess you have become cognizant of the reason :P Then remember the long videos we used to watch on youtube ;) at night; along with old monk and Fosters. Well it was one hell of a ride, with the best entertainment being provided by Shib, the showstopper, during lunch :P. You stunned us all with your oratory skills during HOP, something which the entire Nainital group will agree. Now that both of us are likely to hit Mumbai again, we hope to continue from where we left off. MainakDeboprio v2.0....Releasing this May...MAINAK BHOWMIK Debo remains one of my closest friends. He is a very chilled out dude. ...Kicks ass at Counter Strike... n loves cold-drinks than anything else in life. Cant forget those memories of the daaru theka, where he revealed many of his secrets (even about his ex’s) . All the Best for all your future endeavors. Keep in touch....KISHLAI KUMAR

This Guy, though he may seemed to look like someone coming from sub-saharan, but he’s not. He is a helpful, cheerful and inspiring person who happens to be my friend. Throughout the years that I’ve known him, he has been very kind and considerate to every difficulties his friends has. He inflate his neck pillow, pack his medium level soduku when he has to help his friends. :D I wish Debraj to have a healthy, peaceful and long cheerful life. #Vlrs Ralte...VANLALROSIAMA RALTE Debraj Das, a friend of friends, is easy to understand but difficult to put in words. Let me try out here... He is smart & talented (God pardon me). He is an IIT-ian but struggles with Microsoft Office. Yes he does. A fitness freak, do-it-perfect & dedicated (ghissu) person. He is punctual for classes and misses only 2 days in a term but elsewhere 5 minutes for him literally means 20 minutes (minimum). I am glad that he taught me several things that i never knew.. (IPmsg, Ultrasurf, DC, youporn). He has shared some great stuff wid me (Movie trailers, David Gilbert, Papon, Kim Kardashian). But I also shared almost all my stuff with him. He took my deodrant, surf excel, shoes, white shirt, ear buds and sabun ki tikia. He has his name inscribed on my nail-cutter. He appeared on national television and earned 25K but spend it all on protein powder (no treat for me). All my trips to city never happened without him & I have seen all the movies with him only. We had all the food in mess together and he was there with me in every competition (that’s why i won none). We met on the first day at IIM-Indore in the guard room and our friendship has continued since. He is the one who has been with me in all the difficult times. He is not just a friend of mine but my best buddy in campus. We shared such a camaraderie that people use to call us a couple (I sometime doubt him being bi-sexual :P). I wish him all the happiness, success and joy in life and pray to God that our friendship lasts till our last breath. ...MOHD ZEESHAN KHAN Dudey, Bodiii!!! My gym partner at campus. Lazy as hell when it comes to running but crazy about weights. Would surely remember the times we spent coming up with new variations of exercises, and discussions on the trips back to hostel (especially on leg days :D). Wish you the best for your future :). And yes, the race to who gets the six-pack first is still on ;)...KARANDEV SINGH KAMRA Faggot, Homie, Macha, Bros before Hoes.....he , me and Zeeshan were the three musketeers ;) Fitness freak to the core, and I believe he will kill for money that can buy him some protein shake! :D....a very good guy to hang around with.He flaunts his iPhone, but sadly never has money for night mess.Our rio(Zeeshan included) are the literal “memegenerators” of campus, who love to discuss anything and everything.....has an eye for being on time for class, in fact he’s the rare breed who has a good attendance record on campus.Keep up the sirit BITCH.....I love you! :D Wishing you all the best for the future bro! ...VISHNU.V.A

He’s a friend you can count on, except when you want your group assignments done :P. No matter how much he tries to make fun of you, deep down, he’s a caring friend who’ll take more interest in your life, than you yourself will, in a good way of course. He’s usually busy with the endless excel assignments he has burdened himself with. He is in a way an oracle, perhaps the most informed person on campus. However, he uses all the information only to help others, which is really commendable! From the first study group, when we learned about our common admiration for Sherlock Holmes, our friendship only grew. I cannot thank you enough for the immense help you provided me with during placements, and at many other occassions. Wish you all the best in your endeavors. Enjoy life, take risks, and if possible, some decisions too! Don’t worry about age, you are still young at heart :P ...RAJNI RANJAN Clever, Friendly, Grounded. A rare confidant in life. I have seen so many good things in you but one clearly stands out all the while: Brutal honesty. Though I have expressed my displeasure at your opinions many a times I always knew that you had the best intentions for me. I think I have had most of number of discussions on campus with you. I will remember every one of them even if you forget. I might have asked you to change a million times before but believe me as I type this I know you are good as you are. Don’t ever change. Always be the nice guy blushing and doing few dance steps on teasing. Go rock the Finance World. Wall Street beckons!!! :) ...SUMANTH J There is one set of people on campus who claim to do a lot of things but actually do not, another set of people who claim to do a lot and actually do, a third set who claim to do nothing but end up doing a lot and then there is a fourth set of people epitomized by Talluri â?? Doing the best when required and enjoying the most when not. Till the very end of the first year, you were like just a Fin God for me and I thought that you would be extremely serious but the second year really changed things a lot and now I simply enjoy sitting near the grill and talking everything that it is to be talked about. A couple of things, which I have never told you Deepak: I really really respect you for your meticulous nature and your perseverance, but what I am going to remember you for is the amazing friend that you have been. You have helped me a lot with a lot of things, which perhaps you also do not remember. Thanks a lot Eshwar for getting me in touch Deepak. And we have a lot of journey left to travel together in Mumbai! ...RUCHIK KIRTI GANDHI

Dialine, one of the nicest person I’ve ever met. I came to know her since we were in the same assignment group in term1. Time passed by, and our friendship grew stronger. A friend, with whom you can share all your worries and be sure she’ll come up with a solution. A excellent listener and a person to whom you can vent out your frustrations and obviously you can share your joys. Always smiling, I’ve never seen her losing cool. A brilliant presenter and my part time Tamil teacher :). Hope that we stay in touch always. Wish you all the best!!...SENAJIT CHAKI One of the best people in campus to talk to and be friends with. IIC was fun working with you, your signature ‘funny’ smiley will remind us of you for life, though I sincerely hope we’ll stay connected. One of those people who were never worried about placements in the rat-race, because she was always sure of her ability to do well. The confidence was greatly rewarded, is a matter of joy and relief to all of us. Mashal may well be called your second home, coz you have had more meals there than perhaps here on campus. Stay connected. Keep partying, you are creating more jobs than the people you’ll work for..:D May God bless. ATB....Vishal Vyas Dialine! :)..You are calm, sensible, intelligent and confident.. and that smile of yours helped me stay calm when we faced some pressing times as a committee :P..extremely humble and sweet, that i cannot recollect you belting even vyas! :D I no nothing about IT, but still I can confidently say you are extremely knowledgeable in that area and one of the very few people I know who is crystal clear about the type of work/career you want to pursue. I know you will be extremely successful professionally and I wish you luck for all endeavors :) Keep in touch and keep smiling :)...ROHINI H Hi Dilamoâ?¦. I remember the first time you came down to my room for IT com pre-process. You have such a pleasing personality that made it so easy to talk to you. In the first year I saw you as a fellow Chennaiite sitting right in front of me in class and talking to you made me feel closer to my home city. We became good friends when we moved to A block hostel. Since then not a single day has passed when I didnâ??t come down to your room to just talk. I had loads of fun hanging out with you, anusha and prasanthi. All the eat-outs, shopping in streets of indore, playing â??boardâ?? games or just sitting in your room and pulling anushaâ??s leg. I admire the confidence you have and the fact that you never lose your cool. You smile your way through life. I wish you all the best in life. See you in Chennai.. ...K PUNYATHA RANKA Dialine-your sweet and heping nature is admirable! All these times, catching up with you in the wing has been wonderful! Stay the same. Wish you the best of times ahead!...Sneha Tyagi

There you go DK.. My neighbour and the first person whom I talked to on campus.. lemme describe u:- An extremely sweet, innocent, tidy and hardworking guy.. pure at heart, I doubt u have harmed anyone in ur entire life :P.. Though largely risk averse, u have always been perseverant and not shy of trying out any new sports inspite of not having played ever before.. Ultimate memories include- the way u piss off mahajan in the hangover group mainly thru ur random answers and replies ;) Indore traffic Police , rural immersion in Datia, ur love for Gwalior forts , Agra, going into details of everything - even the seat no. of the seats reserved in sports complex;) risk averse - reaching class at least 5 mins before it began, completing assignments way before the deadline, not willing to hop onto a crowded bus.. we did manage to share the same section eventually in the last term, GBM, but never got the opportunity to exploit ur sincere hard work in assgnments n all.. u were always the ever-reliable source of any info. As we knew dat u always doublecheckd the data u got :P U have been an ideal neighbour I cudv ever hoped for but most importantly an amazingly modest frnd.. Thanx for everything :) :) ...KRIT DOSHI DK boy..a kind personality..a bit shy in nature..always kips a low profile..nt padhaku types bt sincere n vry gud at studies..he wil make u wonder wid his random pings n msgs :P little risk averse..always ready to help others..a simple n nice person to knw..DK u r great guy n m sure u wil make it big..my best wishes fr ur future.!! b in touch buddy.. :)...ABHISHEK N MAHAJAN Dipayan Daa....That is what I have always called you...coz your sincerity simply commanded the respect. Great as a person, kind soft spoken, and sweet friend. Always cherished your company. Studious like anything. I wondered how u kept on ding so many things.... guess it was your sheer dedication...Wish you success in life...!!...SHAUNAK VISHWAKARMA The bong next door. Dipayan is a typical soft spoken, helpful, kind-hearted Bengali guy you would get to meet. A sincere and studious person, I am sure he has success lined up for him sooner than later. Amongst other times, the DJ session during the senior batch farewell is perhaps the highlight of our time here. Have fun, and keep in touch :)...ISHAN BOSE

Ah.. the other Doshi!! Lols on the contrary I was the other Doshi cuz u had already made an impact within a week on campus ;) a total livewire, ready to take up challenges, thinking on her feet, brimming with confidence and energy... Practice moved at a good pace only wen u were around :P u wer lyk the school teachr disciplining us;) Zinda toh tumhare karan hi zinda laga warna hum chaaro ne toh maar hi daala tha:P always the star factor of the Vibes performance, u gave it ur all in each n every performance - simply put the SHOWSTOPPER :) As a person, really great person to hang out with.. Another common thing between us apart frm the surname - we both r fond of dj parties n riting long mails :P remember ur farewell mail before the exchange;) m sure u r DeLoitted (read delighted) with ur placement n hop we get to catch up in delhi ;) ...KRIT DOSHI Umm..let’s see. There was all this chatter about this girl in our class (some learned men said that she was a TV star from Boogie Woogie) who looked like a fresher and had amazing dancing skills. My first impression of her was that she wouldn’t interact with us lowly mortals. Well, I have been wrong many times in my life and so I was wrong here as well. Darshita is as humble and down to earth girl one can find, a person who takes mirth in the smaller things of life and thoroughly lives life to the fullest. I love the way she uses the words ‘Paata nahii’ and rolls her eyes innocently :P Watching her dance and dancing with her are always a thing of beauty. Not known to many, she’s quite a nerd but is also fond of sports(quite the package). Certainly a contender for the best dressed girl award, I am sure she has some 4-5 suitcases of footwear stashed somewhere under her bed :P. Had some lovely moments with you and I hope you continue to be the bubbly chirping girl that you are :)...APAL The diva of Planet-I. Darshita is easily one of the most talented people I have ever met. She has won Boogie Woogie, won an art competition at the international level, walks on the ramp with the flamboyance of supermodels, has been the Sports captain in her school throughout; all this and yet manages to sneak in the first job on campus. One can only aspire to excel in so many aspects in a single lifetime, and that is something which is truly inspirational about you. And even though being bestowed with so many virtues, she comes across as a really helpful and friendly person. Really enjoyed the time in 4th term working together on Consumer Behavior, and while I am not sure how much we learnt in Sabitaâ??s classes, getting to be friends with you would certainly be one of the key takeaways of the sessions! :D Have fun and stay blessed :)...ISHAN BOSE From the time I saw you in E section for the first time to your very recent performance in Mridang.. There is one thing that has never changed and that’s your classiness.. If there was any class where I was getting bored, I knew I could turn my head to see you and Half (Palak) munching full-on.. And that would always amuse me.. Till the next time we meet, see you......ADITYA AGARWAL

Lasting impressions about college :

Quintessentially, you know, a PROPER (and Aaron has a way of saying this word, with his hands aligned) guy....sincere, sober, decent, nice, all the positive connotations one can come up with, Aaron is all that and more.....but he is a no-nonsense sotta guy and when he gets flustered, his aggressive side is a stark contrast to his goodie personality. Immense sports talent and plays all kinds of sport at the very top-notch level. Aaron taught me how to pace yourself to get your money’s worth at Sayaji and man, haven’t I got all my penny worth since then! He is the sort of friend you would like to have for the rest of your life because you know he would be there for you when you need him...Wish you all the success in life, mate :) ...RUDRASHIS ROY One of those people whose work speaks louder than words. Laid back, but at the same time dedicated. A very chill guy. Had a lot of fun working with you. Wish you all the best for your future. ...KIRAN RADHAKRISHNAN Aaron Dsouza has one of the got the most contagious smile ever. You just can’t stop smiling back at him. He might give the idea of being a no-nonsense guy (and a pseudo Goan), but that’s just an illusion. He is super fun to hangout with and can do non-stop bakar (Remember our CA submission for which we pulled an all-nighter :P). His decent demeanor makes him one of those guys you can take home to meet your parents :P. All in all, a very helpful guy and a great friend. All the best and stay in touch! (P.S. I will miss your momâ??s brownies :’) ) ...TRISHLA Well I know Aaron more due to Student Exchange program than anything else. Really helpful and patient with all our processes and documents, made sure that we have all the appropriate procedures done well in time and at our convenience. Comes across as a sensible, mature and soft spoken guy who is also one of the best Goalkeepers in our batch! (y) I had a really awesome time on exchange and you guys surely made life easy for all of us. Sincere thanks for that :)...ISHAN BOSE Aaron is one of the most decent and helpful guys you will come across.,....he is always smiling and makes people around him smile as well. Plays every sport pro-level (kamina height ka fayda uthata hai :P , I cant forget your volleys) and is a good friend . We have had some good times together playing tennis, badminton and those Sayaji visits (Arup /\). and RIP. Wish you great success in life and keep in touch :)...CHINMAY NAHAR Great friend, always there to help whenever there’s a need. He has woken me up for several classes and End Terms otherwise we probably wouldn’t be graduating together. Surprisingly though we’ve been great friends, we carried no nonsense impressions of each other till about recently. :P He’s a typical goan in the sense of loving food & drink. We’ve enjoyed several sports discussions - esp tennis and cricket. Cheers Aaron!...Raoul Lopes

Santosh is a guy with a good sense of humor.... can laugh at himself in awkward situations and can find humor in situations that might otherwise be tense... women love this guy because he doesnâ??t take himself too seriously :-p, is quick & witty. Remeber the confession which a PGP-I girl wrote to you. I sincerely wish him a successful and happy professional and personal life :)...KISHLAI KUMAR Eeti.. as the name suggests, behaves like E.T. sometimes :P talks a lot.. sometimes doesn’t make sense.. but gives some thoughtful insights too.. doesn’t care abut what others think about him.. ikes to make new friends :P everything put together, you are one of a kind :) l Wish you all the best :)...B.NIRUN Eeti, all the best for all your future endeavors.. Please don’t wake up people in the night :P no hard feelings. Cheers! ...SURBHI SONI Have known you since the 1st term and observed a lot of change in you in these two years. Really appreciate how you took everyone’s advice and incorporated. Your CPs were initially a source of fun for us all but i started respecting you when sometimes you would be the only one who read the case and would summarize it. Always full of new ideas, i am sure you will one day be a succesful entrepreneur. All the best!! ...ROHIT KUMAR GUPTA Very few persons can even think of enjoying the jokes that are cracked on them. Santosh is among those very few people who have the guts to do it. He has a very friendly and helpful attitude. His frequent questions, some intelligent, some stupid, has annoyed many but his amicable attitude has pleased more. RIP and HOP would have been bland without you man. Yes, jokes were cracked on you but you took those at the very right spirit. Just a small advice as our ways part --- don’t speak out everything that is in your mind to everyone. Confide only to really close friend of yours. You are happy and will be happier this way. Best of luck!...DEBAYAN BISWAS Eeti..:) Jokes apart, you are one of the people everyone in the batch of 2012-14 is going to remember. Reasons may vary, but that’s an achievement in itself.:) You were the life of section-C in PGP1 and RIP was really fun with you. You have been subject of jokes and I have been the culprit at times, but all that’ always was in the spirit of friendship, hope you’ll take it all that way. Really happy for your dream placement. Have fun in Mumbai.:) Be blessed.:) ATB....Vishal Vyas The three idiots guy. Period. All the best for future. Stay sharp and stay blessed.... SANKALPA SARKAR

Chachiii, not only for me but for our entire batch, you are the most chilled chicks on campus. I got to know you better when we spent those awesome 2 months in Mumbai. They have been the best times of my life. Locals, marine drive, sizzlers, wada pav, beaches and what not - I will always cherish these. But tu itni moti kaise ho gayi? :P LOL. Hope to stay in touch with you always. All the best for your life \m/ (Your baander) :P...SIDDHARTH MATHUR

Chachii,,, I know main bolta hu to it sounds weird, but that’s how we are. What should I say, You’ve been with me through thick and thin. I know there’s one person on campus jiske pass jaake u can pour your heart out. She’ll make sure that you feel great about yourself. She is a person with the most compassionate heart, and would never shy away when you need her. You’re much more than a friend to me. Yes, I’ve teased you a lot and bhot zaada tang kiya, but life boring ho jaati. There are a lot of memories with you that I’d cherish for the rest of my life. Always stay the way you are, never change for anybody.. chahe koi kuch bhi bole...you’re awesome.

Unfortunately haven’t spend much time with her but in few meetings with her it feels like I know her since ages. Absolute party freak. I bet she can beat most of the guys when it comes to Tanki side of her. She lives by her rules and does not give a hoot to the world. Very self-confident and expressive. Will be difficult to find anyone who talks more or even as much as her. Keep enjoying life :) and ya please stop pulling my cheeksâ?¦ i donâ??t like it :-||...NIKHIL SHARMA

I find a lot of things common between the two of us. Great English (though Vekhande would disagree -_-), inability to remember how much money your friends owe you etc etc. What I lack, and what you have in abundance, is sheer hard work and a sense of responsibility. I, like many others in our batch, feel that IIM Indore has given them a lot. But I did little for the college. You probably have worked for the college more than anyone else!! You were the ideal CR, the ideal Acadcom Secy and more importantly for me, the ideal friend. Vekhande has introduced me to a lot of people on campus, but you are the one I cherish the most. You have accomplished a lot in your two years here, but your most important accomplishment is the fact that everyone here (me the most :P) feels genuinely happy for you when you succeed in anything. I am sure you will accomplish everything you want in life. Just go for it. Okay buddy? :P ...SANE NACHIKET SHRIHARI Praising Esh to his face is going to be awkward for both of us :P I don’t even know where to start! Selfless, clever, smart, hardworking, sincere and the adjectives can continue forever. I don’t want this to get repetitive, most of these qualities have already been mentioned numerous times in the testimonials. Just like an elder brother, he has always been so protective about me and has been a constant pillar of support for me through thick and thin. He has played a major role in whatever few things I know today. Had all of you guys not helped me during the placement season, I doubt I would have made it this far. I am so going to miss the senseless talks we have approx. million times a day! It’s difficult to even imagine oneself in his place, continuously helping everyone out. I seriously think our college and the student community owes him a lot! There is so much for all of us to learn from you. Also, I think it’s high time you learn to say ‘no’ sometimes. Chal, I don’t think I have to write much here to convey my thoughts and emotions. You are the best Esh! We all love you sooo much! P.S. This is the only time I have not abused you I guess :D...VEKHANDE AJINKYA KESHAV A testimonial cant justify how much I value my friendship with Eshwar, so I would put it succinctly- among all the good things that have happened here including getting my dream job at DB, I would say getting to know Eshwar is easily the most significant event of my last 2 years...Deepak Talluri Malluri, tu toh mast hai! :0 I couldn’t have asked for a better bestie! I admire and respect you for countless number of things and often wish that I had some of your qualities, your kindness and your commitment, Life wouldn’t have been this good without you! There is so much more, but can’t put it in words. :) Lots of hugs Malluri! To a life time of friendship! :)... RICHA PODDAR

The most humourous guy I’ve ever met. I stumble up on him every day in mess at sharp 12:30 in the noon to share our concerns about mess food. Has a huge apatite for his size :P...It’s good knowing you!...SAI PRASANNA KUMAR LAVU Nair - Our friendship started in Rendezvous 2012 in Bangalore. I wish you all the best for you future endeavors. Keep in Touch...VIGNESH A P Nair chetta!! Not a single day at planet-I passes without him running on the treadmill for 5 Kms..has taken all tough fin electives just for the kick it gave him :P..doesn’t take tension at all..Good luck man and stay in touch :) :)...VENKAT DUBASH. L Mr. Chicken Nair as we fondly call him... is a big foodie. Whatever be the problem the first angle that he brings in is of the food. Gets high on even the thought of eating food. The ultra flexible hands and head banging are his trademark. Sarcasm is the only emotion he believes in....ASHWIN SASIDHARAN M P Krishnan- Gives some of the most hilarious presentations...I still remember the one during first year...He is also a person who takes fitness seriously n is one of the very few who is a regular at the gym...It ws nice knowing u...Hv a gr8 future ahead...God bless u:)...Sneha Landge Nairrrr.... Ur sarcasm in every word, every line u uttered to me; ALWAYS!! Will remember this the most about you. U have been one of those very rare kinds whose shut me up :P Hats off for tht! Guys like u made classes fun. Wish you all the best for ur future.. Hope to keep in touch. Stay happy, stay witty! Cheers ...NEHA KANWAL Kicchu - as we called him back in Mu Sigma is the definition of “entertainment” and “sarcasm”. Having known him a year before joining IIM Indore it was a great relief to have a good friend in this campus. You can talk to him about everything under the sky and he will never fail to entertain you with his sarcasm even in the most serious of topics. His love for food and movies makes him an excellent companion to hangout with and let of some steam. I have always admired your wit and guts. Will miss our time together both at Mu Sigma and at IIM Indore. Stay in touch and stay mallu !!! ...DARSHAN.SUBASH Nair - It has been a great journey with you from musigma till IIM Indore and all set to continue at TCS as well. A big thank you from my side for teaching all of us almost all subjects - especially finance, for the countless number of times you have functioned as an alarm for most of us :P One memory which I will never forget is the brilliant presentation on musigma you gave in HR class - even though you were telling the truth, people thought you were being sarcastic :D Hoping to have a great time with you in the future as well :)...

Met late but dude u’ve formed a most important chapter of my memories at IIM indore. Cool, Friendly and easy going is how ill describe you. Those funny comments we’ve passed and those Adult jokes we’ve cracked will always be the best moments ive ever had. U’ve been my buddy in all the crazy plans that i make and i truly appreciate for that patience u have bearing with me. Felt like kicking u many times when u text while i talk to u but chalo atleast that half attention is fine as i always take you as granted that ull be my partner in every crime Hope to always stay in touch...PULI HARICHANDAN Despite sharing the same hostel with you, our first encounter was after the midterm of term 1 when I was cursing myself for screwing up my microeco exam. How easily you chilled me out! Load naa lena koi aap se sikhe :P After that there were a series of encounters, some of my “infamous harkate” :P and random bakar; most of which are best left untold :P Wishing you success in every aspect of life and phir milenge chalte chalte :)...MAINAK BHOWMIK Stephen, i think u’re the only guy in our gulte batch who’s got a great talent in playing musical instruments!

All the best for your job and your life and your family (read as a plea for an invite to your wedding :P). Definitely gonna miss you man!

All I can say Charles is a Good Boy - good at heart, work and friendship. He is a team player and initiative taker (fellowship group) and I really respect him for that!...SAURAV DEMTA Charles Raj... his name always remind me of kindness and humility.

I truly wish him success, happiness and prosperity in life. @Vlrs...VANLALROSIAMA RALTE The Guitarist. Good badminton player( I heard :P ). Sometimes he gets angry easily. I remember his favorite pose in photos (every time almost same ;) ) and prabhu imitates the pose very well. He has special penchant for taking pictures.

I wish you all the very best for all your future endeavors. Have a great life buddy. Keep in touch !!...SURESH MALLULA Charles somehow gets angry really quickly for a God fearing person :P good badminton and Guitar player.

I too have memories of seeing u often in the Library in the 1st year :D . You come across as a disciplined campaigner who is pretty straightforward at times. Good management of self - observation during HOP. A fitness enthusiast for sure ! Great with Quant and Statistics (thanks to which I could free ride on SAPM Assignment :P) HOP was real fun :) The Chinese accent that u enacted in the HOP skit amazed and amused me ! The skit writing part - with u and Karthik is one of the funniest memories for me at IIM I. I wish u all the best for all your future endeavours. I will definitely visit the gym that u open when we would have attended Middle Age ! (Assuming 50 k baad mera bura waqt shuru na ho jae :P) Milte rahenge ! :)...AYUSH AGARWAL Berry: Got to know berry thru term-1 group. He was not very happy with my contributions :P (who cares! :P) I mock him the ‘Old monk’, very quiet, methodic and contemplative. Berry has taught me so much especially cost accounting in just 30 minutes! He also coped with all my google talk nuissances :P It was great to meet and learn from him :) I am thankful for his support during the course :) Wishing him good luck in his times ahead :)... SRINIVAAS G Berry.. first time i saw u was during fms process.. n i remembered u wen I met u here.. A very intelligent n hardworking person.. keen to learn new things.. body bhi sahi bana li hai.. it was gr8 working with u in PPP.. spent some good time together in 1st yr.. all the best for shopclues.. keep in tch.....RACHIT MITTAL Berry... Mr lavanya....Its really amazing how we had became friends...Going out to Wanna Puff and taking a random B’day treat from you :D :D You are very dedicated (not just to Yoga and gymming) and your expressions and stories makes us laugh like anything :) :) A chick magnet and having discussions with you about dating tips have been real fun. You are very straightforward and down to earth person and one who thinks a lot (or slow response time):P :P Wish you a great career ahead and best of luck with your dreams (I think you might end up opening yoga center or Gym fitness clubs). Macahte raho and milte raho :) :)...UDIT BOKARIA Berry .Mr. Lavanya... arguably the most disciplined guy int the campus....and that is what I admire him for :D He is really a hard-working and dedicated guy who has time slots for each and every activity (I really mean each and every activity :p)/\ I would remember the endless number of times he has turned down our party invitations (Saale ne sangati ka asr nahi padne diya apne pe :P ) Also, he was my benchmate in the first year and I remember how he used to pay attention to each and every word /\ I other thing I admire you for is your HR skills /\.....bas thoda party karna seekh le :P Enuf said....always keep rocking and keep in touch :)...CHINMAY NAHAR

Low-profile guy, makes sense when he talks. That is how I have known Gaurav. The first time I got to know you was during the Exchange Allocation in 3rd term, when you were one of the few people who made sense amidst all stupidity and herd mentality. One can easily guess you to be an IITian by the way you conduct yourself. Getting to catch up at Santorini would have been more fun but nevertheless, was nice interacting with you! God bless :)... ISHAN BOSE The founding member of our group...very sharp, intelligent,practical..family guy...time thoda divide karna padgaya tujhe...warna would have known u a lot more...but a gr8 guy nonetheless...all the best..thodi gujarati bhi sikh le...kaam aaegi......SUGEET MITTAL Mohan is a very sincere guy. He talks straight and you know he means what he says. Though Mohan couldn’t make it to all of the BP boys outings (due to his other commitments), he was and will remain one of the key components of our group. Its been great to have known you so well and spent time with you on campus man. I have a feeling that our best times with each other lie ahead in our time in Mumbai. Here’s to a great career and personal life, though you seem to have both well taken care of :) Cheers mate....ADITYA BALARAMAN Mohan - the family guy. I have known him as a very warm friend who is very genuine and helpful. We could not have any trips together in Europe but maybe some trip in future.I will always remember the conversations we had when we were unplaced and how we were sure that we will get placed sooner or later in some good company. Thanks for introducing BP to the group. Cheers!!...Variksh Thaker This guy.. this guy here introduced us to BP and there has been no looking back since then:).. He is an ideal friend and an ideal Beta (He loves and respects his family members a lot).. What i love about Mohan is that he is very down to earth and easily approachable.. he is a likeable fellow and just one meeting \ conversation with him and you start liking him.. It was a privilege knowing you and we are definitely staying in touch..Rock Kardenge Rock :)...VARUN LAKRA GOMO as I call him...we met during the RIP trip and there has been no looking back after that... You will always enjoy his company and he will make you comfortable...he is his parents favorite kid :) and I will always remember him for all those vacation trips he made for us in RIP ,the RIP parties...our banglore outings,playing cards. he would never leave any chance to pull my leg..He would score highest without reading ..Though he boasts himself to be a good goalkeeper ,i still doubt :P As a member of Katwaa group ,he was the founding members ;) and lots of good memories...Wish you all the success for your future and will again meet in near future :)...KOTHARI ABHISHEK BHARAT

My personal opinion has been that Gholap is one of the most intelligent guys on campus. In the first year despite sitting close to him in the class, for some reason we were not really friends as such, but all that changed with the HOP where I really got to interact a lot with him and got to know the real Gholap :D I felt we were on the same wavelength and I could connect with him on almost any topic. I always enjoyed our conversations which were across a wide variety of topics. He is someone I hope to (and will )stay in touch regularly in Mumbai :) ...Deepak Talluri

Gholap! Friend, philosopher, vegetarian and a baiter :P.. you are one of the most sensiblepractical people I have met by far, not to mention that eidetic memory of yours! I bet you will recall every strategy case and all our trolls even after 10 years..and the perfect 4.333 (disgrace you are! :P..gulati ko bhi nahi mila itna!) I will always cherish our random banters, late night canteens, J block fundae sessions and all the “accha khaanas” :D You are a true friend (remember guati b’day treat, sheesha, 2012 :P) and these 2 years would not have been as fun and memorable without you guys :)..Also reserve a BoD seat for me in your manufacturing company, salary baad me negotiate karenge :P Chal ab TV series dekhna kam karde aur gym ja :P - H...ROHINI H When I came to IIM Indore being fan of someone was like a far fetched imagination but everything changed once I met you. Your Intellect surprises me every moment. I have been vocal about my admiration as well. You are so good balancing multiple things whether studies or games or watching series (Incredible). I will always remember those walks during placements season when u were trying to calm me down. I owe you so much. Had some of the best moments in the Cab’s back seats singing with you and Sonica, Should I even mention those jogging days building up to HoP and infinite number of assignments we worked together. I feel privileged to be friends with you. All the best. Always remember our Harvard pact.!!! Stay in touch....SUMANTH J This is the hardest testimonial that I am writing. There are so many beautiful memories that we shared, itâ??s very difficult to pick a few of them and mention them here. Let me start by telling you how blessed I feel that we landed up in the same assignment group in term one. These two years wonâ??t have been so easy and enjoyable had I not met you then. Smart and intelligent but without even a hint of air of arrogance. Very polite and caring, a true friend. Would go at any length to help any of his friends. You are a person who knows what to talk, how to talk and when to talk. You know how to keep everybody around you happy. I will never forget the infinite number of movies we watched together, all the random things we talked about and how we endlessly roamed around the campus. Thank you for being there for me, you made my two years memorable. And of course we will be in touch :P...SONICA GUPTA

Golu.. One of my best friends on campus. You seem to be silent and too innocent but I know what kind of a Fu***r you are. You are a hardworker. Be that way, Im sure you are going to go places. Loved the times when we spent having drinks.. All the best for your future! :)...YASARAPU VAMSIKRISHNA Ashwin- Salya, room madhe rahana kami kar ani baher nigh thoda. We’ve had a few drunken night outs together, and there is one especially in the first year which I can never forget! I have known you to be very hardworking and dedicated in everything that you do. Be like that, and everything else will just fall in place. And let me know when do you have time, we need to have one more night out before we pass out :) Cheers!...TANMAY LALIT TAPASE My interaction with you was limited to Ahvan Ops, and that was more than sufficient to see the honesty and depth you have got as a human. Your sincerity and zeal was a big plus in moments when everything was going haywire. We continue to be good friends since then, because of sharing that bond of commitment towards work and college. Career opportunities won’t define people in the long-run, though I’m very sure you’ll do well even there. Always be known for your commitment for work and care & respect for your people, your team, is my wish for you. Stay connected. Stay blessed.:) ATB....Vishal Vyas A treasure trove of knowledge and information. He knows about almost everything under the sun that is of national importance. Politics, History, Political History â?? this guy knows it all. And the f*cker never talks! I am one of the privileged few who have heard him speak and I always end up gaining so much value from what he says. Truly an ideal company. Be the way you are golapkar, things have to fall in place for you. Cheers. Looking forward to saying that with a glass in hand :D ...SANE NACHIKET SHRIHARI Ashwin is probably the most invisible person on campus. But, when you bump into him in those odd unearthly hours, you have the true privilege of spending time with a great human being. You will never fully know him, though this might serve as an apt disclaimer, what you do find out along the way will pleasantly surprise you. He has a huge trove of knowledge and can outrun you anytime you decide to taking a jog with him. But, he does so in the most unassuming manner and that will be my everlasting memory of him. I will hold our friendship in the highest regards. I wish you the best in life!...SYED ERAJ HASSAN Ashwin! Why are you so quite dude!! We mortals get to see only glipmses of Ashwin once in a while and from these apperances we assure ourselves that he is still alive and we all can relax again :P What I like most about Ashwin is his calm and composed nature. I have never once seen him pissed! Be the person you are even after you become an IAS officer, an MP and India’s next PM :D And ofcourse remember me coz i’ll need some favours too :D All the best for your ambitious career ahead. I am sure with the perseverance you show in your goals, you will be successful!...ESHWAR M S 126

Lasting impressions about college : A place where you never function according to the hands of the clock. days are when you sleep and nights are when you are awake.

Harjai, Harju, Harzoozooo..... Preparing for exams, reaching out to u with Loppy to get some last min subject tips, listening to all new hindi tracks, playing dumb charades or taboo, trying to answer ur rapid fire questions (jo unfortunately na toh rapid hote hain, na hi unmein fire hoti hai!! :P) and most importantly dancing till the last song on those DJ nights.. a true Punjabi friend :) all these are the memories of you I will always cherish. I remember that one night where Kavya, Loppy and you updated me on all HOP and term 5 stories, and you guys kept arguing, laughing, shouting and we had a long walk till some 4-5am..it was so good to feel connected yet again after the void caused by exchange. Another thing I appreciate a lot is how sporting you have been during all those CPs in Section-B or leg pulling done by all of us. You and your tamatar jaisa face when u blush or when u are angry!! :P Wish you all the best.. hopefully yeh dosti ka jodd fevicol ke jodd jaise tootega nahi :D...NEHA KANWAL Harju, you are without doubt one of my few closest friends ever. I really canâ??t imagine how life at IIM I wouldâ??ve been without you around. I got to know you only in our second year, and started interacting with you with a big bunch of pre-conceived notions in my head (ghissu, stuck up, etc). But within no time, you forced me into changing my opinion of you. I admire how youâ??re extremely focused and give your 100% to things that you take up. I also wish I had the clarity and surety that you have about your goals in life. Yes, you are a ghissu (:P), but thereâ??s so much more to you than just that. Iâ??m not going to get into details of all the experiences weâ??ve shared, but each one of those experiences have been super special because you were a part of them. I realized itâ??s impossible not to like you, because youâ??re so much like me! Our love for ourselves â?º, Bollywood, dance, pani puri, similar taste in music, TV shows (except Bigg Boss :P ), ads and lastly, our super inflated egos, makes it just so easy to be around you. About our fights, Iâ??m glad they happened because they brought us so much closer. Iâ??ve never told you this earlier, but what makes you awesome is that with you, I can say whatever I want, and know youâ??ll understand; I can sing whatever I want, and know youâ??ll sing along; I can do whatever I want and know youâ??ll have my back; I can crack any lame joke and know youâ??ll nod your head in disapproval but still laugh along. In short, I can just be myself around you and very few people have that privilege â?º Hereâ??s to a lifetime of long chats, random holidays, movie marathons, telepathy, pani puri, and finishing each otherâ??s sentences. Iâ??m so glad I put in all that effort and convinced you to come on the Rajasthan trip (yes, Iâ??m going to take credit for it) because our stint here deserved that fitting an end. And about putting in that effort in the future, for you, a thousand times over â?º...KAVYA AMARNATH

Still remember the day when we met at the Gate 2 Dhaba in term 1! :) We became friends over drinks and that’s when we decided to go on RIP together ! Paaji the parties we had together were always fun ! You seem to be very close to your family ( I know all the members of your family since you used to discuss about them after getting high all the time :P :P ) The RIP trip was the best trip (after exchange of course :P ) at IIM Indore. Cannot forget how you, Senajit, Majumdar and I used to roll joints and then in the end only me and majumdar were last men standing :P Ideal endorser for Honey Singh songs. No party of yours is complete without listening to YO YO and your epic dance steps! :) Apart from all these I never saw a better free rider than you Paji! :P The HRM assignments which you did (read copied) on behalf of your group put Vatsal in the soup for the second time and only when the Prof showed us what you had done did you accept that you did not even change the format! :D But I must accept Paaji you are a very nice person at heart jo kabhi kisika bura nahi chahega.. Though did not party much with you in PGP2, I was happy to be a part in which you were the main hero :) :) Paaji you rock! I know you will be a busy I-banker but still try to keep in touch :) Cheers to good times!...RAHUL YADAV One of the best things that happened to me at IIM Indore. Has been partner in all his ventures and crimes (remember the FPM block terrace) and have enjoyed the best times with him. Has been the source of all my information about what is happening around (he is omnipresent, knows everything and believes in keeping people around him informed ;) ). Complete bakchod (like me) and a friend u tend to share ur deepest secrets to even though u know that every person on the planet will be talking about that soon. We operate on same frequency. Once we get started there is no ending be it bitching about every damn person on the earth, discussing about relationship status of people around, teasing people around, red dragon, dancing, parties and list goes on. Whenever u feel bored or low, just knock on his door, lie on his bed and start bakchodi and I assure you won’t be disappointed. One of the few people I can count on when something important has to be done (really ?? :O) .U have been great support during hard times and great fun in the lighter ones. Something I know about this friendshipâ?¦its one for the life buddy. You may have your numerous faults, and you may be more than a bit crazy. But you have to be crazy to achieve the kind of stuff you do. Salute. Stay as you are. Keep in touch (or Iâ??ll come chasing you down no matter wherever you are) !!...NIKHIL SHARMA Sardar!!! we share a friendship which started long before IIM Indore :P You have been a special friend!!

Harmeet Singh Bhogal, aka Mr. Bhogal, the person who would sit besides me for the whole 1st year :p. So here we started our term I with amazing hostility but then we bonded well & had amazing time during lectures :p. A very approachable guy, ask for any help and you would never get a no for an answer :). His CP’s though few but were sufficient to bring the area around him out of sleep & make them think atleast for 2 minutes to understand what he had told :p :p ( & then back to sleep). Glad to have a friend like you, a nice guy, Wishing you all the very best for future :-) ...PANKAJ DHINGRA Really nice and helpful guy. Still untouched by politics but has to learn about handling peers. All the best for life ahead. May god bless you.Thank you for helping me all this while. great to have a friend like you...BARLEEN KAUR The original Johnny of J Block. Be it anybodyâ??s birthday, there would be this guy with all sorts of creepy stuff (shoe polishes ad what not) to decorate the birthday boy. Always enthusiastic about get-togethers and J block event. Frankly I always despised being called a Johnny :P but it was fun to have someone like you who would take initiative out of the way. A perfect fit for Culcomm. Have a great future. God bless :)...ISHAN BOSE I got to know Bhogal when the two of us became a part of CulCom senior team. He is extremely passionate about CulCom. He works diligently at innovating and executing events. He has played a great role in taking CulCom to greater heights and increasing its visibility. He is extremely kiddish at times and loves to play pranks on people. At first glance, people may think that he comes from a military background (he dresses a little like army men). He is a good human being. It was great knowing you. Wishing you all the best for all your future endeavours....BHANTI PRATIKSHA DEEPAK Harmeet Singh Bhogal A.K.A Bhogal A.K.A HSBC, i knew this guy even before i joined IIM Indore since we are from the same place. But I got to know him better only after he got into CulCom. An awesome fun guy to hang around with, extremely passionate about CulCom (he is famous for his “Pyaar ka Matka” fixation”). This guy can play some real good pranks (most famous being making people engaged with a certain Payal Mundra). A brilliant online promotion specialist and awesome event idea generator (including “Pyaar ka Matka”). He visits my room at random hours to discuss CulCom ideas. A very energetic guy and a marathon runner. He has backed me up whenever required and he gave up everything else for CulCom. I honestly salute his spirit. We surely be in touch. All the best for your future bro!!...SENAJIT CHAKI

Wonderful human being.. hard-working, sincere, polite, friendly and bubbly always:) tu nahi hota toh mere tennis khelne ki iccha adhuri reh jaati ;) aur I still maintain u shudv been wid our team in HOP ;) Fastest to the summit, popular amongst all (not a single person held a grudge against u).. really symbolized the innocent dedicated Pahadi.. hop to stay in touch wid u:)... KRIT DOSHI Harsh is the most humble person i met on campus. He is the social guy who is always friendly with everyone. Apart from sports/marathon where he is the best, he is a talented sports and movie quizzer. In tennis, he always tries for that ace whose probability is 1%(But he says that he has improved). All the best for your aspirations. B in touch!...ABHIJIT DAS wat a person! if there is one guy who gels well with everyone and almost everyone , it has to be pahadi :D...have a good life ahead ,,,,we will start some business in manali ..remember :P...AKHIL DATTANA The natural athlete from Himachal. My hostel neighbour in first year as well as section Cmate. The person who is popular throughout the batch for his good nature and interesting & funny stories. You were reason throughout first year because of which I could wear clean clothes ( thanx for the bucket and brush). Had a awesome time with you throughout HOP be it ghost stories inside tent or your attempted “poker face” expressions. Stay the way you are. Keep in touch.. ALl the best!!! :) :)...SWARNENDU SEN Fellow pahari at the campus, We had this natural bonding between us. A great person, pure at heart, will help you any time you ask him for that. wish you good luck buddy for your future and stay in touch...TEJINDER KUMAR NEGI Bodh - the most CHILL person you’ll ever come across in LIFE. I’ll be honest - I sort of envy the coolness and happiness that you always seem to have. You are an inspiration for others that the only important thing is life is to be happy :). A regular football colleague - we had some good times but Bodh totally upstaged every1 by winning back to back IFLs. In RIP, you could see the sheer joy and happiness in him in being amongst the hills compared to the tiredness and abuses elsewhere. Just hope you stay the same - cool as ever. Loved knowing you here. Hope we can stay in touch. All the best :) n btw he’s a self-proclaimed Man City fan :P ...ARUP MANDAL Bhai, I hope you remember our future business idea. We are Man city fans and we will grab the cup this time!! Coolest guy and enviable defender on campus..You used to win every tournament and stole my best defender spot..:P Good luck ahead man!!...BISMAYY MOHAPATRA

What would have happened to the French revolution of the ghost community if we didn’t meet at IIM-I. For the greater good of all bhootkind, the institute brought us together on this platform. All my conversations with Harsh started at ‘chudal’ and ended at ‘bhoot’. 3 cheers to all those stupid theories. May you continue to enjoy your death for eternity :D : D...SHOBHNA SHRUTI

I guess u were the only person who had a close enough life before coming here ;) both of us had been brought up in kol, then spent substantial time in Bangalore before coming down to Indore. So we had njoyed the best of both worlds i.e. the cheapest metro city on one hand and the coolest climate on the other ;) Naturally we werenâ??t much fond of Indore when we came down here :P However had great memories from here ï?? Ur Rasgulla comment wich had the entire class split their sides ;) u always had this knack of dismissing comments and enlivening the class with sharp arguments.. Again had loads of fun as part of the cricket team in IPL and in HOP. U r an Amazing singer n a rapper n it ws really awe-inspiring the way u cud recite all the lyrics widout a single mistake, specially the Gambler songs ;) Glad that I got to know u wile my stay here. All the best for future.. ...KRIT DOSHI A person who can always cheer you up irrespective of the situation. He has a skill of presenting normal matters in a humorous way. Looks like a guy who enjoys life to the fullest. Loves Frosty ice cream..can’t spend a day without it. Got to work with you in Raghu’s subject and it was fun. Wish you all the very best in life :)...DIPAYAN KARMAKAR Babaji!!!.... The person with a awesome grasp on politics in India and current affairs.An enthusiastic foodie ( though would have been better if you had been a non-veggie ;) ) and a “hatke” sense of humour are your characteristics which I will remember. Had awesome fun during HOP with the constant singing and your collection of old songs especially “meri marzi”.... The HOP would not have been so much fun without you.. All the best!!! :) :)... SWARNENDU SEN It is easy to get intimidated by Harsh when you first meet him. But, when you get to know him, you see a genial and cordial person who would always be there when you need him. With Harsh I have had the ability to converse on a variety of topics and it is because he is so well informed and read. What I take with me are our trips to city, in search of good places to eat given the foodies we are. I have in you a special friend that I will not forget. I wish you the best in life!...SYED ERAJ HASSAN An extremely cheerful, well-read, upright and frank person who speaks straight from the heart! Sec C last-bencher..i remember you taking on Vyas, Malhotra & so many others.. your targeted CP was indeed delightful! Never do change & keep smiling always :)... THAKUR ANSHU MANOJ

Motu. The name we use for each other. What a bubbly character you are. Gets all charged up only to say let us chuck it all and have some fun. Sings and plays the guitar well though not many know about it. His room is so full of stuff that I am always tempted to take one thing or the other and trust me he will let them with ease. He is good at gadgets and knows about them in great detail. Wishing you loads of smiles! ...Rishabh Trivedi Harsh - The number of times I have bothered this guy is a testimony of how much he will be missed. One thing I must say this guy bears me a lot. All the worst insults I can ever come up in life go to this fellow here. It always starts off with planning a dinner or chilling out on a weekend but I hardly keep my promises and we never go through with it. He’s always been there for me. A very sweet, nice good at heart, naive guy who will always have my love. Things would have been really hard for me had it not been for him. Though one thing I do hate is how he keeps all his hot female friends in the dark and never offers to introduce them. Remember the day you, me and mayank were up on J block and shouting for no reason. Its one of my favorite moments on campus. Stay chubby dude! Luv :) :)... Sanjay Yelisetti Harsh - My only love on campus.. Only problem is he is everyone’s darling... Very good at heart and fun to be with.. Never feels bad about a joke and always in on going out.. One person I can trust always and with anything and I value your friendship a lot more than it appears.. Dont lose the smile Harsh, no matter what... I hope you’ll get everything you want in life... all the very best dude :) Just dont get slim alright...I know we’ll stay in touch.. Lots of Love...!!!...NIKHILESH MURALA Harsh is not just a friend but a brother I found in this campus. His ever-smiling face who can stand my idiosyncrasies, my sudden outburst of emotions and excitement. I can’t even think of surviving these 2 yrs without you on my side. Everything I say is understatement to the friendship we shared. You are one of cutest guy ( yeah I knw hw dearly u wanted to hear this frm the fairer sex) . Harshhhhhh, thanks for being there always. I sometimes feel that you know my reaction more than I would. First yr ki bakar, HOP ak awesome time, Nainital mein eating Paneer Chilla and Placements ki discussion - Everytime was perfect :) I know you will go places and I will there to demand party from you at each point :D Kutte, chal ab trip plan karte hain !...MAYANK JAIN

The first impression that I had of him was that the guy is a Fin-god and as they say “First impression is the last impression”...banda sahi me Fin God hai...saale ko Fin ke funde fingertips pe rate hue hain. I think is se jyada tareef iski main kar nahi sakta. He is one of the most “I dont care” attitude guys that you will come across in the campus....today is the last day and still he has not filled his yearbook details :P Europe jane ke baad to alag hi bond ban gaya hai ye....Bas ab to ye pitega :P Had great time with you in Rip and PD/RD and I hope this is just the starting of a never ending journey. Wish you all the success and keep in touch :D...CHINMAY NAHAR

One of the first few chennai people that I got to know on campus. Having come from the same undergrad college, we could connect easily and I think we are very like-minded (or atleast thats what I think :P). We were both keen on going on exchange from day one and wanted to be part of Klueless, both of which we eventually did. Got to know harsh really well as part of K8 team and spent countless hours (nightouts) making crazy Klueless levels. Harsh ‘s brain works at 2X speed and ONLY thinks out of the box, which has caused him trouble in various exams/quizzes :P K8 wouldn’t have been fun without him. On exchange, we went on a couple of trips, one which included the Paris Masters which was one of the highlights of my exchange trip. (Remember running from one end of the court to the other for Del Potro’s autograph :P). Fun times! Good luck and stay in touch! ...HITESH H CHANDNANI I will remember you as one of the most confused, careless and unpredictable person on the campus. I always thought I was childish until I met you. You have been a good friend harsh and your thoughtful advices have helped me many a time. I will always cherish the long, pointless talks about various silly topics that we have had for hours which made me realise that behind a kid, there is a very mature and emotional person. A piece of advice for you: plz dont shout and be rude to random people, you can make anyone cry easily when you become that nasty :P. Stay in touch, dont get lost plz. God bless you !!!...AANCHAL GOYAL Everyone knows Harsh as random, who gets lost or who is too intelligent to be aware of what happening around himself. So I will save all that crap and say what Harsh is beyond all this. ï?? Harsh is always up for having some different in life and the more whackier the idea the better, we once found a tunnel full of graffiti on a random stop on Spain France border, got water thrown on us by a Frenchman in Marseilles and this is the sort of stuff you can expect with Harsh around and you will never hear anything except how awesome all this was. Thatâ??s what I like about Harsh, he will be around endless groups in Campus, be in places you will never imagine but will always have good things to say about everybody and everything. He is one of the best people to have a meaningful conversation with and you can be sure he is pouring his heart out without a regard for what you will say in return. Probably thatâ??s why everyone likes Harsh on campus. I have found out in the last 2 years that he is as emotional as me and gets bored with things as quickly as me. ï?? But he has a really different and exciting view of life and I could totally picture him doing something that nobody thought of making millions out of it and eventually donating all that money and living as a hippy. :P ...SURABATHUNI PALLAV say hello to Mr Forgetful.. It is shocking how this person is so smart yet so careless :P from an Aditya Birla scholar to the guy who comes half an hour late to the worst exam, this fellow is full of surprises.. though I spoke to him only a handful number of times, I always felt at ease talking to him..Persistent efforts of this warm, charming and fun loving boy to include me in the trichy group finally paid off ;) stay in touch :)...ANJEL JOSEPH 134

This little guy from my state “ASSAM� has been an absolute rockstar. He is a very good hearted guy and i know this bcos i have never failed at judging good people. A little quiet and calm guy , he is an extremly good friend. A friend who lends a helping hand, a friend who doesnt ask too many questions. a friend who understands you ,,,, He has lent me a lot of money for my regular expenses, which is mostly trips to punjabi dhaba and flight tickets....hahaha that apart, i think he is a great guy at heart and will always remain a good friend even after we are done with IIM Indore. He ia a great dancer and always waits for DJ parties to happen , but unfortunately drinks too much on DJ party night and passes out ...hehehe..all in all a great friend and one of the few guys in this campus with a clean heart..... ...RAJU GHOLLEY mango bhai...the way i call him is a chill dude...Always ready for a party time...chalo chalte hai... the music night in your room with Raju playing is one of the best times at IIM Indore. Unfortunately we could not be together for RIP but I think we made it up in HOP... I miss your white rimmed goggles dude :P A great friend and cool companion to hang out with... stay in touch :) Wishing you all the success and happiness in your life :)...RAJENDRA BABU MELLAM Bhai apna partner chahe party ho ya fir himalaya ki chadhai ho.. We had been together as a team for two years. Hemango is a person whom you cant stop yourself from being his friend once you meet him. Such a person he is, his simplicity and genuineness mesmerises. We have so many memories to cherish my friend and will always treasure these memories forever. Good luck and stay in touch :) :)...TEJINDER KUMAR NEGI Hi Mango... We were together only for those 2months of summer internship... but I really had a great time with u. Internship was fun only becoz of you... You were a great room mate and friend. I will always remember those visits to roadside dhabas where u wud surprise everyone by the amount of rice you ate. Then apne chintoo bhai ki tang kheenchne me bhi koi kami nahi rakhhi hamne. That visit to Mt Abu was also a welcome break in dry state of gujarat ;) And thanx for the bday celebration... I never expected that. Bahot mast banda hai tu... keep the masti on. All the best for your future....RAJAT

He is the friend with whom my frequency matches the most (Be it alcohol or ops). A true party lover who usually thrives on Alcohol and chicken (he got a stomach upset after eating plain dal-rice). Our very own Sutta entrepreneur and the only Bar owner of our campus. This guy has been my partner in so many things that i can’t even count. Be it assignment group, corp competitions, boozing, travelling and obviously 29. A partner in true sense. The booze parties at Daddu’s is something that i’ll always cherish. Hope the partnership continues, Cheers!! (Gandi baat playing in the back ground) :) ...SENAJIT CHAKI With chubby cheeks and a smile on face, Daadu does not appear to be as ‘daadu-ish’ and old as he is. A very talented and focussed person --- the main source of jokes in Big Bong group. A person who literally keeps his door open for everybody. Has easily grabbed one of the most coveted placements on campus with a sky-rocketing package, the exact figure remaining unknown to everyone on campus till date. :-P A really helpful senior, always ready to roam places without even thinking how good / bad the destination is. Not being too interested in conventional public events like Durga Puja or Saraswati Puja, Daadu has his own ways of partying. Humility is one of his prominent traits. Proudly claims himself to be a ‘cashless cow’ without any substantial reason. Creates an air of ease and friendliness whenever he is around. Daau is an inspiration to many. Wish you all the best!...DEBAYAN BISWAS Our beloved Daddu, no number of words is enough to describe his activities. His sleeping in the corner of 1st bench with his hoodie on, establishment of the Chandni bar, nightlong ‘theka’. Daddu has done it all. The one who kept whatsapp alive with his supply of jokes, supplied daaru on a dry day, told us about the awesome fish fingers in Classic. It was great to have you as such a great friend and hope to see a lot more in the coming times. Wish you an amazing stint in Amazon and in life...Ullash!! :-)...Rajarshi Biswas

You are for sure the best friend I ever had. This journey of IIM seemed like a happy tour and ended so quickly with you. Your ‘chotii bachii’ wali harkatein, your stumbling here and there, your ‘awesome’ direction sense and all of your cute things always made me laugh when you were around. This thing could not have been more joyful. Thanks for doing almost all of my assignments, even when I didn’t ask you to do them. You act so mature in front of others that I wonder is this even the same girl that I know. Himi, one thing is for sure that you’ll never grow up :P. I’ll always cherish the time we spent, even the one when you made me go n get coffee for you from pi shop.But you always played your part. Thanks for making maggi for me whenever I was hungry :P Your were always there for me. Eurotrip was the best trip I ever had and that was only because of you. You are very brainy, you are excellent at your work and you have what it takes to become a CEO. You are so charming that who so ever meets you admires you. The combo of all these make you an exceptional person. I am sure you’ll be very successful. I hope we’ll be like this forever. Just be this amazing and keep me correcting whenever I am wrong. All the best for everything :)...KSHITIJ TAYADE Our first proper interaction was during RIP. It was good to know u. I was impressed by your level of maturity. Its always good to be bubbly and mature at the same time. You have an appealing smile and a very ‘expressionate’ face which makes u very cute. I wish u all the very best for all your future endeavours ! :)...AYUSH AGARWAL Himakshi gupta â?? The coolest girl on campus. Very strong-minded and someone who can handle any situation. You can be the next â??Arnab Goswamiâ?? on Seedhi Baat â?? a sweeter version nonetheless. Jokes apart - you have tremendous potential and will definitely do well wherevre you go. There are few girls I’ve come across who are as street smart as you. All the best for life ahead!...SHAH SOHAM SAMIR ANJANI Himakshi â?? â??The next Chanda Kochar in makingâ??.Haha I know you hate this comment. I still remember the placement prep times when you were really worried that you will get placed in ICICI bank and it turns out you get a PPO. But I am sure you will do really well. We have been friends since sem 1 and have had awesome time playing cards, taboo, dance parties, LUDO at RIP, random talks over coffee. You have been one of the coolest girl I have met; stay the same....Variksh Thaker Neighbor for a year...one of the most intelligent females i have met....still think you are better suited to analytics than finance....wish you all the best for the future...HEMANTA PRAMANICK

Sala HOP pe jake pata chala itna fit hai hamare nigam , bahut chilled out bhai itna kaise reh leta ho :). Always remember your billo ki tak jhak with Rahul. Njjoyed the two years of sharing the same wing and it has turned out into a great friendship that I would always cherish. Anyways bhot bakar ho gayi best of luck :)...ANKUR JAIN Himanshu, one of my first friends on campus and still remains one of the closest ones. Very chilled out mostly but sometimes can get a bit tensed. Has very simple philosophy and a sorted attitude towards life. A natural learner and an athlete- learnt badminton, Table Tennis, Trekking almost instantly. Once he considers someone his friend, he will tease them a lot but will also stand by them if someone else tries to make fun of them. Had a lot of fun during HOP. Won’t forget those memories of the Trek, those train journeys back to home and playing badminton and TT with you. All the Best for all your future endeavours! Hope you always stay like this....ROHIT KUMAR GUPTA Himanshu is a chilled out and fit person. Crazy for TT and badminton, and quite good as well. HOP pe prove kar diya tune ki kitne paani me hai. :) Enjoyed your satirical attitude and jokes. Best of luck for the future. ...NAVTEJ VERMA My humble friend....you have been there for every minute need of mine...your help is unforgettable and you have one of the best marketing brains in our campus....don’t get discouraged by temporary setbacks as the best is for those who don’t quit.....I am happy to have a good friend like you...lets rock the marketing world!!!!...EETI SANTOSH kaafi thakele lagte hain waise to yeh par inhone HOP me furti se sabko apna fan bana liya tha..a good friend who is very complicated until he gets drunk..after dat inki harkate dekhte hi banti hain..planning next trek..see you there..u will achieve great heights :p :)...RAHUL BALWADA

A really cool fellow chennaite...always helpful. Yahan ake NIT, Trichy ka naam roshan kiya :P A fin Guru, college topper etc etc I’m glad I got to meet such a nice senior as you...but yes I won’t forget the promised belgian chocolates that I never got :P...SAMPANNA PARHI Hitesh Bhai...Fin Guru of planet I...in fact The GURU of everything....Hitesh we worked together in term 2 for various assignments and it was great to work with you. One thing that nobody can deny about you is whichever group you were part of, the group members would completely rely on you...because everyone knew Hitesh will definitely come up with some solution...As a person you are cool, Hardworking and Intelligent. I never saw you getting tensed about anything. One word that you used frequently was â??BHAISAAHABâ??....I guess itâ??s IIM Indore effect... ï?? .... My best wishes for your career...!!! Forgot to mention your distinct identity...Hair Style...It should be Copyrighted ...ANIKET YEVALKAR One of the loveliest human beings I have met on campus if not in my whole life. Scientists could find life on Mars before the world manages to find a hint of attitude in Hitesh. Had the good luck of staying in the same floor as his for two consecutive years. A true genius in his own right. Could balance his work and social life to a tee. Being a fresher, there is one thing that I have imbibed from him is how to maintain your poise and grace when things are not working for you in life. One of the most genuine and caring people I have been a friend of. Wish you a great life ahead. Stay in touch. Hope to see more of you after we pass out :) :) ...SAYAN BAGCHI Well Hitesh.... I’m going to miss you here at IIM-I..! You were the first person at Planet-I to give me pep talks that got me through Term-I.... Right from resume iterations to general advice, you cleared up set my direction right.. I’ll always remeber you as the soft-spoken guru... :D Wish you you the best and lets keep in touch...!...ISHAN GURG Yoooooooooooo....... This is the most frequently uttered line in our conversations.. One of the coolest guy that one can meet. Never one to lose his temper, always calm and composed, and the best possible combination of hard work and intelligence. With the bare minimum effort that you put in, the fact that you are in the top 3 of the batch speaks volumes about your infinite qualities. You let me free ride the entire 4th term in all subjects. Its a very bad habit and my 5th term group members had to suffer because of it. I seriously hope you end up in Chennai next year.. P.S. Get married soon.. I want to have good non veg Sindhi food :P Yours truly, The Racist Bastard ;)...ARINDAM PAUL Hitesh and me share a compatibility which I am sure he wouldnâ??t have found since his NIT Trichy days where he stayed in shared rooms :P. The best analytical mind I have met and is an â??excelâ?? god. He is carefree, lives in the present and believes in making no compromises....PRANAY TODI

Hitesh Bhai, J-Block johny, one of the most cheerful person I have ever seen, very helpful would rarely say no to anything :-). Though used to go to Gym regularly but still would always be sufferung from backpain or some other pain :p :p [Remember the spray incident :d]. Wishing you all the very best for future :-) and hope that our paths may cross again in the future...PANKAJ DHINGRA If I were to decribe Hitesh in one word, I would use the word ‘Leader’. Hitesh is a modest person who always remains calm and steady under stressful environment, he has a good listening and critical thinking skills. He is good in dealing with aggressive people, angry chicks(prolly because of some unknown reasons) and also idiots. :D We had a wonderful time together exploring the alpines of the Himalayas. I will always remember the day he blacked out on the top of the Himalayan Mountain just to get one trophy for our Team. He was a fun person to hang out with, not to mention his modesty and considerate personality to people around him. I wish him all the best in his career, and to have happy and prosperous life. #Vlrs...VANLALROSIAMA RALTE ‘Mujhse Shadi Karogi’... lol ;) ;) CHAND tu jitna bahar dikhta hai utna hi andar bi hai.. but I still feel u are among the few pure at heart... it was nice to work with you & having fights over things which are not gonna matter in the long run (waise bi tu 29 tak yahi hai na.. :P) Lets rock again on stage / off stage.. :D...MANISH KUMAR BANSAL ohh as i sit in my chair to write this testimonial, flurry of memories and emotions run through my mind. Bringing smile on face when I remember all those foolish acts that we did, late night unofficial low profile parties together, trying to be a good “host” ( if u know what i mean) :P hanging out together in those foreign colors :P your out of this world dance moves, your never ending lecture on health and nutrition.I still remember the day when you started giving expert advice on health and nutrition. Your friendship with Hostel officer Mr. Niraj :P and that epic night when “ yeh toh mast MUJH SE SHAADI KAROGE wala scene ho rakha hai” :D :D well the list of such wonderful memories is very long and this testimonial would not suffice to consume all those... that bonding of ours was natural as we both are paharias. :) Hope this friendship of ours would never end and we would be seeing each other for many years to come.. Thank you buddy for being such a wonderful companion and wish you a very good luck for your future.. No need to say that stay in touch :)...TEJINDER KUMAR NEGI HIitteessss bhaiiii..... ;) This guy is an embodiment of energy, always on his toes and ready to make his contribution in anyway possible. He should have become a dietitian instead of a manager, has mad knowledge about food and the calories it has and amount one should take blah blah...Would definitely remember the times you came to my room and said to me Bhai aaj toh scene ho gaya yaar!! or asked me Kya scene hua tha yaar raat ko!! :P Have a great life...wishing you all the success and happiness in life...cheers :)...RAJENDRA BABU MELLAM

EmailId : p12ishanb@iimidr.ac.in Date of Birth : 31.10.1989 NickName : Bose, Bosey (Bosie) Personal Email ID : ishanbose31@gmail.com LinkedIn Id : http://in.linkedin.com/in/ishanbose31/ Facebook Page : https://www.facebook.com/ishanbose31 Hostel Room : SR10-212, SR03-214 Permanent Address : Delhi About Me : Puzzle maker. Chess player. Eternally amateur guitarist. Occasional flirt. Travel addict. Sports fan(atic). Movie buff lately. And an entrepreneurial consultant now. Also, a potential good friend. Most Memorable CP : 7 consecutive CPs in ISM class in Term 2 PORs on campus : International Co President - ShARE Business Development team; Klueless Ideal endorser for : Student Exchange program One song you symbolize : Patience - Guns & Roses One song you symbolize : Bhaag Bhaag DK Bose (more so for the sentiment I arouse in people many a time than the beautiful usage of my last name in the song) Frequently uttered lines : 10 years from now you will be : having fun as always (if alive) If not MBA then : a farzi engineer looking forward to pursue an MBA! Favourite spot on campus : Alok Hegde’s room (not because of what you are thinking right now) Friend groups on campus : No group in particular, more of individual & independent friendships from across circles. First crush in the institute : Lasting impressions about college : Helped me explore the world, literally! Lasting impressions about college :

Bose, my Klueless buddy, is the weirdest guy I know in campus :D. That makes him one of the most interesting people too. The is no limit to the craziness he can commit himself to. Spend some time with him and he will keep on surprising you with the weird experiences he had in his life. Some of them might sound too crazy to have actually happened... like the one when he was held at gun point because he sang a song :D :D :P...but as you get to know more about him, u realize that weirder stuff can happen to him. The random statements that blurt out of his mouth on a continuous basis never ceases to shock you and leave you speechless for minutes, till u finally burst out laughing at its insanity. And his jokes...oh boy...they are outta this world when it comes to randomness. His best one according to me was the one about Klueless team...”If Richa was a man, we would have called ourselves Seven and a Half Men”...but I am pretty much sure there would be much more insanely random ones that I don’t know of. I admire him most for his creativity and commitment he puts to stuff he likes doing. A smart worker, he can do wonders in a short span of time...yea he does have this super human ability to do a lot of stuff in a jiffy. You are gonna go places in life dude...all the best!!...LIVI T KOSHY Bose, Having known you for so long now( 7 years :D), it’s all the more tough to write about you. Somehow, i have never been able to associate you with IIM Indore, you will always remain my DCE-COE best friend to me. Since DCE times, you have always been there for me.I can confide anything in you without the fear of you being judgmental about it and that’s the best part about our friendship. Over these 7 years that i have known you, you have really evolved into a much more mature, sensible and balanced personality. and Yet, you are the same when it comes to committing the most silly blunders that no one can think of, cracking random PJs, coming up with eccentric ideas, remembering to study before 2 hours from the start of exam, solving & creating puzzles( mist in dce and klueless in indore) and last but not the least getting your heart bruised by...(need not complete) :P. You are a unique piece with an uncommon sense of logic. I am so glad we came to the same college. All the best for the future bose. We will make sure we talk every week( which somehow didnt happen here). Stay blessed :) :)...AANCHAL GOYAL What a start to IIM Indore..There it was you at the other end during the bakra interview for alum com!! I still remember how you grilled me during that interview and how funny my answers were also to your questions!! It was quite hilarious. :P ( 5% plus minus , alum strength of IIM-I etc.) However u weren’t so khadoos n strict as you showed. You have given me guidance in whatever issues I had, helped me a lot (in fact ‘help’ would be a very small word). An extremely talented person, having a lethal combination of knowledge in both fin and marketing !! Wish you all the very best for your future.. take care.. :) PS: your Bengali is very sweet unlike of what you think. !! :D...MAJUMDAR ARCHITA

Had Ishan not been in IIM-I 2012-14 batch, there’s an extremely high probability of me landing up in the 2013-15 batch, or even beyond. And I kid you not. Accounting se Marketing se Competitions, you name it, Ishan helped me out with it. Being a complete outsider to all things MBA (with no pre-arrival research on what the hell an MBA’s all about), this chap and Apal were the only 2 folks I could rely on for all sorts of gyaan. Before the seniors, came these 2! Arguably one of the smartest, most helpful and fun fellow I’ve ever met. His jokes can cause cranial nerve damage, but they are a part of the IRK package, and you HAVE to live with it. Aware of my erratic-borderline nonsensical behavior, the fact that he’s still been the same person he was on day one, speaks volumes about him. On that note, who the hell calls you IRK man? Maybe the folks at DB will! :P My friend, you’re heading on to great things in life. Stay unchanged (highly improbable, but if you can’t, well, who can?), keep that humor and humility around. I wish you the best, for you truly deserve nothing less. Enjoy! :)...PARTH KAPOOR The reason I got into IIM in the first place, the reason for most of the good things that have happened to me here, and the reason for my getting placed- there’s no one I owe more than IRK(I feel he secretly likes SRK to have adopted such a name). We go back a long time and have had truckloads of fun, frivole and laughter together, from Beach trips to Goa and Kashid, to our Fest escapades in Mumbai and Bangalore to the HOP/RIP trips. Scientists have said that you should always have someone in your group which you admire-and I do admire a hell lot of things about him, from his Monopoly playing skills to his Cooking to his Techie-ness, A person who’ll always stand for his friends and my word, isn’t he selfless(not many of us have a natural inclination to think about others before ourselves). He may not admit it but he’s quite a Softie :P (which is quite a good thing). I am sure he’ll charm his employers at Deutsche Bank with his extraordinarily good looks and become the greatest banker there was before becoming an entrepreneur and finally ending up as a Restaurant owner in Hawaii (no reason behind the choice of the place). I sincerely hope our friendship endures the test of time and if I find myself jobless, I can knock on your door for shelter :P. Finally, I would certainly want you to visit my hometown just to show you that “Bihar ke log chalti Train par pathar nahi phekte”! :-D ...APAL Ishan is one of the nicest and most humble guys you would come across....Yes, certainly Batch Rank close to the Top 10 is immensely credible but what stands him apart according to me is the confidence he exudes....He may be right, he may be wrong but he puts his views across with such aplomb that you can’t help but take notice...We have bonded over cricket and tennis sessions and of course, the infamous Innoversant Live project :P Wish you all the success in life, bro and stay in touch :)...RUDRASHIS ROY

You know me in and out and vice versa. The times we spent, the jokes that only we can understand, critisizing each other for small things, and most importantly sharing the stupidest thoughts without even thinking once. I have found a partner in you for every activity in this campus, and hell yeah we became colleagues as well. Cheers for the great life and the memories we will create in future :) ...Parag Jain

JP, where the hell were you? Came to be friends with you so late, 5th and 6th term of college. But then, the more I come to know you, the more I wonder how brilliant a guy you are. Yes, you are a superb designer. But the way you take on challenges, pressure situations, with a calm and composed head, always being optimistic is something, we all can learn from you.You approach things in such a free flowing manner that makes me confident that you will go to great heights in career ahead. Hope to be friends after the college as well....ARPIT TANDON Three words dude- Dedicated, sincere and funny...a rare combination u are. the sort of guy who will always be there when one needs a helping hand. A good company in conversations. Well the two years tough we’ve met for only very few times you will be an everlasting memory to me. Hope to stay in touch ...PULI HARICHANDAN Putta!!... Id describe you as the go to guy for anything . I mean anything...... a pleasing character that id come across in my life, rare to find, experiences of life a ton ... Id say no match for you ..... you own your designs and the effort that you you put and the dedication levels that you maintain and the effort that you place are unmatchable... its been an honor to have met a friend like you ... would cherish all the moments we have had buddy......GALI STEPHEN STANLEY Jags! Term 1 Group 1, definitely something memorable! You’re easily one of the nicest guys I have met on campus da. Incredibly creative, patient, calm and collected... Will recall our very public face-palm while presenting in front of at least half of both PGP1 and PGP2 :D Also the time we were running in the rain with the GPS on and trying to figure out where Chef’s Alcove was in utter darkness! :D Cheers and stay in touch!...Avinash Chidambar Jagadeesh! The tech freak! You can ask any advice on technology from this guy and he will surely help you out. It was good getting to know you- your sincerity and dedication is amazing.

Itâ??s always so easy to speak about anything and everything though you end up pulling our leg every time. You have got a good sense of humour and that come off with ease. You always seem like this responsible elder brother who always have a perspective on everything and help us out with the same. Hope all your dreams come true and wish you the best for your future with Sam ï?? ...ANUSHA BEESETTI

The go-to photographer of our batch. Whether it be the section party photos or the last day of term 1 photos or committee photo-shoots, Jaipal would be the man to refer to (I would often refer to him as Jaipyal Mandal, but that would be on purpose) :P A soft spoken guy who has his own share of low-profile parties quite regularly. And clearly, one of the most hilarious people after getting drunk, whether it be his dance moves or his conduct :D We had a party on our last day at Term 1 and that was when I talked candidly to him, and while I always knew he was soft spoken, I also realized him to be easy-going and open minded. Was nice interacting with you here. Stay blessed and have fun :)...ISHAN BOSE JP...one of my first friends in college and one of the best ones for life :) A simple guy who loves his life and wishes to spread this love all around ;) :P A soft spoken person and a ghazal and sufi lover.

We became friends during the HOP trip....he has this wacky sense of humour which he is immensely proud of and has this typical Hyderabadi dialect which rings in the ears.... dunno why he is extremely skeptical of his own abilities but that makes him work hard as well....he sort of brings all his nervous excitement and energy to the fore on the D-Day (read: Airtel Zonals) and absolutely kills it. I have a great time pulling his leg and hope to continue to do it :D Wish you all the success in life, bro...show Airtel what they are missing!...RUDRASHIS ROY

My first friend in campus. Will never forget how unaware u werr of certain thingsâ?¦how I used to tell ..oops sry teach u like a kid :P â?¦ I will never forget how u cried on getting first *wink* card (which turn out to be a prank later onâ?¦thank god)â?¦Will never forget how we hide ourselves in ur room just to show the other person that u r not in rumâ?¦.:P n how we taunt each other that finance is bad or HR is bad..:P ...all those fun gossips and sharing lifeâ?¦vl always miss your innocence and sweetnessâ?¦ Stay blessed and stay in touchâ?¦. keep smilingâ?¦will miss youâ?¦.with lots and tons of loveâ?¦. <3...AASHIMA SAINI Hello j-Yo-thi :D Let me start off by listing a couple of things you missed out in your post on my profile: - Our wacky inventions and the self-help book titles we planned to publish; Write them down somewhere, they could prove to be ultimate money making machines The ‘post-depressing-quiz/exam/lunch/dinner’ ice-creams we had Now for my sincere apologies - For corrupting you and disturbing you time and again with my incessant pings - For making you an accessory to my YouTube addiction (head swaps and awful songs and what not) - For tempting you with images of delicious looking food thus making it harder to eat the one in Mess - For the bulleted format of this post ( i’ve just finished with a powerpoint based assignment :P) And now for the Thank You notes - Thank you for being the smart and intelligent person you are and helping me out in all matters whether important or mundane (drafting e-mails :P ) - For being a patient listener and hearing out all the versions of my long-winded tales - For being a wonderful friend and beating some sense into me when i was being sulky or stupid I would’ve asked you to help me figure out a proper way to end this post :P... Now you’ll just have to make do with random “All the Best” wishes.So here’s wishing the best for your future. Good Luck and take care !!...ANUJA BHARGAVA You are a brilliant girl .You are very diligent and helpful , thankyou for all your help and time with me :) ...DEBJANI DEY Miss Type A! A classic example of type A personality- organized, meticulous, methodicalâ?¦. Your room is probably the benchmark for absolute neatness in J Block.The way you balance your time is admirable.

SHREYA TANDON Jyot’h’i ! :D I still think you are from South ! :D :D There is always a fun side of serious people like u (and me :P)..and there are a few lucky ones who are able to pierce into that zone. I have been that lucky person :P. We share common humor and limitations (HOP) that is what connects us. I don’t want t write about brilliance etc (comments above and below will sufficiently capture that). I wish u all the very best for the bright future that u r going to have ! God Bless.

Goots!! I thought you are a fresher came to IIM indore straight after college. Even now many will be surprised to know that you have 3 years experience. The one which made me close to you is the domain which we worked on. AeroSpace. No company cares :(. So I got another person to crib on the same topic :). And also we used to come to you before the exams. Slowly we got regular to dinner and it was fun targeting Harish and sometimes you. I think we have our special lingo which Harish doesn’t understand much. You seem very sincere and decent in the initial days. But the more we know you, the naughty side of your talks comes out. We( Prabhu, Putta and me) laugh a lot whenever we see you at breakfast and you know the reason why :) I always cherish our conversations, discussions and gossips on most of the random things ( theta, delta, gamma, alpha ..). you are brilliant and very good at numbers. Have a great life buddy. keep in touch !!...SURESH MALLULA Goutham..fun to hang out with but adamant sometimes :P Donâ??t remember when we started to get along.. didnâ??t know you guys during the first week.. while you were doing bakra, I was chilling in my room :P But it has been a memorable journey since then :) He is one of the richest guys in the campus.. yet very simple.. prefers bus over cab.. Even though he owns apartments in Hyderabad, he had to adjust in this tiny room of his for 2 years.. feeling very sad for him :( very conscious about his diet.. will check his weight almost everyday :P doesn’t like to be alone except during night :P now the academic part.. QT topper, fin king.. loves economics.. He has all it takes to become the RBI chairman.. lot of fun moments.. teasing harish especially about this technology skills :P and some well kept secrets ;) also.. we have debated a lot.. Wish you get the nod from both the sides soon for your marriage :) All the best and KEEP IN TOUCH!!...B.NIRUN Gootle, Saale, Kutte, are some of his default words. A Person full of unparliamentary words. ..Though a good person to chat with. His humbleness and the way he mingle with us in spite of being a topper is lauding. A true team player of Totti Gang which comprises of Harish, Nirun and himself...Punctuality cannot be well defined wihout him...Everything is done on time or before time ...Hope u have a prosperous life ahead..:)...POTTI RAJESH My first impression of you is that you are an intelligent and responsible person and I was very true...your composure and dedication always amazed me... I like the expressions on your face while you utter those words “gootle” etc., I cherish all the interactions with you... the group online quizzes..mocking harish...many more...You have a great path ahead and I know you will rock it....Cheers..!...AMBATI AVINASH

Hi, I’m not sure you expected this testimony but yet I owe you one! For being a sport, a nice friend and a really good person! Didn’t get a lot of chance to know the awesome person that people claim u to be! :P :P For the little I know about you, I could vouch for you being a very sweet and a nice guy! :) To the great future ahead of you karthik, cheers!! :) :)...Nivetha AIESEC was a formal platform through which I knew you better... And I found that you are this calm n composed, chilled out guy. one person that people can gel with, easily... you don’t break ur head over petty things or get into any controversies. You had kept me good company when we traveled together and I enjoyed my conversations with you . Being a cool leader that you are, I am sure that all you would ace in your corporate life. :) Stay in touch :)...V. DARSHANA Yours is probably the toughest testimonials I’ve had to write. You are so many things packed into one person and I know this testimonial is not going to do justice to the amazing friend that you are. When I first came here, I thought everyone here was so competitive, And then during Alumcom elections, I met you. When I was struggling to ask for votes, you campaigned for the both of us. I was so touched that a person could sense my apprehensions and could campaign for a stranger vying for the same spot. You are way more mature, balanced and talented than you give yourself credit for. You’ve always known just the right things to say.. One of those people whose confidence in me has made the toughest decisions easy. Thanks for being an awesome friend.. Stay in touch!...S KANCHANA Anastasia :D :D :D Lol!!!! Those were fun days !!! But there is nothing I could say to describe what you mean to me, so I am not even gonna try. But as one of the few people who really understands me (probably the only one :D ), you already know how I feel about you. Being more experienced I thought at the beginning of our journey at IIM Indore that I would be the one who would be helping you around and passing on some enlightenment. But it has been the exact opposite. I have learnt so much about everything under the sky from you. Thank you for putting up with my unrelenting cynicism and sarcasm. Stay exactly the same - dont change !!! You and I shouldnt even be writing testimonials for each other, but what to do I am bored :D...DARSHAN.SUBASH Karthik - I remember you asking me advise on choosing between IIM Indore and Musigma. I am not sure what you think of my advice right now :D One of the first guys I met at Rendezvous - we were the only guys on the street in front of garuda mall wearing a suit :D the highlight moment at iim indore for both of us would have to be the “Bhiva” we had with prof utpal! Wish you all the best in your future and do keep in touch :)...KARTHIK HARIHARAN

Kaaayyy (or shud i say Osi :-P) ... though it took some time to become friends, u soon became my best friend from Section E ... Starting from the seat u used to reserve for me in class, to the endless chocolates uve given me (after I beg n beg :-P), right upto the random whatsapp conversations (no, those emoticons WERE NOT copyrighted by u !!), we had some fun times together ... Ur one of the quietest and and most down to earth persons I know, with an extremely keen eye for detail (I cant globe wid u around :-P) ... Extremely lazy, u share the same love for cartoons which I have ... I seriously enjoyed pulling ur leg about ur age, ur “dentures” and what not :-P .... Stay happy in life and remember, Chicken is the tastiest food in the world ... U shud taste it sometime :-P ... Do stay in touch !!...SWAROOP S SHENOI The very first time we met, I could sense the sincerity and simplicity in punyatha and wanted to be friends with her. Fortunately that one day when you came for breakfast with us and we went on a visit to TI, all of us became a group. I love you for your ability to be so genuine, sticking to your principles, emotionally strong and forbearance. I will love you more if you can be less quiet, more initiative taking and assertive. Although, you are mature and patient, but from inside, you are a little kid who is fun-loving and stubborn. I would want these childlike qualities of you to come on surface too. Thoda girly ho jao na plz..you have a very pretty face and awesome hair. Only if you could pay a bit more attention to them. As a friend, you have never disappointed me. You have always been there for me and have understood things without my saying. You have been thoroughly supportive and helpful in these entire 2 years. A fin champ but too lazy to put in that extra effort. I will miss you..our dinner sessions..your constant bickering about my phone ringing all the time. We will meet frequently despite what part of India we be in. All the best for everything. Dont worry about anything..you are a brave girl and will be very successful in life. God bless you :) ...AANCHAL GOYAL Bandarr! That is what she calls everybody ï?? And this has to go public: She talks a lot, be it movies, dinner, while playing UNO, and even during the climax scenes of Sherlock! Yea, a hell lot! So I understand not many know her that well, so it would be upon me to unravel the secrets of this mysterious woman. She is one of the most expressive people I have ever met, a girl who has a unique facial expression for every moment, a different onomatopoeia for every mood! A series fan, who would prefer sleeping with the headphones on. She just has to always knowâ?¦be it understanding what impact would quantitative easing would have on the Hollywood release dates or why would Mr. X be dating Ms. Y! A person who truly believes in having everything within her reach ï??. Yes, I admit, handling her is tough. She looks small and quiet, but one must always be weary of the quietness before the storm! Toofanmail! And never try to mess with her before an exam or assignment submission! Having said that, I would have to say some good things about her. Hell hath no fury than Punyatha â?¦you know whatï?? So, here is what I think of her: A girl who comes back. She will never leave the side of a friend, no matter how much one goes away from her. She will fight with you but at the same time come over to make up. She would try to manage time, so as to give all her friends equal time. She is one person who always knows when you need a hug. ï?? You have been one of the best things that have happened to me in the past two years dear. Will always be around to tolerate all your nakhras! Always stay happy...NATASHA ARUN KUMAR

I wonder if this space would be enough for penning down an account on you. Nevertheless, would try my best. Iâ??ve known you long before I had come here but my entire perspective on you changed only after getting to know here. Within a few days, you completely changed the notion of a calm, simple girl I had of you into a cheerful, happy go-lucky girl with whom anybody would love to be friends with. The best part of you is that you are always at peace with your mind in spite of many worries and you rarely break down. And I love how patiently you deal with everything; be it explaining things or cooking or working on assignments, I wish I could be like that. And I can never thank enough for all your tolerance whenever I panicked and got onto your nerves. I have always admired you for your eagerness to be a part of every happening thing that goes around you. Talking about your excitement, it has no bounds! Our RIP and HOP trips are exemplary for the same. Talking about your knack for learning and memory, you know the confidence we have in you. Itâ??s absolutely amazing the way your brain processes everything. You are one girl truly born for Finance.... You know me in and out and have always stood by my side..I have never imagined that I would make a friend like you within a span of two years. What I write in this yearbook is more of a memory but being friends with you cannot be simply written off as just one memorable thing; itâ??s still and always want it to be in the present and ...Anyways, have a smashing future. Love you a lot....ANUSHA BEESETTI I guess you got your “Tell me about yourself” bang on when you said “an ever smiling girl”. If there is something called “fast track” friendship, I would say we got it right. We bonded over funny telugu songs, hilarious comedy sequences and of course our own home grown ridiculous jokes. Even before I got to know you, I remember telling a friend of mine that you were one of the most cheerful people I have ever met. Once I got to know you, I would revise that to the most “cheerful and funny”. A kid by all means - thought process, taste and size! But you have pleasantly surprised me a lot of times with your nurturing instinct. Ok, before you start saying “Te de de de dew.. babu chitti!”, I better end my testimonial. I would also remember you for one last thing - the only person I have known who doesn’t need to learn swimming because you float on water :P. It was a pleasure to have known you “born genius” :P...M DIVYA DEEPTHI Deeptiiiiiii... I seriously at times wonder.. How cum you are in IIM I.. You are a total different league girl..seriously you are one of the best students i have seen here .. Your fighting spirit & your dedication amazes me..you are really sweet & warm & with the heart of a lil sweet kid.. I’ll always remember our sweet little chats & thanks for all the advice & guidance you gave me.. Let me also tell you.. you are the FINANCE QUEEN:)Thanks for putting up with me for the last few days .. they were quite hectic.. Wish you all the very best for your future.. Keep smiling , have fun..& be special as always:):):)...MUNNANGI SREE MEGHANA

Parth, you are the most insane person I have ever seen. Initially, I used to think that you use such fancy words for ‘about me’ for being different but now I know, every word written in the section is true to the core. But that I think is the quality I will admire the most about you, the quality of being true to yourself as well as those around you. I know that behind that demented, psychotic, unhinged, outright maniac etc. lies an innocent, clear hearted and a fun loving guy. You are supremely focussed and are unabashed by any criticism that comes in way of achieving your goals. You are a go-getter and your perseverance is something that I vouch for. You will still be working even when others have stopped working and started chilling. Nevertheless, you are one of the closest friends I have ever had and I have had an amazing time with you, lending a shoulder for you to crib about the world, drinking with you and participating and winning competitions with you. All I can say is you are one of the rarest pure hearted people that I have come across. Be good and show the world your nice side also. :P i am sure they will love it. :) I don’t need to wish you luck for your future because I know you will be kick-ass in whatever you do. Just stay connected.wherever you are (including your Jhabua zilla) :) Cheers to all the good times we had and to the future. :) ...SWATI VERMA I can go about writing Parth did this or Parth did that but I am sure I have given him enough of that in the past 1 year ï?? So here I am just gonna write what I have really learnt from him. I have had the opportunity to observe and interact with Parth in course of work, on exchange, in parties (one of which is legendary), on trips (one of which is even more legendary btw :D ) and in all the random stuff that good friends do. The one thing that is common in all is his undeniable â??Passionâ?? for everything he does. Passion is a highly misused or abused word in our circles but I can never use this word more aptly on anyone else than Parth. He really puts his 100% into everything from studies to sports to even girls :P He puts in so much into everything he does that sometimes it becomes beyond comprehension of aam junta like me who are much less attached and driven about the things we do. Probably thatâ??s why his emotions and thoughts are right there on the surface for you to see. I really admire Parth for what he symbolises and hope that I put even half the effort and soul that he puts into things that matter. He has been a truly loyal friend to everyone on campus and his actions make sure you do feel the same everyday. I am sure you will be one of the most successful people in our group Parth. ï?? ...SURABATHUNI PALLAV Parthaaaa mere bhaii...have no words to describe your wholesomeness. You’re a great marketer, kickass at convincing people, a brilliant singer :P all in all an awesome guy :) I remember working with you in Interrobang and trust me dude you were the one I enjoyed working with most on campus. Ideas just came out like shit (thrust of the shit not the smell :P) That was one competition that I won’t regret loosing because I had an awesome time and got to learn a lot from you. The one thing that makes you stand apart from others is your passion - be it anything travelling, marketing, drinking :P lol. Jokes apart, but I’ve always had a kickass time when you’ve been around. You have a great sense of humor. You’re extremely dynamic and talented and I’m sure you’ll make it big in life. All the best bro \m/...SIDDHARTH MATHUR

Paaji ~ a perfect all-rounder in our batch....Actively involved in sports and also among the toppers in class...

Cheers!!!!...KARAN RATHOD I would say our education system is flawed for letting a guy to score so high even after sleeping 12 hrs average a day :P.Sometimes in the process of waking him up from sleep we end up waking people in other blocks also.He loves chicken biriyani but always fails to place the Nafees order before deadline.He is gifted with extra ordinary intelligence and an aptitude for finance.He can beat the hard-core fin guys in the campus by spending less than half the time they do on preparation. He could be one of the first in our batch to make CFO of a company. Best of luck for you..:-)...ALI MONISH P E I bet anyone to be able to take a pic of him without his hands in his pocket :D Poora 2nd year nikal gaya aur aisa ek bhi pic nahi mil paya :P This guy is crazy!

You would always be looking out to play pranks and pull people’s leg and I was definitely at the receiving end several times. But the trip wouldn’t have been so great without your wit and comments. I enjoyed following you on the shortcuts on the trek. You make any place so much more lively. It was great knowing you and I wish you the best in life. ...VRITIKA RAWAL A complete football freak..... known for his one liners and epic comedy timing......I call him Karan Paaji. but I can’t match the nicknames you come up with for every single person. Always happy guy wearing a consistent smile on his face no matter whatever happens. Tried a lot but could not change your ultimate eternal pose in every photo of yours “his hands in his pocket” whether he walks, sit, stand nd watever.. :-P His liveliness, frank, cool attitude has made you my best friend.

Faack. Teri meri aur Abhish ki wavelength ek hi level pe hai. Saath me aa gaye toh akhand bakchodi hoti hi hai hamesha. You are such a great writer, winning award with every article. Very sharp and clever, pointer dekhlo bhaisahab ka. Woh bhi itni bakar karne ke baad. And yet so soft spoken, humble and caring that it just takes a moment for someone to become your admirer.

my next door neighbor, he is an extremely friendly and helpful guy.

A ‘dedicated’ messcom guy, he gets pretty irritated when teased about it but still tries to do his job well.

We have been very good friends since very beginning and have spent great times in last two years (Maggie in ur room, pune trip, RIP, HOP, and many things to write).

His loud weird laugh needs a special mention.Clean at heart, he is a committed guy (committed to people (pun intended) and to his work!).He is very creative and has played a pivotal role in coming up with the most weird and funny nicknames of our group mates.All his activities has that desi touch which is amusing at times...

Re, one of the toughest tasks on campus for me has been to wake you up from sleep. Man, you sleep like a complete kumbhkaran. I started getting calls from multiple sources to tell me to wake you up but your sleeping skills at odd hours just amaze me. :P One other cool thing about you is your eating disorder. I still can’t believe how you manage to not eat for days. :P Only oxymoron come to my mind when I think of you, your order in chaos, your paranoid yet optimistic, funny in serious situations, you work the best for things you crib about the most. :P and lots more. So much memories I have of you, you have been a perfect partner to laugh with esp. in awkward situations. I have laughed out on almost all silly,serious,random things with you and having you as a neighbour was completely worth it. I hope to continue with such good times for a long time to come.You rock. Lots of love. :)...SWATI VERMA I know you are probably dreading what is going to follow after this line, considering it’s written by me - heads up, I will try to be nice for a change :) Skybar, it was called if I am not mistaken. That was the lame sports bar (which we never went back to) where we watched the Wimbledon semi-final and it was the first time we met. After that you guys went shopping and I offered to carry one bag and you said wait, take all three :) Since then, as you said, you’ve liked me 75% of the time and I’ll take that as a win. You’re super fun to be around whether it’s been about not saying please (else you will refuse to do something) or just the random fights we had, every waking minute has been a complete joy. I really wish we had won a competition together, but I know from working with you that you know your stuff and are really dedicated once you commit to something. More importantly, the fun we’ve had outside college has been simply brilliant. HOP was awesome and I will never forget you clinging on to Bayyan’s (if that’s how his name is spelt) bag and climbing up. Mercuri-i :D With all the random meetings and cool parties. Rajasthan happened only because of you and it was just as awesome as you are! I know I maybe annoying, mean and a bit of a pain but I tend to do that to only people I am really comfortable with and who I actually do care about. Here’s to this friendship never ending and here’s to me trying my level best to improve that 75% on the liking scale :)...VIVIAN PAUL GONSALVES On a level of ‘Re-ndomness’ which is beyond the confines that the Earth imposes on us mortals, there is no one I can more comfortably relate to than Re.With or without being under the influence, I think we could go on talking with absolutely no train of thought and pick up automatically the next day from where we stopped. Incredibly quirky, with stark extremes of high enthu and impossible laziness, Re you’re a bunch of contradictions that would never suit anyone else :) Always vocal and open about her views, Re’s mannerisms are very contagious and within days you would have random people saying “Appa” “Allah” and “Ayyo”.Her cycling skills are legendary and deserve a testimonial by itself.Wish we could spend more time on campus.Bu there is always Mumbai to catch up on missed times Kavya !. PS. Atleast once I wanted to use your name....HARSHVARDHAN V

Keerthi and I have been friends right from term 1. Our friendship grew stronger after RIP and has been blooming since then. We have spent some of the best moments together, be it in section parties, RIP, HOP, our adda behind the FPM block or on our whatsapp group. She is a fun-loving girl who takes unnecessary tension at times. She is one friend I can really count on. It was great knowing you. Wishing you all the luck in future. Shall always stay in touch. ...BHANTI PRATIKSHA DEEPAK We became friends right in the first term (being in the same section) and I have embarked upon some amazing experiences with you and bunty. I cannot forget the fun we had in RIP, HOP or the section parties. I always found you to be a very congenial and fun loving person. I would especially remember the way we would impersonate your iconic “What re” (Rahul actually did the best impersonation).

And someone from whom I picked up the habit to say”Kuch bi rrranddomm” in every context whatsoever :D First year was really fun with you- our gossips, online shopping, discussions on clothes and accessories etc. This journey would not have been as much fun without your presence. Thank you for being such a great company. wish to stay in touch even after IIM Indore. I wish you all the very best for future :) Cheers!...SONAKSHI BEHL Hey Kitty! We have shared the most colorful friendship. We have laughed together, cried together, fought so many times and patched up, and have shared all our good and bad moments. I remember how you came to my room and cheered me up during placements and so many other times. You are a patient listener and a wonderful friend. Keep smiling, tension kam lo, and apni shrill awaz se humein bulate raho..love you :)...THAKUR ANSHU MANOJ

Guess I am the first one to write for you. One of the first persons I met as part of Bakra team... A very sensible guy, in fact one of the most sensible guy on campus. Your views on everything was always balanced. A very down-to-earth person too. I have always loved to interact with you, and hope to continue this interaction even in future. I can say-Tu mera Bhai hai.. :P Keep in touch Paaji.......SHAUNAK VISHWAKARMA Khagesh and I got to know each other while playing mobile games in the last row during the first year.. He is the only person who kept telling me Parth you have the potential to do well.. don’t waste it but i never took that seriously.. :D he is the most sensible, hard-working guy i have met on the campus who is also chilled out and easy going.. I hope you do get to drive a Mercedes on German freeways one day.. keep working towards you dream.. :).. Best of luck.. Keep in touch. :)...Parth Kosada Khagesh Bhai, you are the voice of sanity whenever everyone else is going apeshit. Easily the most respected person among our group of friends. Manku’s protector and Paaji’s guide during heated situations. I remember meeting you in Rendezvous and thinking this is a very serious guy, but you proved to be quite the opposite. FIFA games in your room are a source of great enjoyment I remember seeing you helping Paaji with his huge bags the first day we came to campus, and you ended up being his room neighbour :) Really sorry for the morning I dragged you out of bed to take you to Omkareshwar .....Always maintain your sunny disposition and keep in touch...ARINDAM MAJUMDAR We had awesome fun in the last row :) I will remember you as one of the most hardworking and sincere person. I am happy that you cared a lot about others. I will try to follow your advice on reducing time on FB,cricket :P :D . I really appreciate your gesture of walking up to me to calm me down during HOP.It was really great talking to you and getting to know a lot about Punjab and Maruthi :) My best wishes for your future Khagesh :) Keep in touch :) ...KAVINKUMAR R Khagesh... He rarely opens his mouth unnecessarily, he always stay calm and very thoughtful about whatever he do or does. He is a person with high principle, strong moral standard and high integrity. Although he did not sleep much in the class like me, I really enjoy sitting beside him for 1 straight year. His CP is always profoundly original and deeply thought out. We likes to play jokes and has a true sense of humor. :) I wish him all the luck for his career and all the hapines in life. ...VANLALROSIAMA RALTE We have been good friends from the first term when we were in the same group..We used to sit for hours working and doing bakar:) during the assignments. A very friendly and approachable person he is very calm and composed.His views are very balanced and sensible.. Enjoys partying and good with bakchodiâ?¦.You would definitely do well in future and I wish you the very best..Keep in touch..:)...ATISHAY KUMAR JAIN

Amol or the Robot-Man ( as Abhishek puts it ) is one of the most sincere and dedicated person I have ever known. Amol usually prefers to be quiet and minds his own business.

Though I maybe last (or non-existent) in your priority list I am going to at least be the first one to write something in your yearbook! I will never forget how troubled you looked outside the printer room before that first MAC-I assignment. Then how you started accumulating treats (which, by the way, I still have not redeemed). I’ve had a lot of fun bullying you over the last couple of years and I can’t believe you actually put up with my nonsense. I’ll see you in Mumbai (if you’re not too busy with your priorities then). I’ll take those treats soon :) Don’t change at all, you’re pretty cool as it is ;)...VIVIAN PAUL GONSALVES As soon as you hear Sonika, you picture this bubbly girl jumping up and down, excitedly trying to tell you something which has made a super duper happy and shouting, “ Patta hai, patta hai!!”. She has a close world of friends and coincidentally, they are all the special Vs of the college. I think you are the most expressive person I have ever met, and at times displaying more facial expressions than my Whatsapp’s emoticon pack!! You are the bestest when it comes to deciding on what to eat - I was introduced to Arrabbiata Pasta, Waffles and Pancakes! You have a sense of fashion like no other - picking the right dresses, you are absolutely amazing, There are 3 things which she is mad about in Indore - Maggi, Walks and Jai - baaki I cant write, she will kill me :P Oh yaaa, she hates Finance, so quick advise to all, Dont ask her about her job, just location :D If you are reading this, msg me its already been too long!!...VIDUSH ARYA I must really thank Variksh for convincing you to come here coz these two years have been truly enjoyable because of you. With our common love for Mumbai, chocolates and all things good we did hit it off well together. You are a great friend who has always been there when I needed you-from wake up calls to other important stuff. It has been amusing to listen to you recount your day. Finally, it’s unfair to you if I dont mention your obsession with maggi, coffee and nutella. I wish you a great life in Mumbai :P PS: I am glad that finally over two years we atleast attended one common class-B2B....VRITIKA RAWAL Honestly, what would i have done without you! You bring sunshine and smiles wherever you go! Friend, neighbour, confidante..always smiling and making me smile! I have spent the most adorable moments with you..gossiping in your room..watching you get ‘high’ over coffee and strawberry milkshake, and even line maroing on you ;)May you always keep smiling and spreading smiles like you do..love you :)...THAKUR ANSHU MANOJ “Karuna Sonika!”, Those words of Jayasimha still echo in my ears sometimes. Not that he did not come up with other such specialties, it’s just that I could get to know you so well that makes it special for me and is etched in my memory. The countless hours of fun we had without doing almost any work (apart from perhaps one Sabita Assignmnet), the shoulder that you lent to a crying me on one of these Raymond visits to Indore, the Girls joke, the Turakhia SOng, all of these are beautiful memories that’ll stay with me forever!

I first met Kiran during the infamous Bakra. I didnâ??t think much of the lurking-in-thedark-stalkerish-creepy Mr. Radhakrishnan at all! And he was from the â??most lovedâ?? committee of them all to boot. No. At first sight, I did not like Kiran VR in fact I borderline despised â??His Dudenessâ??. Music, poems, memeâ??s, gossip, gossip, gossip and gossip later, I think it is safe to say I did a 180 on that feeling. Kiran is the go-to-guy of all things stalking, gossip, memes, weird convoluted Klueless levels, whoâ??s dating who, wit and charm (I know this makes you sound not straight but I think itâ??s time you got out of the closet) B**** weâ??ve had some awesome times. Weâ??ve shared way too many laughs. And weâ??ve bitched about way too many people. Someday Karma is going to catch up to us. And Iâ??m pretty sure weâ??d laugh at that too. Iâ??ll even forgive you for not letting me keep Leon. I promise to keep you updated on all the happenings in college after you leave and maybe Iâ??ll even miss you (maybe. M.a.y.b.e.). I hope you have an awesome future ahead and I hope you DO NOT have letting go issues like some people we know. Hereâ??s looking at you, kid. ...ADITI ROYAL REBELLO Revered Kiran (always begin with the salutation, right? :P) You have been one of my closest friends on the campus. You have been a fantastic secy and an even more fantastic colleague and friend. Someday I wish I can have the same level of understanding that you exuberate. I have always admired you for your knowledge. You can talk about any topic under the sun and beyond. You have always been a fun person to hang out with be it the MC parties or our Himalayan adventures (or misadventures). There are countless memories (from bhojpuri dumb-charades and MC bakar sessions to the sitcom tympass) that have become the beacon of my Planet-I journey. I am sure I would hear about your independent venture in the near future (remember the stipulates to five years from now). Wish you a great career ahead. Hasta la vista, baby! Yours Sarcastically :P...ANAND MALHOTRA Kiran, Iâ??m so glad we are part of Klueless! Somehow K brought together this amazing bunch of people, who it would be otherwise difficult to getâ?¦and we all just kind of gelled in a manner which is so difficult to explain. Itâ??s been amazing working with you and knowing you! Your amazing soundtrack collection and choice in music made our parties rock! Kiran, you are so generous and this is something which is very special about you. You always offered your room for our parties â?? so nobody ever had to ask whr is K partyâ?¦we always know! Thank you for putting up with my crazy drunk self and meeting my demands for Whi**ey! ;) Through K, I also, got to know about some other sides of yours â?? you write wonderfully and Iâ??m sure, your writing will bring you accolades! Kiran â?? we must have more crazy parties, even when weâ??re old and bald! And the onus is one you, coz the party will always be in your room! :P...RICHA PODDAR

As unique a person as your name. One of the most genuine, sincere, friendly and considerate guys i have met here- a rarity, specially at a B-school. I still remember at times you would be the only one participating in SM and OB classes- not to earn CP points but only so that the professor doesn’t feel bad or as a saving grace for the section. A very good dancer, always smiling and cheerful. Wishing you all the luck for your future. :)...ROHIT KUMAR GUPTA

Yaar yeh ghadi itni slow kyun chal rahi hai yaar:P 10 years from now you will be : Depends on whether the interviewing org. is a startup or an established one :P If not MBA then : Would have been working happily :P Favourite spot on campus : Tennis court, C Block ground floor Common room, Friend groups on campus : Bakra Assignment, Hangover group :) Vibes group :) n Section C group :) First crush in the institute : Lasting impressions about college : Fun in a nutshell - Bakra(frndz for life) and T-nite(bonding with classmates, still feel we were the most ‘united’ class), cursing Hariya and Ramana, taking adv. of poor Gokhale and Vinaysingh. Lasting impressions about college : IPL- C sec. team. RIP in Datia, Agra, Gwalior!!Internship at Aartech.. 2nd year only about dancevibes team, tennis, placements.

One of the few real ‘dudes’ on campus, Krit is an extremely good dancer and very calm and cool by nature. Remember our random entries in night at his room for AMR assignment but the smiloe would never leave his face. He also very humble and polite, qualities which shall take him to zeniths of success in life....DEBAYAN BISWAS Doshi the dancer.. n i seriously feel dat hes is d best dancer in d campusâ?¦bt ye toh MODESTY ki MAHA-MURTI hn ki manata hi nahi hn.. :P very kind at heart..he wil b der fr u whenever and wherever u want him..fun loving and always ready to help others..dnt knw hw he manages it bt I hv never seen him angry n I admire him fr dat..aur isse sajjan ladka (at 24) maine kahi nahi dekha.. :D :P hes a real athlete, he cn play almost every sport really well..a foodiiee..n yess, my companion in sharing (strictly) veg food wherever v go :P I really hd a good tym wid u here Doshi..i wish u all d best fr ur future.. ï?? n ofcrse v r gonna stay in touch..!!...ABHISHEK N MAHAJAN There are few people whoz purity of heart have struck me, Krit happens to be one of them. With a cool personality and an ever smiling face, hez always willing to lend a helping hand to one and all...never saw him saying a no to anybody. He seems to be a firm believer of “ karm karo phal ki ikcha mat karo” :P. He never gets disheartened and is extremely dedicated & focused..... be it the much talked about AMR assignment, the vibes performances or the placement processes. His phenomenal dancing skills have earned him a big fan following especially among the IPM girls. He eats a lot, though only God knows where all of that goes :P. Despite being so slim,he doesn’t feel cold at all..something that I envy a lot. I need to thank you guys for my birthday celebration and for kinda accepting me :P . Thanx a lot for everything :). Wish you all the very best for your future :) You would soon rise in your career :) and for next year ..enjoy the winter at Delhi :P :P... SHOBHNA SHRUTI KD.. the dancer of Planet I. Our first acquaintance was during Industrial visit. I still remember, I requested you to give me attendance when I wanted to remain absent for one of the IV...and you straight away rejected it. I thought this guy is not co-operative...but it proved to be wrong later on. Since then we have been very good friends. One thing that I noticed is our breakfast, lunch and dinner times matched most of the time...and most of our interactions, gossiping happened in those happy hours. Yeah literally hours...tera aur mera eating speed main bhi synch hai..:P. As a person you are polite and down-to-earth. Tu bhi apunke jaisa ever cheerful, ever smiling and ever happy person hai.....thatâ??s one more synergy between us. I would remember all the moments we had together for the time to come.... Wish you all the best for your career !! Bhulna matt !! P.S. â?? and donâ??t tell everyone about Indore Traffic Police story......Krit â??BHAIYAâ?? aapke jaisa luck hamara kahan..... : ) ...ANIKET YEVALKAR

Came to be friends with you very late, 2nd half of the last term. And I wish, could be friends with you earlier. Cheerful, sporty (tease you a lot, and you never mind), among very few people who can beat me in arguments. But the thing that makes you so different and special is your firmness about your beliefs and not getting carried away by what others are doing. Such mental toughness very few people have got, and you are one of them. Have a great future Amex gal, hopefully will continue to be friends going ahead....ARPIT TANDON Ramya :), I’m not exaggerating when i say that i wouldn’t have survived those two torturous months in Gurgaon without you.I would’ve skipped all dinners had i not been on tiffin duty for you :P Our summer training experiences were quite the polar opposites. You came to know and love your work and i figured out the type of job i was not cut out for :D I remember your reaction after your first day of induction. You came back and said “AmEx people are so good. I wish i get a PPO here”. This was supplemented by you saying “Anuja.. I sooo want a PPO” atleast 3-4 times a week. Any doubts i might have had about you fulfilling this objective vanished when i saw you work so hard and slog away late in the night and even on weekends. Glad for you that you’d be working in your beloved analytics field. Your love for analytics is well renowned and you’re as much a geek as i am for all things analytics. You looked like a kid in a candy store when you showed me that BA assignment :D Wishing you a great life ahead and do stay in touch :)...ANUJA BHARGAVA Looks nerdy, yes. Is she actually nerdy? Not at all. Ramya is one of the nicest person I have ever met. She is confident, hardworking, intelligent and smart. I had the pleasure of working with her during Kalpavriksha and I have seen so many different moods of her that no one can imagine. She is reserve, polite, sweet and calm. She can perform at all levels and she knows how to lead the team. Once you get to know her, you’ll realize how caring and friendly she is. Wishing you all the best for future and I do hope you stay in touch :)... Tushar Gupta First impression I had about you was that of a business woman who came here for a purpose ;). Always in a hurry, has a no for everything and angry eyes that can burn a person :P :P. But now, you have changed my perception with a witty yet beautiful smile, innocent replies when someone pulls your leg, finding happiness in small things and caring for those close to you. Our serious discussions on trivial matters near mess 2 (your favorite :P:P), trying to get equal work from everyone in the group, my long narrations to your short questions (esp. from work ex), tips and tricks for life ;), Nigella Lawson videos, critique sessions and satellite broadcasting :P:P are few things which I would remember. You are a great person to get along and a trusted friend. Keep in touch and hope to cross paths with you again :)...JAGADEESH PUTTA

Kshitij gives a new dimension to words like free-riding, over-acting,laziness and mastikhori. Since the first time I met him I haven’t seen him worry about anything or at least about anything important. At times when he does try to be serious and participate in class, the entire class ends up laughing and cheering. Such is the charm of this person. He has the capability to bring smiles to people’s face wherever he goes. He’s a chalta-firta version of imdb; has something to say about each and every actor in the movie. A 2 hr movie doesn’t end even in 4 hrs given his constant bakar. He’s always the life of a party. God knows how many things he has made people try that they wouldn’t have tried otherwise. Starting from the dance in section wars to the study sessions, late night visits to night mess, fights over washing kettle and making maggi and the student exchange, nothing would have been so much fun had it not been for you. You have been my best friend for the last two years and I wish it would stay the same even after we graduate from here. I am not sure how I am going to manage my work life if you aren’t around to calm me down when I am super stressed. Though you have somehow managed to dodge all assignments during MBA, now you have the job of your dreams. So I am sure you will excel in your career. Here is wishing you lots of luck for your future To my best friend... Cheers :)...HIMAKSHI GUPTA Intern of the Year. Banana Shake. Delhi time was one that was well spent. House searching, site visits, weird places to eat and the Paranthawala outside the office, we have shared some great memories in the burning heat of Delhi. Now that you are getting into the field of your choice, I am looking forward to see you reach Iconic Heights. Have a successful career. ...Rishabh Trivedi To some persons knowing them for a long time doesn’t matter ..as u become best friends in little time as u have known them for years and you are one of them..Had awesome booze fun with u on exchange... U r a friend that is frank about what he thinks and one can rely on for anything.. keep enjoying and have great life ahead and excel in ur dream role in ur job ......RAHUL KUMAR CHOUDHRY Bhai ka Bhai!!! what to write about you? you are just awesome.. you have been there with me always.. you are a great motivator,. the most energetic yet the laziest person. jitni masti hum logo ne kari hai i dont think yaha kisi ne bhi kari hogi.. har sadi se sadi baat jo kisi ko samajh bhi nahi aat iuspe 15 minute tak haste rehna.. 1st year m har week PD jana.. saari buri aadatein hume ek saath lagi h.. hum bachpan se saath m enjoy karte aaye h.. aur kisne socha tha ki IIM Indore m bhi saath rahenge.. life would have been completely different agar tu yaha nahi hota.. unfortunately i am not drunk warna ye page chhota pad jata.... aur we are brothers we will be meeting each other many times after leaving the campus.. no matter how busy our lives will be aagey bhi hum aise hi masti karte rahenge... i wish you all the happiness in the world.

Expected this to be empty till now because even we struggle to find him in senses half of the time. He is the ultra cool dude. Appears furious but believe me he is one of the most soft hearted and caring person on Earth. One of the nicest human being I have ever encountered... DADDy as we lovingly call him.. he is indeed a father figure... it was always a pleasure to go to punjabi dhaba with you.. Hope to see you soon... Marry soon and throw us one more party... Yours lovingly... NITRKL kids ...ROHAN DUTTA “Kool” - Deep .. Kuldeep is the coolest guy i met in this insti.. I really respect ur humbleness and intelligence.. I still remember the day we arrived in indore and then being allocated the same wing.. i regret not having developed our friendship but i wish we would be buddies for life.. He is the perfect friend who will always be there to support you! He will either be playing AOE or partying on campus. I always envy the fun you had in these 2 years.. Be the way you are and B in touch!...ABHIJIT DAS Kuldeep- He is my Sec D neighbour. We both kept mum while rest of our neighbours would mark their CPs. And then we both would say to each other- “Saale poore course mein 1 CP to maar le!”..I still would make 1/2 attempts, but Kuldeep has never ever opened his mouth in class ever. We would also sleep together in class while Viggy and Ravi would be all up listening and participating! He looks serious, but he is a very calm and friendly guy..always found singing and enjoying! Wish you all the best...Keep in touch! :)...PARAG PODDAR Aaaaaaa Dhating naach...rehle rehle naaa yaar meri aakhiyon mein...vasa re vasa vasa ree.... kalassa kalasala... aj blue hai paani paani paani...tamnche pe discooooo....These songs describe Behera like nothing else can...I have never seen any body as intelligent as this guy...He wont study anything till exam and on exam night he will read all the slides only once and will memorize it..Wot a brain!! He is the entertainer of C-Block :D I dunno how many plants of C-Block garden this guys has destroyed.. Total destruction machine! but a great great friend and will help you under any circumstances. Hats off Behera...Lets rock Bangalore now :D:D ...Nikhil Karanjkar Well..where do I start..there are soo many things which I must say about this guy. He is one of the most chilled out guys I have ever met!...He lives every day like it is his last... I am a much more confident and care-free person today because of the stuff I have learnt being in your company. He is usually crazy, loud and hungry! But Behera is also one of the most intelligent and genuine guys I have come across. He is also extremely supportive and helpful, especially in tough situations. Will miss dancing to all the Desi Songs like â??Gandi Baatâ??, â??Dhating Natchâ?? and â??Sunny Sunnyâ?? after all those crazy trips to RD. Stay just the way you are! You are one helluva Daddy! :)...K KARTHIK

Always easy-going, though somehow, with each day as Infra-Com secy, he has perhaps lost 10-15 of his hair to the point of getting bald finally. Internet was all f****d up through his tenure is another matter, but he did remarkably well in his role, in fact among the few secys who were actually approachable and have worked.:) Looks like the guy who doesn’t give a $#!t about studies and career, but very hard-working and sincere. ATB bro. Wish you do really well and life and be the sport you are, always....Vishal Vyas “Bhai are you ready to invest some money in a business bhai?.....ek saal mein double karke de dunga bhai”.....the guy is a budding business tycoon! ;) He is “THE” go-to person for all types of needs on campus ( I mean all types ;) ) Always helpful, chilled out dude who loves to have fun.He has an uncanny ability to connect with people on Facebook, and perhaps will soon have a world record for most friends made via FB.Loves to discuss matters happening on campus ( and chicks too).....

Friend groups on campus : Sumit Verma n group, Rohit Gupta n group , Anindhya Pandey, Himanshu, Nishant, Eraj First crush in the institute : Lasting impressions about college : passing is even easier than it was during engg... Lasting impressions about college :

Bhai chotu the active member of Denny crane club . i remember this guy carried my bag all the way to the top of HOP and he did in style pehle jo pahucha diya sabko . Bhai HOP was the fun. Guptaji aur tumne to mahol hi bana diya tha . Njjoy d life and best of luck :)... ANKUR JAIN Pocket-Sized Dynamite. Those are the first words that come to my mind when I think of Kumud. What strikes me about him is his acute sense of observation and the quickness with which he can relate it to the vast amounts of literature he avariciously reads. But, when you uncover that first layer, beneath it you find a man who is large hearted and magnanimous in his deeds, and along with it carries with him an undying optimism. When such intelligence and creative spirit is bestowed on an individual, it is an unenviable task for him to reconcile with. In my most sincere prayers, I hope he does find that lost paradise where he will thrive and the winds carry him along. I wish you the best!...SYED ERAJ HASSAN Well read and articulate. He is the Alan Shore of DC club. One of the best Drinking buddies you can have. Chilled out and relaxed. Loves reading a lot. And watching Japanese movies. :P Really enjoyed our times diring HOP. You and Gupta ji made it special for all of us. All the best for the future man. ...NAVTEJ VERMA One of my earliest friends who soon turned into a soul mate. Have shared a lot with you and been your confidant on several occasions. SR-11 was really fun coz you were there. Those TT matches, those long walks around the hostel or to sports complex, life was fun then. One of the funniest things about you is your forgetfulness. Still remember the day when you forgot Himanshu’s room keys on the day we were leaving campus for the term break. Sometimes i feel k 2nd year mein aake hamari friendship ko kisi ki nazar lag gayi. Maybe part of this has to do with your hostel being far from ours and maybe because i didn’t like some of the choices that you made. Really like your sense of humour, your huge database of knowledge about almost everything and your living life king size attitude but what i appreciate most about you is that i can trust you to tell me the truth every time, how much bitter/sweet it may be. I can bank on you whenever i need an honest feedback. Have more faith in yourself and you can get all you want. All The Best!!...ROHIT KUMAR GUPTA

Jajoo- You were the first close friend I had on campus. You are also one of the most intelligent and brilliant guys I came across on campus. And you are still so young! :P Jokes apart, but that was the thing which always stood out about you- As to how you could party the entire night and yet seamlessly score such good marks. You shared my love for Hindi movies and songs, and I could always rely on you to come to watch even the most crass Hindi movies in the theater with me. You were always there in the first year to go out with me when I used to be low and we’ve had some pretty memorable drunken parties :) You should not have gone on foreign exchange, it was more fun here :P Anyway, you have always been a very close friend and you will always be like that. Cheers!...TANMAY LALIT TAPASE Youngest of the lot. We sat next to each other for an entire year and were the reasons for many professorsâ?? agony and frustration:-P. They say with age comes maturity; but you seem to have defied this thumb rule given that you are very matured and sensible. But yes, this age thing reflects in his capacity of drinking certain fluids:-P. Jadoo, you are one the smartest people I have met on the campus and I will always admire you for what you have achieved at such young age. All the best and keep in touch!...GHOLAP GAURAV ANIL Kushal should have been more like a younger brother to me than a friend if you consider his age, but his maturity levels meant that I always treated him as an equal. Having so many common interests meant we were part of almost every group including our internship stay which was memorable in more ways than one. I could go on mentioning things like Football@I Block, watching EPL, you buying unlimited Pringles, our beach house at Alvares, Simply Delicious, Section C seating, DB prep, FIFA in PS3, my Silver Jubilee celebrations:D, RIP and other trips etc and the list would go on. We did miss you during term 5, but we still had several great moments throughout the last couple of years and I am pretty sure we can add on to it in the future. And ya, be ready to read my roommate agreement draft :D ...Deepak Talluri Kushal, you were one of my first friends on campus. I remember congratulating you on getting selected to play for college football team (but you know what happened next :D ). Being in same section we got to interact a lot over first year and well football connected us over the course of second year :). I think you are one of those guys who can snatch victory from any position be it academics or sports. It was surprising to see youngest guy in batch be so mature.:) Just keep up the good work. All the best.!!...SUMANTH J You are such a young achiever. I have never seen you missing any party here, yet you have performed so well academically and otherwise. I respect you for the way you manage so many different things so well. Your modesty has always impressed me at many occasions. You are surprisingly mature for a person your age, and also have the drive to excel at anything you desire. Wishing for a lot of fun and loads of good things ahead! :)...RAJNI RANJAN

One of my favourite people in campus, though due to circumstances couldnâ??t get to interact as much as I would have liked to. I wish him all the success in his future :) ...Deepak Talluri

Jaggi...That’s what we always called you during our internship. I can say I was lucky to have a roommate like you....Very chillax and down to earth. Very few people are so friendly as you are. And those 2 months were the best time we spent together...Be it cricket matches, canteen food at night or our bakar.... Best part...we used to watch same cricket videos and Dexter as well..... Lucky to have a friend like be...be the way you are.... Hope u reach great heights in life... Do invite me in our marriage, and come in mine. Keep in touch.... ...SHAUNAK VISHWAKARMA Jaggi- There is never a dull moment when Jaggi is around. He has the awesomest personality that anyone can have and he will surely make you smile when you are around him. You have always helped me out whenever I needed and have always been there. I’ve learnt from you how to chill and sometimes just let it go; your smile and pleasing nature is contagious. Stay like that always. Cheers! ...TANMAY LALIT TAPASE I actually met this idiot on pagalguy before i came down to IIM Indore. Most chilled out guy and keeps on saying ‘watta man’...It’s good knowing you!...SAI PRASANNA KUMAR LAVU Jaghi -the Ravana.. Ur one of the humble persons i met on campus.. I had a really great time with u at Jamshedpur.. Ur wer helpful when i needed the most.. Be the way u r(keep tht charming smile) and B in Touch!...ABHIJIT DAS Jaggi - I’m no glad I never got to celebrate my birthday on campus only because of this guy :P He is your humble giant. Such a nice guy to talk to and have proper fun. His appearance may set you off but such a sweet guy he is. Very modest and down to earth. Loves doing simple things in life and always manages to get your sanity back. Whatta man Jaggi :) Keep in touch. Luv :) :)...Sanjay Yelisetti Though his physique might be deceiving, Jagadish is quite the humble and modest person. Thanks for all the gyaan you shared during the processes! Keep in touch :)... BHASKAR MANDELIA Sir, it has been an absolute pleasure working with you. From same floor (SR-11 4th floor) JPC aspirant to next seat placommer we have come a long way. I still remember how much ‘mass appeal’ you had in that JPC manifesto presentation. The scheduling area has become streamlined because of your continuous efforts - a special thanks for that. I have been lucky to have seen your special dance moves but that is beyond the scope of this testimonial :) Stay in touch and say ‘dei’ once in a while....Chandan Nikhil K

Livi is one of the funniest guys around. Mr. Klueless hides a lot of talent behind that unassuming stance. Had a lot of fun making those levels and partying hard. Probably the person who epitomises the values of Klueless - Work from 4 to 10 am, work smart, party hard :D Was one of the best teams I’ve worked in, and a lot of it is down to you. We’re gonna have a lot more of the same in the future. I know we’ve got a long way to go....KIRAN RADHAKRISHNAN Livi. Our Klueless Secy. One of those guys who brought some element of normalcy in an otherwise crazy and eccentric bunch. Though he had arguably the best level amongst all of us during the K7.5 preprocess, he was essentially the most humble of the bunch, at times to the extent of seeming under-confident. Was quite apprehensive of being the Secy initially, until some of us pushed him for it and he eventually changed his mind. Also, his jokes are often the funniest! The parties, fun times and level making sessions (even though I would not be a regular campaigner in those) :P were awesome and I seriously appreciate you for being the down-to-earth and mature individual you are. Have fun and keep in touch :)...ISHAN BOSE Well, got to know you through Mridang... you are one of those guys who is always ready to help....always ready to party... one of those guys who can drink every night ! you are always chilled out and have never seen you tensed... be the way u are bro ! ...KUMAR ABHISHEK Livi nallavan nalla meeshyullavan.....nalla snehamullavan, kayyil paisayullavan! :D A strong guy, both mentally and alcoholically :P .He is THE dude when it comes to the notion of “Work hard party hard”.....a sweet guy, with a lot of hidden talents.Always keeps his door open for friends, and a romantic at heart.I surely believe that this guy will one days, become one super-kidilam CEO of some MNC!...I will forever remember our many drunken nights spent listening to various “Party anthems” and making fun of people in the process. Aliya, I am gonna miss you a lot!.....I hope all your dreams come true, wishing you the best of what life has to offer!.....snehathode, njan...oppu!! :)...VISHNU.V.A Livi is a great guy to hang around with...whether it be for drinking sessions(what we called klueless parties :P) or just to randomly chat over snacks or dinner.The entire team that worked together for klueless was awesome and amidst completely crazy people there was livi who knew klueless as a participant too and brought some level of sanity to it which helped him lead the team for K9 too. Couldn’t be part of K9 but i’m sure it would’ve been wonderful.Keep i ntouch and all the best !...HARSHVARDHAN V Livi..well...cool, funny, easy to go, humble and cheerful!! It was super fun working with you in Klueless. Wish you all the best ..take care... keep smiling always :) ...MAJUMDAR ARCHITA

Lokesh would usually be quiet and mind his own business but if you manage to get him talking, he would make you feel at a loss of words.Few people would know him but those who do, would really admire him. Intelligent hai... hard working nahi hai but sare exams mein fod deta hai. Very modest, so much so that he wouldn’t even tell his friends about his birthday. Have known him for 6 years now, can’t book a train ticket without discussing with him :P. And seems like the trend is gonna continue :P . And a small tip : If you wanna win Lokesh over to your side, you need to approach him over aaloo paratha. I don’t understand how he doesn’t get bored with it (no offence :P ). All the very best !!! Stay in touch :)...SHOBHNA SHRUTI Very easy to make friends with! He is someone you want in your group, to keep you from panicking. :P He is the perfect combination of Finance and Marketing. Enjoyed all the times solving cases together and doing bakar stuff. Though I still suspect that you looked forward to group assignments just to clear my food inventory. :P Looking forward to spending more time with you in Mumbai. Cheers! ...NAVTEJ VERMA A trusted friend and colleague during Ahvan’12 and ‘13, you impressed me with your sincerity and honesty towards work. But the crowning glory was the moment you came to my room with that good news of your dream job. My wishes were perhaps the medium, it was your hard-work and sincerity being rewarded. You are a team-man and a caring friend, stay like that. May God bless you. Stay connected.:) ATB....Vishal Vyas The fact that he was the first guy whom I would call upon when in need of any help should itself tell you how dependable and reliable this guy is. Even though we were batch mates during engineering as well, I met him only after coming here. However, after meeting him I realized that I missed upon something by not knowing him during my engineering daysâ?¦. He is a very hard-working and genuine guy who also likes having fun. He is one of the few who have a real passion for finance and mark my words, he is going to be very successful in this field. I would like to wish him all the best for the futureâ?¦ ...SAURAV GOYAL Lokesh has a personality that inspires awe because of his cool and composed attitude. No doubt, he is the Finance god of our wing with dozens of electives in the domain. He is a big foodie and you can see that glow on his face while at Pi Shop, JAM or the Samosa corner :) A very resourceful person, he is also a true friend you can always bank on. Ironically, he is a total teetotaller inspite of spending 4 years at BITS GOA. We have been trying to change that ‘status’ ever since with little success! :D Wish you all the best for your future, you surely have a great one ahead of you!...PIYUSH ANAND SRIVASTAVA

A considerate person, (the arguing not withstanding :P). Wish you the best!...SHREYA TANDON

I have looked upto you in two ways since I have come to IIM Indore : a) Figuratively because of a list of reasons long enough not to fit in here and b) Literally, you sat a level higher to me right behind me in the class after all! :P ! People do not know the other side of the Divya Deepthi coin Divya, the side that goes out on treats, that watches movies and that gets T-shirts painted and signed for people. Perhaps it’s a choice you’ve made. But you’re exceptionally, exceptionally talented and one of the few people on campus who I think deserves more than IIM Indore. The world is waiting for you to unleash yourself, the 2 sides of you at that. Stay in touch and have a great life ahead! ...SUKHAD CHATURVEDI Deepti, we haven’t really interacted outside of Management Canvas related work... But your drive to do things correctly, hardwork and commitment are exactly the kind of stuff I thought( and dreaded a little cuz of the relative grading!) I would see at a place like IIM. This work ethic would definitely take you places and I wish you all the best there! By the way, I was absolutely blown away by your signed t-shirt gesture, showed that you were also a person who treasured friendship :) I’m sure your friends who can count on you are really lucky that way! Cheers and all the best for your future!...Avinash Chidambar Hi Divya, Until HOP, I thought this girl is about studies, studies and more studies. However, I was in for a pleasant surprise as you turned out to be quite a revelation . had a blast performing the role of flirty Vishal in the skit penned by you. Such cracker lines! That’s when I met the fun-loving person in you .An articulate and knowledgeable gal, wish you loads of success in life. Best Wishes, Sabornee...SABORNEE JANA It was so great working with you. You always gave so much space to our ideas and let us be on our own. One of the sweetest seniors I met in campus and wish would have been lucky enough to work with you in Management Canvas. All the very best for your future and please do stay in touch :-) Wish you a great life ahead :-)...ANKITA Divya and her dedication go hand-in-hand. Came to know her most during our 2 year membership in Chain Reaction of Ahvan. Chain Reaction and we all were proud to have her as the coordiantor who managed to promote the event to a flagship status. Getting the highest exclusive sponsorship is not a joke.. And that will tell about her abilities. A highperformer in academia that she is, she also maintained vital PoR-s like heading one event and one club at the same time. Amongst the sea of DCP-s, got to heard some good CP-s from her in the elective sessions. She also manages crises well as again I saw in Chain Reaction, be it formulating a case in 2 hours or communicating with people while in a stressed journey to take an important exam. Best of luck and keep in touch! :-)...DEBAYAN BISWAS

Balfa..! our sportsman and kudos to his timing in cracking jokes...he is an athlete by nature...I was baffled by his stamina while trekking during HOP...Apart form that he is very good at acads... he listens to every class and prepares notes (only when he doesn’t take those funny naps during classes) he maintains friendly relations with almost the entire batch... I hope you have a royal career in RBS and a blissful personal life... Cheers..!... AMBATI AVINASH

As I always say u have been one of the most dedicated and hardworking person I have met here. Genuine, unfeigned and very cordial u have always been a pleasant company to have.. one on whom I cud rely for sure.. learnt a lot from u.. in terms of patience, commitment and sheer passion dat u possessed in achieving anything.. one more night performance wudv never happened had u not been a constant presence during practice.. the best thing was that even after practising the most wen u dint get a chance to perform for reverbs u werenâ??t dejected.. u encouraged us n also sacrificed many times for the team.. That smile never faded from ur face â?? which meant there were no reasons to panic ;) the start almost always came from ur side.. ur video collection was top-notch.. Largely happy to come across as sincere a person as u.. Hopfully we will continue to be great frendz in NCR too ;) ...KRIT DOSHI Varun may look calm and quiet to begin with, he is not. He has a sharp mind and has a sharp tongue as well. Well, may be a little exaggeration here but I hope you get the gist. Few of the things that I would always remember about Varun is his accent which is amusing at times, his red-eyes just after he has been woken up in the middle of his sleep, keenness to argue anything and everything and that too with great points. (Not that we have been in many serious arguments or anything!)...VIVEK THEBARIA Varun,,,,I have had quite a few interactions with you and am truly amazed by how u can switch so easily from the casual to the formal mode...U are smart and hardworking...and have to say...were the best secy :)....I am pretty sure I shall continue to call you for guidance :)...Wish you all the best.......SANDESH V sleep is one thing he will not trade anything for..he had almost missed a couple of placement process by sleeping over..our currenc-I club secy..always had gr8 plans and motivated us to contribute better..he has a very high level of IQ and am sure he will do gr8 in his finance career :) :)...VENKAT DUBASH. L Take care, All the best :)...SRINIVAAS G Varun was never really meant for the modern age of instant communication :P He almost never replies to IMs and NEVER picks up the phone when you call! He then returns your calls about 6 hrs later! Good that it didn’t prevent us from having good times these last two years man (cuz trust me, this usually is a deal breaker with an impulsive guy like me)... I used to get unnerved at how quickly you would grasp the Macroeco stuff during those combined cram sessions, well not just economics, all those heavy non-globy subjects! I’m sure you’ll be able to land your chosen career, initial hiccups notwithstanding :) My only advice is learn to pick those phone calls! Else we won’t really stay in touch...Cheers! ...Avinash Chidambar

Its awkward at times when you address me as “aap”. Avoid that. You’ve been the person I’ve turned to for help/ advice on IIM Indore. Thank you for the help, not just in terms of advice but also the textbooks, contacts and what not. I am really impressed by your dedication to work and work ethic. i’d heard about your work during Exergy, and witnessed it during Ahvan and Mridang, and I can definitely say that there’s a lot to learn from you. May God grant all that you desire. Best wishes, until we meet next!...GANGAR MITESH LAXMICHAND MMM- Lucky to have a friend who is as talented as resourceful.

We spent a good time together be it for studies, competitions, assignments, placement preparations, knowledge sharing sessions and the HOP trip. I would remember you as a cool, fun loving person and a person who can make witty comments on anything...u r too good at that...I enjoyed every moment we worked together and I can definitely say that you will keep environment joyful wherever you go. I wish you all the very best for all your future endeavours...Keep in touch !!! Ohh forgot to mention that word from your engineering prof. ..â?? Chaannnnnnnâ?? :)...ANIKET YEVALKAR The Maratha Warrior!! We hit it off from T-nite (when the 4 of us non-dancers became hiphoppers overnyt ;) ) ever since it has been a roller-coaster ride wid more highs than lows ;) brief intro abt u:- a realistic, sophisticated and straight forward person, one of the few ppl, who take the potshots at their belly very sportingly.. a j block loyalist (first as the johny n then as the most regular customer of samosa pt), bhakarwadi fanatic, SRT devotee.. I agree there are reasons in taking pride about one’s community but u were surely at the top of the pyramid of ppl, extremely proud abt anything related to Maharashtra ;) ek baar jo decide kar leta hai toh fir koi v use change nahi kar paata ;) umpteen fond memories of u - Teri IPM waali :P, urz n Swaroop’s Sachin vs Punter fights, ur trademark style of abusing, trying out new places to eat - cafe terezza, the veg. place- mud oven :P, ur aversion to visit nafees (meant I never had to speak against nafees :P), mandu tripâ?¦ m too lazy to type all the instances :P as a frnd u wer always supportive n fun to be with.. my only veg companion - I wudnt hv gon out to eat diz frequently had u nt been der ;) cricket, baddy, tennis, tt - we played dem all n njoyed all games thoroughly :) always willing to guide n impart knowledge, getting delicious home-made food everytym.. had a great time wid u on campus :) :) n hop it doesn’t end here;) ...KRIT DOSHI Introduced as a member of the all ‘A’ bench of Sec-C, I first came to know Abhishek well during our RIP at Hoshangabad --- my flying companion! :-P Helping others is one of his prominent qualities. Starting from sharing luggages in RIP, giving away his umbrella even when he himself needed it --- the list would not fit here. His talents and contribution in our skits at HOP deserve special mention. He would be the first to come up with new ideas which we could then execute. He has been my companion in RIP and HOP --- two of the few enjoyable memories at IIM Indore. So wish you best of luck for your future life and do keep in touch! :-)...DEBAYAN BISWAS Mahajan, as I would fondly call him, has been one of the “Jhonny” buddies from term-1 itself.A very simple down to earth guy, whom I consider as my own elder brother.I cannot remember how many times that I’d asked you for udhaar, and each and every time you had given me your love in the form of “Snacks, snacks and more snacks”.Always, happy to help you bro, will fondly remember you in my life.Please do remember me in your prayers.Wishing you the very best in life...... :) JAI MAHARASHTRA!! :D...VISHNU.V.A

Well, I’d most likely have to omit the best instances of my interactions with this guy, most of which happened during the summer internships in the interest of public survival ;) but I’ll add a few.... Mainak is one of the most daredevil dudes as proven by his ‘interest’ in a lady sitting barely a translucent partition away from us in the office and his incessant ‘pinging’ of innocent HR managers. Also, we shared some real good times in a room in Ashwini Hotel, Mumbai (not those kind of good moments :O).... but you’ll know what I’m talking about ;) I became a fan of this gentleman post his recollection of a certain incident of him going ballistic with his spectacles, a caveat not easily replaceable by mere mortals. Keep up the good work and may women fall head over heels at the very mention of your name even without getting hit by specs ;)...DEBOPRIO DUTTA Mainak..the guy who sleeps :) ..it’s common that you get a call from Mainak the night before exams wanting to study in your room, cribbing about his neighbors making noises. It’s even more common that he would come to your room and sleep in 5 minutes taking poses that even Ramdeb hasn’t ventured yet. And it’s a treat talking to a drunk Mainak, learning about his numerous crushes. But come placements or committee elections, you get a glimpse of the real hardworking determined Mainak. His acad records are proof enough of his intelligence. But, the determination he showed during finals preparing wholeheartedly for fin profiles is praiseworthy. And who could forget the self-branding (Visiting every hostel room twice wearing a Purple T-Shirt and pitching “If you fail to remember my name, you’ll find me in this T-shirt!”) he did during mediacom elections! All these apart, he is a nice friend to interact with, a guy whose neurons are tuned to JU levels just like many of us. Wish you a healthy (awake) future ahead and we’ll surely keep in touch. :)...PRAMIT PAL Mainak... the sleeper. How can a guy sleep everyday in half of the lectures and still get good grades?? i fail to understand that. As a fellow Johnny and a classmate ..I’ve seen him do a lot of stuff. Somehow liquid is always involved in his escapades..be it in the form of water (midnight birthdays) or its consumption as liq***(parties) which always ends him up drenched in a pool of water. A great guy at heart with a sharp mind and awesome networking skills..I wish you all the best for you career and life.. Cheers!...Chitresh Singh

Most Memorable CP : PORs on campus : Ideal endorser for : Sprite - Clear hai ! One song you symbolize : Wake up sid One song you symbolize : Frequently uttered lines : 10 years from now you will be : If not MBA then : Favourite spot on campus : Football ground Friend groups on campus : First crush in the institute : Lasting impressions about college : Lasting impressions about college :

First friend on campus, best friend on campus, and will remain one of my best friends forever. You had spent half of your first year in my room( we were seen together more often than some of the couples on campus ;) ). So much so, that most people mistook you as an I Block guy. You are everything that I secretly aspired for in school and could not be( topper, stud cricketer, amazing amazing footballer). Every fucking subject in PGP1, you were the one who taught me. One instance which I will never forget is our summers. You got placed in Day 1. Your parents wanted you to come home in the subsequent 10 day break. Every other guy on campus left for home the day they got placed. But, you stayed back for only one reason. Because I was not placed, and you were my only friend. That spoke miles about you as a person. And believe it or not, I was as happy as you when GS happened. No one deserves the success in life that you have got so far more than you do. You are closest to me in terms of laziness in this campus( Goldman will change you I guess, and I will be the undisputed winner). Thank you for bearing all my nonsense, my rhetoric questions, my immaturity. Stay the way you are. And I seriously wish and pray that you get the only remaining piece in the jigsaw puzzle that will make your life complete. You deserve it. Cheers !! ...ARINDAM PAUL “The man who is closest to enlightenment :D”. At times I wonder how difficult will it be for me to turn into a person like you, who is right in every aspect I can think of. I know that you don’t express much but you are concerned about the people around you (I still remember your reaction on my placement). FMCG end term, Placement prep, the sutta breaks.. are some of the moments I am definitely going to remember. I am extremely happy for what you have achieved so far. And I am sure you will continue to do so. Not only because you are extremely talented (the I-banker who was busy reading kotler a day before his Fin Interview :P ) but also because of your humility. New York pakka aaunga, Chill maarte hain :D ...RAHUL NAGDEV Dude, whatever I write here in any case will be much less than whatever praises or gyan or “short” I have given you in the course of our numerous booze sessions :P So remember those as my testimonials as well ;) You know you are one of my closest friends and confidantes and one of the most talented guys I have ever met in my life-- Seriously sports, academics, intelligence, you have it all-everything that we dream of excelling in as kids. And now you have a great job, and hopefully soon you will get the only thing remaining in your life which you yearn for. (P.S: I WILL demand a treat when that happens) I will remember the nightouts that we had for stupid assignments and the hours-long discussions that we had at a point in my life when I was feeling low, which would invariably end with you saying, â??Chhod itna tension mat le, sab thik ho jaegaâ?? Thanx for listening to all those shortiley sessions :P Ab isse zyada I won’t write much. I am not that good with words. Also, because I think you are one of those people who I will stay in touch with for my entire life time, so a formal testimonial doesn’t really make too much, sense now, does it? Stay happy, stay blessed, and hoping to witness you successful in every way in the years to come! As they say, â??acche logo ke saath hamesha accha hi hota hainâ?? :)...SOUVIK SINHA ROY

ANK MAYPTA GU

He has been our punchbag for almost an year now. But he is one of the coolest guys there ever was. Never minds most of the things. A Gujrati with a difference. Can study almost anything. Can â??rattaifyâ?? every little thing. Rona band kar Manku. Bahut aage jaayege. Lekin guarantee le, usmain jo abhi tu rat raha hai, woh kaam nahi aayega. Fun to talk to. Doesnt know a damn thing in the world. Can be easily manipulated. But when he learns a thing, he knows it better than the best. Would definitely miss our times teasing Paaji, chai at jam and every damn place in the world (chai peena kam kar de bhai), RD parties, Satpura. Goa chal le bhaiâ?¦. bandi ka best man banne main kuch nhi rakha hai :P. Jokes apart. You are for sure a very nice person, an innocent oneâ?¦ hamesha aise hi rehna and haan jab bhi main Jamnagar aaunga Iâ??m staying at your place and sari stories sunaunga tere ghar par !

Jain as he is known amongst the batch mates, one of the sweetest (I know that adjective sounds better coming from the fairer sex) guys you get to meet around. Quite a friendly person, he is easy to get along with. A guy who would smile back at you even if he passes you by 10 times a day being in the same wing. One of the people I would usually head to whenever in need of urgent help. I wouldnâ??t lie, the image we had of the senior placement committee, your amicable sophisticated nature did not in any way go along with that (and even though I voted for you, I thought you would be a rather misfit in that bunch) :P But hey, you were both a part of junior and senior committee and even though I donâ??t know of the details of the work you would do, I knew well the amount of effort and time you would put into it (I remember your rooms would remain locked almost the entire day). Glad that you got placed in the first company that visited campus, and as I already told you it was funny because I clearly remember how worried you were on the first day at campus regarding placements :D I am sure you will go places. Have fun dude, and keep in touch! :)...ISHAN BOSE Whenever we are together, we just talk, talk and talk. I still remember being at your place in Mumbai and talking with you till 8 in the morning and innumerable talking night-outs on campus post that. Silly or serious doesnâ??t matter but we always have a topic to talk about, however random or relevant. I have also spent the most amount of competition time with you which started with Marico during summers and ended with Marico too with Over The Wall. I have enjoyed working with you the most. I just love the fact that you maintain your cool in the most demanding situations and with most difficult people (maybe thatâ??s also why you are a placomer :P). Out of all the work and good times we had, an amazing friendship has prospered between us two and I know that I can talk to you about anything and everything under the sun. Looking forward to all the more chatter and madness because I am going to irritate you for the rest of your life and you have no choice but to deal with it. :P...SWATI VERMA Mayank is the quintessential multi-tasker of our batch. Iâ??ve seen this guy doing hell lot of things, all at same time. There are two things that make him stand apart, his energy levels and his networking skills. If he has to finish a task, heâ??ll do it no matter what it takes. Mayank, Iâ??ve never been able to figure out when you sleep, or if you sleep at all. And Iâ??m totally in awe of your networking skills. Youâ??re connected to almost every one on campus and a hell lot of people outside, thatâ??s just insane!! You, Mathur and I had loads of discussion on millions of topics, and I just hope the discussions keep happening irrespective of your busy schedule. :P. But youâ??re one humble guy whoâ??ll always be there to help at any given time. And I always keep making fun of your shopping habits, your Mickey Mouse bedsheet and a range of Happy Meal toys in your room. Iâ??m sure youâ??ll be a top notch consultant in no time. And just never forget that weâ??ll have atleast one Bachelorâ??s Party in Las Vegas, doesn’t matter whose. :)...SIDDHARTH SINGHAL

Lasting impressions about college :

As the story goes, Meghwant or “Mgnator/MG” as we used to call him, used to sit in front of me during PGP1 and that is where we interacted first and our friendship started thanks to our common interests being fulfilled by “26 Hills” ;) . I have never met anyone with more logical and rational thinking than him though I have to say he also got clean bowled by a member of fairer sex and lost all the logic while on the trip to Europe. In my two years at IIM Indore, I never saw Meghwant getting tensed about anything which I really appreciate. I would always remember all those Facebook videos we used to see after the “parties” in Meghwant’s room. In short, I really had a great time here, thanks to our friendship.I wish you all the success in your ventures and hope that you will invite me to join your company’s board one day....PRADUMN KUMAR MISHRA Initial days and sitting next to the “ALL KNOWING” Meghwant was a nightmare for me. For every second question I could hear voice coming from next to me and it was always Meghwant. First time we met informally ( :p) was when you came for dinner sharing at 26 hills. After that day we were on a chicken eating spree. I enjoyed every meal we had together while watching endless TV series and movies. Thanks for introducing me to GoT. You,me and pradumn spent some wonderful time and I will miss your endless logic for every situation or discussion you entered in. Start up a great venture and keep visiting your dream land Europe. I was lucky to have a friend like you on campus and will love to be in touch always. ...SHADAB ALI SIDDIQUI I met this guy on my first day at campus during Bakra! And before I could know him well, we were too busy with our respective lives here. Different friend circles, different sections, this guy hardly had any PORs and the low-profile guy he is, I could have never known him had we not been on student exchange together. However, the entire fifth term on exchange, and we did majority of our trips together. Our natures are very different in most of the aspects so that is not an ideal companion for travel you would be looking for. But looking back, I believe that made it all the more fun. His analytical and risk-averse outlook would amaze me, at times even piss me (and I am sure I left no stone unturned to annoy you every now and then) :P but the good thing was that it made me cognizant to a different point of view altogether. A helpful guy to the core. Glad that you did not follow the herd mentality and pursued your interest in real estate which you set out for in the beginning. And in spite of me still not believing in the concept of exhaustive planning and the silly altercations we would keep having, (in Sherlockâ??s words, listen this properly because I would not repeat :P ); Exchange would not have been the same without you Megawatt! Keep rocking, and stay in touch :)...ISHAN BOSE

You were already famous before coming to IIM Indore, atleast on our FB group..I still remember your DP..hatke :P Saloni Mehta, Sal, Mummy, Dadi, or Didi (as Soham says) you’ve been everything to me on this campus..My first friend, neighbour, and classmate you are someone who is irreplaceable in my life now... Ive never seen a more selfless, straightforward, and mature person in my life before..and as my mum always believed more than me -you’ve been there for me through everything till the END :D <3 ! ..Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner, Classes, Assignments, Partying, Studying, Never-ending conversations, fights everything will be missed..;(..I have done literally every single thing on this campus with you as company..and I cant fathom how its going to be like when I leave this place without you.. Ive said innumerable times to people ‘Ye mera saath kabhi nahi chhodegi’! but now we are going to be at different places, doing different things, being with different people :(..I have learnt so much from you in these two years..everything personal and professional..:)..I can go on and on about so many things because there are way too many memories..So now I would just end by saying that you are the very few I know from this campus who is definitely going to make it HUGE in life undoubtedly. You’ve already proved this with ITC, Utsaha and innumerable other things you’ve done in life so far and I’m sure that you would continue to do so! Keep making us proud! Love you always! :’)...NIYATI JHUNJHUNWALA “Saloneeeee - kya kar rahe ho?” ! :) Rakshash, Battmeez, Ghatiya Insaan, Lean Mean Machine (hahahaha), “So Cute” are some names I call this girl by.. and time to time she proves me right and stays true to them ;). Perennial Dynabyte eater, loves ‘Terrible Tiny Tales’, weirdly enough only person I know who watches ‘Bones’. We have come a long, long, long way, you little prick and you know it. There are so many small weird things I can write here but it spoil this long list of testimonials praising you to no end. Jokes apart, I met this little powerhouse properly only in term 3 and thus started a journey which has come leaps and bounds and will only grow strong in times to come. We have talked for hours on topics I would not even open up with others, easily one of the two people I am closest to on this campus (other being Prakarsh obviously), won’t harp on how hard you have worked the entire year starting with Marathon obviously (â??aarrey gaaana hi toh gaaana hai, kuch bhi gaa deâ??:P) which led to a cross program love story at IIM Indore of course :D, then Gordian Knot and then Utsaha - its a fact that is well covered. Neither am I writing about how intelligent, pretty (OMG!) or witty you are â?? so you have to deal with it. Writing testimonials are weird! You yourself know how close we have come, we have had sooo many fights in the past few months but eventually everything gets sorted. IT JUST HAS TO GET RIGHT ;) The past year has been special and you yourself know how big a part you have played in it, be it placements or anything else â?? you have been there for me, one of the two people on whom I can bet my house knowing they will always be there for me through hardships and good times. Everything has just started :) Abhi toh Bombay main milna hai, you are faltu vella for 2 entire months, you know the deal, you know what to do. Haha! :) ...VIKALP KUMAR NIGAM

First crush in the institute : Serious wala to ek hi hai Lasting impressions about college : great expereience Lasting impressions about college :

Some of my happiest moments in the campus were during cricket matches . I ll always remember the two awesome matches we played against the dubai guys. I always felt most comfortable playing with you , Rohan and yogesh . You guys were really supportive and it was pure awesome experience to have played some good cricket matches with you :) The last two IPL matches were complete awesome :) I will cherish those moments when I had the privilege of watching you bowl left arm over the wicket fast medium standing at deep mid off. You remained very silent in the class and you were one of the few who were calm in the cricket field :) One of the friendliest guys in planet-I :) My best wishes for your future dude :) stay in touch :)...KAVINKUMAR R For me, Mohammad Amir has shared a special thread, the thread of cricket and isn’t it amazing that without knowing each other well, we ended up being such good friends over cricket matches. From discussing random cricket trivia to playing some of the most amazing cricket matches together and against one another, the cricketing partnership we’ve shared would be wonderful if translated into a life-long Laxman-Dravid like stand. Stay in touch!...SUKHAD CHATURVEDI Amir is one of the most chilled out guys on campus. In fact, the first time I noticed him was during an OB -1 class when he was caught by the instructor because he hadn’t gone through a reading :)I will never forget the awesome times we had playing howzat cricket(Ralizone seemed to be an unlucky name :) ),travelling to Narsinghpur ,discussing complicated issues,and devouring cheese burst pizzas at dominoes. Amir is almost always cheerful and I have only seen him angry on a couple of occasions(such as the Narsinghpur Poker Tournament :P).He is one of those rare friends that I can rely on and I’m really glad that I met him. @Saifi:Watch Ishaqzaade man..Its a pretty good movie ;) .Keep in touch and all the best for your future endeavours....PRASAD VENKATESAN Amir bhai kya bolu yar.. tu na hota sath to pgp2 was difficult to get by.. those late night cricket matches and rammi .. I will never forget yar.. kuch log frenz hote hain.. par tu apna bhai hai .. touch mein rahio kamine..san fransisco jaake bhulio mat.. :P...SIDHANT SACHDEVA I got to know Amir during our SIP and have since become very close friends. I still remember the day when we travelled to Laxmi Nagar right after office just to satiate our desire for some kick-ass chicken biryani. A die-hard foodie and an accomplished cricketer, of late he has been busy honing his poker and snooker skills. This IIT guy mesmerized me by the way he deftly culled out some information which was critical to our SIP project. Behind the soft spoken demeanor is a guy who works really hard when it matters. I wish you all luck for a great future!...PARTHA PRATIM PANDA

He is a helpful, cheerful and inspiring person who happens to be my friend. Throughout the years that I’ve known him, he has been very kind and considerate to every difficulties me and any of his friends has. He inflate his neck pillow, pack his medium level soduku whenever he has to give a ppt :D I wish Zeeshan to have a healthy, peaceful and long cheerful life. #Vlrs Ralte...VANLALROSIAMA RALTE “Main aapna company kholungaa aur saala IIM Indore main placements karane aoungaa” that’s Zeeshan for you in short... :P Driven by strong sense of entrepreneurship and ownership, but he hardly wants to work for his dreams.. He is simple, lazy, high on sleeping, looking all the time for online dating sites :P, but xtremely helpful and generous to the core. He saves my budget by providing almost half of the things that I need. Possesses great skills in presentation and public speaking and pretends as if he created MS Office by himself and also taught Bill Gates how to use it. He would go to the night mess with 20 rupees in his pocket and ask his friends to treat him with chicken lollipop (don’t believe him if he says I was the one with 20 rupees in my pocket :P) He is a dreamer, business oriented and wants to earn so much money that he can buy a yacht, private jet and live the life of a wall street billionaire. Apart from his religion, he worships Steve Jobs and Sergey Brin and sometimes almost behaves as if he is going to be the next CEO of Google.. :) I canâ??t remember a single day in my MBA career where I didnt ask him for sumthing or the other. The best thing is that you always get the help that you wanted. A simple but a great guy and I can’t explain how fc**ng badly I am gonna miss him when I am done with my MBA. Zeeshan plz go and start your dream company and I will surely join it and live together as friends forever. My girlfriend will surely kill me if she sees this because even for her I haven’t written such a detailed post :P (Just kidding, I won’t be alive if it was so.. :P ) So to end it, start working for your dream and I am sure you will hit it like anything. All the best and let this friendship blossom forever.. btw I want a chicken lollipop for this long post and I will contribute only 20 rupees for it.. Cheers mate and God bless you...!!! :)...DEBRAJ DAS The cool dude of IIM Indore. We had a lot of fun together in HOP. Never let go of that positive attitude you possess. All the best for the future!...KIRAN RADHAKRISHNAN HOP wouldn’t have been so much had it not been for you.

Haan bhai You are the utmost level of optimist person that this place can provide. Your guts are unmatched in the campus :). No wonder every one in the administration knows and respect you. I can count on you anytime for any problems and you always put friendship above your work. Really admire your courage and keep doing what you believe in :)... Parag Jain What I am setting out to achieve, I don’t have the ability to accomplish. What I can say with utmost certitude as I set out, that words I employ can only do as much justice in abetting my limited expression. That is the insurmountable and unenviable task of writing a testimonial in a few words for Mohit. A few people leave an everlasting impact on you; while touching the lives of so many others. The people who take those paths make difficult choices, often sacrificing their interests for the other person. Mohit has taken that path, never flinching in its quotidian struggle, one often with the self - doubting the validity of such higher ideals. In my first day in Indore, first time away from the comforts of home - homesick and wary, I met him in his room. While talking to him, I fell asleep on his bed. The next morning, to my surprise, I woke up to find him sleeping on the floor. From that day on, I have learnt the greatest lessons from you - of humility, empathy and consideration. This is my humble effort to express my gratitude to you. ...SYED ERAJ HASSAN YOU ARE THE PERSON I HAVE LOVED MOST IN THIS CAMPUS and i can even i assure that jitna pyar main tujhe karta hun utna sala koi nahi kar sakta other than your family of course....Bhai jis tarah se tu sabka dhyaan rakhta hai aur sabko suggestions deta hai..Bhai respect hai tere liye.....Tu ek din bahut bada aadmi banega yeh to sab mante hain tere bare main lekin tu bahut bahut achha insaan hai aur rahega that is a real combo......Bhagwaan ka laakh laakh shukr hai ki teri seat badal ke mere bagal main kar di gayi thi...... Speak your heart out to me you will feel good..(i assure you that)...but take your time. Ek baat main tujhe bole deta hun....Tujhe saale main kabhi bhi nahi chorunga chaiye kuch bhi ho jaye...ab tu pakta ho to pak 100 baar socha kya likhun tere bare..abhi bhi bahut saari batein hai but theek hai direct bole dunga phir kabhi HUMESH KHUSH RAHE TU BHAI....BHAGWAAN TERI SAARI ICHAYEIN PURI KARE....

My first day in college and I have to take an important printout. I rush to the printout shop but the stupid underwhelming structure is of no help. Thankfully there’s an equally clueless girl standing there thinking about ‘Where the hell do I get a printout from’- And so I met Monami, my first friend on campus. The ride which started from Media Com continued through HOP, interspersed by crazy parties, group outings, gyan sessions and plain old mugging(My god, she’s brilliant at that). An insanely good person at heart, she has a fascination for all things sweet and loves Bengaluru to the hilt. Girl, It was a pleasure knowing you and hopefully we’ll stay in touch. After all, you still have to take me to those ‘3 Wise Monkeys’ :P ...APAL The way your sense organs co-communicate when u go out to express urself is extraordinary. To quote a specific instance - you made me buy a Fruit & Nut Dairy Milk when described chocolate as a ‘product’ in a group discussion during Utsaha induction :D. Its not merely an attribute but a well cemented quality which would take u a long way. I am sure its not going anywhere as it comes very naturally to u. And yes! You are very pretty - ekdum ‘gori-chitti’ ;) - wo Lux ke ads ki tarah :P , envy of many am sure :P. We may not have interacted a great deal but you are a good friend and will always be. Do keep touch. :) :)... AYUSH AGARWAL It is said that French is the sweetest language in the world. No wonder the girl with the French name had been one of the sweetest girls in the batch. True to your name, you had been one of my good friends, well we did hit the nadirs and the zeniths, but that’s what makes friendships special. During summer placements when I had almost lost faith in myself, you kept pushing me on. Your GD tips worked like magic, not only then but also during the final placements. The NERD queen of mediacom (can’t help it, but it was entertaining to see you blast out every time :P), some of your last minute tips in studies were also great. Wish I had listened to more of them. The showstopper in all the parties, your drinking capacity deserves a genuflection too! If we cross paths in the future, speak less of Hindi with me....after all I am one of the worst when it comes to speaking it....MAINAK BHOWMIK Being in the same section. I had the opportunity to listen to ur CPs :P But quite honestly, I admired your confidence and spontaneity while speaking, with that hand gesture and of course ur pretty face with a smile. I knew about your high cgpa but actually got to know about ur dedication to everything through some of the competitions that we participated together, especially Neeti. Btw let me know how do u manage to read so many novels. it was my pleasure to finally sell you the idea of buying a Kindle. May you achieve the best in life. keep in touch. ...RASHMI RANJAN KAR

I would cherish the memories of such times and that spent during RIP and especially the summer internship at Bangalore. Jyada bakchodi nahi karta.

We sat together a whole year in PGP 1 and if there is one thing I have learnt from you is to keep calm and take it lite. While you can obviously mug the whole fin textbook, you can also get totally talli on the DJ nites and whip out some wild moves. And the stories I have heard of your exchange programs, proper stuff of legends. And you were probably the first to discover the massive amounts of BS in my CPs (which you promptly told me about, not cool man :P). And I hope you remember what made our Tata Mindrovers time interesting :D Here’s wishing you lifetime of awesome experiences that would dwarf your exchange adventures.

Gola! You are easily the kind of person in the batch who is loved by one and all. Always very cheerful and bring life to the group. I remember the day when I dropped you in your room when you were so high you could not even walk! (with Bose doing some DCP :P ). Considered God in excel and powerpoint, I think you would go miles with the kind of job you got at IIM-I. I was always a fan of your jokes and your card tricks! :P Will never forget the SAPM viva we had with Gaurav Singh Chauhan..hahaha,, You have very good analytical thinking skills which have always helped you at Planet-I. I believe your charm will take you places and will give you the success that you deserve. Always thought of you as a younger brother. Keep in touch. cheers.....RAHUL YADAV Mast banda is the perfect phrase that one can describe him with. Has such an awesome sense of humor that in spite of me being the butt of his jokes most of the time, would make me laugh at myself! His cool and carefree persona can be misleading as within that is an intelligent, street-smart and intelligent guy with an analytical bent of mind (the only guy who has a better one on one record at Connect 4 over me). Certainly a fun guy to drink and party with. Have fun dude and be the same :)...ISHAN BOSE Salil: ye batao “Aapko” OM mein kis taran ka paper aaya tha? Nakul: “Aap” mat bol yaar ..... Salil: Acha “Aaapne” is situation mein kya kiya tha? Nakul: “Aap” mat bol yaar.... These conversations would always be remembered. You are one of the coolest guys I’ve met on campus, meeting of consulting club wouldn’t have been fun without you.. and your sense of humor is simply amazing (especially your Paaji stories). Nakul (Aap) it was fun working with you. Wish you all the success and a great life ahead!! Do stay in touch :)...SALIL AGGARWAL One of the first people I met on campus. A good footballer and a better person. Loved your mimicry and sarcastic jokes. Keep on rolling and all the best for the future. ...NAVTEJ VERMA Hey buddy I cant forget those Tekken fights that we used to have. A very lively person, great sense of humour and cant forget those mimicry you did in the class in our first year :D thanks for being a part of my this small journey here at IIM Indore. Wish you good luck for your future endeavours and keep in touch :)...TEJINDER KUMAR NEGI A very nice person. I met you during our internship, and we became friends instantly. I never felt like we didnt talk much on campus before. I guess this is your most important quality that will win you long lasting friends.... A very cheerful, and always smiling guy... Wish you all the best in life... Keep in touch bhai...SHAUNAK VISHWAKARMA

Natasha is one of the most sincere and level headed person I have met here. When people ask why one should have work ex before doing MBA, you are the answer to it :P Hehe. Seriously, The way your organize everything and the amount of experience and wisdom you carry with yourself, I would always be in awe of that, But with that mature outlook comes that fun kid which makes you an extra cool person to hangout with :D I always loved talking to you, seeking advice from you and coming to you with my stupid dilemmas and I would be lying if I say you couldn’t help me think straight :). You are like an elder sister to me. I really hope I never lose you. Stay in touch sis :). Wish you all the very best for your future. ...Ishan Rishabh Kansal Natasha!!! from internal news to external news to assignments, you provided me all and made my life simpler at IIM Indore. Without you initial days would have been much tougher. You introduced me to right contacts and that really helped me a lot. Thanks for being there always....KASHIMPURIA NIKHILKUMAR SUBHA I think the definition of the word discipline is Natasha. Each and every thing she does properly and timely and up to the mark. Sometimes puraane jamaane waalo logo ki yaad aa jaati hai, come on ladki, 4am pe kaun uthta hai. Anyway, although we were in same section in 1st year but that friendship clicked from the starting of 2nd year. Tab tak to I think we never talked ek baar bhi. How lucky I must be that day when I earned such a great friend. Natty, you are a very sweet and sincere and considerate girl. Dosto ko koi problem ho to this girl will always be there for them. Aur haan, she is very naughty, though very less people know about that :P Bachho type ki harkatein to after 10pm dekho iski :D. Always be cheerful and happy ladki. All the best for your future!!!...PRAKHAR KATIYAR One face. Gazillion expressions. That is Natasha for you. Like many people outside my section, I got to know you more in the second year, and even better in the last term (thanks to the similar 8AM breakfast timings) :P Whether it be CP or GD, the authority and confidence with which she speaks is simply commendable and something I look up to (joke goes that when Natasha makes a GD point, people from across various GD groups stop and listen) :P I still canâ??t get that Bharat Mata persona out of my mind ;) That apart, there is a fun loving and naughty side to her as well, and it took only one class for me to realize that when I spent the entire session hacking into my own phone after you locked my phone with that mathematically challenging password :P Also I appreciate her commitment level, I mean you got to give it to someone who wakes up 4AM in the morning regularly during the entire course of MBA if I am not mistaken; I mean it sounds awesome to the point of insanity! (y) Off late I have been her point of envy, thanks to a phenomenon called Northern lights! Donâ??t worry, I am sure you will soon experience Aurora (more colors than I saw) and if not, letâ??s plan Aurora Australis together. Keep in touch, and hopefully I make it to your wedding! :)...ISHAN BOSE

I’m surprised how i am the first one to write on this page. I can’t begin to express how much the past couple of months mean to me. Any matter, any issue no matter how trivial it is you are one person i would always call up. You have always, always been there no matter what. I really appreciate the generosity with which you would allot time for stupidest of the things. No words could explain how much u mean to me as a friend. Thank you for always being there. Wish you great success ahead. :)...KEERTHI KOCHERLAKOTA gr8 person by heart. our interaction actually started when we had chat on fb. i showed u some of my work and u thoroughly enjoyed my work. then i was perplexed whether i should go for it and u told me to follow it. really i will always owe u fr whatever u did for me. baaki u r good shayar and poet. waise mujhe shayari samajh nahi aati but still i felt happy that u do few things of ur liking. always cherished spending time with u. keep smiling :) ...ABHIJEET SINGH Netaji - hum aapke rajneetik gyaan ke bhot bade prashanshak hain aur aasha karte hain ki ek din aapki kisi rally mein aapka bhasan sunne ka bhi saubhagya prapta hoga.

He is an extremely good poet - with too much depth in his writing. He has a lot of knowledge about religion and mythology and I truly admire that about him. Whenever you are with him, he’ll constantly make you laugh. He is good at motivating people and one can always look up to him for advice. He is a simple guy. Stay the way you are. It was great knowing you. Wishing you all the best for all your future endeavours....BHANTI PRATIKSHA DEEPAK You best know how to lighten the mood and create a cheerful atmosphere. I know you since Bakra days, and whenever we meet, you always bring a smile to my face :) You have a kind, compassionate and pure heart.

Yo ‘sexy’ Secy :P :P hardly interacted with u in the first year, but 2nd year in Vibes was simply amazing to say the least.. had tons n tons of fun.. really u handled the team very well inspite of all the internal differences .. Ur trademark dialogue “ Chhod na yaar!! “ exemplifies ur personality ;) laid back n never panicking even in the toughest of times.. guess dats y the team kept going knowing very well that u were there behind to support every1.. u were electrifying in the solo performance at reverbs..As a person also u r quite honest and friendly and all in all had a great time bonding with u.. all the best for a rocking future :)...KRIT DOSHI Navleen...this is the first nickname I gave after joining IIMI. Dancer, entertainer, street smart guy, sensible, humorous are some qualities of Navleen among many. I have tested his tolerance level to the extreme and I must say he is the incarnation of tolerance. Navleen helped me in the worst time of life irrespective of his problems. I will always cherish the fact that I have a friend like you. Wish you a wonderful life ahead....TAMBE ABHIJIT DINESH The serious Secy !!! --- Naaa the ultimate cool secy :). Yeah met you through Vibes and troubled u a lot more :P ...

But awesome memories :D ... Did learn a lot from u, in terms of dealing with people ! One of the best dancers I ve met :). Carry your cool quotient always. All the very best :)...BHAWNA S

SWEETEST girl I know in the campus :P ok jokes apart.P but seriously..will remember every second spent with you..all those random gossips and stories you told meâ?¦n then I was likeâ?¦ok lemme see who actually this person isâ?¦evening and night walksâ?¦your blunder understanding of hindi wordsâ?¦ n yes will never forget your..â??Hmmâ?? after every chat sentenceâ?¦ :-/ Thanks for being such a nice friendâ?¦although sometimes very irritating :P bt I truly like how protective u r for meâ?¦making me sometimes dumbstruck :P :Dâ?¦ Stay blessed and stay in touchâ?¦.keep smilingâ?¦will miss youâ?¦.with lots and tons of loveâ?¦. <3...AASHIMA SAINI Navneet ko gusse me dekh kar mazza bahut aata hai. :D. (As long as I am not the subject of her anger :P). She would often say that she messed up her exam and end up getting an A. :P. Level-headed and mature. Responsible and intelligent. Bas thoda kam tension le (I know I am not in a good position myself to be advising you, but still :P). Wish you the best.... SHREYA TANDON a good person and a friend. u always read my work and also encouraged me and more importantly gave ur feedback. thanks fr that. but dont think u r getting away. u will keep getting articles written by fr ur feedback. heheh i hop u achieve gr8 heights in future and also want to see u becoming entrepreneur. do find time and partner to play TT. keep smiling ...ABHIJEET SINGH Navneet is a very firm and daring girl.. However, she is mostly found cribbing a lot..Mostly for studies (Sorry..All the time STUDIES!)..Not to Forget- She is not at all a nocturnal being (despite being a part of Planet I,which is indeed shocking!). And yes, she loves KADI. (I know you are laughing out loud, yet you are angry!). Warning: Dont push her hard, for she gets angry easily and then she would beat you black and blue! :P (Kidding ofc!). A geek to the core, she was worried for exams and assignments despite bagging a PPO! :P..But at the same time, she is serious, devoted and hardworking. We had the opportunity to work in a team (although it dint pull off well!), where I was pleasantly surprised to see her dedication to her work.She is a follower of her own principles and would go a long way in whatever she pursues. All the best..and yup, keep smiling. All the best...PARAG PODDAR Navneet, came to know her only around 5th Term, very sincere & hardworking person. You can judge the perfection of her work by looking at the output. (For me I used to give her garbled content & she would meticulously arrange them & add her point, which were even more amazing). If she is in your group you can be assured that either she will do the work or make sure that someone else will do the work (the chances of later are much higher though :p :p). Her favourite smiley is :-/ which she will use after every alternate sentence :p. Glad to have a friend like you, Wishing you all the very best for future :-)...PANKAJ DHINGRA

Lasting impressions about college : Not the college that you want, but the one you need. ;) Lasting impressions about college : Oh yeah, it’s an institute, not a college. :P

Frankly I Never knew about u before the summers.. but then it wudv been so boring had u not been der.. the mall hopping, window shopping, aimlessly roaming around Bhopal, unsuccessful attempt to visit Bheembhetka, every Wednesday evening Rs 100 movie.. lols how we always used to look forward to Sundays or holidays.. u dozing off in office.. ur love affair wid the tv series- white collar, suits ( I donâ??t even remember how many u completed within two months).. u actually made optimum use of the summers ;) deciding about wer to have dinner, having samosas n puchkas almost everyday after office.. the divine sugarcane juice in the torturous heat, ice creams, making maggi and above all arguing with the landlady for every damn problem she had ;) Really had a great time during the internship courtesy u.. n hop u have a great future ahead ...KRIT DOSHI At first, you may doubt if Navtej is Japanese? This guy is a die hard fan of Japanese cartoons. Analytics champ Navtej is the man to approach before BA/AMR exams. You cannot win an argument with this guy. Winning an argument against Navtej is like scoring A+ in CP. All group meetings are scheduled in Navtej’s room, which is never short of varieties of eatables. True at heart, Navtej is the man you would always find by your side when in trouble....LOKESH CHANDRA AGRAWAL Abe PHAEKU...Start working now for real.. It was funny that you did not want to get noticed in the class, but hope this has changed during the year some what.. U are a dedicated sincere guy.. (not only in Crappy birds but otherwise also :P :P) The knowledge you have in data analysis is amazing...I hope youwill be able to further that in your job and follow it to become an expert..(looking forward to a lot of help & tips ;).. Lets go to the gym as well...maar maar ke le jana padega ab bhi.. heheehe...MANISH KUMAR BANSAL Navtej verma, an artist, an anime lover, a movie buff, a gaming enthusiast. You won’t Know Nutcase until you spend a considerable amount of time with him but once you do, you realize he is one hell of a guy. He is the person who is if in your grp, you can be sure that the task would be done. You want to watch an anime he is the go to guy to consult. You cannot argue with this guy unless you are ready to digest his 3 Dimensional bakar logic. Anyways Best of Luck :) ...ANKUR JAIN Hmm, Navtej. The first thing anyone notices about you is how you try to throw some logic and funda in almost everything you speak. Can’t forget Ur saying ‘Samajh rahe ho na’ after every sentence, specially during this placement season.I would say you were somewhat under rated, never in the lime light, but definitely had the potential to be the ‘Dude’ of the batch (Actually, i think yeh kuch zyada ho gaya :D). Both R.I.P. and H.O.P. wudn’t have been the same without you in the group. Enjoyed ur company these two years and i have a feeling, maybe I will get a job in Mumbai too. :) All the best for your future and deciding other’s future Mr. HR :P...ROHIT KUMAR GUPTA

Your best quality is your simplicity and humbleness. You have made Jugau proud with a well deserved PPO. Keep enjoying the life in the same fashion :)...Parag Jain Neeraj for me is someone who embodies the spirit of friendship in its truest sense.

Neha - She is the cutest senior I met on Planet-I. She was my mentor for resume iteration process and the experience of interacting with her has always been awesome. The little tips, the way you motivated to do well, all the times you said positive things, certainly makes you the “Best Mentor” :) Whenever she crosses on way, she greets with the most wonderful smile. Am sure you are going to do great wherever you go. All the Best! Keep the smile on! ...NEHA SUSHILKUMAR BHOMIA Kanwal Kanwal Kanwal Kanwal Kanwal (accompanied by the head movement)â?¦ Howâ??s life? Baptized by fire is this one. 3 months she jheloed me on exchange and now, she is pretty much set to face anything in life. :P As a matter of policy I give hell to my friends, and this one came out with shining colours! :D Mind-boggling patience, accompanied by that mind-boggling speed-of-light way she speaks. It takes a while for one to catch what sheâ??s saying! But when you do, in spite of all your smart, you realize that she talks pure sense. Always. Without Fail. And for being the sensible one, she gets called Mummy. I hate it when shes called that by the way. :P One of the cutest, friendliest people Iâ??ve known. She can get along with pretty much anybody, and sees nothing but the best in each person. That is quite an ability. One that forces you to try to be a better person when she is around. Devoid of all selfishness, it takes all the effort she can muster to answer a question when sheâ??s given a choice! :P Takes pleasure in taking logon ka case. Quite an entertainer, get her to dance and youâ??ll know what I mean. Times spent travelling around random places in Europe will be cherished. All the fights, the bakar, the planning, the PHOTOS, Especially the PHOTOS (We look absolutely smashing together, no Kanwal?) ! And Especially Innsbruck. Especially that bloody Swarovski Crystal Factory. And also the time when youâ??d to take the senior citizen line at Eiffel Tower! :P Still remember the first time we had an intelligent conversation (Not the post-bakra-party-one). Being a rank-outsider to the IIM system, she seemed tuned in to the whole deal. Amazing networking skills, itâ??s been 2 years and I still can not figure out how someone can be as nice as Kanwal! If I can ever be 1% as awesome as you are, Iâ??ll consider it an achievement! With your naukri selling dawa-daru around the world with Elililililililili, I pray you stay in touch foreverâ?¦ Awaiting Goa! :D ...PARTH KAPOOR Neha - One of the first few with whom I interacted on the campus. Post that, there had been numerous short discussion about everything and with each discussion; she will come across as the most sensible girl here. I still remember we decided to go for LIME and ended up only discussing when to meet. With Neha, every small discussion will matter a lot because she will talk sense and ill put you at ease despite all your worries (I still rembr those summer placements days when I ws so tensed) She will always start with, â??Aur, kya chal rha hai â?? and then it will take a natural course of discussion coupled with hints of her grasp on Punjabi language. At so many occasions, I felt lyk borrowing a lil patience frm her. With your talent and down-to-earth nature, I cn see you climbing corporate ladder soon. Wish u luck at lily and looking forward to another of those small conversation time and again â?º ...MAYANK JAIN

Mummy, I haven’t seen a more dedicated and hard-working person in my life than you. That’s something I really like about you. I’ve also not seen a person who’s ever hit me with so many taunts as you’ve had :P All the best for your career and life \m/...SIDDHARTH MATHUR Nidhi, you are my favorite senior. Everytime im stuck anywhere my hand automatically dials your number. Thanks a lot for all your support and guidance in the biggest and smallest of things. your enthusiasm in get-togethers and parties is really heartening. All you ever want in return is some gossip :P... im not even going to wish you goodluck because i know you’ll do wonders. Kick some ass at DB. I am always going to remember you as the super intelligent senior who is always up for some random bakar. i forgot to add the most important thing... someday i am gonna get you drunk and make you dance...itna to banta hai! :P DCE, equiti, Utsaha, Vidisha, DB..bohot tagda connection hai. itni asaani se nai chhodungi :P :*. Stay awesome as always ...SNEHA MAZUMDAR Nidhi, we hardly interacted during the first year and the only perception I had about you was that you were the biggest nerd on campus... but honestly, as I got to know you better, I realized that I was absolutely right... :P :P I have always respected you for the dedication and effort you put in whatever you do... and have always liked you for being so frank and honest. It was really awesome to be your teammate... whether it was all the competitions we ‘almost won’ :P... or the assignments... or the cases.... or the ‘Chai pe Charcha’... I will always regret that we got to know each other so late... :/ but it is really nice to have a good friend like you... Just stay the way you are always and have a great life...!! tu to rahegi nahi... but don’t worry... I will stay in touch.. :P...SHUBHAM SAINI Nidhi, it was great interacting with you during last few months, more so during Utsaha. You were the ‘fun senior’ in the lot. Good luck for your future and keep smiling. Stay in touch. :) BTW uou have been Sabse “LEECHADD” senior, yea Nidhi i acknowledge your thanks; there are more things to life than repeatedly asking asking your juniors for party :P ...PRANAV SEHGAL Maaaate!!! What should I say about you? The first time I interacted with you was during Utsah. And remember what was it about? The free mountain dew which you were not willing to share :p The Utsah weekend was one of the best weekends I spent after I came here in IIM Indore. The entire team really bonded well. Btw thanks for your double treat :p And as Pranav pointed out, aap kabhi thake nahi junior se treat maangte maangte :p Anyway, thoda serious hote hue, it was wonderful talking to you, especially the evening mess waale talks. You were definitely my favorite senior here and I had loads of fun with you. You are a very sweet person and I wish you all the very best for your future. Please do keep in touch aur apne bachchon ko bhoolna mat maate :p :) Cheers! ...AYUSH GUPTA

Better question - “ whr do you see yourself after 6 months” :P If not MBA then : Indian Administrative Service Favourite spot on campus : SR 12 - 323’s balcony, C block Paaji’s room, FPM Block’s terrace Friend groups on campus : Harkirat, Aman, Prince, Khagesh, Vatsal, Arindam, Manku, Ekta, Pooja First crush in the institute : ek ho to bataun Lasting impressions about college : it’s been a roller coaster ride. Every moment spent here was special; be it the parties in my balcony, DJ Nites, section A, late night campus strolls, C block

Sharma, is one of the most interesting and intriguing people on campus :P. He is a guy who does anything and everything for his friends. Lot of memories to recollect with him. I still cherish the times we spent competing against each other at HOP :). He is one of the coolest and genuine guy I have met here. It was great spending over a year and a half together as a Placom team mate. Lots to learn from you. I sincerely hope that we stay in touch after our campus life. ATB man!! Rock RIL...RAHUL S Churan wale baba is the maddest person of C- Block. Needling Prince or Paaji so that they get irritated is one his best past times. I remember the laugh me and Prince had when you repeated your Baba kulfi experience thrice without even missing a beat. Red Dragon is your favorite haunt during this last month of the two years here, after all that y everyone loves your there . Still remember meeting you in the Bakra DJ party and dancing like mad . Your room balcony had provided us with the best venue for our parties. The sweetest high was in your room balcony @ 4am with Sena and Paaji and you snoring away on your bed.....But apart from this Sharma is someone who always stands by his friends and will make it a point to do his utmost to help someone out...stay like this forever and keep in touch...ARINDAM MAJUMDAR Sharma you have been one of the closest to me during our time in placom. There’s a lot that is common in both us - pranks, bitching, bakchodi and more. I can say for sure that if you hadn’t been there along during this tough time in placom, I might’ve not been able to survive it. The way you handle tough situations with recruiters has been something we’ve all learnt from you. Hope to stay in touch with you and wishing you all the best for your career \m/...SIDDHARTH MATHUR Sharma is the Stud of placom. He is one of the most cheerful persons who’ll always be full of energy and enthusiasm. The best part about him is his ability to effortlessly handle tough situations and tough people, an important attribute required in a placecommer. The first memory I have of Sharma was when we were sitting together for one deadly task during the JPC selection process. I’m sure Sharma you’d always remember that epic night. :P I actually got to know Sharma a little more only while working in the office. I really admire his uncanny ability to make instant personal level connection with people. I’ve seen all that by myself and I can vouch for that. One of the best things about this guy is his helpful nature. He’ll always be there to help you if you need someone at 6 in the morning. He can go to any extent to help friends, no matter in how much grave situation they are in. Though he portrays to be tough and all, but Sharma is quite an emotional person. This you can get to know only after spending some time with him. Wish you all the best for your career at Reliance dude! Do keep in touch Mumbai! :) ...SIDDHARTH SINGHAL

And in every walk of my life when faced with a dilemma, I’m gona remember you as the person who taught me to choose that thing which makes me happy!! And stand by it with courage!! It’s you who taught me that life was about being happy, cheerful and smiling not for others but for my own self!!! To you I owe, that smile which spreads on my face, everytime I’m happy!!

The most generous, accommodating and fun-loving person I met on campus.. acha hua tu padosi nikla.. always cheerful, happy-go-lucky kinda guy, eager to bail others out, adventurous, made the RIP n HOP happening n full of masti ;) So u had multiple identities- The guy who drove Endeavour, the party freak, the real (estate) marketer ;) the basic necessity provider for chain-smokers :P the Indian Idol contestant.. Relished many fond memories- ur frustration n desperation to leave the course in the first month itself :P the cowboy hat in RIP, dj parties, the yummy alu bhujiya dish u, roshan n manoj sir prepared in HOP, going to Bhopal on pretext of passport n ultimately buying green tea n coming back :P .. Main toh bahut faida uthaya tera padosi hone ka :P u were always lyk lappy chahiye le ja, tshirt chahiye le le, gloves pasand hai le le, rabdi khaani hai ye le.. really very lucky to have made such a wonderful friend at IIM Indore :) :)...KRIT DOSHI â??Bhai apni soch ek hi type ki haiâ??.....the Harley Davidson freak in campus, who loves to have fun and is always cheerful.He loves his friends to the core (the feelingâ??s mutual bro).....Old Monk fan, and always a good company to hang around with.One thing to like about him in particular is his ability to â??Not-Give-A-Fuckâ?? attitude to certain types of people and certain types of situations(yaad hai bhai bottom 50).....??? ;) Wishing you all the very best of what life has to offer.....always your friend! ï?? ...VISHNU.V.A Day 1 in IIM Indore : BOring Day 2: BOring orientation Day 3: I dont remember the guy I met on day 1, WTF! Day 4: knock on my room and this guy asks “ Dude you got a burger”. I tell him “ FO I just finished the last ‘burger’ .” And thats how I met Nishant Kumar Singh In IIM Indore. Nishant, the guy in next room was the first friend I made in IIM Indore. A very cool and funny guy who liked burgers as much as I did :-D. Nishant has been a supportive friend, both in good and bad times. I am confident that when I grow old and think of a person who was dependable throughout my life, it will be Nishant. It was fun when we walked 4 km to get burgers, played pranks on eachother (though mostly I did on u :-p), studied together,watched mahabharat, played TT ( you mastered it for various unknown reason though :-D), partied like anything and I will always remember these precious moments. You will be grab your dreams for sure in future and make lots of friends, but apne iss dost ko bhool jana ‘mitra’ .I wish you get finest things and people in life (like me O:-) ) and remain the coolest person I have known....TAMBE ABHIJIT DINESH Carefree .. .I guess that is the one word which describes you ..

Full of pride for his culture and heritage.. A guy whom you can always trust and depend upon once you are a friend with him .. good natured and full of fun and humour .. . Always enjoyed outings and parties with you.. Crdit for naming me “Kanchan” also goes to you and Roshan bhai although it didn’t have any logic but saala tumne adat daal hi di iski . ..

Nitin is a true party animal, fun loving and cheerful person.

He is one of the reasons why I even joined this campus in the first place, or at least I make him believe that ;) I really cannot imagine my life here at IIM I without him. It has sort of been a ritual to meet, talk and have meals together everyday. He is a very friendly, fun-loving, caring and helpful guy who is always willing to lend a helping hand to others. He is very resourceful and it sometimes surprises me how he gets difficult things done so easily. I don’t think I can ever forget the never-ending discussions that we have had almost everyday, the dance parties and most of all our full-of-adrenaline FIFA matches. I really thank you for giving me such wonderful memories that I will cherish forever. I am sure you will achieve a lot of success in life and I wish you all the best for that.

I wish the best for you in life and also that you get a little serious about some things as soon as possible (:-P).. am sure you’ll do great at work and even otherwise.. don’t u dare lose touch with me! keep rocking and stay blessed :-)...VARTIKA AGGARWAL

They said leave the best for the last: so I left the best persons testimonial last. You’ve been my best friend on campus for the last 2 years. You’re attitude towards life, the way you look at things and situations is just so different: if only I could do the same, I’d be a happier man. You’re a chameleon in that you can adapt to absolutely any situation and handle it beautifully. You’re a real fighter. You never bow down to situations and I’ve seen you master your devils. Your little frame only does well to hide the extremely strong person behind it. In a few words, you are “chota packet, bada dhamaka” I really think you have grown amazingly over the last 2 years. I have seen you transform from an underperformer to an over-achiever. The last 2 years would never be the same. Thanks a lot for everything!!!...SHAH SOHAM SAMIR ANJANI Niya-IIM I just can’t be imagined without you-I found a neighbour, a friend , a younger sister, an advisor, an ear to listen to, a supporter and the list goes on! We met on day one and then we got the rooms next to each other-I can’t forget the early day so of Ayn Rand Discussions and philosophies and I felt like I saw a younger me,. We ve spent literally all of it with each other’s company- be it you waking me up for class, me asking the rajdhani express to slow down, the innumerous outings, dance and d**r* parties, the evolving friend circles, the fights.I ve seen you transform in these two years -it is admirable how u became one of the acheivers of our batch-it was sheer will, determination, grit and hardwork that you reached those heights # Respect The one thing I love (even when I hate it) is your frankness and no nonsense straightforward nature, I know you will say what you feel even if that is going to hurt -it is such a pleasant diversion from this hypocritical world. Niya you have also been the constant source of fun and entertainment be it the manju quotes, asking you to daato somebody, the one liners, the conspiracy theories, the wide eyed joy at exchanging gossip,the times we ve spent going out, partying, getting smashed and dancing our hearts out.! You are one girl who wants to acheive everything in life (Gordon gekko :P) and who pursues the job of having fun and trying everything with equal dedication. I don’t think I need to mention your competitions-u nailed em babe :) Trust me you are going to make it big and no one will ever after have the guts to say that you are short-cos your big deeds will keep their mouths shut! Lastly no matter what we will always be friends - Niya all the best for your future and a thank you for being there and thank you for teaching me how to take the lemons and making lemonade out of them, for standing up for myself and not letting things go and for your presence in my life! ...MEHTA SALONI URVESH

Vishnu was in the senior team of Utsaha operations, in which I was a junior member. Enjoyed working with him as he was so cool and aplomb in facing problems.

This guy is a fin God,a true blue Maharashtrian and a good source of offensive humour. Really good at discovering talent and saying things frankly. Will really cherish those awesome times spent during Tata Crucible! Stay in touch, sirjee....MRIGANK GUTGUTIA I would describe you as a Simple good hearted person.

Even though he was well known as the FinGod of our batch, I still used to be amazed at how quickly he used to process a bunch of numbers into meaningful financials. I really enjoyed my time as Omkar’s teammate in several competitions and in the process got myself a good friend. I am pretty sure he would make it big in the Finance world. I wish him all the best and I hope to stay in touch with him :) ...Deepak Talluri One of the brightest stars in Fin from section B. I remember how you would sometimes clarify the prof’s doubts in Fin 2. Wish you the best!...SHREYA TANDON Baby-maker as most people call fondly call him. he is cheerful and takes life with a pinch of salt. See you in Mumbai...it’s good knowing you!...SAI PRASANNA KUMAR LAVU Rarest breed of investors who have more or less achieved salvation from ‘Greed and Fear’! I respect you man for your calmness, modesty and intelligence. It was a great experience working with you as part of Voyage Capital and wading though the good and bad times together. Stay in touch and be the way you are. you are definitely going to make us all very very proud. :)...VIVEK THEBARIA Omkar, Mastero in Fin. I never forget those days, we had lot of masti, games during class in section B,Your seat was just after me. Your helping attitude, jokes ‘’salute u sir’’. Keep in touch buddy Md.

First!!! Yes, this post will be filled with a lot of troll/meme refrences. The year is 2014 btw, memes are still in fashion. ( ͡° Í?Ê? ͡°) Oye, I still don’t know what idanim does. (Watch out, we got a club member here). I have known this guy for about 7 years and we still don’t run out of things to talk about. One of the few people on campus who can match my range of TV/movie/comic/cartoon viewing experience. True Story. Don’t let his description of himself fool you, he is really a good writer. I hope to read a novel written by him one day, that will truly be legen-wait for it-dary, LEGENDARY! Let’s keep our promise and really meet up in Mumbai when we return this time. (â??ï¾?ã?®ï¾?)â?? â??(ï¾?ã?®ï¾?â??) Oh yeah, Brace youselves, trolls are coming.//Promises to come for the party next time... never comes.// Y U No come?// ಠ_ಠ// Not sure if busy or lazy// Bro...do you even WRECK?// REKHIT// FUUUUU. ¯\_(ã??)_/¯ Peace, Bi***! ...NAVTEJ VERMA rekhit, always smiling, always showing his teeth. i always wondered if he is having more than 32 teeth. hehehe. but behind his beautiful smile lies a creative person who not only knows how to convert it into a dish edible for any1 but he acknowledge other people creativity as well. i always felt good to be around u coz i saw u working on novel, story. which is sth different from others. remember art is source of happiness so always keep it close to u wherever u reach and dont worry about what ppl say, in the end it always u who is standing alone. a good friend and i should say a good person. i hope achieve all the gr8 heights in life but plz dont write whatever u write on piece of paper. write it on laptop or tabs. keep :) Reckitt ...ABHIJEET SINGH Still not sure if your name starts with Pacha or Pancha, if it’s the latter I’ll never get the ‘nch’ sound right :P So, I’ll stick to Tintin, or hey, ‘fresher’ :P That always gets your goat man :D We have hung out a lot man! I’ve known you to be a sensitive, friendly and an introverted geek. And the one of two people on campus who can pull of self-deprecating humor best :) Will remember the movies, the hangouts and our team-up in the utter decimation of Barwa that day ;) You have some creative inclinations, I won’t call them publishing-level material yet :P Lets not hold that against you so early, it was honest and signature ‘you’! Keep that part alive, keep writing, and hey, stay in touch man! Will still call you fresher even 5 years down the line! :D...Avinash Chidambar Rekhit is a cool dude and has a charming personality. We had good time doing ETA assignments and since then I have known him in a better way. I guess our choice of electives are similar and hence land up in same section most of the time ;) He is a fun filled and cool person to hang out. I wish him all the very best for his future endeavors in life!!!...SAURAV DEMTA

If you are suffering from a headache, heartache, bouts of depression or plain old fatigueyou don’t need to visit a doctor. Seek out Palak Mahanot and all these problems will be taken care of. A person who brings a smile to my face every time I see her(that’s why I call her Sunshine), Palak is the cutest kid next door you’ll find. My first impressions of her are best kept secret, but the more I’ve known her, the more I’ve grown fond of her. Never one to miss a chance to dance, she’s certainly been given an extra dose of creativity by the almighty. Watching her cry was one of the worst moments of my IIM life (though you have to admit she looks cute when she does :P) and I would give whatever limited pennies I have to ensure that the smile on her face sustains. Correctly described by people as the glue that holds our group together, she’s the favourite Party starter. Our Shopping + Pizza Hut dates during IV in first year became a custom I grew extremely fond of, and while together we often adopt the adage of ‘Shop till you drop’. A combination of beauty with brains, Goldman Sachs will be beaming presently to have acquired such a prized asset. I wish you all the happiness and god times in life, with just a small request-Keep Smiling! ...APAL Palak! I think I found a younger sister here in IIM Indore. Perhaps my first friend here. One of the very first person I met here (infact before coming here only we met in train :p). I am glad that we did. I really cherish each and every moment I spent with you. So many fun facts, sharing stupid tv shows and cracking double meaning jokes all the time :D But For me our friendship was always about more than having fun. I seldom open up to people emotionally. But you are one person with whom I did :) And I am thankful to god for that. I mean it. I love being your elder brother when you come to me with you tensions. Not that I want you to be tensed ..hehe.. but I can’t tell you how good I feel when I can calm you down or may be help you out in whatever way I can. You really are a gem of a person. You are that important piece which held our group together. When you smile you bring smile to a lot of phases. The kid of our group which I really love to have in my life. Last but not the least am sorry if I ever did not treat you in the best possible way I could have. I hope you understand how stupid a person I am at times and mere nakhre bhi koi kam nai hai. But really, Saath main rahiyo humesha. And It’s a promise next time I come to Delhi I am coming to your place :D. I know it’s due since a very very long time now. Humesha hasti rahiyo ladki. Future toh tera accha hona hi hai :D. Usme koi shak hai nai. Phone par chapad chapad karne ki aadat mat chodiyo kabhi. Hehe. :P Call karti rahiyo. Pareshaan karti rahiyo. Bas yahi chahiye. I really wish you all the happiness and success from all my heart. :)... Ishan Rishabh Kansal

PD.....the formal wear man of Planet I...it is your distinct identity. I doubt whether I have seen you wearing a jeans...okk jokes apart you are a completely different person. Tere padhai ke bareme kya hi kehna...padhaku ladka...One thing anyone would say about you is the meticulousness shown by you for any task...your notes were very helpful ...and you were the last minute saviour for all our queries...thanks a lot for it bhai : ) . I enjoyed our fights on small topics be it related to studies or some other things...it was fun to tease you for some of your habits....Our Journey at IIM Indore was wonderful. Wish you all the best for your career !! Bhulna matt !!...ANIKET YEVALKAR Pankaj Dhingra ~ a J-block Johnny.... One of my first friends on IIM campus...n also one of the most sincere guys at Planet-I. This guy would alert us of MT/ET exams even if they were a month away :P ....No doubt exceptionally good in academics and extremely hard-working. I will definitely miss the unnecessary post-dinner ‘trips’ to PI-shop (that too daily :P ) You are one guy who would take any prank played on u in good spirits....I really appreciate this quality of yours as very few people possess it..I will remember the funny nicknames you gave to Chitresh, Kamra, Hitesh....!! I wish u all the luck,success n happiness in life......n do kip in touch .....Cheers!!!! ...KARAN RATHOD Cogni Consultant Chadha - the hunk, stud, bond, casanova of Planet-I :D You were one of the rare few people here who studied each and every course with equal sincerity. Even though I may tease you about it, its an aspect of you I truly respect. One to start worrying about exams the moment they were announced, and completing assignments even before they were assigned :D. Even though I’m always pulling your leg, you always take it the right way. And I still hope you would reveal to me the secret recipe of that pi-shop cake, and also hope to see you some day wearing jeans. The hard-work that you put in would surely take you to great heights. Best of luck :)...KARANDEV SINGH KAMRA Dhingu!! the fashion icon of Planet-I. He is the kind of guy who can speak for hours on what’s happening in the country but is totally oblivious of everything on campus. Being tensed about not having something to be tensed about -> classic Pankaj. Teasing you has easily been half of my conversations with you ..ohh the fun that I had. But it’s ok, even you never let a chance go by. I’ve always admired you for your sincerity towards studies and your willingness to help me with topics hours before the exams. I’ll miss the long post dinner walks, the unnecessary trips to pi shop (where u rarely bought anything) and the routine dinner mails. I cannot thank you enough for being a big part of my memorable stay at IIM Indore. I wish you all the happiness and success in life and hope that life takes you places, cos lets be real...we all know how much of an enthusiastic traveller you are.. Keep in touch ..always!!...Chitresh Singh

Pankaj was the best neighbor I could have had for the last 2 years. I could just barge into his room at any hour and ask for whatever I wanted. I remember feeling very bad that our neighbors would change infront of one of our mutual friends in Mumbai, but it turned out that I was lucky enough to have him as my neighbour again. I always wondered how could he remain so calm at all points of time. Though we were Fin aspirants, we did our case preparation together, and I was quite happy to see you crack such a good company. I wish you had got placed in Mumbai too, but we ll definitely stay in touch :) ...Deepak Talluri Kolte (as you are fondly called) is someone who is very hard working and ambitious person. From being my junior at VJTI ( though we did not know each other much then), you became one of my first and close friends at IIM I. Still remember those QT sessions you took for Mate, Abhish and me :) apart from other fun times (weekend parties, RIP, etc) You always strive hard for achieving your goals and the results are for everyone to see (competitions, placements) !! I wish you always keep your this spirit up and go on miles to fulfil your ambitions!! Have a great life ahead..it’s waiting for you ;) cheers!...RAHUL YADAV Pankaj is someone I got to know in the third term when both of us were a part of the marketing simulation course. We all tried to figure out the simulation but we were at sixes and sevens. Came last in it and got horrific grades. But what I admired since then is his sincerity and drive. Come PGP2, we started interacting more because we were a part of the same committee. Teaming up with him for War Room meant working together at Tejas’s room which was our conclave. One of the greatest things about Pankaj is how he can get people to rally for a cause-winning War Room being the one in this case. His drive and sincerity be it from making visits to Jalgaon for primary research or getting his friend to make a video for the finals bear ample testimony to his professionalism and focus. Going to Mumbai for the finals, staying in the Grand Hyatt (had to mention this :P) and being in the company of Utkarsh and Tejas was clearly one of the greatest memories of my time here. Still remember you being stressed when you got a S&O shortlist from Deloitte and you said that you had not even started preparing for finals. But you cracked it in the first shot itself which just goes to show your aptitude and ability. Have a rocking career ahead and be a stud consultant. Wish you loads of luck. Cheers!!!!!!...SAYAN BAGCHI Kolte..if it wouldnâ??t have been for you I wouldnâ??t have passed a lot of courses in Planet-I. QT-1 for sure. I could see you pulling your hair teaching me QT, thanks bhai! All four of us had an awesome time in I block, then Guna, then C block. Your no-nonsense attitude and dedication to everything is just amazing. You were a very big helping hand when I was down and out during some portions of my stay here. How did you stand through Mate and me for these two years? Ab toh tu kaise bhi logon ke saath reh sakta hai bey! Delloite ka CEO ban, jaldi Mumbai shift ho fir majaich maja :)...Abhish Nair

Soni was my term 1 group mate - most worried about the assignments :P.

I will always admire you for your patience, maturity and baba wala gyan. You are amazingly well read and its always fun to discuss history or for that matter any general knowledge stuff with you as you always have so much to tell. Bas thoda plz lessen your sleeping duration and be a bit more organised and responsible. otherwise toh you are a perfect gentleman. I am sure we will stay in touch. God bless you !!!...AANCHAL GOYAL Calm and thoughtful person and a fierce friend of mine. I met you during the first day of IIM I interviews and your entry.. mashallah!!! Worthy of remembrance We both got through and we both became so nice friends. Thanks for all the pep talk at times. You do enrich me as a person. Your confidence is something which taught me to be fearless.. and the fun we had in RIP, RD,PD rooftop, my room, your room always had an intelligent quotient. Every discussion was always so GYAAAN-se-BHARA-HUA!! Stay in touch, Stay sharp. All the best for your future endeavours ...SANKALPA SARKAR I got to know Pankaj through the numerous group assignments in term 2 and marketing simulation in term 3. Assignments me, Pankaj would either be missing-in-action, or else he would do the entire work on his own! Simulations me he was able to keep a cool head even though our score was tanking. The best thing is that he doesn’t take disagreements personally. A calm and friendly person. Wish you the best!...SHREYA TANDON A friendly and outgoing person. It was knowing you and interacting with you, Pankaj. Wish u a very successful and healthy life ahead..All the best!!!...SHETTI SRIDEVI ASHOK Pankaj is a very chilled out and level headed guy and one can have long conversations with him over a plethora of topics. We played tennis together in the 1st year and while he was undoubtedly passionate about the sport, his passion was not matched by his abilities :P Always a major contributor to the class discussion, especially in strategy classes, his knowledge level and his friendly nature will take him far in his future career.Best of luck bhai!...MRIGANK GUTGUTIA

What fascinates me about Parag is his sheer enthusiasm for learning and constant improvement. I haven’t seen a moment when his curiosity and hunger for knowledge has flagged or a time when he is switched off to what is happening around him.

Extremely helpful and (over)friendly guy who is fin and marketing expert rolled into one. Cracks the worst PJs in the history of humanity and of course is the only one who laughs at them. He is a very happy person by nature and is always seen smiling. He is often found making references of assorted body parts but surprisingly he still has a girlfriend. A good friend who never gives treats, I believe there is a high probability that I will miss the times spent together with him together in RIP and during our other trips together. Stay in touch bro! ...MRIGANK GUTGUTIA Very simple, soft-spoken and genuine....that’s how I would sum up Parag. Extremely selfindulgent, he can spend hours in his room talking to some friend, likes to make trips to the city alone and even enjoys it....He has an inclination towards Fin but I have always felt that he should go into Sales given his demeanour and the good sponsorship work he does.... Hope to see more of you in Delhi and wish you all the success in life :) ...RUDRASHIS ROY This guy is very simple from outside, but dimaag mein to pata nahi kya-kya chalta haiâ?¦Stay in touchâ?¦ Wishing you all the success in life.. :)...PRAKHAR PORWAL The Parag: A very friendly and helpful person, he is always eager to help you..Bakchodi mein expert hai but jokes bahut gande maarta hai aur fir khud hi hasta hai.Ppt banane mein kaafi tez hai. He is also hardworking. We have been good friends from the very beginning and he has been my neighbor from the first year. Jab colg aaya tha bahut hi siddha sadha bacha tha but yahan logon ne ise bigaad diya:) He has also realized a lot of hidden talents in himself after coming here:) Best of luck bhai and have a great life ahead..Keep in touch:)... ATISHAY KUMAR JAIN Poddar, we have shared some great moments in this campus apart from sharing the same name. I must say that you are unmatched in terms of your crying abilities :P You are a great friend and I cant thank you enough for the support during tough times (you know what I mean). And I do remember that I have to give you a big party. Have a great life ahead :)... Parag Jain “Jaana tha Japan pahunch gaye Cheen” This line suits you perfectly. Always trying to do all things in one go :D Well jokes apart...You are a very chilled out person (becoz u give your work to others :P )..I wonâ??t say exactly intelligent :P but yes you are hardworking and a total “JUGAAD” person. You are very smart (not personality wise :P) to achieve great things in life...I was amazed at ur random CPs in first year...that too after sleeping in class :P ....All the best and do well in life :)..Stay blessed and keep smiling.....NAVNEET KAUR

Paras or Ramji as he is usually known as. Finance god, cleared all 3 levels of CFA in first attempt, which speak volumes about him! We really hit off well during first term at college. A really helpful person. I remember he would teach all of us Accounts and every time after a concept was taught, I would pop up with a silly doubt since I wouldnâ??t be listening to him in the first go :D but he would patiently answer that (even though furious inside) :P On another occasion, we had a QT quiz the next day and I had no clue about the syllabus, but I went to his room at 4 AM in the morning and he still helped me with the subject, which helped me sneak a 3.47 (my best individual subject CG till date) in it! Also, very sincere and professional about things he takes up (War Room and Philips Blueprint in year 1, I remember he would sincerely call up meetings and do his part of work, though did not get much help from rest of us) :P One of those guys with whom you can have genuine discussions regarding most of the things, Iâ??m sure you will go places with your abilities. Have fun dude :)...ISHAN BOSE Ramji !! A very humble and down to earth person as his name! ;) . Still remember those Accounting sessions you took in your room in C block, which helped us pass. Excellent knowledge of finance and excellent communication skills. I also owe you my intern-ship! Can never forget that it was you who explained me in 30 minutes what to answer to those typical finance questions being asked and Adhit was in a awe when he came to know that the very same questions were asked! :) Had a lot of fun (Section A, Mumbai bus trips, those Gurukripa parties in PGP1, that one trip to Balle Balle :D , those late night table tennis sessions! , and obviously when I came to your place in France and we scared the shit out of those people by cooking dal in that cooker :)) :) But trust me you are a true inspiration Ashish! There are few persons in our batch whom we look upto and you are one of them!! Thanks once againfor everything. Hope to stay in touch... when one day you will be an investment banker at a leading firm ;) cheers...RAHUL YADAV My first impression of you was so very wrong. I actually thought of you as a very serious, no-nonsense person. Now I know you as the cupid who always gets the wrong combination together :p Someone who laughs at people for going to the library and then meets them right there :p I will never forget the number of times you inquired for my Boston seat. That was the sweetest thing ever! :D You have always been such a sport for all my silly pranks (even after knowing it’s me you play along :p) You might have taught fin to umpteen number of people on campus but I am sure I was your toughest student :p Thanks for being such an amazing friend. And yes, you are the smartest guy I have ever met ;) ...SONIKA KHURANA

Parth was my senior at school...dunno why but I remember him as a sotta rough chap, even a bit snobbish. However, I have no doubt I am wrong given what I have seen of him here. Either this or the world has changed...remember meeting him on the first day at campus here...all plump, well-oiled hair and a moustache (total Uncle-look :P)....total contrast to what I remember of him from C.M.A. I really admire the way he has improved himself over time, very few people are able to do that. From a decent student at C.M.A., he went on to become college topper, landed a job at Deloitte, then IIM-I and a very impressive batch rank here. Yes, he does have a star sister to take inspiration from but it was his effort completely which got him the accolades. We have become very good friends over the last year....we keeps giving each other this gyaan on stuff like what the other should be doing in life, what is “logical”, what is not. He has this extremely laid-back, last-minute kinda attitude which he says works for him, but I am not very sure about it. He is an extremely helpful and kind guy, he has had to me bear my noob-ness with tech stuff and has always helped me smilingly though I know he would have got irritated on quite a few occasions. He is a friend you would like to have for the rest of your life coz you know he would always be out there to support you....Wish you all the success in life, mate :) And yes, for any ticket booking on IRCTC, contact Parth Kosada :P...RUDRASHIS ROY An ultra intelligent guy- that’s what I know certainly... You are one person whom I have never seen study much but who has always excelled esp Fin which most of us are scared of... HOP forms one of the best memories I have.. I still remember all those tashan poses given by you and rudrashis ... btw I never knew about your athletic stamina until HOP (always thought u just joked about 5 kms running.. :P) The genuine, upfront and cooperative attitude of yours makes it easy for anyone new to interact with you...Be the way u r... Hope to see you as Investment Banker (you seriously deserve that...) Cheers! :)...VIBHUTI AGARWAL He is as sweet as a gujju can get :P. I would have never crashed a wedding if it’s not for you :D (RIP times)....It’s good knowing you!...SAI PRASANNA KUMAR LAVU Parth is super Intelligent, smart, considerate and friendly. He’s a person filled with nicety and compassionate of others problem and difficulties. Personally, I feel lucky to be in the same seating row(last bench) and RIP-Seoni group with him. He also has exhibited a superior leadership skills during our short trip at Seoni. Despite the fact that he’s not being very chatty, it is still always fun to hang around him. I hope he continues to stay smart, innocent and considerate in many years to come. I really wish him luck, fortune and prosperity in life. :)...VANLALROSIAMA RALTE

Pandu.. That’s what I prefer calling you. Don’t know y but it was fun :D. You are one of the most chilled out guy I have met here. Always having fun, cracking jokes and smiling. And your Dance moves toh mashallah. Ladakiya sharma jaaye :P. I really had a great time with you buddy :). Be it class parties, listening and dancing at your rooms, to endless number of food outings and our Class row. :D Can’t remember a single moment with you in it but fun missing from it. Anyways, Always keep smiling the same way bro :). Do not lose touch. Good luck for your future :)...Ishan Rishabh Kansal

Everyone has one sotta “know-it-all” friend on campus....Panda fits that very well for me (ya, he does source a lot of it from his very interesting wing :P). He is a completely chilled-out guy... absolute dude. Our get-togethers have always been alive with Panda’s insanely good and curvy Zumba moves (Vidya Balan sharma jayegi, seriously!), stories about his crushes, all the gossip he has about what is happening around on campus.....A very different side of Partha came out during RIP...very responsible, single-handedly handling the rest of us lazy bums...which got him the title of 4P (put that in your nickname)..We share this craving for KFC....He is an extremely fun person to hang out with....Really miss the gossiping and bitching we used to have back at PaatalLok....Have a great life ahead, buddy and keep smiling, it’s infectious :)...RUDRASHIS ROY Panda....the complete friend....daaru mai saath dega....khaane mai dega....rooftop parties pe dega...bakar karni hai to sahi hai....tennis ke liye ready....kuch bhi bolo mana nahi karta...Best dancer of our college...best quizzer (ok i have doubts in that one :P)...best smile...chicken lover (kitna khaa sakta hai be :P)...shakal se jitna seedha, actual mai utna hi chalu...campus ki happenings aur ladkiyon ka encyclopedia hai....aisa kuch nahi jo Panda doesnt know...lekin jab bhi poocho, to wahi smile and answer - “Kyun kya hua..mujhe pata hi nahi”.....his favorite line “abe chal lunga par kuch khaana/peena nahi hai”....Creative ideas ka God hai.....Planning to the minutest detail and fir bolna “MC mai kuch nai karta iss baar :p”....Panda it was a pleasure spending all tht time with you and praks...doing things (sometimes legal sometimes not :D)...Yaar humne saath padhai kam masti zyada ki hai....tere saath ghnaton baat kar sakte hai aur fir bhi baatein khatam na ho...Hope to continue with this in Mumbai also....Girls of Mumbai beware...waha panda aa rha hai....looking fwd to our time together in Mumbai....all the best in life bhai....and please never let tht smile go :)...PUNIT GUPTA We were looking at Summers shortlists, and one name always seemed to push its way into them-Partha Pratim Panda. That’s how Panda came into my yellow spot. Though we had been classmates for a while, our interactions started only in 2nd year, and I have no qualms in admitting that my IIM life would have been dour and utterly boring if you were not around. Partha “Tu mera Hero!” :P He brings about an infectious surge of energy and positivity with his million dollar smile. An Oriya to the core, Panda KFC ke liye kuch bhi karega. He was the life of section parties, DJ nights, Birthdays and all outings, and hence 5th term parties were not the same anymore. Always my go to person when I wanted to lighten my mood(or get it back on track), Panda acts as a soothing balm to worries Wish you the very best and keep rolling :)...APAL

Never ever stop being a successful GOONER (except EPL :) ) - Bismayy ...BISMAYY MOHAPATRA PK, gem of a person. Always willing to pitch in and never to shy away from any responsibility. Though I knew you from the football pitch, but I realized the person you were when you worked with me for Marathon. I was astounded by your sincerity and selflessness. Though I always keep bragging about me being a team player, you would beat me hands down in team work. I took you in my IBL team not for your basketball prowess (:p) but because I knew you would give your best and do whatever necessary for the team (even being benched :D). Would remember the number of times I kicked your arse in football and basketball! :D. One person I would definitely like to stay in touch with. Wish you the best man :)...KARANDEV SINGH KAMRA The Football Super Star who converted I-Block to a football field :D Regardless , Pavan is a very good natured person, a great team player and I also like the fact that he keeps things very simple. As his block-mate , I enjoyed discussing several topics like EPL and Fantasy football with him. I hope we will stay in regular contact in Bangalore :) ...Deepak Talluri Fake smile :P - first thing you notice on his face. He messes up his vocab with a mix of hindi and english - hilarious at times. became Arena secy (just coz i came down :P). A decent (or rather okish...) DoTA player. It’s really tough to get him angry (tried a lot of times, in vain)... It’s good knowing you!...SAI PRASANNA KUMAR LAVU Calm. This is the only good word that i could associate with you. A mix of sheepish smile, spineless attitude and meticulous planning that ultimately backfires is pavan bhai :P. I still dont understand your hindi...dude admit it....you cant speak hindi. I love your attitude of trying to play football :P . I would never forget how you actually divided the bill in that restaurent in nainital. On the other hand I find discussions with you very enlighting. You give an allround perspective of every detail. Also you are open to others opinions that makes you a very nice person. I like your company and would definetly meet you in future (coz we are joining the same company, i will be forced to meet you :P ). Chal bhai bangalore mein milte hain....B AVINASH GUPTA PK is the super stud of our batch. A wonderful football player who bugs every guy to play football whenever there is shortage of players in I-block. Being the Arena Secy He is also gaming God of our batch. AOE, Fifa, DoTA, Counter Strike -You name it. He is a very chilled out person who likes to hang out with friends. I had the privilege of working in some groups with PK (Yes, He did not free-ride).

Piyush, an epitome of calmness and composure is the go-to-man for any kind of worry. A.k.a. “Pussar”, Piyush has been never spotted as tensed or worried. The moment you step into his room, you would feel like entering into a museum with scores of trophies and medals. Piyush is a complete package with ground to earth personality. ...LOKESH CHANDRA AGRAWAL Piyush..the most irritating person on this planet!! But also my best pal on campus :) We met during our 2nd term group assignments and I found you very straightforward and truthful. Whatever you have on your mind you simply say that without altering a bit. You are very caring, helpful and trustworthy as a person which you never realize. Once I questioned about your friendship in anger but that was not true actually. I have always respected our â??dostiâ?? and will always do. You are an all-rounder after me :P, be it sports like TT, Volley, Cricket or dance(kuchipudi..hahaha) or above all â??the padhaiâ?? which I am not good at.. :P We always start our conversation with a normal chat but that always converts into arguments, We both have different chemical composition of minds that triggers us to put a gag on each other, We fight over non sense things, hardly making any sense otherwise.. but still we know that â??we will be normal after a whileâ??...:P You are the one to whom I go first for all technical helps (in my language) and I know you will never refuse me. I am not very expressive about my personal matters and worries but you force me to do that also.. We have had great times together.. and it makes me blessed since I came to recognise you, know you, got you.. Nobody can find a better friend than you.. words are less to describe you. You are smart and intelligent (just like me :P) but I never say it in your presence (aree..bcz kahin tum chadhh naa jaao zyada). Always be like this and smile..:) I am sure about your colourful and sparkling future, but formality ke liye bol deti hu- All the best and stay in touch..:)...NIKITA SHARMA

The most interaction I had with you was in the third year of IIT Roorkee, at the time when you were trying to save your â??ijjatâ?? from a certain someone called Upinderjeet Singh:D. Back then, I could not have believed if someone had told me that you would be one of the few persons with whom I would have majority of interaction at IIM Indore. I still remember I was kind of relived with my decision to join IIM Indore when I saw you in the â??Final Converts- IIM Indoreâ?? FB group:-P. A true friend, who has always had my back and a very humble person is what I would like to add to his already astonishing resume, itâ??s sometimes hard to believe that one person can do so many things. Seriously, I have never seen you boasting about anything and this is a rare quality :-). You are destined to go the best of the places my friend, all the best!...GHOLAP GAURAV ANIL Ghissu Gulati Intro: Day 1- Hi, lets meet at <some ungodly hour> and finish work (showing full enthu with bakra assign), After 2 years - Abe yaar padne ka bilkul mann nahi h (showing enthu on last few days on campus!:P)..Tu kabhi nahi badlega :/.. You are are one hard working, focused, stubborn fellow..not to mention that legendary multi-tasking skill of yours! I still wonder how you managed to slog at office, ace all exams, do n live projects, n+1 competitions and still found time to hangout with us!..About competitions.. LOL!..team Noob-I definitely holds the record for maximum “Registrations but no Submissions” :P ..Thanks for being there for me through all the good and the no-so-good times :)..and for all the fundae/advise sessions on life/work/phone you and gholap made me sit through (:P), I really appreciate it :) Am sure you will be kicking asses in your career and will make us all very proud :) Good luck! -H...ROHINI H Gulati- The amount of times I bug you in a day is enough to give you an indication as to how much you are going to be missed after college! Like Yelli, I regret having hardly interacted with you in the first year. But the second year, was more than enough to make up for it. We bonded our common frustrations, similar dreams, and Drinking Water. :P You’ve always been the Consultant, be it figuratively or literally. Whether it is your friends, juniors, or even seniors, your opinions and advises have always been sought after. I would like to thank you for several times listening to my random rant and frustrations throughout the year! I frankly feel that you should just live and settle down in Faridabad because that’s the only way that you will feel satisfied and not frustrated. Anyway, you are so good that whatever you desire you are bound to get, so wish carefully :). Cheers!...TANMAY LALIT TAPASE Gulati is like this uber-cute superman. I’m not really sure if he sleeps at all. Aces all courses, attends all meetings ( well, lately has been seen doing a lot of free-riding)and is always on top of things. He’s very world-ly and has the answer to all my questions. I’m always going to haunt him with my “Gulati ek baat bata na.”...ANKITA SATIJA

A simple and sober girl who has been a great friend , Pooja to sahi hai yaar.. you have been one of those people jiske sath kabhi bhi koi bhi baat kar sakte ho.. aur han tera phone kaise bhul jayu.. bechare ki jaan le rakhi hai tune.. ab to change karle... apple fan like me... all the very best for your career ahead.. hope tjhe chennai mile.. taki firangi nahi.. thodi indian ban jaye.. :P...SIDHANT SACHDEVA Pooja likes to shop. Almost everything. The number visits she takes to buy a single dress takes a lot of pain. i know that very well because I have been a part of such painful numerous visits. The anita dongre dress from shoppers stop to the cornitos from easyday we bought them all. Such were the good times which I got to spend in the first year with the first friend at IIM I. The fab india tea tree face wash to the properly beaten coffee, she takes her preferences very seriously. And that exactly is what impresses me the most. It would be great if you can thank me for the fin classes I took in I 219 :P. You are a wonderful person to be with. I am sure you are going to have a lot of fun in the times ahead. Happy for you. Cheers Hotsie!! ...RAHUL NAGDEV Juggu - first my section mate then a fellow culcomer and finally a great friend. We’ve shared some kickass times including your “I am so highhhh “ :P I know for sure that no matter what you will always be out there whenever I need a friend. You are by far the prettiest chick on campus - trust me ;) Your infectious smile creates so much positivity around. Stay the way you are. Keep in touch and all the best for your consulting career in CHENNAI :p ...SIDDHARTH MATHUR The “Juggunator” - Pooja, I honestly don’t know how you managed to run Gordian Knot with me in your team. Right from throwing that little yellow sponge ball to putting a clothes clip on your nose, you always put up with my antics and still managed to put across that beaming smile of yours. I had a lot of fun both working and just generally hanging out with you. You were a real sweetheart on several occasions (despite all the waxing jokes during Kaya) and a really awesome person to work with. All the best! :) ...VIVIAN PAUL GONSALVES Pooja meri jaan..’beauty’ is your synonym- you possess a beautiful heart and a beautiful face.. sone pe suhaga!! It was lucky to have you at IIM-I.. You know the real meaning of friendship..you are loving and caring.. we always have had a special bonding between us.. whether it is the two sleeping girls in Section-D, dance partners at Section parties, gym partners for sometime, gossiping around the lecture breaks, fun during Utsaha, and many more I am forgetting.. It’s always fun and laughter when you are around.. A real beauty with brain combination.. I am glad to be your friend..:) and want you all through my life..:) Wish you all the happiness and success in your life..:) Stay in touch..:)...NIKITA SHARMA

PK, Yes, you have been a great friend and support. We have spent innumerable moments together at IIMI. And hopefully, we’ll continue to be great friends after college also. But there are few, in fact, very few people, who can command the respect. And surely you are one of them. The depth and toughness of your personality can only be known once someone is friend with you. And its amazing. As the saying goes, “You are a MEN among the BOYS”....ARPIT TANDON A great friend to tag along with. thanks for all the notes uve given me dude. For all the Badminton matches we’ve played, for all the parties we’ve had. thanks for always being there when i needed. A calm and pleasing personality, infact ive always been a bit jealous of u wondering how u manage to always keep your cools... hope to always be in touch ...PULI HARICHANDAN Prabhu!!! you are the most amazing personalities that I came across in my entire life.... The calmness and the composure that you maintain .. no one can teach them to anyone.... Respect for that...... Ive learned a lot from though I did not say it out loud before but this is the time Id like to share this... The badminton matches that we have had and the parties our christmas celebrations time... will always stay in my heart... keep in touch buddy:) ...GALI STEPHEN STANLEY Prabhu, my alumnus from IIT-M is ‘the most decent IITian’ I’ve ever met ....he always strictly goes by the book, the unusual IITian :P I find him to be lil shy to talk to gals whom he admires a lot... very kind hearted, helpful, and often makes witty remarks... a cautious travel planner and undoubtedly the best cricket fielder...Prabhu, I wish u all the very best for ur career and my advance congratulations for ur marriage!!! :) Keep in touch...!!! ...HARISH SARVA You are one person who enjoys the little things in life. I know how happy u get pretending innocent, talking silly stuff, imitating others and making faces. When you read this later, I want you to recall that only one thing we had a common opinion about :P Keep smiling (and blushing as usual :P). Remember you are Salman Khan to some and Mickey Mouse to others, yet dear to all ;)...KROTHAPALLI RAMYA

U became their universal brother, so ..:P Remember the difference in opinions we used to have during our nonsense discussions in summers-- That’s why U stand out and I respect you for that.. Keep that spirit (high) bhai! Good luck ahead!! ...BISMAYY MOHAPATRA Barwa! Or rather, Pinkie ‘Thor’ H****a the 12th! :D HAHAHA! One of only 3 chutiya friends I have! Super critical, major aggressive f*** who epitomizes the kind of jaded nature that results of being a know-it-all (movies, games, anime only of course! :P) tempted me to kick your ass so many times but the rare times when we agree on something that laughter and high fives more than made up for it :D I thought you were the only guy on campus who knew more about the comics universe and recent movies, I wanted to beat you there (you know I’m competitive sometimes, remember Aarklash? :)) but this was your victory handsdown, cuz dude! there was no way I could’ve beat the amount of time you spent on youtube, 9-gag and the usual bc ;) Esp. remember the karaoke sessions, dbz ost marathons, your irritating commentary whenever our group watched flicks, eating at Pi, Jam and the mess whenever we went for evening snacks (this was too much for me, now you know why I used to dodge these!) Wish you the best and life experiences that make you a little less jaded (though I think this is a facade you have for our benefit sometimes, cuz someone has to play this role in the group eh ;)) We’ll defo stay in touch!...Avinash Chidambar Pradeep, one of the most calm person I have ever seen [But I heard he becomes very passionate while playing game], was with him during RIP & we did definitely have some fun times :-)..very helpful person [Would always help me in downnloading files on DC :d] ..Glad to have a friend like you, Wishing you all the very best for future :-)...PANKAJ DHINGRA Barwaaaaaa.........kya kahun iske baare mein, dude u r definitely one of my best friends. This guy looks like a lazy free rider, but dont go on his looks:P He is really passionate about whatever he does. The guy runs Idanim and DC alone. Bhai isne jitni movie, anime, songs, tv series aur na jaane kya kya dekh-sun rakha hai ki isse jeeta nahi ja sakta (ask Chidambar and Rekhit). Tera room apne pure group ka hang out spot hai. Bhai tune itni horror movies dikhai hain hum sab ko, seriously i will miss the late night movie mania a lot. Itne saare outings, itni saari long walks, canteen bakar, room bakar, walk pe bakar,Metal Slug, Contra, South Park, Family Guy aur duniya bhar ki nautanki, yaar second year kaise nikal gaya pata hi nahi chala. You are one of those people who know a lot about me and i am glad to say that you are someone i can always depend on. You are among the select few who understand my meme or sarcastic language. Btw. PINKY, you missed some of your nick names in the form there:P. Brother i wish you the very best in all your future endeavours. Apan to milte hi rahenge.

One of the most humble, down to earth and focused people I have ever met. A great human being, always ready to help and share experiences. Thank you for being there as an adviser and showing me the right way. Will miss you!!...ALTAMASH ASLAM Our friendship started after Meghwant’s 26 hill party, when we decided to go on exchange together. The same day when you and Meghwant were playing stereo on high volume and I was afraid that the officer will catch us. I enjoyed your company every moment on this campus ( despite of all the occasional mood swings and ups and downs you had :P). I will call you a highly disciplined person with clearly defined goals, and definitely your discipline helped me a lot especially during exams when I wanted to know what exactly was coming in the subject. Not to forget, the wonderful time we had during Exchange and long talks regarding placements when we were worried. Whenever I was troubled (especially during first year related to disturbances in my life) it was only you to whom I use to come. It was really great to have a person like you PKM on this campus with me. Be in touch always...SHADAB ALI SIDDIQUI I am lucky to have friend like you. As fate would have it, we got drunk at 26 hill together and our friendship blossomed. You have always been a great person to have debates with despite your low meting point:-). Your discipline is the stuff of legends. Keep off the salt :-) , let loose and have some fun.Stay in touch. ...MEGHWANT SINGH THAKUR Pradumn comes across as one of the simple, sincere, straightforward, no-nonsense sort of guys. He would often start speaking off with a smile typical to him. I know him mostly through Meghwant because of student exchange, and what I am really amazed about is the level of preparedness of this guy, who just within 15 odd days of coming back from Europe (when most of us were out of touch with the scheme of things) cracks one of the high profile Pharma jobs here on campus. Much appreciate that. Wish you good luck in life. Have fun and stay blessed :)...ISHAN BOSE Pradumn! If you donâ??t know him personally, there is a high probability youâ??ll think of him as an arrogant, pompous prick who loves passing comments on almost everyone in the class (which is not way off the mark, but still, haha). There is this other side to Pradumn people arenâ??t aware of. Immensely knowledgeable; be it politics or history or subject knowledge, a devout reader, loves Haruki Murakami and Gabriel Marcia Marquez and loves a bit of show-off too. Haha! He cares a lot about his family, well aware of his responsibilities, you interact with him and youâ??ll realize. You are one of the very very few people on this campus I can talk to for absolute hours without taking a break. From getting caught in class for laughing to poking fun at almost everyone around to discussing on god knows what random, weird topics. We have had our downs but have still come a long, long way. Needs to open up to people more though (this coming from me is quite frankly a little laughable but still). Needless to say, and I know you will but still be in touch. Bombay main toh milna hai waise! ...VIKALP KUMAR NIGAM

Prakarsh bhai :). Idk how to put our friendship into words but I hope you know that our friendship means a lot to me. You are the most selfless persons I have ever met. You have always helped out others with the kind of effort that people do not even put for themselves. You have been our saviour in all the problematic situations. I can’t forget the time spent with you. RIP, HOP, 50+ food outings, Cricket matches and what not?.. Remember that 500Rs. ka paan :D. Worth every penny spent right?.hehe. Not to forget you were my religious buddy in the campus. From Navaratre fasts to Late night Iskon temple visit :D. We had it all sir. Life without you here wouldn’t have been complete. Delhi main milte rahiyo :). We should hold on to something this precious. Apni Shaadi main pakka bula lena :P. CitiBank main phod toh tu dega hai. But still, wish you all the happiness and good luck for your future :)...Ishan Rishabh Kansal The first outing with PARIS founder and archangel Prakarsh was the movie cocktail, and boy did we have a cocktail(all figurative ofcourse)! Always the big brother to me, he was the rock on which the institution of our friendship was built. I think the song which symbolizes Parakarsh is “Main hoon na”, for he’s always there standing up for his friends no matter what-be it getting in the face of the Director or coming to a verbal war with faculty, food stalls etc. An adarsh beta, he is at the zenith of humility and selflessness. Just the other day when I refused to take a cycle to Sports complex, he decided to take the long walk! Friends like him don’t come often but when they do, one should learn to ‘Chipkao them with Fevicol’.We have had moments of magic in numerous Dinner outings, Chappan and Sarrafa visits, RIP, HOP, ISKON, Movies(both indoor and outdoor) etc. I keep pulling your leg about your ‘Not invited to Wedding list’ or your ‘Roka’ br your infatuation for SRK, but you never retort. Infact I have never seen you speaking ill about anyone. If there is a journey to the end of the world, I will be your comrade :)...APAL Prakarsh there’s a feat in my life you own.You were the first person on campus my mom suggested to be friends with! Such is your charisma. Someone once said about you ( the name whitewashed), “Prakarsh jahaan bhi hota hai captain hi hota hai!”Well despite that, what a humble person you’ve always been. There has to be something magical about you that makes people look up to you and want to have your back, always! The moments we’ve shared, the times we’ve spent in rooms, wings, corridors, villages, cricket grounds, mountains, buses, streets, are just so etched in memory they’re impossible to wipe off. From giving a Chunauti to Seniors to accepting a Chunauti from Juniors, from being in the same team to being fierce opponents, from being closest of friends to being the staunchest of SRK supporters, we’ve shared a lot of beautiful and lasting memories. PARIS will always be the most colorful dot of my IIM Indore Life! Cheers! ...SUKHAD CHATURVEDI

Petu/Prakat/Showstopper.Just your name brings in thousands of good moments in my mind.Actually spent around a year or so with you as a friend and a younger sister, but I feel like I have known you since way longer a time. You keep sharing with me how much I mean to you and keep pampering me. But just like you got a small sis, I got an elder brother (not very mature though :P ) and I respect that. I might not share it often rather its needless to say that you are my support system, a great friend and someone whom I have a right on for my full life. Not many have seen the emotional side of you. I love that you open up with me and share things, which you donâ??t with others. You never got tired of taking care of me and talking to me anytime in the day or night whenever I needed some advice. You out of all have actually meant those lines-â?? Donâ??t look at the watch before calling meâ??. I still remember our fight during internship and how much it affected us. But I think only those people fight who care for each other. It was weird not talking to you. Itni nok jhok to chalti rehti hai. Waking each other up for classes, going for breky, Our one day out to city for shopping, watching youtube videos in your room (cleanest room amongst guys in our group ), the way newspapers are kept in your room, your black bag, mujhe zabardasti doctor ke paas lejana, and getting angry when I donâ??t eat ( that is everyday ) I am going to miss all this big time after college.There are times when I act stupid and I am sorry for those times. I know I might not have been able to reciprocate how much you do for me, but be rest assured that your betu will never stop trying to make you ok. Sabse zyada breky pe miss karungi yaar! But its not the end and Im not scared..I shall hopefully start eating a bit more and will remember you a lot P.S.- That orange green slinky in your room is mine before we leave campus! ...PALAK MAHANOT Whenever someone is asked to describe him in one word, the most common would be: Calmness. But let me tell you, he is one of the most badmash bachchas you can meet. One never knows what goes inside his still water surface. My partner in crime, masti and tp giri! He has tolerated all my phases: â?? I have loads of assignmentsâ?? phase, the â??I need me timeâ?? phase, â??I want to do pagalpantiâ?? phase, â??Mujhe late ho raha haiâ?? phase and finally the talli phase! He has taught me all the wrong things: words that I knew never existed, staying up late at night (You were the reason I broke my 10pm rule!), and ahem, other things that cannot be discussed on a public forum. But there was once factor that remained constant throughout, trust. He is protective and possessive, but at the same time lets you fall and learn. He is this big, rugged, strong guy (and girls, I mean it in every sense) and at the same time defends the importance of laver le visage. A silly, stupid, idiotic guy with absolutely no chances of improvement. I guess I am the very few people in this campus who has seen all three: his pensiveness, his anger and his frustration. I have seen his every facet. And the most beautiful thing about this lad is that you can accept him, the way he is, in totality and be damn proud he is your friend. The long discussions, the late night fights, the non-conclusive philosophy talks, and the aimless walks: memories that I will always cherish. But dude, egg and milk drink is the worst thing I have ever had! ...NATASHA ARUN KUMAR

If it were not you, my life in the campus would have been an utter bore. We know only we can understand each other’s pathetic jokes. Having spent the maximum time with you on the campus, I have found you as a person who is immune to external disturbances. They are there, but your controlling power has been immense. I was extremely lucky to have caught hold of you as early as our 1st trip to Indore in the train. The best period I spent with you was in Mumbai and what I can remember is our trips to Simply Delicious. I might have been harsh on you many times, but you know that is how I am. It was just cuz I treat you as my younger brother. I pray to God of your well being. Hope you get the happiness in your life back, like it was before the last week of September 2012 :)...VAIBHAV JAIN Porwal, the smile of our group. We share the same name, what can be more connecting than this. No matter, what the situation may be, happy, sad or tense but this guy never loses his smile. That is actually a damn good quality. We met on the train to college along with Vaibhav and thatâ??s where the foundation of our trio had been established. The first day when I met him, I found him to be a really sincere and very to-the-point person but gradually (within a week :D) I got to know him completely that how friendly he is. Names ka to database hai, kisi ke baare me bhi pooch lo. I really admire your discipline and the time management you do (wo alag baat hai ki we always pull your leg for it :P) thatâ??s why when it is do or die situation I trust you the most in keeping the time. Never refuses anything, approach him anytime and he will be ready, may it be assignment or going to mess or cricket or anything. I still remember when we were there in hospital at night and watching movie together. Although we missed on RIP and then also on HOP, but I think we have had enough fun to compensate all that. Never lose your smile dude, no matter what comes in your way, you are doing well and you will get your piece of success one day.... PRAKHAR KATIYAR No matter which place or what time of the day it is, the one guy you would always find laughing would be Prakhar. Your discipline and work ethic is remarkable. We have spent some great times together, the memories of which are always filled with smiles. Thank you for the innumerable Faleros and also the uncountable laughter fits, the reasons for which were difficult to understand, but nevertheless were worth being an audience to. I admire you for such a positive attitude towards life and everything around it. I am sure it will take you places. Keep the smile, or rather the laughter, forever! :)...RAJNI RANJAN Most cheerful person I ever met! Want to learn so much from youâ?¦ how to stay so contented and calm in spite of all the troubles, how to keep things so light around you and enjoy life, how to keep people around you smiling, how to burst into laughter at the silliest jokes. One thing I would always remember is me being the only person who would laugh with you while others stare at us wondering what made us laugh so hard! :D You truly are one in a millionâ?¦stay that way and this nature of yours will surely take you to places you deserve :)...SONICA GUPTA

Definitely my favourite friend on campus. We have been beside each other through thick and thin. My partner in several b-school competitions, and the only person to share the chicken during dinner in mess. Pramit is the guy who is always under the illusion of pressure. Be it acads, cricket or interview shortlist, Pramit is hoping for the worst and preparing for the worst. Maybe this makes him put extra effort, he comes out a winner. He is a travel fanatic and simply loves to roam around the world. You got on my nerves so many time when you came knocking on my door at odd hours with a poker face and said a non-relevant thing. We have a long long way to go together as we are joining the same organisation and will be seeing a lot of each other. Wish you all the best in handling your future ‘chaaps’....Rajarshi Biswas Pramit “Pawpaw” Pal (The nick name has nothing to do with aggression, simply his initials in bengali). I know him since our GD/PI training sessions in TIME. We became good friends back then and finally ended up in the same institute and almost next room neighbors :P. A nice and approachable person who has a natural talent for drawing and design. He designed t-shirts for himself which elicited awe to everyone. A good cricketer and an awesome Bridge player. Me and Rajarshi always made fun of him because of his eternal tendency to feel stressed. A nice guy and an awesome company to spend time with. The “anytime corridor adda”s of me, him and rajarshi is something i’ll always cherish. Wish you all the best for your future....SENAJIT CHAKI As the pics on this page reveal, he is a travel fanatic. However, the pics don’t reveal how much he loves smiling :) I remember one time both of us almost fell off our chairs while reading an ‘article’ written by on of our friends. He has been my teammate in a lot of competitions and I adored the way we complemented each other. He is sumone u wanna have around when u need honest feedback about your work. He is super strong in many aspects, but more importantly, he knows the areas he is strong in, I can also say that there are very few people who can beat him in those areas. I really hope that our paths cross again. I might need ur advice now and then, so, will make every effort to keep in touch :)... SUMIT KUMAR PRAMANIK “Pramitda.....ami tomar room e aschi” was the most frequent line that I used to utter in first year :P And as rightly pointed out by you, I went there to study only to fall asleep. But the best part about you was that you never declined. Be it the last moment before exams or any other time, you would always provide me tips. My most memorable (and not so memorable for you :P) moment came a few days back when you dropped two sets at Chandni Bar, that too with Daadu as partner. You may praise me for my efforts during placement, but you were one of the major inspirations behind it. Had it not been for you, Senajitda and Daadu, I would have still been lagging behind. You are one of the few guys on campus with whom I would definitely like to stay in touch :)...MAINAK BHOWMIK

One of the most genuine people that you can expect to find in this world. Fitness freak( although at the outset he might not look like one), huge huge Arsenal fan( if you are still an arsenal fan after the 9 trophyless years, you are surely an arsenal fan for life), and yeah amazingly intelligent as well. But, the reason why this guy is going to be immensely successful is his work ethic. If you combine his intelligence and work ethic, this is the best possible recipe for success. A great future lies in front of you. Have fun, live life in your terms.. Cheers !!!...ARINDAM PAUL IIM Indore has everything in abundance, so you can expect to find quite a few extremely talented people like Todi, but you would be hard pressed to find someone who is more efficient and humble than Pranay. I was really awestruck at how well he used to manage time. I was lucky enough to be in the same block as this stud in the 1st year. Come second year, it was Deal time, and though he wasnt there throughout the competition, we had great fun. Highlight of the year would still remain the 5-1 thrashing we gave him after all the trash talk the previous week :D Will continue this banter in DB office :) ...Deepak Talluri It’s difficult to find a person who is as talented, interesting and sophisticated and at the same time as helpful and modest as Pranay. One of the best things about him is that mediocrity is not in his dictionary. Whatever he does, he does it well; be it studying, watching documentaries (most of which would be fast forwarded for the sake of efficiency), or even gymming. In fact, even his advices are well researched! Thank you for so many things that I learned from you. It was an absolute pleasure knowing you. Stay blessed and stay the same, always! ...RAJNI RANJAN Todi!!! I got to know him really well during our exchange program at Frankfurt and boy, it wouldn’t have been fun without him. The guy is hard-working, diligent and fun-loving at the same time. Although I don’t agree to his ways of living, mostly food habits (remember saw dust biscuits :P). Good at table tennis and not-so-good in FIFA :P. We share the same passion for football (although for rival clubs :P) and its fun to watch and talk football topics with him. ...HITESH H CHANDNANI Todi has always been an inspiration to everyone. Met you as a member of the first group in PGP-1. Hardworking, dedicated and very good time management skills. One of the very few good friends I made at IIM-I. The ways in which you handle things speak about the level of maturity you have. Though may appear sophisticated, you are very clear in your thoughts and thatâ??s what makes you the person you are. Had amazing times in Europe. Though a fitness freak, it never showed on you :P Very good Table tennis player and hardcore Arsenal fan. I would not be wrong in saying that someday Todi will be leading an investment banking firm somewhere in the world. Wish you all the luck and success. You are ahead of your age in what you have achieved. Hope to stay in touch. Cheers. ...RAHUL YADAV

The first thing that comes to mind about Prasad is that he is a man of principles, one of those rare people you get to meet at an IIM. He is sharp, intelligent and loves curd (yet to figure out whether thats the reason for his high IQ). Also he can eat literally anything with curd. I remember those days in the mess when he used to mix potato chips with curd for lunch. For me, he had been a great friend and will remain so for the years to come. Keep in touch and wish you all the best for your future endeavors, buddy. ...AFZAL C.M The most important thing I have to say about you man? I know you’ll have my back. I place an incredible premium on friendship and it was fantastic to meet another guy who thought the same! You’re almost anti-social :P And man you really know how to get under others’ skin quickly. You and you’re logic, bugger I have felt like kicking you so many times :P But you’re also one of the most honest guys I have met, esp. in context with the huge number of acquaintances and friends we all (most of us :P) rack up in campus :) Stay the same (except for the social part :P), obviously we’ll stay in touch!...Avinash Chidambar So it all started with our common PGP term 1 group :) I clearly remember that first group meeting we had regarding Operations Management assignment in H block. You seemed to a bit reserved that time. One day I remember I was telling you about my cricket likings and all of a sudden you showed me your pic in CSK T-shirt in your phone. I was like wow. MSD fan :) Hardcore CSK fan :) Hardcore tennis fan :) Fan of my “:P” smiley too :P You, me and Tushar had pretty good time in 1st term. We were involved in various debates and random chitchats. You are one of the person in my life whom I trusted like anything. I discussed a wide spectrum of things ranging from love lives to insect killing tactics :) ( I know you are afraid of them :D, Dude why did you let that monster lizard shelter in your H block room for so long :P ) And well we both hated GDs :D Hell of a stalker you are (so I am :D). Your logics clearly are of highest standards when you inspect any situation ( Keep it up :) ) Another incident that comes to my mind is when we went to RIP trip and we suddendly decided to buy and donate a cricket bat to the local kids. You are a kind of person who knows what to extract and how much to extract from circumstances. Seriously this testimonial message wont be able to sum it up all but still I tried to hit some of the top notches :) All the best buddy. Great life is waiting ahead :) Always be in touch and hope our friendship will go on and on :) ...MOHAMMAD AMIR Prasad...it was the high-tea (so called best meal in IIM campus) when we met first time here (remember??). I got to know more about you while sharing same column in PGP-1 classes :). We used to go in deep discussions while doing group assignments (especially of Marketing simulation and WAC). He is a very intelligent and humble guy. Very Very enthusiastic about movies and TV series (I think he might be the person in the campus who have watched maximum TV series in last two years here...seriously he is mad about TV series :P). I had great time with you here and remember these moments in my life. You have great potential and ability to achieve everything in your life. Have a wonderful and prosperous life ahead. Keep in touch :) :)...AKSHAY MANGAL

Glad to have a friend like you, Wishing you all the very best for future :-)....PANKAJ DHINGRA You were among my first friends’ on campus. I have always liked your company and the interactions I had over the past 2 years. For the uninformed, Prasanth is among the politest, friendliest and a coolest person to hangout with. I vividly remember our first encounter at EA in Chennai. You joined late to the proceedings, but succinctly gathered the attention of the group. That was when I decided there are a lot of similarities which we share. I cherish all the great memories we shared together at my room during the combined study sessions, the time we spent together at night mess, roaming around the campus and lots of other occasions. Though people might not notice this, the quality of your jokes are sound and highly witty to tickle anybody’s funny bone. I also believe that you have a very profound ideation process that makes you standout in a gathering. One piece of advice da, structure your ideas, you will go places. I need not remind you to keep in touch with me. But I want you to do big and achieve something huge in life, which you would. Looking forward to more glorious years of friendship with you. ATB da....RAHUL S

One more UP waala ladka here. A very dedicated, focused guy I ever met. Although hai bahut hi nautankibaaj but a very responsible person. Leadership quality are stuffed inside him, these we found out in RIP time only. We were also partner in IV and I remember all the fun we had there :D. Studying for end term in your room and then just for a refresher we used to play TT for like an hour and then go back to study and then refresher with Gangnam style. You are no doubt very helpful person and the compassionate and empathetic nature of yours are very rare qualities these days. Be like this forever. Chennai me maje karo jaake :D and stay in touch....PRAKHAR KATIYAR Prateek sat behind me in NC3 - part of the elite back benchers club. It was Prateek who dragged me to Zumba classes - the shy me just doesn’t have the balls to go by himselfand I am couldn’t have been more grateful to him. Our bonding deepened gradually as we became drinking buddies and then when we on exchange. My exchange wouldn’t have been half as fun had Prateek not been there. Be it Barcelonaâ??s very famous night clubs or Amsterdamâ??s supremely infamous alleys â?? he was the one who pushed me to my limits (and often, beyond them!). Prateek was one of the people who helped me when things were not going well with me - sitting hours with me - perfecting every answer to that last bit. There are only a few people I know who can talk with people the way Prateek does â?? this guy can get things done the way he wants just by the magic of his words. Prateek is someone who would blossom in sales (why the hell did you study fin?) and credits to his employer for making the smart choice. Anna, all the best for your future!...PARTHA PRATIM PANDA Prateek Jain, who would rationalize each action of his and wonâ??t take anything lightly and would always have a story woven around his logic. However it is highly debatable that how he got his CS degree :P . You have grown a lot in these two years. You may be younger to me but I learnt a lot from you. I would always remember our tea breaks and the long discussions on different topics. I have always enjoyed the miya biwi drama of you and the none other than Mr RK, but appreciate the fact that it always remained that way and not became Indo-Pak war. Anyways Cheers and Best of luck for your life ï?? ...ANKUR JAIN Champ..hamare group ke woh gifted fresher hain jo work ex walo ko advise dene ki kabiliyat rakhte hain..shakal se sharif par andar se naughty types hain jain sahab..yeh agar Engineering and MBA nai karte to ek achhe bootlegger ban sakte the..dosto ke liye kuch bi karne ko tayyar..he loves irritating people wid his not so funny jokes :p but bichare ne pitayi bi bahut khayi hai iske liye..kaafi intelligent aur carefree hai Champ..Bro u will achieve great heights in life :)...RAHUL BALWADA

Prateek or “Kaptaan” as we fondly call him, is one person I will fondly remember from the two years I spent here. A man of few words: his no nonsense approach to life is something I have a lot of appreciation for. He led us through the RIP experience with aplomb and his handling of a big group was commendable. His humility in his conduct has everyone’s respect. Kudos! I wish you the best in life!...SYED ERAJ HASSAN cant forget prateek lying on the i block corridor daaru peene ke baad. i also heard ki he yeh f block ke saamne garden main bhi pad gaya tha. good person by heart but use slang words like normal. kuch bhi ho jaaye never miss a chance to get drunk. classic, hunter, sports, u name it and he has visited every bar in town. i hope u achieve gr8 heights in future but still i cant expect u to use better words :P...ABHIJEET SINGH Kaptaan ab aisa kya hi likh dein jo tumhe nahi pata hoga. Your room was always my second room in the campus. Hazaron batein, FB posts dekhna, movie/tech reviews, shaam ka chai samosa, and your database testing for all the good things in the campus, It may be possible ki mujhse jyada bore kisi ne nahi kiya hoga tujhe. But then wahi to maza tha. You have the perfect balance between when to stay cool and when to act. Keep enjoying your life as you are doing till now. And haan chat karne ka patience thoda badha lena. Welllllll that is enough.. :) ...Parag Jain BOSS!! saale teri wajah se bollywood main ghatiya picture banti hain...Jokes apart you are one of the most genuine gentleman type persons in our group....Agar tu na hota to jugaau na hota...I had some of the most wonderful and cheerful times hanging around with you. Thank You for being a wonderful friend!!! aur aaj saare zamane ke saamne hum tumhe Dehradun ka authentic naagrik ghoshit karte hain :P I wish you be a very successful man one day more than you dreams even STAY BLESSED!!! ...NAVDEEP SINGH CHAUHAN Prateek! You have an absolutely no-nonsense and a rigid approach towards life. It is a delight to see somebody be so determined along with a chilled out attitude all at the same time. I always had fun interacting with you. May u continue to be the same always! Wish you all the best in your career and in your life. P.S: I’m still yet to find out why people call u kaptaan! :P...KEERTHI KOCHERLAKOTA The senior among Raj Brothers!! BC tera room na hota to mein mera 40% time kahan spend karta?? chai at SBI ATM, coffee behind FPM block and all time gali from both ends :P Jis din big 4 me consultant bane TAJ me treat lunga kasam se!! aur tu banega...keep faith in yourself....thoda hygiene me believe rakh taki room freshener na marna pade!!.. aur ha SRK 6kka hai :D chal best luck for your small refrigerator vala dream and dream job :)...Vishal Shah

I first met Prince in Gate 2 over Kingfisher beers and thought this is a very quiet person. But as i got to know him, he proved to be the Hulk that he is. Very lethal combo of short temper and strength but the sweetest person at the same time. Bakchodi with you, Sharma and Paaji over ciggys during lazy afternoons was something I will remember fondly. The best room for parties was your room more so during the second year. Times spent with you in RD will make me smile long after we leave from campus. Teaching bangla to you was great fun. Stay like this always and keep in touch....ARINDAM MAJUMDAR He is definitely an open book and no matter how hard you try you wonâ??t be able to single out yourself to have known something about him which others donâ??t. Though people could only relate with his Haryane ka banda with jatt wali body image (he can bend latches with his hands) but I have seen his emotional side as well. His short temper and hulk like strength can make him lethal at times but at the same time he is the sweetest person I know on campus. Have been very lucky to have him as a friend. He has always supported me in my tough times and we have had extreme masti during good times. He displays an amazingly casual attitude towards life. But when at work, he can straighten out his priorities pretty well. I have seen it during placements (so happy for you bro). I take him for a very determined person and Iâ??m very sure that he has a lot to accomplish in life. His persona is also imbibed with that of an over-achieving lady killer and be it Faridabad, Delhi, Gurgaon or Indore, girls just never stop falling for him. With this overly considerate side for the fairer sex and a life-long training in that pursuit, he has perfected the art of tease and pamper, and thus can be surprisingly helpful in issues where others fail. His mischief-for-the-moment instinct has created some very endearing and memorable moments for our group and I for one, can never forget how creative, spontaneous and melodious our partnership has been. All the red dragon parties, bhand DJ nites, C-block after parties, teasing Paaji are some of the moments that Iâ??ll always treasure. Heâ??s been a very dear brother to me and I hope they (intentional) have a happy and fulfilling life ahead. Mumbai - Kolkata ki tckt book kara diyo har mahine mere liye !!!...NIKHIL SHARMA Bhai tu ekdum mast banda hai :D. I don’t remember exactly How we met but I guess it’s because of Sr11-12. But the time I spent with you was truly a fun time :D. From Chappal fights to Pulling each others leg all the time, It’s hard to put everything down in words but honestly I believe you are a great friend of mine. Even if we do not talk daily everytime we talk we are always smiling, laughing and I seriously love that about us. Touch main rahiyo bhai :). Life main kabhi kabhi hai itne khush rehne wale log milte hai :D. ABP main jakar Bengali babu na ban jana :P Phod diyo waha :D. ...Ishan Rishabh Kansal u r an awesome fun person.. we had RIP together and did no work and all play :D u bring life to parties.. last bench masti group.. “car and model” memorable CP ;) i wish you all the very best in your life ahead.. always stay your cheerful self :) ...SAKSHI YADAV

You are confident, open, very lively, fun to be with and a lovely friend. We have bonded on our common traits--we the gujju girls, we love garba and we love to get clicked. You were my official trekking partner on HOP and we had a great time finding locations to pose for pics. I wish you have a great life ahead!! And yes, we have to click pics on campus :) ...VRITIKA RAWAL Priya ~ one of the closest friends at Planet-I.... Due to the gujju bond, we hit it off really well from the start...Had alot of fun together right from the BAKRA days....RIP became memorable because of you guys (read- you, Anshu, Sushmitha, Vishal)...All those DJ nites, Sayaji parties and not to forget late-night maggie parties n movies would be missed....Also, your usage of the word ‘Chor’ to everyone around would be remembered (though, I never understood what u meant to say :P )Jokes apart, Priya you are a very understanding and mature girl....Also, very practical in thinking and no doubt multi - talented.. I wish you all the luck, success and happiness in life... We have been great friends for the past 2 years and hope will continue to do so in future... Definitely, you will be missed....so better stay in touch :) Cheers!!!!...KARAN RATHOD gujjuuu.... ab kya likhun... these two years with you guys were great... had awesome times with you guys... all the bakar sessions criticizing each and every thing that is seemingly wrong with our college.. discussing vague future plans... or just criticizing Anshu.. it was all fun... i will surely miss you buddy.. and will miss all the fun times we had... you better keep in touch mate.. P.S. I am desperately waiting for the guns and rifles filled (along with lots of garba dances) wedding of yours... kindly inform in advance if we are required to bring out any guns of our own.. :P...BYRISETTY SUSHMITHA My best friend and lovely girl...spent so much time together that I know you fully well,,,a sweet charming and bubbly individual.....who feels cold even on a summer night... i don’t know how....poor with Hindi words...only English and Gujarati.....finds my room the most unhygienic place on the campus....has a fetish for shoes, clothes, accessories and yes getting pictures clicked after wearing them..people like them are the drivers of e-commerce in india...knowledge about every biological process in the world.. i don’t know how.....always pushed me to do the things on time...though i never listened....i am not sarvagyaani as you say....just know a few things....our endless debates on numerous topics with no one accepting defeats....priya will eat in mc donalds everyday if gets a chance barring mumma ke haath ka khaana....which she missed a lot....... we have spent lovely two years on campus together and with friends...you are an amazing person full of energy and ready to do newer things.....my sweet cutie pie ....reach greater heights in life....all the best.........ANSHU KUMAR

Making friendship with you wasn’t easy coz of your introvert nature :P but today we are like best friends :) Will miss a lot of things about you..small things that we had in common...like thinking random things and smiling to ourselves while travelling in bus, :P, RIP, HOP, swimming classes etc. I have a lot of good memories with you. Remember one thing..however far we are from each other..if you ever need any help ..please please do reach out to me..i will always be there for you.

Time used to fly n then v complained how v never do anything productive :D Im still mad at u for missing many college activities coz u r in love with ur room but how can I remain mad at u for any length of time...Have a very happy happy life and I will personally come and kill u if u dont stay in touch :D ...LAKSHMI R

You have been one of the best buddies I’ve had in the campus... we had some crazy days and nights with your insane planning... but i’ve always enjoyed your company in every bit of it. I’ve always considered you as a brother honoring the bro code :P.... Jokes apart.. I would take back all the things that we’ve did and the chats we’ve had as a beautiful memory.... :).... Ill kick your ass if you don’t keep in touch.....GALI STEPHEN STANLEY Full-on romantic with a large list of girls he proposed to. “Having Ice-cream in the rains is romantic” type :P Likes to have fun, go partying with a group that has at least one female and play computer games! Fitness freak; does everything from visiting the gym regularly to subscribing to Men’s health! Good coach too for gym training and badminton with the patience to let you figure it out.

I had fun hanging out with you during our 4th term which I can easily say is a wonderful time. Always tries to be among friends and you can see that from the number of friends circles he is in the campus :). Hope you have a great future ahead :D...JAGADEESH PUTTA

You didn’t expect this from me, did you? Well, if one thing made me a fan of yours, it would be our trip to the Himalayas. Although I knew you before, but I noticed your leadership skills during the trip. Though I myself was managing a team of 18 guys, I really admired the way you led, motivated, cheered, helped the rest of us on the trip. Played cricket with you, small number of our drink sessions, some gyaanvardhak baatein.. all in all, you are a fantastic guy to be with. And to just add icing on the cake, according to me, you are the best in overall terms among all 450 of us. Wish you loads of success in life. Keep in touch!!...VAIBHAV JAIN Well one of the only few engineers I actually admire :P No Kidding! You are like the statistician/mathematician of IIM Indore. Kinda lazy, But I think that’s more of a choice you have made :P I don’t think we talked much in the 1st and 2nd trimester. I think for us the turning point was the 3rd trimester academic group. The endless arguments we had always resulted in something fruitful didnt it? :P Hell, together we aced a marketing subject that’s an achievement on its own :P. Par Bhai Sacchi, I am glad we started talking. I know I dont open up emotionally a lot but I really think of you as a great friend :). Talking about Mach3, Rising bouncers, Heated arguments on the ground and then forgetting it all, Boxing and Punching each other, Making fun of each other literally all the time. I would be lying if I say I didn’t enjoy your company. Mumbai toh chal hi rahe hai saath main :D Hopefully flat bhi le lenge :P. Touch main toh reh lenge. I think that goes without saying considering both of us are going to end up in Delhi only :P. Wish you good luck for your future bhai :). ...Ishan Rishabh Kansal Bhai dosti ho to aisi. Destiny it was, wasnâ??t it, when we casually made our RIP group the time we barely knew each other. RIP then HOP, Jaam darwaja trip, Delhi meet, we enjoyed everywhere. Doing almost everything together, apna Punit-Prakhar account ka size is a proof for that :D. I remember those long night talks and secret sharing sessions, difference in our views but somehow converging onto something in middle. I always admire you for your sharp brain and the speed in which you contemplate things. Eveready to masti and execute responsibilities in the best way possible, although not responsible enough to manage own room :D. We both know each other in and out which happens rarely at this age. You have always been there whenever I needed you and I am sure that physical distances may increase between us but you always will be there for me at any time and definitely it goes for me too. Lawn Tennis, Table Tennis, Cricket, Gym, Monopoly, Pictionary, sports bhi khele to saath hi khele. Coming to my room and sleeping and then saying â??yaar tere bed pe neend achhi aati haiâ?? will always make us laugh when we will recall these days some 10 years later. The variety and the quality of songs you listen and made me listen, of time from 60s or even before are awesome. The matter is never ending but I think I should stop here, log waise hi hmari friendship ko dekh ke hmare orientation par shak karne lage hain, but doesnâ??t matter, love you bro, will really miss these days but these days will always bring me smile and who knows, agar aage saath rahe to sabki chhutti :P...PRAKHAR KATIYAR

This is the STUD on campus....always grounded with a “uski-maa-ki” attitude to all B-school competitions that dare crop up into his life.One of the very few I consider as bade bhaiyya! :) Bhai U are “Simply bro-some” ;)....loves to make fun of idli-vada ( Although I dont eat much of that)....hapy to help anyone in need, and likes to chat up with friends.Hope life gives you much much more :) Always your bro!...VISHNU.V.A Hmm... He is a child in a man’s body. Can talk really sensibly at times and gives you the best of advice but can within an instant change gears and act very childish. An expert in creating Meme and jokes (beating yem bee yay hands down). He’s the champ of B-school competitions. Champ of strategy, ops, marketing!! Helped me win a competition on campus too. Can gulp down gallons of alcohol and then slap anybody and everybody. :P Doesn’t care about what others think about him. With him around, fun is guaranteed. Learnt a lot from you brother- both what to do and what not to do (through your two completely contrasting personalities). I am sure you will be successful wherever you go!! All the best!!!! :)...ROHIT KUMAR GUPTA Hmm.. It started with an acquaintance in RIP but he turned out to be a truly dependable friend!! A bold and aggressive strategist, marketer, operationalist by brains who has childlike, fun-filled, adventourous and bindhaast personality by heart, is what describes him. His “Mind Rovers” to “Stratedge” the “Chain Reaction” and do proper “Moolyankan” to go “Over the Wall” (Maaf karna agar kuch competition ke names miss ho gye..:P)..A marathoner in winning competitions but to get them he has literally burnt the midnite oil! He has helped me in putting few important rows of ‘winning competitions’ in my resume and much valuable prize money in my bank account! Learnt a lot from him - be it analysis, strategising and wat not. A JATT by heart! Believes in Anytime, Anywhere and Anyone ‘Thappad Banking’..::P..needs an AOL course..:P:P..but still is likeable and bankable as a person..:) Ballu, your quest will surely resonate into success.:).. thanks for everything and for being there..Hope u always remain like this..:):):) ...SHETTI SRIDEVI ASHOK It was always fun interacting with you on campus. Looking back now, I wonder why i was so scared of you back in the 2nd term. You have set the perfect example of how looks could be deceiving :P I’m really glad to have met you and I can proudly confess that you are not very scary as you otherwise seem to be ;) Wish you all the very best for your future and do stay in touch...KEERTHI KOCHERLAKOTA Bhai sab log keh rahein hai child in man’s body hum kehte hai launda bad hi nahi hua khali bakar kara lo . Most unconventional forms of pranks comes from this guy. Ab iske saath party pe jane wale jante hi hoga. Launde ne competition mein kamal kar diya hai.

Pehli mulaqat se hi dil jeet liya tha AARA sheher ke rehne wale Raja ji ne. ZARA ki jacket mein ZARA ka tag nahi hai - kabhi na bhool payenge. Baaki sab to thik hai, bas tumko dekh lene se hi ek gulaabi gadaraahat si mehsoos ho jaati hai. hamare liye isi tarah bc karte rehna. Kerala trip ke intezaar mein - Tumhara junior - Ishansh...Ishansh Niranjan Rusty is the person I will hold closest to my heart. It is not the ‘larger than life’ persona that he has with his car, clothes or shoes but the times when he stands by you when you need him. He has been patient with me through my petulance, he has been a pillar of support. The times that I have had with him while we conversed alone are the ones I will treasure. Thank you for the memories. I wish you the best in life! ...SYED ERAJ HASSAN You are a great friend and a person with a good heart.Though we never got enough time to spend on campus, but we still had our days in Greece. You were the best friend there, always there for me, helped me with everything. It was so much fun with you there. You tried everything I asked you to :P. Your generosity will always give you friends that will be there with you for life. I hope we’ll always be like this in future. All the best for everything. I know you’ll excel in life :D...KSHITIJ TAYADE Having Rahul a.k.a Rusty as a friend is an excellent example of friendship in itself. Openminded, genuine, compassionate, are some of the qualities which describes him best . He can always be counted on to listen and provide support when needed. His wonderful sense of humor, adventure, and life experiences have given him the ability to see any situation in a positive sense. Wo R.I.P wali masti, long drives, Sharukh wala dance, saath me theeke pe baithna, laundiyabazi karna are some of the memories which will always be embedded in my mind. Personally believing that â??people come into our lives for a reason, or a lifetimeâ??, Iâ??ve known for a long time that Rahul is a lifetime friend. :-)... KISHLAI KUMAR Rusty is someone you can rely on anytime. His unique and somewhat controversial collection of jackets is what describes his desire for a grand life:P. You gave a new defintion to humbleness with your accomodating attitude for all kinds of craps which we put on you. I know you will be very happy wherever you would go. As your friend Royal Stag would say” Its your life, make is large”. Keep living your dream :)...Parag Jain Tumhein Raees(at NIT Jamshedpur) se Rusty(self procalimed- vichitra aadmi ho..warna khud ko naam kaun deta hai!!) aur phir Rusty se Raja bante dekha hai...wo bhi 4 raniyon wala :P But you’ve always remained true at heart..always ready to help others. You don’t express your love for others (except for SRK) but you show through your actions that you really care. Par ye SRK ka bhoot apne sir se utaaro...warna raja hote hue bhi har jagah haath phailaate hue dikhte ho :D Being my official driver...I hope you will take me on a tour in your Jaguar some day :)...NEERAJ KUMAR

GD God, Gym Freak, Analytics Guru, Marketing Champ are some of the few titles that Rahul have won over last two years. Rahul is a perfect blend of “Sanju baaba” and “Aloknath”. Rahul is the guy you can rely upon any day anytime. A.k.a. Rau these days, Rahul has always played the role of a big brother in this small journey of two years....LOKESH CHANDRA AGRAWAL

Hmm.. Billo!! He’s the High Net Worth client of all the tea vendors on campus. Infact, i am sure while i am writing this testimonial (midnight), he’s at mess having his second last cup of tea for the day.But jitna bada inka Chai Prem hai utna bada hi inka dil hai. Always there for friends. If we leave aside his antics on the Badminton court or near a tea stall, then he’s one of the more sensible guys in our otherwise insane group. :P He always offers a different perspective to look at things. Really enjoyed playing TT and then Badminton with you. And i must thank you for bringing us all back from HOP after we lost our way while descending from the summit. :P All The Best for all your future endeavours!!...ROHIT KUMAR GUPTA RkdChamp says it all. You donâ??t get enough of this kind on earth. Your testimonial canâ??t start without mentioning the chai fascination of yours. I guess every tea vendor in the institute must have knowledge about it. You have made a custom to have threefour chai sessions in a day. Those session have etched itself in the memories of our IIMI life. Our friendship is one of the most cherished gifts that IIM indore has given me. And everytime you get into an argument with someone the one comment that turns the table around is â??aap baat ki gravity ko nahi samjhteâ??. I donâ??t like you disrespecting Sev especially infront of me :P and Poha ki burai to bilkul crime hai :P. Anyways best of luck love bro :) ...ANKUR JAIN Tumhare page par to ek banta hai. Tumhe to pehli nazar me hi pehchaan gaye the launda kamina hai. 14 lakhs waste kar diye tumne, agar koi chai ka bagan khareed liya hota, to aaaj recruit karne aate college me. Tumhari saali serve khatarnaak thi TT ki. Aaj tak pick nhi ar paaye magar kya hua badminton me humne badla le liya. Aur kuch jyada nhi hai likhne k liye bas aise hi rehna. One of the most amazing person I have ever met. Chilled and relaxed with a cup of tea. WIsh u all the best things in life....HIMANSHU NIGAM Chai peene chalna hai kya and instantly we are both ready for infinite cups of tea innumerable times a day. You definitely are one of the finest friends I have on campus. Your caring attitude as an elder brother, various interactive sessions on topics ranging from politics to philosophy (Sigmund Freud endless jokes on each other), numerous fun filled pranks, leg pulling memories shall be the most cherished. Always happy and joyful, old songs lover, movie buff I have always known you to be calm and composed even in toughest of times. Not to forget the challenges thrown on each other be it badminton or tt. Par point vo nahi hai :P Point hai ki random challenge throw krna bhi to art hai . Lucky to have a friend I feel I can count on anyday anytime. Being there for friends come what may is the biggest virtue I feel I could learn from you. Hope the flower of our friendship continues to blossom forever....PRATEEK JAIN

If I were to describe you in one word: “STUD”. You have everything that a man can aspire for. Looks that make him a magnet and girls( read PGP1. PGP2. IPM) small iron particles. Brains that make everyone else look like an idiot in front of him ( ITC, STAN C, top 30... enough said). And yes, even though we are so different in everything( I am not restricting myself to cleanliness), you are and will remain one of my best friends for life( even though I may swear as many expletives at you I know when i am drunk). In 10 years time, when you will be a big shot at Stan C, and me most probably jobless( you know me too well to understand that this is realistic), I will still use the same expletives, and you won’t mind a bit. Have fun, live life your way, and don’t give a fuck about others think or say... :)...ARINDAM PAUL With my system flushed with alcohol, now is the best time to write about you :D. One of the most level headed guys around on campus. Had met you first on the day I came on campus and was waiting in the queue to get my documents photocopied. Got to see you again in NC3 as a part of Section E. You are probably one of the few guys I converse in with English instead of Hindi. Maybe that’s how we started interacting and I guess i never wanted to change that. I guess what got us going was the outlandish views we (add Anoorag to it) had on ahem ahem :P. Will always remember the drinking binges we had in Mumbai. Gokul’s and Bade Miyaan would be etched in my memory. Pretending to be wine connoisseurs at the wine shop after all liquor stores had closed in Mumbai.would be a memorable incident. One of the very few people who knows my superpower dream vividly :P. I might not be socializing with you all the time nowadays but I have had one of the finest memories with you on campus. I would not talk about your academic prowess or ladykiller abilities as they are well documented. Hope you have a great life ahead and may more drinking binges be in store for us in the future :) :) ...SAYAN BAGCHI We share a bit of the boarding school camaraderie and the air that comes along with it!! Believes in having fun specially in â??foreign landsâ??. He is hard working, a little mysterious and has an undeniable charisma which cannot get unnoticed. And ya!! beware of him while playing table tennis; swings his arms like Nadal hitting a forehand down the line.... PRANAY TODI I am fortunate to have met Rahul in the very first week of college and have known him for two years now. He’s been my go-to-guy for anything at IIM Indore. His easy going nature is what makes him likeable (atleast to the guys :P). UCB ka brand ambassador, makes life difficult for us because guys can never match his style of dressing and look impressive in front of the fairer sex (eye candy for them :P). Behind his cool and stylish look, theres a inner nerd that has helped him maintain good acads in his life. Remember slogging for MAC-I and marketing-II (failed attempt) :P. The man knows to party hard as well and his witty dialogues keep the crowd entertained. He has been there for me during the good and bad times at IIM Indore and I would love that to continue post our MBA life. :) ...HITESH H CHANDNANI

Bhaau (fondly called), I have known him from my undergraduation days. He is one of the guys who is dynamic, ambitious , crazy and fun to hang out with. This guy will never worry about the grades and take life as it comes. All those conversations we had at college, Dhaaba, RD will definitely be missed. I am sure that you will reach great heights in your life. Wish you a great life ahead bro...cheers :) :)...ANKIT GOYAL

Benjo, You are one of the most mature persons on campus. Loved every conversation ( except one in Audi, You know which one? ..haha) with you. You are someone I looked upto. You were there during my toughest times on campus. Many a times you were that mentor I so badly needed. Remember that random Ranji trophy game we watched in Holkar Stadium? and the Davis Cup game.? Stay in touch da...So many cricket games to watch in Bangalore and Chennai..ATB man...!! ...SUMANTH J Though he is younger to me, I always feel like he is an elder brother :D One of the few ppl in campus I actually used to take advice from:) Though his luck is so bad at times that even I could take him only to 2nd place in RPG :D Jokes aside, he is a good friend, a very dedicated guy who gives his all in whatever he does, and he will turn out to be a very good consultant. We had a great time in the last 2 years and I hope he does stay in touch now that he will be in Bangalore :)...Deepak Talluri Rahul Maccha- Our CR, we have shared some extremely fun memories on the last benches of Section C. I remember all of us pulling Rahul’s leg throughout the classes and how he used to get irritated at our apparent childishness. He hardly did CP, except for Patturaja Sir’s class where all his CPs started with ‘Sir, in the company where I used to work...’ Seeing him work as a CR and as a part of Placecom, I really admire him for his hard-work, his never say die attitude and his efforts to involve everyone and take everyone together. I know you will achieve great heights :) Keep in touch. Cheers!...TANMAY LALIT TAPASE You are one of the few people on campus whom i used to bug to get some advice. The RIP wouldn’t have been so much fun had it not been for you. All your jokes and the conversations shall remain cherished. People started addressing me kotler and the name would probably go down in history, all thanks to you :P I had real good times with you around. Wish you all the very best for a bright future ahead and do keep in touch :)...KEERTHI KOCHERLAKOTA Big macha/CR/Placom - are some of the few names given to him. I don’t think sec C could have got a better CR. He was always so calm and composed even though people irritated him with random things. He played a major role in keeping our class united and earning us the title of the best section in our batch. There are so many good times that we had together - the Talent night practice, playing mafia during RIP or even our section parties. He is a good manager. He has always been very motivating and supportive. It was great knowing you. All the very best for all your future endeavours. ...BHANTI PRATIKSHA DEEPAK very straight forward yet you feel comfortable talking to him. It’s fun even though he bullies you :P...It’s good knowing you!...SAI PRASANNA KUMAR LAVU

N. Ghosh Lane, Calcutta - 700040 About Me : The person who is always smiling irrespective of the situation Most Memorable CP : Never opened my mouth PORs on campus : Durga Puja Committee :-) Ideal endorser for : 2nd hand Badminton Racquets One song you symbolize : ‘Waiting’ by Greenday One song you symbolize : ‘Majhi Re’ by Shaan Frequently uttered lines : Luck doesn’t exist, you have to earn it!! 10 years from now you will be : Happy If not MBA then : Comedian Favourite spot on campus : Behind FPM Hostel Friend groups on campus : Seen around Bong people. Wing members, Chandni Bar members, RIP group, HoP group First crush in the institute : Certain Academic Associate Lasting impressions about college : Might not be the best institute but certainly the best 2 years of my life Lasting impressions about college : Proud to call myself an IIMIan!!

Albela Biswas : the cool dude of Planet I. I guess our first interaction was through common bong friends.....we met at mess, acad block and since then we have been very good friends. It was the HOP time that I got to know the real Rajarshi....the coolest guy on planet I. We gave you name ALBELA which is very apt for you. I must say that you have very good sense of humour, the creativity which you showed for preparing our script at HOP was simply great...you made our HOP trip memorable. I would remember you as the person who can crack jokes on any issue, who never gets angry and always keeps smiling. I would always cherish the moments we spent together.... I wish you all the very best for all your future endeavours...Keep in touch !!! P.S. You tried hard to show anger on J.V. on many instances...but it was entertaining for us...ALBELA u rock !!! ...ANIKET YEVALKAR Hmm..common, common, common. Surname, City, High School, College, B-school. Yes, there are many things I have common with him, but Rajarshi always stands out as a unoque person in his own accord. The best thing with him is a smile on his face. You will see him smiling all the time even when I would wake him up from his deep slumber asking for badminton racquets. He is a person you can approach for help without any hesitation, sure to get the helping hand. And the hard-working he is. His constant inputs during our BIDM assignment testifies the fact. His comical acting skills during our HOP were highly praised by all. Just one advice, be like this throughout you life because happiness is the best success life can bestow upon you....DEBAYAN BISWAS Kolkata Airport 3rd July, 2012: “This is the last and final boarding call for Indigo flight 6E-245. Passengers - Rajarshi Biswas, Pramit Pal and Senajit Chaki are requested to reach Gate 11 immediately.” As the start promised, this 2 year ride has truly been memorable as I fumbled across its length. And, you have been part of most of these memories. Your room has always been the stop for me to spend ‘lad’ hours or tense moments. Even during exchange, I could blindly rely on you to take care of my placement related tasks. You have always joked and laughed at the slightest bit of fun. But the way you coolly handled those stressful 12 days (Jan 10-22), smiling and playing badminton, proves that the ‘Bachha’ has long grown up. Enjoy your remaining days as badminton club owner because the Kolkata Airport is ready for our journey to another common destination....PRAMIT PAL Rajarshi is a cool Bong guy. It’s only recently that I got to know him. Better late than never. He is a great person to be friends with. He is fun-loving. He’ll constantly make you laugh. He is really sincere about his work too. It was good to know you. Wishing you all the best for all your future endeavours....BHANTI PRATIKSHA DEEPAK

You are one of my first and best friends in the campus. I remember you as a great storyteller...about your experience in college and on the ship. That why many people call you â??Sailorâ?? too. You are the person with whom Iâ??ve shared a lot of secrets and vice versa. Because of you only, I am a part of RIP group. We are similar in many respects and shared a great chemistry in 1st year. But due to my short tempered nature we fought many a times but with time things got better and youâ??ve always been on my very good friends list. You encouraged me whenever I was in distress. You have a great analytical power and youâ??ve an eye with detail. You like being with friends and at the same time isolate yourself sometimes. You are very sensitive but good at heart. I always tried to guess your mood through your quotes ;) Be happy and healthy...Always be in touch and keep smiling :)...YOGESH KUMAR PATEL Rajat, we didn’t spend much time together but in lil time we got to know about each other.

Keep smiling forever..Stay in touch :) :) ...payal anand Though Rajat may seem a quiet guy at first sight, let me tell you he loves to talk. Whenever we would sit next to each other in lectures or even when we met for late night tea session, we would end up chit-chatting. We were put in the same group in MR3 where he used to come up with some brilliant ideas. He really helped me a lot during my stay in Kolkata, suggesting me places that I could visit and how I could reach those. He is a simple and calm person. It was nice knowing you. All the best for all your future endeavours. ...BHANTI PRATIKSHA DEEPAK Silver ;) a very nice and sweet guy...nice to spend time with u...i know wat ur response will b for this statement ;) and am very sry for that...but still watever time v spent together were very memorable....a very fun loving person with a good sense of humor...always a gentleman...very good in handling situations...we have shared so many stuffs...it was very nice to having met u...we will always stay in touch and hope we spend more time in future...ATB Popye :D :D keep smiling ...PREETHI S Sailor man; The god of sea; brand ambassador of Godaan :) Pajat is one of those guys who knows how to change gears and live life wonderfully :D Very good friend who can criticize you at any moment but deep inside he always care for his gud frns.

It is said first impression is the last impression. Well, Rajdeep Paul proves it wrong. The first impression I got about him is a lazy jerk, totally disconnected with the world. A few days later....SAPM quiz. And man, he rocked. Came to my room to know the syllabus and went straight to the exam. He reached 10 minuted late, yet scored the highest. And thus started his streak of acing fin electives, which culminated in clearing CFA L3. Had “Choopa Rustam” been a brand, you would have been an ideal endorser for it. You are a “Goldman” in the true sense of the word....MAINAK BHOWMIK Rajdeep! You are an extremely polite person with an exceptional brain :) Am sure you will grow to very great heights in your career and I wish you all the success for your life ahead :) Take Care!...ROHINI H An extremely soft-spoken and intelligent person...and of course, Fin Champ! Was fun interacting with you at Nitie and lunching at the Taj! Have a wonderful life ahead :)... THAKUR ANSHU MANOJ Saale, I spent three months on exchange with you and I can say without hesitation that I enjoyed every bit of it. I’ve seen you pulling the moves on the dance floor (ahem, without your glasses) and have been through the best and worst with you. You have a talent for Finance that surpasses most and despite knowing you’re an IIT-ian, it always amazes me. What didn’t surprise me at all was when you landed a top-notch job; you deserved it. We share the same fascination for exploring delicacies the world over (Octopus or horseburgers, it never stops us!) I hope to see you again while we’re working. Cheers man :)... ANOORAG BISWAS Rajdeep keeps a very low profile but a real talent. Very few ppl know that Paul came to IIM Indore to recruit people for his employer in the past, prolly got fascinated with the weather and decided to do his MBA here. I have spent time with him during our internship in mumbai, A real sport when it comes to partying out. Thanks for those wine and marshmallows from Paris. All the best in life.

Here I am writing this testimonial that makes me realise that a wonderful journey here at IIM indore with you guys is coming to an end. I fondly would remember each every moment of it. My this journey would not have been complete without you guys. You were there as a friend during happy and sad moments. Now when this journey of ours called MBA is coming to an end I am becoming more nostalgic now. We were here like a family and had been together and stood by each other at all hard times and laughed together at good times. Ab zyada senti mat ho :P Zyada door nahi jaane wale bhai log :D Well, a great cook, a mast company to hang out with, official saaki of the group and above all a great human being. I clearly remember the day when we first met at JP’s room. From that day on our bonding has grown stronger. I hope when you hold this booklet in your hands few years from now you would be smiling at all those memories that we had together and you would remember this friend of yours with some good memories. wishing you good luck for your future and needless to say that stay in touch :)...TEJINDER KUMAR NEGI Babu, I will miss the intellectual discussions that we have :) and the refreshing viewpoints you espouse when we fight on issues. But most of all, its your cooking that I will miss the most, that and your unique sense of humor... Wish you all the best. ...ABHISHEK CHAUHAN Babuuuuu...our group mummy....thank u babu for cooking delicious food for bhukad like us...I feel shamed ki being a girl all I can do is cut vegetables.....I gained 6 Kgs because of dat food...U r d most adjusting and adaptable person I hv met so far...At times i feel u speak better hindi than me :P....I wish negi ki tarah tu mujhe bhi car driving me conductor support deta...u can stop trucks, planes, volcano just by showing ur hand hahah.....humare group ke Saaki (m beer saaki) u’ll be always remembered cause daaru se hui dosti kabhi nhi break hoti :P.....I’ll give u my account details and keep on sending friendship bonus till d end of ur life n den ask ur children n grand children to continue the trend :P...good luck for the future ahead...make sure ki humara group 2015 Goa sunburn zaroor attend karein :)...VAISHALI SHARMA Babu is a unique creature. He may look an indifferent person but he actually cares for his friend/family like anything. He has love for everyone. Because of which he can patiently listen to you and gives advice suggestions. He possesses knowledge from diverse fields. Doing discussion/debate with him was always enlightened me. He always has curiosity to know new things. His accommodating nature help him to mingle with people from any part of world (yeah, any part of world :P) â?¦.At time he losses temper, but he quickly bring himself to normal state. He is a brilliant cook (his wife will be a very lucky to have him). The kind of analytical skills he has, I am sure he will do wonderful as a consultant. I wish him all the best for future. Be in touch babu â?¦...HITESH KUMAR CHAND

You know that I am way too lazy for stuff like this, but I owe you this. To my only female friend on campus( I am not sure if that is a compliment ;)), you are one of the most amazing girls( Not that I am a stud and have met thousands ;)) that I have ever met.Coco Chanel once said that a girl should be classy and fabulous, and believe me when I say this, you sure are both classy and fabulous. And apart from solving one of mathematics’ millennium problems( Quiz club ppl will get this joke), you are also amazingly well read. And as far as your intelligence is concerned, you are one of the best. Starting from being an NTSE scholar to being an I-Banker, you have it all. And this is inspite of you watching every possible TV show on earth and tons of movies. And yeah, most people have no idea how popular you are ( I won’t name ‘All the Rajni fans’ here :P, ). And even though I wanted to, I won;t mention your other side ;) (what happens in quiz club stays in quiz club). I won;t ask you to stay in touch, coz I will make sure we do. Stay the way you are and you will def have an amazing life ahead. Cheers !!! ...ARINDAM PAUL Rajni is a little too intelligent and a little too kind friend who says â??sorryâ?? and â??thank youâ?? so many times that would put Queen Elizabeth to shame....PRANAY TODI You are one person I can open my heart to and can talk about all the random things and people while being sure that I am not being judged. You are a great listener. A very kind hearted, humble and modest person. Of course, a great quizzer. Most importantly, very accommodative (who else can eat Thai curry at Alcoves for the sake of others). You are one of the very few people with whom apart from enjoying and having fun, I can talk about whatever I am feeling, however idiotic that may be. You were always there to listen to me and being so supportive. I had such great time with you here, and looking forward for this to continue in Mumbai as well. Have faith in yourself, you have what it takes to get to your dreams, the journey to which has already taken a kick start... Wishing you all the best for future :)...SONICA GUPTA Rajni, Believe me this the most difficult testimonial I have written. I know so much about you but still it feels like I know nothing (Such an Enigma You are). You are also very different from the girls I had met before (Quizzing, Maths, Pencil Sketching..Super combo). I liked the way you got super excited and laughed at some of my silly jokes (few times). I also liked the way you got super angry and gave those scorching stares (majority of times). I am sorry that I got too competitive (asking quiz questions over parties, What was I thinking?), that destroyed the fun at times. Talking about talent, Can you please tell me if you are not good at something? (Da Vinci Reincarnated types). One more thing I learnt from you is to always look for positives in people. It was fun having you as a friend. Wish you a successful career!! I will stay in touch with you!! ...SUMANTH J

Khara!!. Yeah thats what we called this genius back in NITR days. A batchmate at NITR and “SENIOR” at IIM-I :P . There would be hardly any die hard Man-U fan on the campus than this person. He is one person who talks to the point without the Globish things. Was very much instrumental in helping to keep belief in myself when I was down during Summer Placements. Hoping to continue this friendship all through out the life. All the best for your future journey and keep in touch with this “JUNIOR” of yours ;) :D :P ...RAKESH RANJAN PANI And on the final day of RIP, the ‘Deputy’ takes charge with an inspirational speech that bonds the entire team. I have been with you in assignment groups, RIP, placement processes, etc. and always wondered “How can this guy never get tensed!” Of course, you would hear him say that he is after knowledge, not grades. You have always been a jolly confident character with too many Man U updates on fbk :) .. I am glad we are joining the same organization and look to spend some quality time ahead....PRAMIT PAL Rashmi is technically my grand-dad from NIT. I first met him right on my first day in campus. We struck a rapport instantly given our common alma-mater. This bonding has continued till date and has only grown in strength. An avid gamer, a die-hard ManU fan and a devout TV series follower â?? that is Rashmi in a nutshell. There are a few people who came here knowing what they wanted and Rashmi is one of them â?? he told me on the first day that he wanted to get into IT consulting and boy, he achieved that and in style. He is someone whom I looked up to whenever I wanted any advice and he never disappointed me. With that, I close this piece with lots of wishes for a great life ahead!... PARTHA PRATIM PANDA My neighbour in first year and my friend for life :) We have spent some memorable times together over the dinner table/study table and off the table as well ;) A perfect gentleman, a true friend, my wakeup alarm in exams times and the person with whom I liked discussing the important and not so important things as well. :) One thing which I admire you for is the way you keep yourself organised, waking up and sleeping on time, always completing the assignments/projects before time, looking after yourself (going to gym/ running etc.). You are a great human being, it was a pleasure being with you. I wish you a great professional and personal life ahead! Be in touch! :)...PRAKARSH AREN

One of the most friendly and cheerful persons I had the fortune of spending my time with. Always helpful, it was great to have you as a wing mate. The chats we had standing in the corridor, making fun of each and everything under the sun, were always the best part of the day. I guess it was you who came out with the unique way of shouting Ali’s name and his Sacc title :D. Would definitely remember you wearing 3 pants and hiding under your bed to avoid birthday bumps :p. Jokes apart, your ability to bond with people is remarkable. I wish you the very best in your life :) ...KARANDEV SINGH KAMRA Well, my all time partner for pulling Vaishali’s leg ;) ... you have been one great companion for me- a complete entertainer during classes, a sincere student during exams, a fun-loving friend... I missed all the great times we people used to have in classes during first year in my complete second year except for AMR classes which were a real fun because of u and vaishali... btw kabhi nazar mat lagana mujhe future mein... teri baat zyada hi lagti hai... :P Will miss u... All the best for future! Keep in touch... ...VIBHUTI AGARWAL Karan is a fashionista :P Mr. Section B presents him to class in dresses (especially footwear) unimaginable ...It’s good knowing you!...SAI PRASANNA KUMAR LAVU my bakra group mate and first gujju i met at planet-i nd since then i knew our bond is going to be more than just group mates in bakra group. rathod sahab (hope you remember, during rural immersion) is always fun to be with. So many nakhras he has while eating in mess. wastes half of his food...... but to surprise if the food is good then you will be stunned by looking at his appetite....loves to wear different styles of clothes.....studious intelligent and xtremely hardworking guy.... my DJ dancing partner......its always we both left on dancing floor..... it was always fun how we supported each other to argue against other people nurturing our gujju bond :-P nice at heart and xtremely helpfull..... very strong nd opinionated in his thinking.....we have spend two beustifull years together and wish to be in contact in fututre..... may god bless you with all hapiness in ur life....:-)...PRIYA PARMAR Karan bole to Rathod?..the youngest one of the group and probably the loudest fellow on our floor :) I admire your dedication towards studies and you love for dancing.. DJ nights are not complete without Rathod showing his dandia moves. Ye ladka hamesha khush rehne ka..bole to mastt personality. We’ve been friends right from the first days at IIM Indore and I’ll cherish our daily dinner talks, walks and constant efforts of pulling Dhingra’s leg. We’ve shared laughs and the hostel life wouldn’t have been this fun without you.. I wish you the best for your future and sincerely hope you get rid of your RED pants :D ..Stay in Touch!!...Chitresh Singh

I know) Ideal endorser for : How to pass time One song you symbolize : Apni to jaise taise thodi aise ya waise One song you symbolize : main to aiwayi aiwayi aiwayi lut gaya (ye bas jinki bakar hai unhe samajh aayega) Frequently uttered lines : Leo (pronounced as Laiiiyo) 10 years from now you will be : Still confused If not MBA then : Ab to ho gaya ab to jane do ye ques Favourite spot on campus : 1.5 km away from gate no 2 Friend groups on campus : Boozers; Group I; Family... who isn’t First crush in the institute : Ye to andar ki baat hai Lasting impressions about college : RIP (literally and figuratively); a certain group on watsapp Lasting impressions about college : Corp Gov ..PGPO _/\_ ...good infra bad management ...

Ravi Bhaiyya....aap ke liye mere man me atyant samman hai! Ravi Bhaiyya is this immense repository of knowledge and logic....there was so much to learn from your CPs in first year. Bahar se bilkul mast aur chill but he is also the most sincere student in the college.... hardly has missed any class, comes prepared with every case. Thodi irony ho gayi ki inhone bas Fin hi Fin courses liye in the 2nd year aur placement Marketing mein lag gayi.... But everyone knows and even you know that aap jahan bhi jayoge, machaoge :D Pichle kuch dino main aapke kai aur talents dekhne ko mile - Cricket, T.T.....Bas aise hi rahena hamesha...Best of luck in life aur haan, shaadi mein bulana :)...RUDRASHIS ROY Bhaisaab!! I still remember the first bakra meeting (where we morons were trying to figure out how BSE works) and Ravi bhaisaab entered the room with his list of arguments :D. The arguments which make people (including me) think twice before they say/do something. A lot of people around brag about how they don’t care about the world. But someone who actually portrays it is You. Because you always put forth your ideas/views with logic. And I sincerely admire that. I wish we had spent some more time together in the second year. I hope will be in touch. All the best and have fun! Cheers (with the Fruity dog) !!...RAHUL NAGDEV Ravi- he is the wittiest and the most street smart guy on campus..He always has an ans and a rebuttle to everything.Mostly his line starts with BEEP.. Ideal endorser for Bakchodi, you would never feel bored in his company. He has been by neighbor in 1st yr. and have spent some time playing Bollywood during classes! He is credited with the maximum CP in college and has always pestered my sleep during classes!(And I always used to make random CPs using little strategy :P) Profs. are literally scared of him, he wouldnt even give a second thought before speaking and literally “saamne wale ki utaar deta hai”! That makes him famous across Profs (Prof. Gunta would even ignore while he speaks! :P) and the students. However, his thoughts are well defined and rational..He can question you to death (even if you stand correct!).So strictly BEWARE!! But at the same time, he is a bindaas, jolly guy and very easy to be with. Hats off to all your CPs..You really have kept us all entertained across these 2 years and have made moments memorable.Wish you all the best..Keep in touch! :) ...PARAG PODDAR Ravi Bhaiya.. Section-D se le kar BF class tak - it was an absolute pleasure to have you inevery class. We share a birthday and we share some traits. It’s great that you are never afraid to speak your mind no matter who’s is at the opposite end. You are also someone who is very sharp and pays great attention to detail (this I noticed when we did an accounts assignment together). Stay the same Sir!! And all the best for all the big changes to come soon :p...SHAH SOHAM SAMIR ANJANI

Looks fragile and lost but packs a punch. When I knew that we would be in the same HOP group, I was almost certain that you won’t be able to trek. And never have I been more wrong. Was glad I kept my apprehensions to myself :D. I was always afraid I might offend you one way or the other but over time, I realized you were very easy to talk to and really friendly. Its been a pleasure knowing you. Wish you the best in life :)...KARANDEV SINGH KAMRA You have a beautiful face, and even more beautiful personality.

But equally difficult is getting angry on you. God! you can make me wait for hours and I still wouldn’t feel like getting angry at you :D You are truly one of a kind! No one else can be so smart, so logical ;) yet so confused and so lost :P But seriously, thank you so much for partly convincing me to come her :p and for making this totally worth it :D I shall always boast that I was the only person here who could patao one of the prettiest girls on campus :D :D...SONIKA KHURANA Vritika! I guess our connecting point was our confusion and doubts on almost all subjects..

Your conviction about finance often helped me remove my doubts about which field to chose :) Thankyou for making many subjects bearable and thankyou for being a lovely friend :)...JYOTHI GARG

Human beings are by nature critical and judgmental, and we love finding flaws in others. It says something when I propose that I have met a flawless individual in Richa. So much drive, energy and passion for things you believe in, is inhuman (positive wala inhuman). Determined as hell, she lives by the philosophy of ‘No work is small’ and she’s herself done everything as part of Mridang (be it cleaning the Auditorium, distributing Cold drinks or pulling tables and chairs). On a personal note, she’s there when you need her. if you get stranded on an empty street at 4 in the morning and have nowhere to go, she’ll come. If you are disturbingly upset and need a shoulder to cry on, she’ll leave all her work and be by your side. If you don’t want to eat alone at a Food joint, she’ll pretend that she’s hungry and join you just to ensure that you have food. Her fun side is no less fun either. He crazy dances in DJ nights, Section parties etc. brought life to the party and rose everyone’s spirits. She is candid with her opinions and speaks her heart out-there’s no ‘Milawat’ in whatever she says- she says what she believes and she practices what she believes. A great observer and judge of men, she’s a born leader and will go places. I believe a nation like ours needs leaders like her. ...APAL Chotu!!! The life of RARE, it would be impossible to put into words the life that Richa brings into a group. Always there to support you irrespective of her own difficulties, her enthusiasm is infectious. The countless times she has listened to my tantrums, and helped me get over a sad result, be it grades or competitions!! Do you remember the comment made in PGP-1? That was when I got to know you, and from then, our friendship has only increased exponentially. My passion for Friends is matched only by yours :). Always be this cheerful and awesome! Hope we end up getting the same location. Keep in touch irrespective of that! Best of luck for future, personally and professionally!...BAPAT ABHISHEK VISHWAS There are some people whom you meet and then forget, others whom you meet and stay in touch and only a very very few who become a part of your life and stay along. Richa, you have played so many roles in these 2 years for me. That of a friend, a companion, a mentor, a critic, the list goes on. Even for the individual competitions, I have never submitted the final document without first showing to you and it has become a habit now for everything. In a way, you have spoiled me with your super selfless and always “giving” nature. Me, EMS and Bapat would always be indebted to you for the way you helped us with our LIME presentation. Not because you worked relentlessly even without being a part of it, but because you defined the true essence of RARE. My MBA would have been incomplete without you, Richa! Would miss you the most when I will ever be hungry. On your request, giving the second â??Râ?? to you. raRe zindabad! ...RUCHIK KIRTI GANDHI

Aey Aunty! Hehe. Well mere naam main hi Rishab aata hai :P Is se jyada bada connection kya ho sakta hai? :P. You are like a brother to me :). Someone with whom I always loved spending time. Part of our cherished group PARIS. Endless outings, Cooking on RIP together, 500Rs. ka paan and even Library buddy for 1 trimester :P I always had a lot of fun with you. I loved pulling your leg all the time, But believe me you are the greatest sport I have ever seen. Meri koi itni taang kheechega toh I might not lose it but you kept you cool and kept laughing :D. Great you are :D. But Still, If unintentionally I had ever hurt you than I hope you would forgive me for that knowing the type of stupid kid I am :). My time with you was not limited to having fun. You have inspired me all along. I owe my batch rank to you. It’s like I was trying to play catch up and imitate you. But the amount of hardwork you put is unparallel. People say that success is a function of more hardwork and less talent. Hell, you got both. You are going to go a long long way Bro :). Just do not forget us. Delhi main milte rehna. Always always keep in touch. :) ...Ishan Rishabh Kansal From IIT to IIM, nothings must have change in you, nothing! A 26 year old kid when it comes to studies, you are one of the most calm people I must have seen. If I could imbibe even 1 percent of your work ethic, diligence and industriousness, I’d feel I have accomplished a great bit. That you were part of the first group I had here in PARIS goes to show how close you are to my heart. I have known batch rank single-digit people before and I have seen them here, and let me tell you you are different. There’s more simplicity and humbleness to your life than all of theirs combined. From SR-12 to Indore to Khandwa to perhaps Udaipur (please make plans! :P), you’ve been one of my best friends and someone who I’d cherish to continue sharing this amazing thread of camaraderie for the longest of times to come! You are one person I don’t need to wish luck for your life ahead, as there’s nothing that can stop you from reaching the zenith! Stay in touch! ...SUKHAD CHATURVEDI Mankind’s natural inclination is to avoid danger, and hence comes our predisposition to be the back benchers. So, when someone who’s been allotted the coveted last row seat, voluntarily shifts to the first row, you take note! Yes my friends, the person is none other than Rishab Parashar.Almost as wise as his years (:P), Rishab is the perfect IITian- full on Padhaku, one who gets marks because he loves studying and not the other way around. Infact, word’s been going around that he’s considering applying for a FPM degree. The number of outings we’ve had is beyond count, and as the designated food orderer of our group, he was just perfect. His singing style is Legendary and so is his love for Hair-oils(not known to many, he’s also an expert chef). Your company was always fun, (even the way you mock me :P) and always will be. My Bharat Bhraman might soon take me to your target zone so there’s no need to say goodbye.. Till we meet again :)...APAL

Rishabh (or Rishu :P ) !! soft spoken and a silent guy who would always be ready to help you! You were my neighbour in Section A in PGP1 for 1 whole year and believe me it was fun ! Very intelligent and an excellent presenter! You can always see him in his branded clothes! :P :P Not many people knew about you until you proved yourself with your grades! Had a lot of fun in your balcony in Pataal lok. Then there were those card sessions in term 3, I felt very bad on the last day of term 3 when I realized that I wont be sharing space with you and Anshu bhai any more !! Then obviously there was Munich :) What a great planner you are and also a caring person I mus say ( I am sure Aman , Rohan , Nagdev, Hitesh and many others who spent time with you on exchange trips would agree to this )!! Still remember the night in Prague when all of us were wasted and you took the responsibility of taking us safely to our hostel! :P Although you have child like face, you have grown up and matured enough to be in the top 50 of the batch !! :) Though many people wont know about you, I am one of the fortunate ones to spend times with you (Balcony, Section party, Group parties, Exchange, Munich , nuremberg, etc) Cheers to good times! :)...RAHUL YADAV

Ritu, my friend for two years, is one of those people whose purity of heart has left me spellbound. This grey-eyed beauty is very outgoing yet emotional, smart but honest, short tempered yet extremely attached to her near & dear ones. I still remember the first term ritu who was home-sick all the time and the one during internship... waha pe toh iski apne boss se aur PG owner se khaas banti thi :P :P. She has so many shades within the same person. Also, she has been the victim of my constant leg-pulling at many occasions..dont worry dear...I would continue victimizing you :) . May you get all happiness in life, take care :) ...SHOBHNA SHRUTI Our dear Madam, tension lene wali bandi ...calm krna padhta hai bar bar..but a cool girl to hangout with ...u r down to earth n u take care of people around you....remember the food u used to get frm home...have a great life ahead n chill bhi krna thoda :P...good luck :)... AKHIL DATTANA The girl with different eyes is what I will remember of you. I even asked you once ( or maybe twice) if you wear contact lens or is it natural. A smart and confident person and always smiling while talking is what I like about you. All the best for your future... :)... SWARNENDU SEN We became good friends during our internship at a company which should not be named. :P. we bonded over evening snacks in Mumbai streets and multiple lunches in our company cafeteria cum dining room :P and because of having a common enemy (Bhedia).. :D I think it was because of your weekend stories, facebook bulletin and constant chatter that i survived that god forsaken place.. Thanks a lot for that. :) you are a fun loving, hard working gal (provided you get appreciation :P).. likes to joke around a lot which makes it really easy for you to make new friends.. Stay as you are.. Keep up the spirit and stay in touch :)...Parth Kosada A fun loving person full of life.. very determined and jo thaan liya karke hi maanti hai.. upar se ye jheel si aankhen.. :) bas aur kya chahiye! I found a truly amazing friend in you, Just stay d way u r n u’ll achieve anything u want.. I’m sure we’ll remember the chappan trips, the bdays n other days’ celebrations!, the mumbai intern and many more memories for a long time to come...U made IIM Indore a special place n I hope I don’t spend a day widout talking to u or seeing ur face,, Wishing u all the luck in d world and all d best for Pidilite... :)...RACHIT MITTAL Ritu would be the girl who has complained against me to seniors for me being late and for not performing the Bakra task :D :D Kafi tension leti hai ye bandi and at times you have to calm her down. Nevertheless she is a very sweet, cool girl to hangout with. I really like her simplistic and down to earth natureâ?¦.and I wish you all the very best for your future ahead. ...ABHIKET GAURAV

Rizwan is one of my first few friends on campus. He is really good at heart. I remember how we used to chat on Whatsapp in between the lectures.

Lasting impressions about college :

The girl who always sleeps in the class (She once told me that itâ??s some disease!), the girl who trolls so many times that itâ??s now difficult to keep that count, the girl who eats so much and then again wants to go to the night mess:-D H, you are a great friend to have. Also, itâ??s quite remarkable to see the dedication with which you work for the things, like IIC, Utasha, Currenc-I and everything. Like we always said, you make the life of your colleagues so easy; they donâ??t have to work at all:-P. Waise, You speak very well and are super confident and everyone respects this. All the best! ...GHOLAP GAURAV ANIL Rohini, You are someone I immensely respected since day 1. I am a big fan of your confidence, your calmness under pressure and even your voracious appetite :) But most of all, I am also quite happy that my prediction has come true. Wish you all the success and happiness in your future endeavors....Deepak Talluri The first girl I spoke to on campus Or should I say the first girl who dared to speak to me ( I had those crazy side burns ..:) ) Your rocket speed speech and wit is something worth experiencing than explaining. I will not even mention about your work ethic, the world knows. A very busy girl on campus You were able to handle so many PORs with utmost ease. You have a beautiful smile but well the moment I took the camera out things were different. Please give away that poker face and let the mortals capture your beautiful mystical smile. All the best..!!! Lastly I want to shout “Rohini for President” ...SUMANTH J I know no other girl in campus as talented and smart as you. And still you are so down to earth about it. The kind of confidence and dedication that you have is commendable. One who can handle work equivalent of 10-20 people with such ease. Very intelligent, sincere, sweet, friendly and cheerful. But still, you will be most remembered for the fact that you must have slept in almost all the sessions in these two years and also your infinite capacity to eat! :D All the best for all your future endeavors ...SONICA GUPTA I think I’m the first non-section C person to write here! Rohini is the most helpful person you can have around and one of the most meticulous people you can have on your team if you’re competing for an event. She’ll go out of her way to help you and this, despite always having to contend with a hectic schedule (she gets involved in too many activities and is the proverbial workaholic). She is the personification of the phrase ‘Seedhi Sadhi’ (although it has come to my attention that she’s suddenly found a liking for long drives... hmm ;) ) Good luck for your life ahead, Hech! I’m sure you’ll be very successful :)...ANOORAG BISWAS

Let me confess, at one point, I thought of not taking up Ahvan Ops POR, but then, you were there and that was a great help. I might have been a pain a lot of times because of my insistence on details, but you were sort of the balancing force in Ahvan team. Playing TT, to talking on philosophical topics with you at sunset point behind FPM Block was fun-time. One of my 4-5 friends during PGP1, an honest, well-wishing friend and colleague in PGP2 and your honest feedback has hopefully helped me improve a bit too.:) May God bless you with some great achievements in life and get happiness and respect wherever you go.

Rohitesh - The entrepreneur! i expected his page to be blank till last date as he would be busy with his work. I am a fan of the amount of focus and effort that you dedicate to your passion! His room will be full of sticky notes with checklists in them! He is the technologist! Most of all, a very humble friend. Has the go getter attitude and loves holidaying esp goa :) All the best for your aspirations and B in touch!...ABHIJIT DAS One of the most chilled, easy going people on campus, and yeah, the famous entrepreneur of our circle. Also, one of the tightly knit group of wing mates since the beginning of IIM I, we had a load of random and hilarious discussions over dinner everyday. Wish you a great career and great times ahead !!...DEBOPRIO DUTTA Dude, you are one of the most enthusiastic and hard working guy here. I will always cherish the moment spent with you. The way you are focused towards your goals impresses me a lot. You will always be one of the inspirations for me. You are always ready to help people when required and that’s the best part about you...... All the Best for all your future endeavors & do keep in touch....KISHLAI KUMAR Very few know of the entrepreneur living among us, someone who sacrificed his three months of unadulterated fun just to nurture his venture. When the most of us are more than satisfied with our jobs, Rohitesh is eagerly waiting to take the plunge in the sea of entrepreneurship. What really intrigues us is his ability to maintain that smile in the toughest of the times â?? perhaps an indication of the metal he is made of. I simply canâ??t remember an angry or upset Rohitesh. With the effort that you put in to things that you like, I am sure you can achieve whatever you want to. Just keep the smile intact forever! ...PARTHA PRATIM PANDA

Always smiling and ready to help.... you are one of the most genuine persons I met on campus. Rongki is also a hard working person & kicks-ass when it comes to sports such as football & badminton.

Started the IIM journey Floor-mates â?? Sorry cudnt think of a better term:P.. u were lyk this knowledgable prson amonst the E-block fellas n hence trusted u wid watevr u said.. Guess dats y we let the entire planning for RIP to u ;) n we werenâ??t let down ;) very proactive n quick at decision making u have all the traits for becoming a good leader ;) but ya more than RIP I guess we had more fun at the HOP.. Trekking up, the awesome dish u all prepared, then ur spirited race to summit (honestly I dint expect u to reach 4th n so was pleasantly surprised) wer we almost came first as a team, the tent building exercise wer u directed the team along.. all in all those were the best days of my campus life at IIM Indore and u surely were a part of it :) so thanx for making my stay here memorable n all the best for future :) ...KRIT DOSHI “You never know”- quote by my dearest friend Roshan Anand. This quote was an inspiration to me in IIMI journey. At first when I met Roshan I thought of him as a very serious person. But as time went on and we became very good friends, I admired numerous qualities he carried. Good at heart, helping, wonderful and inspiring, this is the Roshan I met at IIM Indore. He has always been like a big brother to me,cheering me up in hard times. We faced some difficult times too and came out of it overcoming the instability and hence among all friends I consider him as the most mature and stable person. We had lots of fun and wonderful moments during this journey. One moment which memorable for him will be his encounter with the guy next to his room (haha if you recollect that roshan :-D [hint: arms length]). All I can say is many things happened in these two years and we learnt a lot form everything, had great experiences. For future I believe you have tremendous potential and have a great business acumen. You have brilliant ideas but you lack execution due to certain constraints. I am sure you will overcome every problem and be successful & happy in life. Thanks for giving me a wonderful friend and big brother. :-)...TAMBE ABHIJIT DINESH Roshan ‘Bhaai’..... Friend of Friends... the most mature and sensible guy I met in IIMIndore. Even the most respected one I would say... The guy who can talk on any subject at any length and the best part is he also has the courage to listen patiently... He has a sense of business and maturity that is unmatched and makes me feel jealous. Dependable, Calculative, Energetic & Humble are few words that define Roshan. He always has a smile on his face and he never loses courage. I wish we had met early so that I could have learned more from you. You don’t need good wishes because wherever you would be , in whatever condition, you will always come out successful with flying colors... Cheers to our friendship...MOHD ZEESHAN KHAN

I first met you in some queue on day 2 at IIM Indore where you were giving some gyaan to your NIT people and I thought this is one of the irritating nerds; too soon realizing that I would be the one asking for that gyaan(Consulting) in everything I do on this campus. I feel honoured that you have allowed me to take your case all the while:p. But on a serious note you have been one of my closest friend and will be in Life. I will miss the endless discussions we had on IV days on all possible topics, the arguments to go out, go on exchange, â??be normal and humanâ??, RIP cooking, and of course I am sure you will still need my help to have the best toast. Haha I think I can go on and onâ?¦ But given the space others will need on this page, I know you will continue to be my Consultant forever:p ...Variksh Thaker New friend no.1 at IIM-Indore and what a way to start it was. Gandhi, you came all guns blazing into IIM-Indore and itâ??s awesome that your drive and enthusiasm hasnâ??t died down one bit ever since. Youâ??re level of planning, discipline, dedication and hard-work are things I could only hope to replicate at some point of time in my life. Work-ethic apart, youâ??re a gem of a person and your thoughts and opinions are ones I hold in very high regard. If thereâ??s one person who came into this college with BHAGs and achieved it all â?? thatâ??s you!!! Always be the â??achieverâ?? you are Gandhi. I hope to see you in high places sooner rather than later....SHAH SOHAM SAMIR ANJANI 1st term: He’s Good, 2nd term: Oh my god, he’s really good, 3rd term: He’s the brightest one around, 4th term: How the hell can he be so great, 5th term: Oh I am sick and tired of praising him and liking his FB victory posts, 6th term: What’s wrong with him, why can’t he just relax and stop winning competitions and PPOs for a change.. Well, that’s Ruchik Gandhi for you, tireless striving, never resting on one’s laurels, continuously climbing the ladder yet never ever forgetting the base, standing by principles, never quitting,, never compromising. The Samurai of IIM Indore, Ruchik is a natural leader because he leads by example. A lot many other accolades have already been showered upon him, so I don’t need to reiterate them :). I still remember the day when I leaped in joy and ran from JAM to PI shop shouting ‘Ruchik is in my group, Ruchik is in my group”. On a personal note, you are one of the best friends I have made here because you are always ready to listen. Am happy that despite your hectic schedule, we’ve been able to spend some time together :P.. Am sure will hear about you more from the media than in person. Exciting times are ahead :)...APAL Chikkkkkkkkkyyyyy :D I want to shout this name with a biig smile on my face whenever I meet you. You aren’t just my elder brother but also a great source of inspiration for me.I keep joking all the time and keep doing masty but I do all that purposely to get scolded from you :D I love how you are so protective for me. I really cherish the bond we have and its actually difficult to put it in words what you mean to me. I feel honoured to know IIM Indore ka best student more as a person. I love that you share things with me which you might not with anyone else. Thanks for being there always. Wish you lots of happiness and success in life :) ...PALAK MAHANOT

Rudrashis will strike you as a sharp person, always willing to help you out. We only know how helpful the proximity of his room to the pandal durng Durga Puja was and in spite of all our incessant pestering, he never refrained to help. An ardent tennis lover. So much so, he used to go play tennis at 11:00 in the night and would return late in the night, one thing I have always wondered at: how can one muster so much energy and enthusiasm? He even brings his ‘Nadal-y’ ‘tennis-y’ grunts while at badminton nowadays. A future colleague of mine at RBS, hope to know you better and looking forward for some really good times! :-)...DEBAYAN BISWAS Mr Roy...We became friends while playing cricket in SR 12 wings. He is a simple person and is committed to his responsibilities. We have spent a lot of time doing assignments, projects, going for drinks etc. in the fifth and sixth terms. We have a common attitude of keeping things simple and short. He is a very bright person and fun to hang out with. Wish you a great life bhaiâ?¦RBS mein macha dena...Keep in touch:) ...ATISHAY KUMAR JAIN Mr. Roy.. If you need an example for modesty he’s the guy you should be looking upto. Maintaining a low profile yet wooing everyone with his dedication and knowledge whenever he got a chance. And Second year main toh phod diya aapne bhai. So many competitions. gulp. Anyways, I would always cherish the extra long Tennis and Cricket sessions we had. And the Cab ride to Square. Haha. It’s going up as most creepy yet so fun ride in my books :P/ Always be the nice person you are :). Stay in touch. Wish you all the best for your future :)...Ishan Rishabh Kansal A fun person to hang out with, Rudra is also a very helpful and dedicated guy. Fin mein ladka faad hai and his Day 0 RBS crack is a testament to his abilities. We have spent some great times over TT, Tennis and of course drinks and his humility, friendliness and confidence always shines through. Best of luck for the future Mr. Rudra!...MRIGANK GUTGUTIA Rudra you are certainly one of the guys i wishes i had spent more time with....it is always a pleasure talking to u...the few times we did go out together (patal pani, dinners, tennis etc) were great fun...you were always the guy i came to discuss the paper with (how the hell u always knew all the answers in fin exams!!).....u r one of the smartest guys i know on campus and the most hard working.....u will achieve a lot in life and if you can retain ur humility u will always have a great bunch of friends....delhi jaa rha hai to thoda cautious rehna... sab dilli waale mere jaise acche nahi hote :P....do keep in touch....wish you all the success and happiness in life :)...PUNIT GUPTA

Ajay.! It is nafees biryani that which made us friends initially... Later on our rapport ameliorated day by day...Cricket during nights...mess...and ultimate preparation for final placements..all the main crux of my Planet-I stint was with your presence... Thank you for all the support and encouragement..I hope you will continue your cool attitude, pursue a great career and enjoy your life with food and alcohol..Cheers..! ...AMBATI AVINASH Ajay was someone I always felt really happy interacting with. It definitely helped that he was a very humble, friendly and good natured guy. The highlight though definitely has to be when one of my predictions regarding CBC came true :) I genuinely hope that we stay in touch once we leave this campus...Deepak Talluri Ajay!! The planning would always be impeccable to make his name true. Very well planned, dedicative and cool guy. Pleasing attitude and very humble. Enjoys food and one who made Nafees as a habit to others. Nafees would lose a great brand ambassador after you leave the campus.It was fun playing cricket / least count and we cherish all the moments with you. The person whose finger prints do not work in winter. Man !! That was really surprising to me.. I think Vamsi can create a good movie story out of it.. Have a great life ahead and Keep in touch :)...SURESH MALLULA

Mommy!!! Got to know you during RIP. What fun we had with Chaubeyji and all. And the nights spent playing poker, where you won everything, and the song that you sung later :D. Got to know you even more during OFD (alas!) and HOP. One of the easiest thing to notice about you is that your mood can be easily read off your face. Happiness and worry, both starkly visible. It was fun hanging around with you especially when you did crazy stuff like ‘kajari ko tapali’ and screaming contest with snoopy. Extremely happy that you got what you desired. Wish you all the very best for your future. Stay happy always :)...KARANDEV SINGH KAMRA u r one patience personified girl..hav given me company in almost all the tough fin subjects that I had taken..no one can ever match the way u cud fluently speak 5 languages..tat is simply incredible..I wish u all the happiness in ur lyf and do stay in touch :) :)...VENKAT DUBASH.

You are a pretty kid, and an awesome mommy to me too! muah!! For all the patience and mentoring, for being there for me everytime I needed someone, right by my room, and even otherwise! And all the “Ayyo!! Fin-aa” followed by ur funny laugh! And “Teach me shuttle di” and other stuff not meant for a public post!! :P (You know what!!) Akka, Amma, Darling, Baby, and a sweetheart at all that! I know none else who’ll be a more amazing and truly brilliant “family-girl”!! And I’m really blessed to have been a part of your life!! Akka, no crying reading this! :P But dear, I’m going to miss you sooo badly!! But you’re family, always a ping away! Stay there for me as always! You’re someone I just can’t think of my days ahead without!! My akka!!! :) :)...Nivetha kanchi re kanchi re...... u always remind me of this song only..... got to knw you during HOP only. you are happy and cheerful person in urself..... and gives that good vibe to be with... but u r a little different hatke person.... as she was all energetic in treks during HOP and use to be completely exhausted otherwise...... gym lover..... always worries about putting on weight.... has different kind of laughter and always laughs off when the joke is over in her unique way........very nice and emotional person at heart.... lovely persona to be around.... very pure and gentle soul......u always give that vibe.....hope to be in contact always... may god bless you :-) yey.........PRIYA PARMAR Got to know you recently through a project (btw are we ever completing that one :P).

S Nitish Sivaramakrishnan :p, as I always call him ( & love to see his irritated face :P), one of the most cheerful persons I have ever seen. He takes all the comments on him sportingly (though never cross the line, he can be brutal in his counter comments :p :p). Everytime I cracked a joke on him it ended it with a bigger joke on me :p (but still I never gave up :p :d). Glad to have a friend like you, Wishing you all the very best for future :-) and hope that our paths may cross again in the future....PANKAJ DHINGRA Nitish,the best mentor one can ever get and the most humble person to be friends with. Intelligent,patient,helpful,motivator,sweet,guitarist,sketcher-I am short of words to describe your talent.You helped a lot during summers,sometimes being more worried than I was.Even after summer placements,you were still in touch-telling about each course and each prof. Thank you for all your support,guidance and listening to me patiently when I used to crib after every quiz and you used to say “Look forward,was just a quiz :P”. Respect comes from heart for you. It is tough to bid you farewell because you are more of a friend than a senior. But I hope that our paths will cross somewhere in future. All the best for the new chapter in your life- GE. Wishing you a great career ahead,stay happy always and try to stay in touch ;)....SAAKSHI Acer buddy. It took a long time meeting you for the first time on campus, but Jab We Met, we built an instant rapport. Your conviction and clarity of thought is something that I admire you for. Lest I forget, your drawings (amazing art) are well-etched in my mind. Wishing you great success in the years to come! ...Rishabh Trivedi Probably we had a good rapport cos of our BBSR connection. To me you come up as the “Don’t give shit, Dont take shit” guy. Really like the sketches that you make. Wish you all the best in life. Keep in touch....RASHMI RANJAN KAR Nitish, I’ll always remember you as the only ‘metal’ buddy I had on campus :) There were others but we have had many discussions and I have always enjoyed those... Your superbly diverse playlist and how you would talk about some fairly technical aspects was really neat! And the best part is how we used to keep swapping song recos (even today!) for the entire two years here, hoping that never changes :D Though I think you always found mine a little too heavy ;) But your deep appreciation for music and fantastic sketching skills will be something I definitely remember :) We had some good times in first year talking about how the system was f***ed, ‘information’ sharing and taking random potshots but drifted apart in second year, don’t look at me man, that was all you :P I know this will change once we leave this place, we should try and meet up at least when we happen to be in B’lore at the same time (or any other city!) I know you’re seeing red now, recalling my repeat bail outs for Gurgaon meet ups but I’m telling you thats not the usual me da! Blame the weather and my heat addled brain for making promises I couldn’t keep ;) Stay in touch and keep those song recos coming buddy! ...Avinash Chidambar

The matured man with the thick moustache. My tea partner :P Most of all the person with whom I can stay and not utter a single word and leave and still feel like I just had a good time and be comfortable. A tea lover and a chess player.

Also he has a good GK quotient and a good database. ...ASHWIN SASIDHARAN M P Very knowledgeable and practical - as is obvious from his looks. Always has a strong point of view on anything and everything under the sun. Is not very fond of social media or getting photographed. Loves tea :D He has a strange knack of not being very active on facebook and yet knowing everything that happens on facebook. I will always remember the first conversation we had when we came to campus - your attendance record in the yoga session. .Sabarish - I wish you the very best in your life. Stay the way you are :).

Sabornee, our boss during the RIP. Sweet and cute come instantly to mind thinking of you. But, a very sensible person who actually cares and understands. (this is a first hand experience, so I can say with confidence). But, sabornee (a crush of chaube g, u broke his heart), why do u always wear blue sports shoes, always even with payjasmas. ;) After RIP, I somehow felt on few occasions, that you kind of drifted apart for some reasons. We could have been better friends. Yes, I do speak a lot, so if anything ever hurt you, am,sorry for it. And this sensible, sweet and understated kind of personality will make you a very successful person in future....ARPIT TANDON Sabornee is a quite girl. Few of the first I’ve met on campus (W7). She is creative (wacky bazinga ideas in first year), sings well (got to know after HOP)...all in all multi talented but you won’t think so unless you know her...It’s good knowing you!...SAI PRASANNA KUMAR LAVU Sabornee ..a really sweet girl and my partner in all the crimes ( Fin league, Advaita and Chakravyuh)â?¦Though we didnâ??t talk at all in first year..it was great knowing her in 2nd yearâ?¦we had a great together gossiping in the corridor :P Wishing a happy life ahead! Stay in touch :) ...KIRTI SONI Hi Sabornee....she has one of the most unique & memorable names in the history of civilization as validated by my repeated attempts to spell it out to the guards at the IIM gate. First of all, it’s been an absolute pleasure knowing you and working with you on the live project. As early as I got know you, you have come across as a very dependable person who despite her potential for speeding ahead, often chooses to slow down and walk with the others. You’re an in-born leader, a person who stands for balance, neither extremes of joy or sorrow are enough to shake your composure. Its so sweet of you to remember that random quote by me. Lemme see what all I remember you with....the familiar punctuality with which you turn up for breakfast/dinner/skype conferences, the acrobatics with which you carry all your stuff - mess card/purse/mobile/cash/etc. in your hand (bags and pockets are for dummies, right ?). You’ve given me good advice every now and then and I’m sure there’s a lot more I could learn from you. One little advice for you though, as much as you maintain your calm and composed outlook, enjoy yourself a li’lle more, you earned it !!... DEBOPRIO DUTTA

Ill tell the same thing got to know you after HOP!! your a cool head and definitely not an easy going personality... you strive for perfection....but your down to earth and a freq gymmer :P.... and yeah during HOP you wanted to do all kinds of stunts.. now I can call you Adventure Man:P.... Wish you all the success in the future mate!!! Cheers!!!...GALI STEPHEN STANLEY Sai- Stud! You are one guy I know who has gone to the Gym for the longest time in my two years at Indore.:P You are a simple hardworking guy, who has always been there whenever his friends needed. You are also one of the maximum competition winning guys on campus which is a testament to your hard work. You’ve always been there whenever I needed any help and I hope we will continue to remain friends in the future as well. Cheers! ...TANMAY LALIT TAPASE A very staright forward person who genuinely believes that there is no substitute to hardwork; rarest of the rare qualities you can find here at IIM Indore. Had met him at SP Jain interviews before coming to Planet I. It’s great knowing you too. ...AFZAL C.M one of the most honest person in the campus . I ll remember your supporting words after Mahindra war room :) It was one of the genuine feedback I had on that day :) I really had fun cheering ‘Sai, Sai , Sai’ whenever a prof asked ‘Who will tell the brief of this case’. My best wishes man :) Stay in touch :) cheers!...KAVINKUMAR R The most sincere person in section B, you were the reason why our OM profs were not mad at us (or at least not as much as they could have been). Got to know you a bit when we were rehearsing for that disastrous talent night skit. Although the memory of the skit still makes me cringe, the experience of rehearsing of it was fun. You were a true team player throughout. Wish you the best!...SHREYA TANDON

The first thing that strikes to you about Nachi is his refined and classy taste in everything. I mean someone who is a fan of BlackAdder ought to have a good taste :) I had a lot of common interests with Nachi so it is always easy to strike a conversation with him. I sincerely wish him a successful and happy professional and personal life :)...Deepak Talluri Nachi- You are one person about whom I regret not spending enough time with. At the onset, you always seem so sophisticated, refined and blah blah; but one drink with you is enough to know the real ‘you’. Jokes apart, I always found you to be extremely balanced, level-headed and mature. At the same time, you are always ready to go out and party! I hope to be in touch with you much more in the coming years. Cheers!...TANMAY LALIT TAPASE Nachi Gandu aka KingInTheNorth..The oldest person I know on campus right from Agrus.. Really great to have met him at planet-I..Will seem all classy, sophisticated and reserved.. not many know him well on campus..but easily the coolest dude ive met who you can totally get into street level talks with..one guy who has genuinely helped shape me as a person and made me realize the importance of “Credibility”..Right from being “Why So Qurious” finalists to section fun to RIP to AOE and the four wonderful months on exchange,we ve bonded to become the best of friends. Am really lucky to have such an awesome friend who knows and pretty much remembers everything(a walking talking encyclopedia).Introduced me to a lot of songs and series which have made a tad bit cooler :P His ongoing effort to make me a bit cooler and as refined as him are showing some effect..hopefully someday Ill be able to half as awesome as he is :D Im sure we’ll always stay in touch and looking hoping for more good memories beyond campus..cheers! :P :)... SHRIKANTH LAXMINARAYAN To encapsulate Nachiket in the term “best friend” would be a grave injustice of the times I have spent with him. He is reserved but when the walls come down, you have someone who will stand by you. And, in the silence that comes after, you find the sincerity of an everlasting friendship. We have conversed about things small and trivial and of purpose and meaning but in all of them what remains with you is the authenticity and simplicity of the person he is. As a friend, the lasting impression on you is his honesty - the courage to tell you what he truly feels. Very few people leave you with such thoughts. I wish you the best in everything you do in life! ...SYED ERAJ HASSAN inSANE sits right behind me in class. Easy to talk to kinda guy. He has a thing for junk food, you can always spot him with a pack of chips or coke (or rather a mix of all the soft drinks). He has a very dominating voice - put it to good use plz :P ... It’s good knowing you!...SAI PRASANNA KUMAR LAVU

Sanjeev.. The ITCOM guy at IIM Indore. He is very enthusiastic about his work and passionate for his goals in life. He was 5 (out of 5) pointer at Infosys training. He is very much interested in IT stuffs and has lot of knowledge in this area. We have lot of commonalities - we studied in Navodaya Vidyalaya (not in same branch), did B.Tech in Comp Science (from different universities), worked in Infosys (at different locations) and then studied in IIM Indore (in same section for first 3 terms). Having done so many similar things in life I can understand him very well. He is very logical and good at analysing things from different perspective. We have shared lot of memorable moments here at IIM Indore and the best one was the competition season when we participated in many events. I remember the ITC case competition in which Sanjeev did research on many things and came out with good findings but the funny thing in that competition was the argument that took place between him and Abhiket Gaurav :D :D. I was really surprised at that moment and did not believe that both of them can be so furious. He is a cool and hardworking person I have met at IIM indore. I have enjoyed your company for last two years. All the very best for the future ladke. Be in Touch!...KAUSHLENDRA KUMAR The “Bihaadi” of our batch....known for the “kachada king”, “gamcha gang”. He is a source of entertainment with all his haunted stories and dirty jokes. Nowadays wakes up early @ 4AM for some unknown reasons :P ......Be it throwing grains to ducks by stealings from beggars....or taking snap of Duck’s ass......is a bihaadi to his heart....the latest one being,”Kaun sa movie dekh raha...ohhh...yeh THOORD (THOR) hai naa...” one shouldn’t speak of “Infosys” or “Navodaya” in front of him or he will give you hours of pain (his lectures and stories)....Had an awesome time together these 2 years.....keep in touch buddy....wish you all the luck.......HEMANTA PRAMANICK One of best guys I met on campus.... There are some guys you dont need to know for years to be best friends, and you are one of them.... True Bihari...People used to call you... Sanjeev Kumaad... But I will say you are one very nice person, always willing to help, and one ITCOMmer I can depend on.... Wish you all the best... Ab to we are part of Tata Family...So milte rahenge.... ...SHAUNAK VISHWAKARMA Guruji, Thats what I have been calling you and will continue to do so. ;-p. I don’t even remember how you got your name and when we became friends. ;) But you have been my one stop solution for all Internet problems. Glad to meet someone like you. Best of luck Guruji. TATA mai jaake bhool maat jaana......ASHISH KUMAR MALLIK “Karm kar...phal ki chinta mat kar” and when I look at you I feel you have been practicing it in the best possible manner. The best part is your ability to work with all the enthusiasm even if you didn’t get result last time. You are honest with the work you take up...particularly the responsibilities with ITCom (responding to requests even at odd hours). I’m sure you will maintain the same spirit. Wish you a great life ahead!!...NEERAJ KUMAR

Sanjiban Da has truly been a big brother to most of us Bongs at campus here....Extremely genuine, very meticulous and has a very pleasing personality...PGP1 ka ‘Dulara’ - sorry, you know how we really like pulling your leg - you would have got used to this by now, haven’t you! I was very impressed by your strong stance of sticking to a Fin profile during finals when you could have taken an easy way out and got an Ops profile....really admire that. Now toh you are a hotshot Investment Banker and would be doing big deals, meeting with CEOs etc....Ok, without a bit of Bengali, this testimonial would be incomplete...Bhule jeyona kintu, ar boli ki, boyesh toh holo onek, biyeta kore felo ebar :P Wish you all the success in life, stay in touch :)...RUDRASHIS ROY One of the most humorous bongs at campus certainly. His typical â??Etai Jibonâ?? spoken in proper context would often make me LMAO. I remember how he took a certain setback in right spirit (December 2012, you know what Iâ??m talking about) but overcame that in June and went on to grab the only front-end Finance role in campus. Wouldnâ??t be surprised to see you as the wolf of the wall street in a few years to come. Stay blessed, and have fun, â??kenoki etai jibonâ?? :D...ISHAN BOSE My neighbour, take a looot of initiative be it group assignments, live projects or bong festivals.I guess i’ve spent most of my time in the corridor chatting with you. I still remember the state in which i found you a day after the bong dinner - it was hilarious. I cherish the time we used to crib about all the things in this world :P... It’s good knowing you!...SAI PRASANNA KUMAR LAVU Sanjiban, still cherish the memories of RIP especially Mafia game where you were often evicted early, and then used to fight. You have the best Bengali accent by far in the batch. It adds so much charm in your personality. A very humble guy who maintains his composure in tense situations. Sanjiban is someone, you like to talk and spend time. He has this nice, easy going personality which I really admire. Wish you all the luck for your future. ...ARPIT TANDON Sanjiban Da..He is a very helpful and simple person.We first met at the TIME cruise party, where he guided me through the options at hand and why I should accept IIM Indore call. Hardworking and devoted, he has been of great help and support across these two years. Thank you once again. Wishing you all the very best in all your future endeavors..Keep in touch :) ...PARAG PODDAR Sanjiban da..one of the most helpful and inspiring persons I have ever seen. A hub of energy, it just radiated when he speaks. Enjoys huge popularity and takes up things with a challenge.

It was always pure fun interacting with you. There was a time when you almost made it to my speed dial list...! The first one whom i would always call in times of trouble or the first one whom i would call up for having fun time out.

Sitting next to you in Sec C for an year was the most awesome thing. Best part was we used to sleep in class one by one. We used to poke each other in class always.You are the closest person here and I am not able to accept that you are leaving the campus. I’m gonna miss everything we did together..Studying, eating, dancing, checking out gals, bitching about people :P, dancing, drinking, laughing, fighting, walking, teasing, arguing etc..I will miss the most our arguments on hot topics and we ended up fighting so many times. I will miss those intellectual talks( I know you won so many times..so what..unh).. The crazy things we have done together like dancing at OAT at 3 am :P photo shoots at sunset point, getting sloshed, blabbering and fighting when high, playing scissor paper rock every now and then, fighting for smokes, arguing on whoz the hottest gal in the campus :P, making drawings, coming to each other’s room to just say sorry, and making random stories for each other...the list never ends!!! I had best time with you here..life would have been incomplete without you in IIM- I..I don’t think, I’ll get anyone else in life who is so compatible in everything (except one or two things..u know he he )..But the journey doesn’t ends here..there are lot more exciting things yet to come. I know you will always need an HR in your life :P :P Thanks for being in life..I am blessed to have an intelligent, calm,chilled, confident, inspiring, adjusting and an overall awesome person in my life!! Just keep smiling and be the way you are..Our fship is dedicated to those people who used to ask questions like â??how can you be so close to a person who donâ??t even know ur language!!â?? ï?? ï?? Cheers!! P.S-I am still sorry for that LASSI prank in mess..I know you hate lassi but you love Punjabis :P :P ...payal anand

Attempt ridicules CP but at least awake whole class. Really had lovely days while giving company interview or GD together.

Saurabh - The Quants and Economics God. You are one of the most down to earth guys I have met in IIM Indore. You have an immense amount of knowledge but still you never show it off. Indeed a great listener. Not a quality which you find in a lot of people. You are like a brother to me. We might not talk everyday but still I believe that you and me both know that our friendship is much much bigger than that. Our Heated arguments (I prefer calling them passionate arguments) have troubled many people who sat with us during those times. But it’s fun arguing.. Isn’t it? And Who can forget those cricket days? :D. Just one advice for your future. Don’t dive too much :P Hehe. Anyways, I really wish you good luck for your future. I hope you achieve all your dreams. I know you never believed in talking much on phone but you gotta change that one habit :P Stay in touch bro. ...Ishan Rishabh Kansal SIRJI!!! What can I say about such a simple and unassuming person!!! Its like a lamp praising the sun!! ;) One of the most intelligent and sincere persons I have ever met/interacted with and yet always ready to listen. Whatever tensions he would have in studies, he would always inquire if everything was OK with me. The incredible discussion with Trishla, you and me will always be remembered fondly, although with a sense of caution!!! Sir, please take your phone with you whenever you go to the library, since I believe 3 degrees will not be enough for you!! Here’s wishing you lots of money (ideal for a fin guy) and love, though not in that order!...BAPAT ABHISHEK VISHWAS Kunwar Babu....a very helpful and understanding wing neighbour who is one of the nerdiest guys on campus...really passionate about cricket and dislikes tennis with a passion...a fin god and an economics guru, he will really make big bucks in the world of trading. He is also a big fan of pizza, especially the cheese burst one and I never cease to be amazed by how much he can eat. Known for his rather radical views on various topics and his funny hand gestures while speaking. A great friend, I will cherish the memories of RIP and other things we shared together!...MRIGANK GUTGUTIA Saurabhâ?¦He is the babu of our groupâ?¦A very friendly person he is thorough with his concepts.Fin aur economics mein expert haiâ?¦He has a signature hand action which comes into play when he is trying to explain somethingâ?¦A very sincere and disciplined person he doesnâ??t indulge in any of the vices :).Passionate about cricket and eating cheesebust pizzas..He is very soft spoken but gets animated during discussions:).. We have spent a lot of good times since the first year especially during the RIP and HOP tripsâ?¦.Futures first mein ab machane wala hai ... Wish you a great life ahead bhai..Keep in touch:)...ATISHAY KUMAR JAIN

Saurabh, my next door neighbor for two years. A very calm and down to earth guy. He started learning guitar after coming to the campus, but the progress he made is amazing. He has evolved to be an awesome guitarist. An ardent sports lover. A brilliant shuttler and awesome squash player. He likes to keep a very low profile, but he is very helpful and good at heart. Wish you all the best for your future!!...SENAJIT CHAKI

Saurish was one of the first people I came to know here because of the Bakra Group. One thing which I still remember is his focus and attitude of ‘knowing what he wants’. He said to me on day 1, ‘I want to be in the IT field’. And this is largely true of his overall personality, calm, fun loving but still focused towards his work. Good luck dude, am sure, u’ll go miles in your career and personal life....ARPIT TANDON Saurish: one of the johnies of J Block. We first met during senior interaction and we were also the hostel block mates. Since then we have been very good friends. You are a cool, fun loving and intelligent person. I would remember you as a person who can crack jokes on any issue in hand. I wish a very successful career...Keep in touch !!!...ANIKET YEVALKAR among best buddies during Barcelona days!!! Those memorable moments... ;) Interacted less but interacted quality... Cheers to your life ahead!!...SANKALPA SARKAR Saurish always struck me as someone who had a very calm n mature head on his shoulders. Is immensely focused and self-aware and can lighten the mood is pretty much any setting. Have a great life ahead both professionally and personally. Cheers !!! ...CHAITANYA YESHWANT LELE To start with a compliment - you have an intelligent face (perhaps just as I do :P). My earliest memories of u is u raising ur pen for CP in almost all the classes inthe irst term. Got to know u better with time. You come down as a smart and friendly person who alwys has a pleasant smile on his face ! Its always great to interact with u and m sure it will be so in times to come. Wishing u all the very best in all your future endeavors ! Milte rahenge :)... AYUSH AGARWAL Saurish Suhas Jagdale!!!! you are one of the amazing personalities that I have met in the campus.... Being neighbors in the 1st year I guess I got to know you better than most....At first looking at you I thought to myself How am i gonna survive with the likes of you, but you have made my life a bit easy .. We have had our share bit of laughs and I would cherish all the moments that Ive spent. ...GALI STEPHEN STANLEY We didn’t get a chance to really hang out much... But I’m sure everyone will agree when I say that you were the typical ‘nice’ guy. Quiet resolve, easy laughter, priorities clear in mind, these are the other things that come to mind!

So many things you remembered about me....phew. At first look, this guy may appear like a lazy bloke; but you slowly get to know the talented and hardworking Sayan Bagchi. Be it reaching the national finals of MWR or clearing CFA exams to bearing up to my antics during term 1 assignments, he is a joy to work with.

Comes across as a really soft spoken and polite guy, epitomizing the Bangla language really well. The help as a part of the student exchange committee sure as hell made life easy for us. Also appreciate winning the campus round of War Room, probably the toughest competition amongst all pan B school events. Wish you great success and happiness in life, possibly would love to catch up some time soon with you. Have fun :)...ISHAN BOSE NC3 would not have been the same without the back-benchers, and especially Sayan. Sayan is the proverbial gentle giant, always easy going and with a sense of humour that lights everyone’s day up. Here is a guy who has no qualms about walking into the night mess wearing bright red pyjamas patterned with Mickey Mouse faces (or something equally ridiculous) or attending his brother’s wedding in business formals. The truth is with a guy as good natured and affable as Sayan, you wouldn’t care what he’s wearing or whether the prof in class has anything worthwhile to say; you’ll learn a lot more listening to his pearls of wisdom. I think we had a bash all of first year with a witticism here and a tongue-in-cheek remark there. With Sayan’s prowess at coming up with the most outrageous solutions to hypothetical situations, I’d be surprised if he doesn’t get into a more creative line of work later on. Poor Chitresh had to suffer a lot seated between us at the back bench :P Give this guy a straw and a pack of Frooti and what he does with them is not for the faint-hearted! All his shenanigans aside, Sayan also boasts an air of careless sophistication. If you were to walk into his room on any given day (snooping for some foreign chocolates or a box of norom sandesh perhaps), you’d find an eclectic collection of books and a movie playing on his lappy that you’ve probably never even heard of. If you need a good movie to watch, you know whom to turn to (He’ll even recommend the occasional Savita Bhabhi movie or a Don Jon). Sayan, in a nutshell, is one of the very best among us, and I hope he never changes! Good luck man :) ...ANOORAG BISWAS Sayan, I am fortunate to have had the opportunity of interacting with you as part of stepcom. This committee has been by far the best group I have worked in. Thank you for your guidance and continuous assistance. Wish you a great life ahead, stay in touch :)...RAKHI SHARMA

Met this guy on the 1st flight to IIM Indore and we have never looked back. The other favourite friend of mine, Chaki, PP and myself have been bonded strongly throughout these 2 years. Chaki knows how to engage people and how to rock the party. A very outgoing and smart guy with an eye for fashion and rightfully the face of CulCom. This guy is a master quizzer and intelligent beyond imagination. God knows how he managed those grades while balancing his ‘Other activities’. Inspite of how he looks, he is amazingly health conscious and his concern for his belly keeps bringing him back to the gym. Dude you have been an inspiration for me and it was a priviledge to have you as my wing neighbour.... Rajarshi Biswas sHenajit this is how you want people to call you...as per Bengali pronunciation. Sena the hardcore bong accent person, the quizmaster, the operations guy and most importantly my classroom neighbour in the first year. Bhai we cracked so many jokes on profs...advantage of being backbenchers...:) ...sometimes we were caught and scolded by profs but it was fun. Sena you are simply awesome in operations stuff be it AHVAN ops or record number of DJ parties as a culcom secy. I seriously want to know how do you manage so many things ? Your commitment for any work is the thing any person notices in you. Our Chanakya participation is an example for it. I would really miss the fun that we had at Planet I. Bhulna matt bhai...stay in touch and best wishes for the new career......Cheers !!!... ANIKET YEVALKAR I know Chaki (as we fondly call him) from our CulCom preprocess in PGP1. We were put in the same group for the group task. However, we became friends only after I became a part of CulCom senior team and the friendship has just grown stronger since then. He was a great secy, got to learn a lot from him. He is a very calm and a jolly person, One can always approach him in times of need. He is very hard-working and gives his 100% to any work that he undertakes. Infact if you are in the same team (assignment or extra-curriculars) as him, you need not worry as he would do most of the work. He has really been very motivating during some of my difficult times. It has been great knowing you. Wishing you all the very best!! ...BHANTI PRATIKSHA DEEPAK The first time i met you for the filming assignment :P i thought you would probably turn out to be a free rider given ur lax attitude. Needless to say, you are quite adept in managing the committee work and the assignments with equal enthusiasm. A fun, easy going person and it is really hard to bog you down or the multitude ideas that you always have to offer. It has been great fun working with you and knowing you as a person. All the very best for what lies ahead. Do keep in touch :)...KEERTHI KOCHERLAKOTA

‘Bhaai’ - U would always use this as against ‘yaar’, which is a very touchy substitution. My earliest memory of u is ur blasting out at me and then apologising for that Industrial Awareness assignment - for which I was totally responsible :P I see u as a very honest and open person - good at heart. Not a tinge of ego or arrogance. Down to earth and hard working. Great talent in Photography which I am sure many others would agree :) I really wanted u to return with a bigger belly from Exchange Program so that we could once again work out together :P. Unfortunately the reverse happened and I lost out on a great Workout Buddy ! :( Wishing u a happy life ahead ! Milte Rahenge ! :) :) :) ...AYUSH AGARWAL One of the most innocent people i have met in my life. Thank you for always being there for me as an elder brother. Always advising me and encouraging me. Will miss you!! PSPhoto due rahegi :(...ALTAMASH ASLAM As fate would have it, i found another great friend through 26 hills. I still remeber vividly the day i knocked on your door to share a meal:-). You are one of the most hardworking and smart person I know. Also, you do not even have a tinge of arrogance. A truly gifted photographer! I’ll never forget your most frequently used expression. Hope this friendship continues forever:-)...MEGHWANT SINGH THAKUR Shadab is really one of the most calm people I have ever met. A great friend and a really awesome photographer, Shadab’s clicked pics of mine really made my time in Europe memorable. I will never forget the awesome time we had in Europe and in IIMI together especially our Buffet parties and the parties which we had in MG’s room ;). With the demeanour which you have, I am quite sure that there are great things in store for you in future. Wishing you all the best. Keep in Touch....PRADUMN KUMAR MISHRA In the same group as me during Term I & here we are diametriacally opposite, me overly excited and always in tension & Shadab totally calm. His trademark sentences Kaisa hai dost/Bhai sab theek hai na, makes you think how civizilized he is:p. A very relaxed person [Though I still remember his outburst during IA assignment :p]. An excellent photographer but would always tell me “thoda sajke aa fir photo khichoonga” & that day has yet not come :d. Glad to have a friend like you, a nice guy, Wishing you all the very best for future :-)...PANKAJ DHINGRA Shadab is one of the most soft spoken and easy going people I have met till date. I know him mostly through Meghwant, but his million dollar smile and lively nature makes him friendly and easy to get along with. Some of his photographs are mind boggling, more so for the thought behind them than mere dynamics of the aperture. Now that we are in the same organization, I look forward to have many more interactions with you and get to know you better. Have fun :)...ISHAN BOSE

Taaal . . named by me as he used to replace every abusive word with “Taal teri/Taal X/Taal Y”.. . Although this was not the case by the time I’m writing this.. I guess I and Mota *(Manish Tuljapurkar) have spoiled this kid a lot .. . Taal and Mota were my very first friends on the campus and have had a great time with them .. Very good natured and pure at heart. Never thinks of bad for anyone.. . I and Mota tried to hookup him with a gal or two but he would never fall in our trap.. very committed to his GF( who is now his wife) .. Respect for Taal got many folds when I got the news of his marriage and that was a hell of a story man.. Salute to you for your bravey Taal .. Keep enjoying Taal and best of luck for future.. Stay in touch,, ,...ASHWANI KANSAL Very simple and helpful (for all :P) He is very good friend. I feel many good thing about him. Best of luck for your future career Aakash !!! ...Vinod Kumar you really are good person...and friend too.. i always felt nice after talking to you...... saale tu baad khud hi itna uljh gya ki tujhe smjhna mushkil ho gya...still you are my friend... all the best .. bhai.....enjoy life...VISHAL LAXMAN BANSOD Mere pyaare bhai....saara col knows ki u r my bhai :) n yet I eat sada sa food in mess and u never tasted dat food :P....I know sabse zyada leg pulling main teri n Avi ki karti hu but so sweet of u guys ki u take all dat sportingly :)....I really admire how u struggle for smallest thing in ur life with perfect smile n sense of humor....I really wish all d good luck to u...u r the PRETTY GUY and talented as well :)...VAISHALI SHARMA

Mithun Chakraborty deserves a son like Soham, saala Mimoh to nikamma hain... Nachaniya \ CP baaz \ Energetic to sabne likha hain, i would like to say something different... what i love about this guy is that he appreciates humour and takes all the jokes very supportingly, he always gives good advices (Saala age mein sabse chota hain but advice bahut achi deta hain)... and he is so full of life, I have never seen him feeling depressed, not even once (which also makes me wonder, if he is normal :P).. Loved dancing with you on DJ Nights \ in Cabs to City \ in Bus \ On Roads \ in your room (Basically jahan music bajega wahan Nachega yeh Bhai..)...Rock kar denge Rock :). ..Jaate jaate.. Ramm-pa-papamm-pamm-Ramm-pa-pa-pamm-pamm...1, 2 ka 4 .. 4.2 ka 1 (had to end with a tune..)..;) ...VARUN LAKRA This guy has enough enthusiasm for all of us combined. Just keeps going and is extremely focused. Loves to dance, study and eat good food among other things. Yet another person I met on campus rather late and I wish I’d met sooner. In the 4 terms I’ve known Soham, I’ve had a blast in his company, be it our frequent trips to Classic/RD or our running sessions. He drives himself hard and takes you along for the ride. Keep the enthu up man and I’m sure my Mumbai life will be awesome in your company. Cheers....ADITYA BALARAMAN Nothingâ??s changed much since the first time I met you at TI mall, food court! From the first line I heard from you itself, I knew that this guy had a unique way of leaving an impression on others- by being way too straightforward , witty and likeable at the same time! Never imagined that we would end up being the best of friends. These two years wouldâ??ve never been the same without you. :’) You’ve been a constant source of energy around me and have managed to rub it off on me as well..I’ve learnt way too much from you- from learning to appreciate the education available here and performing better at Indore..to being committed & more systematic to any form of work that came my way..from being more cheerful and speaking to anyone & everyone :P that came my way to being serious when work demands me to be so.. from dancing to every ‘ghhati’ Bollywood song to learning & appreciating their lyrics.. I have never seen anyone who can balance his work & life as brilliantly and effortlessly as you can..your thoughts are unique and fearless..your way of seeing life is magnanimous...you’ve been a balancing factor to all my madness as well... Thank you for being there for me throughout..through my irritation, excitement, problems & happiness..you’ve been around for every emotion that I have been through on this campus! :’).... My life-changing experience at Indore has been you...:) ...NIYATI JHUNJHUNWALA

You have been a close friend of mine since we met. I remember each and every moments of our IIM Indore life...be it Summer Placements philosophical discussions at MDC, a short argument during RIP, Our participation in various competitions, late night studies or the HOP trip. It has been a good journey with you and I would always cherish these moments....keep in touch !!!...ANIKET YEVALKAR Shaunak....the perennially calm soul with the ever-smiling face. A highly disciplined guy and a workhorse in assignments, you were almost solely responsible behind our group scraping through in term 2. Even before coming here, he became a great friend of mine courtesy the similar professional background and involvement in social activities. Will never forget the Bakra nights and especially the presentation we prepared at the end. One of the best persons I met over here, hope you stay this way throughout your life. Wishing you a successful life, personal as well as professional. :)...MAINAK BHOWMIK Mr. Dependable... You’ve always been that guy I would definitely want in my assignment group :D And the ever-smiling face, nothing would ever faze you, thats Something you should teach me!

Cheers..! ...AMBATI AVINASH Arrey ! Fitness Buddy !! Our disciplined workout in the last term is going to be one of my best memories at IIM I.

Shelly darling!! First of all, I would thank hostel office for keeping us together for 2 years :D We had a great time together..gossiping all the time and luckily we were together during internship also. Remember cow, you and me doing MOS assignments..we used to tease her and laugh all the time :) Saali mujhe akela chhodkar exchange chali gyi thi...missed you a lot during that time..anyway you got me really good gifts..so I’m not angry with you anymore :P Aur tu hamesha maarne peetne ki baat kyun karti rehti hai??? huhh?? Jokes Apart, I know you have a wadda dil..you are the best example of a true friend..you were always there to help me out and support me like a sister..I would cherish all the moments we have spent together... Wishing a very happy life ahead!! Take care sweetheart !! Will miss u lot :( Stay in touch!!...KIRTI SONI Shelly baby :P I still remember how I used to come in the mornings to ask if we had lab that day. After graduating little did I know that we would cross paths again and I can’t thank my stars enough that I got to know such a wonderful person. From bakra group to farewell you have always stood by my side and I have never seen anyone so caring and responsible. There are so many memories but I will never forget the time spent during RIP and I missed you so much during HOP.It is always great to have a friend who shares the same love for books and food with whom I can talk about books read (although many a times we did have different takes on the books we have read but I still loved discussing them with you) and eat like junglees guilt free. Few people have I ever seen who just try to see just the best in others. very straightforward(never hesitate to call a spade a spade) and really have a talent for making simple yet profound statements on situations and extremely determined at times... dont worry swthrt I wont be an alsi like you...will keep in touch :P Be the charming and dynamic person that you are, have a great future ahead Love always :)...POONAM VERMA Shelly! :) One of my favorite people on this campus to spend time with. Became friends early and a friendship which has come leaps and bounds in the past 2 years. Talks sense all the time, ALL THE TIME. Loves watching movies, trust me she has seen *all* the movies produced over the past 30 years (I am not kidding), has such varied interests, be it mythology or history or geo-politics. Immensely informed and knowledgeable. Absolutely love reading books and loves food more (like me, haha). Trust me, whenever me and Prakarsh go out, the first thing either of us do is ‘oye, Shelly se ek baar pooch le’ and the past few months have been amazing - be it movie visits or randomly going to eat out. Your straightforwardness is something I am so fond of, the news of you cracking ‘Taxi for Sure’ made all of us so so happy and Bangalore tha toh upar se upar khushi, haha! And remember, the clean slate we decided on a week back - its a deal - two sided, none of that goes out. Haha. Okay? :) It may sound incredibly cliched but you are bound to go places. A very, very bright future lies ahead of you and in a few years all of us will see that. It’s been a pleasure knowing you.All the best and goes without saying be in touch :) ...VIKALP KUMAR NIGAM

Lasting impressions about college :

At once you would be confused whether her name is Shobhna or Shruti or Shobhna Shruti. Shobhna is one of the most chilled out persons I have met. She is the kind of person you can call any time to share. She is one of the few who abide by “A friend in need is a friend indeed”. ...LOKESH CHANDRA AGRAWAL Got to know u quite late during my stay on campus, but surely u were one of the most level-headed and reasonable persons that I came across on campus. Very sincere wen it came to assignments - still remember ur dedication wile doing the AMR project, even handling RMS on ur own.. also had lotsa fun on ur bday ;) n even ur bday treat :) :) Ur modesty, simplicity n friendly nature meant dat we could accommodate u even widin our highly exclusive hangover group :P wish we all wudve got acquainted earlier.. then wudv njoyed more.. but as they say better late dan never ;) hope u have a rocking future ahead :)...KRIT DOSHI Are itni chhoti jagah mein itne bade logon ke vishay mein kyaa hi bataayein? :-P Still trying. A sensible, sincere, gentle, sharp and hard-working person, be it the skits at HOP or MR/AMR assignments, Shobhna is one bright star among the multitude. And how can I forget her ‘life-saving’ drugs at the fag end of RIP? During our trips, Shobhna would be the first one to understand my insane comments at times when I tried to be comical. So thanks to her brain for saving many of my comments from going unapproved. And kudos to her indomitable spirit during the HOP when she would try out every physical activity, eright from bouldering to rock-climbing that few other females would venture into. And talking about assignments, if not for her insights, my streak of ‘C’ grades in marketing would still be unbroken. And thus she maintains the heritage of ‘bade log’ saving the day for ‘chote log’ like me. I have explained this to her several times, ab to 2 saal khatam bhi ho gaye, ab maan hi jaao. ;-)...DEBAYAN BISWAS We met a lil too late during our stay at Planet-I but we have all gotten pretty close since ... Initially i thought I wudnt have much to discuss with u but as v got closer, I realised we have quiet a few interests in common (like pulling mahajans leg for instance :-P) ... i mean it wen i say this - ur one of the most nakre-less girls I’ve ever seen :-P ... highly mature and understanding, intelligent and extremely soft spoken, u could easily stand out in a crowd ... but u choose to remain modest and down to earth ... the numerous dine outs that we had (Cafe Terazza, Mud Oven, Golden Gate) ... had awesome fun helping in organizing that treasure hunt on ur bday :-) ... managed to have a few classes in common with u (inspite of being in different sections) since u magically appeared in some extra TOC classes and it was fun :-) ... since it was u who introduced mahajan to hill climb racing (who in turn influenced me) i owe u one for that game :-P ... times have flown past and I wish v cud all have spent some more time together ... but its alrite, im sure this friendship is for life :-) ... May u have the most wonderful life ahead ... Cheers Shobhna !!...SWAROOP S SHENOI

The way you make the conversations hilarious is commendable. Naughty in talks. Very helpful person. Sometimes worries about the expectations of others on him. But we are sure that the zeal in you will make you do great everywhere you go and exceed all expectations. We always cherish the conversations we had with you. Have a great life and Keep in touch !!...SURESH MALLULA Shravaannnnn!!! What an evergreen Secy you have been! Had the dinner at Square not happened, I would never had known that you had such a fun side to you as well. It was incredible working with you for StepCom. There are miles to go before we can match your steps. All the best! Go places! ...ADITYA GHOSH Potnuru or Stepcom is what I call him. He is a warm person who is always smiling. Infact he has got the brightest of smiles on campus. He is good at impromptu speaking. I got to know him in term 1 when we were put in the same assignment group. He is a very good human being. How much ever you pull his leg, he never gets irritated and takes everything smilingly. Always keep smiling. It was great knowing you.

Been wondering what happened there. Prior to that though, he used to leave no opportunity to insult/irritate/annoy me. However, other things seem to remain the same: his PJs (that Whatsapp wallah, god), his interest and proficiency in marketing. Although his CP was sometimes *very* controversial (refer AEW workshop in 3 term), his inputs usually had substance. Even behind the abrasive exterior, deep down (like really, really deep, mariana trench level deep) there was a nice guy, who has now broken the shell and come out. Pls stay like this ( your post exchange avatar).

Faad hai tu! I really don’t have a track now how many times you have said these words..I hope you mean it :P But on a very serious note.. Faad to tu hai and I mean it.. I have never seen a genius like you.. A more dedicated person than you who will ensure to make everything perfect.. be it slides formatting or section party arrangements or class notes :P You are the most brilliant guy I have ever met on campus who plays all day but still manages to top in every exam.. though I agree my company in 5th term did pull your grades down :P But, I really made an awesome friend knowing you more..you know how poor my memory is and thus I really don’t remember how we became such great friends.. But whenever I will think of you.. I will always remember our internship time chats, you listening to my dard bhari kahaniya, then giving gyaan, making me feel better, moving on to classroom chats, thousands of bulls and cows we played, limited but most fun city hangouts, FPM wali baatien, we share so much in common (sports, school crush, SAINI SAINI), we can talk and talk and talk..Okay yes yo do most of the talking but I have improved :P I know you will achieve great heights one day and make everyone proud.. Good luck and stay sweet to me the way you are! I like being your priority :P Thanks!... SONAKSHI SAINI For a person of your calibre, one should have amazing levels of arrogance and headweight. But there is Shubham Saini, a low-profiled creature completely grounded and a thorough professional. Dude, you are amongst the few people I have great respect for being a genius. Had it not been true, then how could someone who hardly touches books and spirals, hardly stay attentive in class and completely ignores CP be a topper!?? I like the way you present yourself to people. When I first met you, I felt that you are one among the other run on the mill last bencher who chatters most of the time and adds zero value to classroom discussions. Times changed and so did my perception on you. You bowled a googly!! From being a guy I barely thought I should notice to be a person whom I wished to emulate in the academic front, deserves a special mention. I have loved the interactions I had with you last 2 years. I think I interacted with you and Tanmay the most during our class than anybody else. Thanks for making my time enjoyable during classes and ATB man. You are not a person who is going to settle for anything lesser. Think big do big. You will rock always. Two things da, I am still the best booster Sec-C has got and I bet you in HRMS :P...RAHUL S Shubham- I dont think i should be raving about your intelligence, interest in sports or your love for your friends. I really was dreading the SAPM viva coz I though I’ll screw up your marks :P It was great to have learnt so much from you during assigments- the dedication, sincerity and commitment you put drove the rest of us, I guess. Am sure I’ll see you soaring high in your corporate career too soon.. Wish you the best and stay in touch...Sneha Tyagi

Siddharth Jain, or Sid as he’s known by the hoi-polloi at IIM Indore, is actually a time-traveler from a dystopian future whose only motive in the present is to whine that the world isn’t dystopic enough. I mean seriously, if this guy were to re-write any of Zack Snyder’s scripts, his only contribution would be to make them more macabre! That’s why I think he has potential as a porn parody writer. Don’t bring it up with him though..he’d say, “Dis-topic-is not up for discussion!” XD Okay, bad puns aside, I think Sid is one of the most genuine people around with a penchant for indulging in the most eccentric of pastimes - like mining bitcoins or spending the entire day on Quora answering LOTR questions. But get him drunk and he’ll come up with a slew of golden nuggets about how he has attained complete control over Jr. Jain (you don’t want to know). Having a conversation with him is like being transported to a land of bawdy jokes and conspiracy theories. Not having a conversation with him will get him bored enough to pull out his Ipad and start playing Plants vs Zombies. And since most of this takes place in class where we juggle the drudgery of TOC with the bliss of apathy, it is surprising how he can answer questions convincingly off-the-cuff when the professor has the misfortune of singling him out during a cold call. To be honest, I really don’t know how Sid will end up in the future. He is just as likely to be a Marxist writer as he is of being an ex-Roadie contestant. But however he ends up, he’s going to accomplish some wonderful things along the way. Best of luck bro! Cheers....ANOORAG BISWAS Sid! Immensely talented guy. Munich was fun! :) Remember the day when you got a PPI and we sat in a bar in Wadala! :) Clearly beats anyone with the greatest IQ at IIM Indore. Amazing circumstances you got placed (you were cursing the placom and full credits to Paul for teaching you valuation in 30 mins)...but then you converted that single call..only people like you can achieve such feats of not taking a single elective in Finance and still get an investment banking job!!! You can never see failure in your life because of how you adjust to situations and act accordingly (which very few people can do) :) I am sure you will reach greater heights in corporate world. cheers to that! :)...RAHUL YADAV Sid, you are one person I wish I had spent more time with on campus. An absolute genius( GMAT 760, HUL, GS and what not achievements), you were always too good for a place like IIM Indore( no wonder you got the best fin job on campus without a single fin elective and studying 30 minutes of valuation while waiting for your interview turn). Amazingly well read( if you wanted to, you could have and still can become a quizzer hundred times better than me), you are awe inspiring in more ways than one. You will definitely be very very successful in life. For you, sky is the limit. Have fun, and do stay in touch. And yeah, you still owe me a treat ;) ;) Cheers!!...ARINDAM PAUL

Mathurrrrr <3 U are truly one of the most caring and loving friends I have ever made... and among those who will always remain close to my heart.. FOREVER!!! :D So, my first testimonial for this yearbook goes to you CONGRATS :P I will never miss you for your sad jokes, stupid laugh, worthy gossips, serious advice, etc etc because I know TU MERA PEECHA KABHI NAHI CHODEGA :P Aur mai chodne bhi nahi dungi..Long Live our friendship!! Yo Mathur So fat, Yo Mathur so Naughty! :P...SONAKSHI SAINI Thanks a lot for your support and guidance right from my resume iteration to summers. You have always motivated me to achieve great things. Thanks for being such an awesome senior !...AKHIL KRISHNAN SHOBA Mathur- You are one of the most helpful guys I know. If you consider someone as your friend, you will go to any extent to help that guy. You are there when someone needs you the most and that is why you have always been a true friend. You work hard, you party even harder and yet you manage to do so many things, It is just amazing to see the amount of things which you and with so much efficiency. Be it Assignments, Utsaha, competitions, Placecom Work or anything, you always end up being the most hardworking person in that group. This amount of efficient multi tasking is something that I hope to learn from you. You are that perfect mix of childishness and maturity which is so hard to find. Stay always like that. Cheers!...TANMAY LALIT TAPASE Mathur ( chicki-tarian ) I also regret tht we met so late but then again, 2 yrs is nothing in comparison to the awesome times we r gonna hv ahead in future including GOA â?º You are one of my closest friend and among very few who knows everything about me. I cn never forgt those crazy discussion we always have. That night mess, placom life discussions, discussion about relationship and its after-effects, I found a friendship that I am gonna cherished for ever. When I first met you, you came across as a happy-go-lucky kid but then your sense of maturity struck me during our bakar sessions. You â??one-womanman stand still amuses meâ?? ( Oh, those awesome fb stalking sessions :D) Your work commitment and passion for marketing stands above all. I have never seen such an enthusiastic placommer. I know, the time will soon come when you will make an awesome position for yourself in the corporate world. Cheers to life!! ...MAYANK JAIN

You are one of my closest friends on campus. What I like the most about you is how I can always be myself around you. I can say whatever I want to you without thinking and this is something I can do with very few people. I love pulling your leg :P and you have always been a good sport :) Whenever I am bored or maybe stressed about something, I can always count on you to be there. You have always been a trustworthy and loyal friend and I can easily share just about anything with you. Singhu you rock ! :) ...BHOOMI DEEPAK THAR The journey of you being Singhal Saab in RIP to Singhu post HOP has been a hell of a ride. You are the most forgetful person I have ever seen and can be safely called Ghajini of the pack. The sheer innocence on your face when you are unable to recall something and try to disregard it with confidence is something that cracks me up like anything. Btw, you forgot (nothing new though :P)to mention in my testi about playing Ruzzle during IMC on my phone. Having made fun of you, I can peacefully write good things about you now. :D You are one person on campus, who has called me by the maximum number of names like micro-controller, socialite, Swatty and the best of the lot â?? Aadhi placomer. :P I am in awe of your managerial skills in terms of work delegation, courtesy our dysfunctional MACR group. Also, you are an amazing sport who takes all my jokes in good spirit and I love that about you. I am sure you will keep on enticing people with your charm wherever you go and your charm along with your determination will take you places. Lastly, let me assure you that I am going to haunt you even after you kill me. After all Singhu, â??Tu hi toh mera dost hainâ??. ï??...SWATI VERMA Singhal meri jaan, you are one person I’ll always regret why I met so late in college. My partner in roll no and placement office, you are one of the most balanced person on campus. Your 2 sided theories about life and people (sometimes love also :P) are always worth listening. We’ve had some great times being in the placom, our epic late night discussions and the love for faculty mess ki chai :P There have been times when your advises have been really helpful for me. Hope to be in touch and take forward bakchodi 1.0 to the next level ;) All the best for your career and more namesake girls that you find in future :P And yes vo card maine hi likha tha :P \m/...SIDDHARTH MATHUR This has been the toughest testimonial to write. Time flies too quickly. It seems like yesterday when we sat in the office trying to figure out what we wanted to do in life. And it’s been nearly four years since we first met! You’re someone I can always turn to when in trouble and completely rely on... that’s probably something that I can’t say about anyone else. We’ve done some good work as a team - Be it selling a few phones back at AGC or Interrobang and Utsaha here at Indore. I wish to see you achieve even greater heights in life! You’ve become a true sale-u and I know you’ll do wonders wherever you go. I’m not ready to bid adieu yet. Always your well wisher......ANKITA SATIJA

Stop pulling my leg (Not to be mentioned :P)..I will send you a good pic soon :P...SONAKSHI SAINI One of the most carefree guys here. Punjabi to the core! Comes across as an approachable open minded guy who knows how to enjoy life to the fullest. A perfect fit for Culcomm! Was fun interacting with you. Have fun and stay blessed :)...ISHAN BOSE Oye paaji aka VICKY DONOR. Without you my MBA would’ve been incomplete because you are the only one who understands the “OTHER SIDE” of my statements ;) You’ve been a great support all this while and the one with whom I’ve had the most bakchod times. My chicken buddy and also the one who I know will always be there by my side (metaphorically not literally). All the best for your career and also your love life ;)...SIDDHARTH MATHUR A full on punjabi munda. One of the very first persons i met in campus. I must say you have helped me a lot. We shared some great moments during RIP and numerous trips to cities. It was nice meeting you. We will always remain best of friends.

I was probably unlucky I didn’t know you well in I year but we made for it in the 2nd year itself :) Zabardast banda hai bhai tu. You have helped me in worst of my times :) Unconsciously I have also used that powerful shoulder ;) Starting from EA cricket to rummy to Jagjit Singh’s gazals to random quizzes and exams we had our own fun \m/ PJs bht sahi maar leta hai, main bi seekh gya tere se :P Your energetic and dynamic personality creates an aura of its own. “Cul ka launda” has got his own female fan following ;) Bhai you are an asset for me. Always be in touch :) Going to miss you a lot :) All the best bhai for the future :) ...MOHAMMAD AMIR

Simpson is an extremely genuine, soft and nice person...Even when he has to be serious and has to bear this grumpy PlaComm look, you can tell that it is not coming naturally to him....very intelligent and logical, I am very happy that he is going to a company he really deserved to get into. Wish you all the success in life, buddy :) (And yes, this thing we do me calling you Simpu and you calling me back Mr. Roy - I hope we remember this when we accidently bump into each other some 15 years down the road :D)...RUDRASHIS ROY The first guy I met on campus! From the same city, what are the odds of that! You were always too busy... What with committee work and all :P You’re like a machine when it comes to getting work done. Near military levels of discipline, you were the only other guy who would be up around 6- 7 AM back in first year! The difference of course being that you would have slept only about 3 hrs ago :P Hehehe anyways, here’s to a fruitful career and happy years to come machi! Cheers and stay in touch :)...Avinash Chidambar Hey Simpson, interacted with you for the group assignments in term 4 and HOP as well. It was great that despite being in Placomm you would do your bit for the assignments. HOP revealed a different aspect about you ( “affluent Mumbai lover” :P). Wish you the best! ...SHREYA TANDON Simpoo. Yep, right to next to you. The first classes on campus and I had a sense of satisfaction that I had come to the right place where students have an amazing work ethic. Days passed, people changed, but if there is something that has stayed consistent is your work ethic. I could see the difficulty you had to face to be grumpy in situations that demanded for it. Hard work pays off and it certainly has. Wishing you great success! ...Rishabh Trivedi Our first conversation was in Mess 2 - we had known each other from JPC pre process (Phew !). Initially u gave me an impression of being a little serious types. But I soon realized that u were pretty chilled out person...very frank and honest. It was great to do HOP together..though the two of us were the most bimaru person in the group :P I wish u all the very best for ur future. Keep touch ... call me whenever in common city :) :) :)...AYUSH AGARWAL A synonym for honesty and hard-work. With the tough resonsibilities you have handled at campus, I doubt whether I myself could remain so honest had I been in your place. This quality has no substitute and will really take you a long, long way. Talking about hard work, very few people would have put in so much discipline and meticulousness in their placement preparations. That hard work always pays off you have shown with your leading example. A very helpful, down-to-earth and humble immediate neighbour I had in you. Wish you all the best and keep in touch! :-)...DEBAYAN BISWAS

AM SOH KAR SAR

right... here goes. I spent a considerable part of my PGP - 2 days gaming with this guy... and as one might expect, it obviously doesn’t end there. In between the numerous night mess sessions and cocojal shots, we managed to snatch away 2 bowls of ‘maggi’ from a certain lady, coined a couple of new terms that probably doesn’t quite have any existing translations in human tongue, managed to sleep like dogs through numerous classes, have had night-long arguments on football, pai mei and the once misconceived ‘exquisite art of samurai’... HHHMMMMPH!!!! Countless hours were spent strategizing Hitman missions while the Strategy assignments lay untouched. Countless hours were spent trying to find back-stories of rpg characters while real people had their existence dismissed I could go on and the yearbook would run out of space. It was that weird with Soham on board.... DEBOPRIO DUTTA

You had been one of the sweetest girl that I have ever known in this campus . Despite being so talented , you had always remained so modest . Nice to have known you :)... DEBJANI DEY Behl- Very very few people know how she actually is! When I was in Section C I always thought of her as quite, slightly intimidated studious girl who doesn’t do CP at all even though she knows. But my opinions have changed completely since the time I got to see your ‘asli roop’ in the Placement Committee. She is talkative, gossipy, loves Bollywood, still finds to read intellectually stimulating books, and does not put make up. :P We have literally shared some of the funniest moments in office and I can never forget our innumerable discussions, gossips and pranks. You are the perfect combination of intelligence and ‘dhinchaak’! Stay always like that, don’t you ever change. Cheers!...TANMAY LALIT TAPASE You are one of the sweetest persons i have known. One thing i have always admired in you was your time management skills..right from handling the placom work to coming prepared for each and every class throughout was something that very few people around could manage. I still miss those chats we had...be it about shoes and dresses or gossips. ;) Be yourself all along and stay blessed ...KEERTHI KOCHERLAKOTA Behl (as we all fondly call her) was my neighbour in class in the 1st year. She is a typical Delhi kudi from the way she dresses or the way she talks. She is extremely sincere and hard working. We spent some great time together - be it in class or RIP or even on our whatsapp group. Most of the times she is quiet, but gets really talkative at times. It was great knowing you. Wishing you all the best for all your future endeavours!...BHANTI PRATIKSHA DEEPAK Beautiful, sweet, cheerful, adorable...how can someone not come about to like you :) My roomie in Nitie, my company on night walks and 5-star rendezvouses..you made all the moments spent together memorable..Dearest Delhi Behlie..keep smiling..love you :)...THAKUR ANSHU MANOJ One of the best mismatches happened when one of the most serious girls in the batch became the placom PoC for one of the most carefree and lazy guys. First one is Sonakshi Behl and the next one is me. From then on started the tough time I generally give my acquaintances/ friends and it lasted for around a month - be it CV verification or doubts regarding profiles etc. Best part was that she was always available to clear the stupidest of doubts. It was great working with you in JPMC Deal - though the rest of us hardly put any effort, you continued to slog with your assigned portions. No wonder this reliable girl notched up an offer from Reliance. All the best :)...MAINAK BHOWMIK

Sonakshi- My first memory of you is at our Section party, when everyone in the class seemed to wanting to dance with you. :P We first spoke on that day and have been friends since. There are so many fond memories associated with you whether it is in college, at the many parties and night outs, at Cummins or the late night discussions we’ve had at HOP. You are someone who’s always been very nice and sweet with me, but I have more often than not behaved rudely or not talked properly, and I would like to apologize for that. You are an honest, fun-loving, slightly self-obsessed, cheerful person and I wish that you always stay like that. You’ll always be a very close friend for me. Mumbai me jaa ke bhul mat jaana; main jab bhi Mumbai me rahunga, we’ll party hard! Take care. Cheers!... TANMAY LALIT TAPASE Joless...despite being one of the most caring and best friends on campus, you are also by far the most craziest one I have. So you too get the privilege of getting my first testimonial. :P I have enjoyed every moment that I’ve spent with you over the past few months...RIP (The Toothbrush incident :P), HOP, bakar in night mess, your nagging about almost every thing in life :P. Anyhow, you have been one person I can call anytime to share just about anything - personal or professional. You have been a rockstar for me :D Aur tera peechha to main nahi choodunga :P Wish you all the very best for your life and career \m/...SIDDHARTH MATHUR Joluuuuuuu... ab tere liye kya bolu.. no words.. always be happy.. you have perfect balance of intelligence, hardwork and fun.. and nurture karna ise .. way to go.. I will always remember your sweet si smile on mathur k double meaning jokes and tera blank face.. “Mjhe koi kuch batata kyu nahi”.. Mumbai mein sath e hain.. shakal dikhate rahio kamini... SIDHANT SACHDEVA Sonakshi! Ab tere baare mein kya likhoon..you know everything about you and it’s the other way round too(hopefully). You are my best friend and I don’t know anyone who is as sweet, caring and irritating as you are :p First impression toh you know, I found you an arrogant, self obsessed person but as I spent more time with you, I realized that an MBA partcipant can also be so stupid and idiotic :p Improve on your geographical knowledge, ab toh bahar bhi ghoomna hai :p I cannot even imagine life at IIM-I without you. I have so many memories with you-late night walks, watching stupid movies, good movies, JAM, night mess, trying out new eating places(obviously aur kahin toh jaate nahi hai) and I can go on and on. Thanks for tolerating me as well as Arsenal and FIFA, I don’t think anyone else can deal with all my tantrums and apologies for misbehaving so manytimes but ye sab toh chalta rehta hai :p The Arsenal mug is my favorite birthday gift along wih the other 20 :D Bas I am getting senti now (sob sob) so I will sign off wishing you good luck and we shall explore more eating places in a new city now.

You are one of the sweetest people I know in campus and a very dear and adorable friend. I think maybe its coz you are so tiny, I feel that I speak to my lil sister when I speak to you :D But I cant excuse the fact that u try to help me make decisions but you end up making really bad choices on my behalf :D. One regret I have is I did not interact much with you in the first year but I am pretty sure that wont be the case from now on. I wish you all the best and hope you stay lucky unlike how you finally ran out of luck during our poker games :)... Deepak Talluri I remember we met during the Summer Internship process and after that the 5 of us became regular for dinnerâ?¦ You were the only person in the group apart from me who used to laugh a lot and that helped my caseâ?¦. Itna tension nahi leteâ?¦ Smart you are and therefore you will always get the best, maybe delayed, but the bestâ?¦ Keep in touch and wishing you all the success in lifeâ?¦ :)...PRAKHAR PORWAL Hasti khelti muskurati uchhalne koodne (touch wood) waali ye ladki â?º. Get excited in small things and ever ready to be with friends. Although we met one term late after coming to college but within a couple of days we were like one group. Going to mess for lunch, dinner followed by walks, talking n talking n talking in my room, sarabhai, patal lok par baithna etc etc were the days I will remember. But behind this talkative and highly charged up face, there is a sincere and sharmeeli ladki. When the matter comes on her to confess anything, she just goes red. Many things she used to accept very late after much probing :D. Although we were never able to go out on any trip together like RIP, HOP but I think we had our enough compensatory share here on campus itself. Stay in touch and wish you all the best for your future. â?º...PRAKHAR KATIYAR My first testimonial of the season and it goes to you:-P. I canâ??t tell you how much mine opinion about you has changed over past fifteen months. At first, you appeared to be this unbelievably nerdy girl (which you still are:-D); but now I can safely say that you are so many more things apart from that. Be it the Himalayan trip, where you were the only one girl supporting us for our quest of convincing the group for India Hikes location or be it other million occasions where you have always had my back. Itâ??s really difficult to put everything in words, but let me tell you one thing that your contribution in getting me through the â??sometimes gloomy, sometimes yummyâ?? times of IIM Indore has been the biggest. Okay, let me come clean now. Although I have mentioned that you are nerdy, but in reality you are not. You surely study lesser than I do, still get better grades than I do. I sometimes behave like an Uncle, but you never stop behaving like a kid:-P. Chal, ab Mumbai me milte hai :-) ...GHOLAP GAURAV ANIL

An awesome cook ,a mathematics genius and a true blue bania, some of his dialogues and actions from the eurotrip will be difficult to erase from memory (for both good and bad reasons). He is a noob in terms of computer skills but an expert in terms of flirting skills. Some of our best times in the eurotrip were spent planning out the trips and also in gossip and bitching.

The quintessential Marlboro Man of IIM Indore. Everytime I picture you, its either you playing those fucking retarded games( Soliatire and Criminal Case) ,or you lighting a smoke in your own classic way. You were the one guy whom I knew before coming to IIM Indore( we are that elite bunch who kicked a random DU college( read FMS) and joined this amazing place called IIM Indore. As much as you are my bangali bhai, we are such close friends only because we are both so anti-bangali in all our characteristics( apart from our love for non veg food). Your intelligence knows no bounds( NTSE scholar, 99.6 odd in CAT). Me and manu will also remember you as the male Shakuntala Devi. No one is as much fun when drunk as you are( Manu will again disagree with this statement :P). And yes, your insatiable desire for Appy Fizz at 5 AM in the morning gave IIM Indore a couple of more gossips :P. Stay the way you are, but if you wish to change one thing about yourself, please make sure that you don’t take so much tension in life. Life is to be lived once, and is not meant to be taken so seriously. And yeah, get married soon. I want to attend a proper Bengali wedding( the only thing I love about being a Bong is the food :P) I know it sounds gayish, but I will miss you( you were the central character in all my stories that made people laugh ;), be it the nara wala pyjama, or gift through COD). And I wish that even five years from now, I am present in your top 4(5).( Again not many will get this joke). Enough said... Cheers!!... ARINDAM PAUL Souvik â?? the angry young man. Souvikâ??s natural expression is so intense that you might end up asking him what you have done to offend him! :P I first met you during one of our solo dinners in term-I. You were every bit as intense then. I was actually intimidated by how sorted out you seemed. Turns out it was all bull â?? you used to mention investment banking and consulting as your core focus back then! :P As Iâ??ve gotten to know you better I think Iâ??ve realized a few things about you. You donâ??t speak much before you get comfortable with someone, after which you proceed to administer â??shortsâ?? at a miraculous rate. Your tongue gets most exercised under the influence of alcohol â?? you speak more in one drunken night than you would in an entire sober week! If it wasnâ??t for Paul I would say you are the most unclean person on campus - 10 days without a bath or a change of clothing would beat even wild boars in lack of hygiene! You eat as if every meal is your last â?? not a single freaking morsel left on your plate. And you eat so damn fast that you could finish three meals by the time I finish my salad! You look at courses not for their grades, but for what you learn out of them (at least the marketing subjects) â?? appreciate that. You will do anything for your friends and loved ones. You spent an entire hour explaining this to me and a few other fortunate ones one evening in Trance. That last bit really is the best thing about him. He may not be around every time, we get hang out together but heâ??s one true friend. Thrilled to know I was in your â??top fourâ?? (or was it five? :P) Make sure you smile a little more on the job! Wish you all the success you want in life! Stay in touch.. :)...ADHIT S. SHETTY

Balmoori, as we fondly call him (There are other names as well. However, I am refraining myself from writing those), is an extremely hard-working guy. He is one of the most sociable guys on campus. He has great contacts and is really talented at getting things done. He is really talented in C&D work. He loves working for CulCom. Balmoori is an innovative person as well - he comes up with really wacky ideas at times. The only thing I would like you to change about yourself would be to stop taking up tooooo much work and responsibilities on your shoulder. It was great knowing you. Wishing you all the best for all your future endeavours....BHANTI PRATIKSHA DEEPAK One of the very few genuine people on campus, Balmoori is a very hard-working and creative person. The most important quality in him is his indomitable spirit and sharing responsibilities. But too much of that is bad, my friend, in this selfish world today. So be a little cautious and maintain your joyous nature. Wish you all the best!...DEBAYAN BISWAS Srikanth Balmoori! Met this chap on my very first day at IIMI as I recognized him to be the guy from my undergrad college, hence my first friend at IIMI. I must say that I have never seen a guy more genuine, more understanding, more hardworking than this fellow. Always the one to think from his heart rather than his head, he is always happy to help people no matter who they are. Perhaps thatâ??s the reason why heâ??s one of the most loved and recognized faces of IIM Indore. The guy never shies away from work or responsibilities or rather taken on too much of it :D but he never, never ever under delivers! Being the Adobe Photoshop and After-Effects god that he is, official Culcom videos would totally lose their sheen if not for this guyâ??s creative and beautiful skill. I have always admired his superb ability to strike up a casual conversation with almost anyone. There have been many a times when this guy has saved my skin and brightened up my day. It was a privilege to have known you dear friend! But I hope this is just the beginning of a very very long friendship! Have the best of the times ahead.. Iâ??ll make sure we keep in touch. God bless !! ...JOGA PREETAM Words that describe him- perfection, Genuine, exuberant, hard-working, warm, foolish (!) Had great help from him regarding many C&D works, he shares my passion for perfection in all artistic endeavors. he will do anything for you if you only ask. but you will have to be his masseur for this. ( I will get you for this!) Likes to be with people and discuss the latest gossip. Has a knack for frustrating people at times. His brain has a special ability to hyperleap to a totally different topic in a discussion. he is still confused about his relationship with some person :P One piece of advice- Be more mature, oh Balma!...VAMSI KRISHNA BETHAPUDY

L Fatso...the most studious person at planet I. Our first acquaintance was in 4th term for that audit MR course. When we were supposed to work on project, initially you did not reply to mails....I thought you are one more free rider in my group. But later on it proved to be wrong...you are intelligent person but somewhat shy to initiate conversation. I guess you are only the person who updated daily count of number of days remaining to get out of this institute......too much of frustration on this institute?....:P But finally you have got what you always wanted....Chennai... Srini all these things apart, I have actually got a good friend in tough times...you helped me a lot for resume preparation. I still remember those career-life discussions we used to have. Your eco/fin knowledge is commendable... even though you deny it. I had a good company working with you for various things...we had some minor arguments and you were upset with me for not sharing DARK CHOCOLATE...it was actually fun...:P....Your interests in other arts and music is again something different that I have seen...and I would definitely take some qualities from you. Wish you all the best for the life ahead...Cheers!! Forgot to mention your peculiar style of sayingHmmm hmmm ...ANIKET YEVALKAR Srinivaas, you are intelligent and you know it :) you were the best inhouse critic we could have had and your frank, honest opinions really helped improve whatever little we did as part of currenci back in our 1st year :) I had a nice time working with you and your exceptional talent will take you places in your career.

One of my wing neighbours, Subhram dada is a very friendly guy who is always ready to help you out. He is a ghissu as well and is rarely seen outside the nerdy confines of his room. He has an understated sense of humour and he manages to laugh away by pathetic attempts at speking bangla. Have worked on projects and assignments with him and he has come across as an extremely genuine, dedicated and serious person.Awesome at making ppts yet he always stays humble. Wish you best of luck for your future with ABP dada!... MRIGANK GUTGUTIA One of my closest friends on campus....Subhram is one of the most talented people I have met. The clarity of thought process he possesses and his ability to articulate it nicely will stand him in good stead in future. He is extremely creative - some insane ppts this guy can churn out. Subhram is the ‘Bhalo chele’ every Bong parent would like to have and in his case, also the ‘Bhalo jamai’ every in-law would like to have :P He is a great friend and has always been there for me...We are like completely opposite in our interests, he being a hardcore Bong and I, being a Bong, having been influenced a lot by non-Bengali culture from the kinda movies we like to watch to even the kind of girls we find attractive :P But it is these opposite inclinations, I think that have given us lot many fun moments together..... He has been a very positive influence by me and I hope, I have been able to exert some amount of negative influence on him....mera saath rehke thoda toh bigda hai ladka :D (He is this extremely goodie types, thoda bigadna is justified)....Subhram is one of the very few people in front of whom I can totally be myself.....He has always got the best and he complete deserves every bit of it - an internship at Yahoo and now, a job in Kolkata at ABP... Damn, I am so jealous of you - every morning you would get to have Maach-Bhaat and Doi. I know it would be difficult to get out of this but end up 8-10 years down the line where you have always wanted to be - Google.....Wish you all the success in life, mate :)...RUDRASHIS ROY The typical Bong. I mean no Bengali here has a higher level of bong quotient than this guy :D I am sure every Bong mom would want to have an ideal and obedient son like Subhram :P Some of his CPs in first year were surely entertaining, the most amazing one being in OB I when this guy went ballistic into typical Communist mode and blasted the other party with some AC logic (forgot the lines exactly but it was hilarious) :D He also surprised everyone when he opted for student exchange, since he didnâ??t come across as one whoâ??d love exploring and traveling but that was a clear indicative that there is a fun side to him too. Also worked really hard during Durga Puja in term II, one of the key people to make it a success. Was nice interacting with you, and I wish you all the best in life :)...ISHAN BOSE Subhram, Dada would always be found studying in his room. He is someone who is very dedicated to studies and academic life and takes things seriously.All the best. Keep in touch :)...PARAG PODDAR

A silent guy with a turbulent mind. All those debates with you during VECV IVs were fun, and they broadened my perspective, or at least I would like to believe so. :) A distinguished friend, an intellectually challenging person to talk to. He always has a logically sound alternative perspective to issues at hand. Our IV presentation happened just because somehow he and Kansal did not lose hope and continued to make efforts. You will do something really great, I’m very sure. Stay in touch. ATB. God bless you.:)...Vishal Vyas

I INAY SUB ER BED D PIN BHU

My wingmate throughout the two years at IIM I. A very silent person but always greeted with the characteristic “hey swarnendu “ when we at the corridors. A very deep voice and a talented mind who was never afraid to make his point and stand out amongst the crowd. All the best for the future man... :)...SWARNENDU SEN

Sudeep - one of the J-Block Johnnies during first year of our MBA at IIM Indore. You have been a very good friend since then. Be it doubt clarifying sessions at night or our final placement studies and philosophical discussions group, you have always helped me on various fronts. I would remember you as a techii who can give advice on any problem given to you. I would always cherish the moments we spent at IIM forever...keep in touch !!!...ANIKET YEVALKAR Sudeep, One of the most hardworking guys I have ever met :-). Was amazed to see the level of energy & commitment showed by you during the Agon finals :-). Wish I could replicate atleast some of it :p and BTW did prize money get transferred to your account :p :d ;). Glad to have a friend like you, Wishing you all the very best for future :-) and hope that our paths may cross again in the future...PANKAJ DHINGRA commitment and sincerity is the name of this guy..I would die to be in his assignment groups for any subject, he takes up initiative and finishes them with gr8 ease..very down to earth kind of person..his magic wit his camera can give nicest of profile pics :p..wish u all the luck in ur lyf man and stay happy as u always are :) :).. ...VENKAT DUBASH.

This bugger is addicted to TEA. Chill out, stay happy, Click amazing pictures...Wishing you all the success and happiness in life..cheers :)...RAJENDRA BABU MELLAM Sudeep.. hard working and committed person (only to his work...no girls involved :D ). To top that..gentle to the core..I don’t remember hearing you bad mouth about anyone.. I admire you for that. I got the chance to know you better during internship and more so during Agon competition. There is no way we could have made it that far into the contest without you. The night sessions on random talks , the frequent mess trips for tea and the numerous assignments..were great fun and form a major part of my 2nd year at campus. I feel great to have found a friend like you and cannot thank you enough for the constant helping hand that you’ve been. You’ll have a bright future in any field you choose.. so..Best of luck..and stay in touch you Bugger!...Chitresh Singh

Mittal is someone Iâ??m very glad I got to know. I canâ??t recall the number of times Iâ??ve knocked on his door asking for advice and heâ??s never once shot me down. This guy has been with me there through the highs and lows and I was always glad for his company. I can honestly say that Sugeet is the person from whom I learnt the most number of life lessons over these 2 years and he taught me by example.Thanks Mittal. Youâ??re an incredible person who deserves all the great things that are happening in your life. Carry on the way you are and more happiness will follow. ...ADITYA BALARAMAN I first got to know about you during our RIP. Very nice hearted person and an amazing table tennis player. Very hardworking and deserves what you have got till now! Hope you soar greater heights! cheers :)...RAHUL YADAV You are one of the first few friends I made on campus. I remember being so lost in accounts and you made it so much simpler. And thereafter, it has been wonderful to know you. You are a great friend and an amazing person. I wish you a great life ahead. PS: I will always remember you crib about the only C grade you got in Marketing 3-the only time we were in the same group in the first year....VRITIKA RAWAL Sujit Mittal.....dude hai bhai tu.... bahut dost bane hai meri life main and you are amongst the very best. I have learnt a lot from you...not only me...i believe every single guy on the campus would want some or the other quality from you.

Lasting impressions about college :

Ever smiling, cheerful and always bubbly. You’re someone who I’ve known since 1st year, but we’ve known each other well now after working in IIC. You’re a great person to work with, with your logical sense of thought, clarity in things and optimistic attitude. Ok, optimistic most of the times - I love it when we start bitching about how the management here sucks big time and how we put in so much effort to get speakers for the conclave, and yet there being no support till the last minute. :P Overall, it’s been great to know you, work with you and share food with you whenever possible. Keep pulling Vyas’ leg always! Cheers :)...Raoul Lopes After Lopes’ comment comment above, it was naturally my turn..:P GK has got the best smile perhaps in the campus as far as my memory goes, and that smile stays on, almost always..:) Fun to be with, a pain to work with, because you can’t predict when you become prey to her wit..:D I have been a victim quite a few times. From AIESEC-DS to IIC, it’s been great knowing you and working with you. Conclave was a success, and your contribution, perseverance and optimism has to be given due credit. Wish you happiness and success in career and life. Stay connected.:) ATB....Vishal Vyas Suhasini! I had a great time working with you in IIC,. I really admire your optimism, perseverance..while rest of us were wondering if conclave will happen, you wanted to start promotoions :D..of course great fun to be with, you were always my partner in crime while belting Vyas :P I have fond memories of all our marathon meetings, where we digressed more often than not but none of us really minded that :) I wish you all the success in life, Do keep in touch :)...ROHINI H Suhasini calls me weird...for good reasons though!. She was our lead singer during talent night...sings all bollywood songs (don’t ask if she understands them :P). She is always smiling true to her name...it’s good knowing you!...SAI PRASANNA KUMAR LAVU Hey, I have never told you this so it’s gonna come out all weird! You remind me of my sister for some reason :) You have a very warm personality, easy to talk to and an infectious laughter! I often felt you put more than your fair share of mokkais :P (Maybe this was the main reason you reminded me of my sister!) One thing we shared in common was being a foodie! That was reason enough for us to get along really well ;) Wish you all the best! Cheers!...Avinash Chidambar

Sukhad - The eternal BCG aspirant of our batch :P Perhaps the best mimic around, often mimics people better than themselves :D Also his small built can be misleading as he is a lethal leg spinner and those petite wrists can turn the ball big time. One of the most sincere guys in class, would funnily worry a lot about marks in the first year :D I am sure Pepsico has found the right fit in you. Keep entertaining people and going places. God bless :)... ISHAN BOSE You are the most calm and focused guy in the batch I guess.... Although we became friends only in the second year, I heard about your nerdy nature in the first trimester only :P .... I can bet on your mimicry skills which I will certainly miss in the future... You have been a very understanding and helpful friend who notices even the minute details be it related to the mood of the person or some behavioral change which others might not (still recollect all those incidents...) I will always cherish those outings, talks, walks that the 3 of us (Aanchal, u n me) had (Coffee with sukhad being the best one :P) .... The last few months of this MBA have strengthened our friendship and I hope it remains the same in future.... Wishing the best for you... Cheers! :)...VIBHUTI AGARWAL Sukhad epitomises the saying â??Big things come in small packagesâ??. Looking from a distance he would seem to be just an ordinary guy but he certainly isnâ??t ordinary at all..Starting from the intelligence level that he possess to the incredible ability to mimic/ imitate just anyone (be it harsha bhogle, sunil gavaskar, kapil dev, hrithik roshan, MSD or any IIM Iâ??s professors) to the astonishing memory (which remembers the lyrics of all the bollywood songs, the dialogues of almost all the hindi movies (especially Chak De! India, Swades, Lakshya, Andaz Apna Apna and many more), the cartoon/serialsâ?? jingles and the stats of cricket matches etc. etc.) to his superb batting skills and smooth talking abilities. Rarely, we get to see a person endowed with so many talents. But, I might forget all this, the thing which I will never forget and I will remember him for would surely be those secrets which he shared with me, those larger than life discussions which he had with me, the bond of friendship that we have shared. We shared some great memorable times with each other. Let me tell you, those drive-backs to campus on which we used to sing our lungs out were so amazing that I remember those even today quite a lot. His few lines which have always made us laugh and brought an instant smile on to our faces â?? â??woe khaana ekdum jalaa deta hai yaar <with left hand going down from neck to stomach for 2 times>â?? and â??woe lamp post (joe 2-3-5 km door hai) OFF karaao yaar, woe aankhoen mein lagtee hai while battingâ??.:P Those late night maggies (that we cooked at SR12-112), those cricket matches at SR12, the HOP, RIP, lunch/dinner outings, shopping outings will always have a special place in my heart. I know you will achieve great heights in your career with the â??aerated drinks companyâ?? (I am not supposed to name it no, especially after todayâ??s SDM lecture ;)). I wish you all the success for your future endeavours. Always be in touch!...PRAKARSH AREN

Sumanth- He stands out, he literally does whether it is with his voice, his accent or his quirks. He is by far the most loved person of our section because he is so nice. We have both partnered together in quizzes, gone in villages and on mountains together, and the thing which has always struck me about you is- how pure and good you are at heart. There is no pretense, no hiding about who you are and this is the best thing about you. Always stay like that. Cheers!...TANMAY LALIT TAPASE Sumanth! I still the remember the 1st time we met, I think the line in which we were standing moved by 10 ppl by the time you completed 2 sentences :P You probably focused on training your thinking at super speed that you ignored speech speed :P All the jokes apart I think you are an incredible friend, quizzer and a CR :) Your inquisitiveness and enthusiasm about things related to cricket, trivia, quizzing is quite remarkable :).. Be it CR, HOP or friendship, you take your responsibilities seriously and I really admire that :) We ll do some “real” sight seeing in karnataka ok :P All the best :)...ROHINI H You can talk at length about any topic under the sky! Although I donâ??t show this, but I enjoy listening to all the trivia that you keep sharing, especially with the kind of enthusiasm you show. You leave me wondering as to how can one person read and remember so much! What is admirable is that you are passionate not just about quizzing but about any task that you take up. How else could we have completed our HOP journey! Also as a person you are very kind and polite, one who can never think badly about anybody. A true gentleman. I so love pulling your leg, glad that you take it in the right spiritâ?¦sorry I cannot stop doing that :P All the best for your futureâ?¦I wish you get to visit a lot many places in India and abroad very soon :)...SONICA GUPTA Benjamin!! One of the rarest breed at Indore. I have shared lot of sweet memories with you. I have seen you from close vicinity, the way you have transformed yourself from what you were to what you are now. You are lively, jovial, energetic and curious always. I have ever adored you for your witty remarks to conversations. How can I not talk about the Quizzer in you! You know almost everything that has happened to Cricket. Any news, any scorecards, any records, Sumanth is the man. Apart from that, you did a commendable job as a CR by getting people together on multiple occasions. It couldn’t have been anybody else than you. I really appreciate the way you approach to things. Some unique things about you - Your voice, accent, beard, hairdo, dressing sense and what not. You always stood apart in the crowd. Don’t change man. Be the way you are. It was great knowing and spending time with you over the past 2 years. Waiting for the good times we would spend at namma bengaluru. Maja maadi maga....RAHUL S

Sumit is usually energetic and always ready for a outing/masti.However, once he decides on something, he would stick on to that irrespective of anything. He would give up everything else and become like sadhu-sant in order to work towards his goal... salute your dedication dude :).

Parmaniksss :p, ab kya boloon, the golu molu guy :p. The first thing you would notice about him is the evergreen smile on his face. Rarely gets provoked (tried poking him many times but failed everytime :p). I like your eating style (u know what i mean :p :p). Your way of doing assignment was amazing (To write 1 page assignment you will read 1st 3 pages of case, 2 page assignment 6 pages & so on :p). Wishing you all the very best for future :-) and hope that our paths may cross again in the future...PANKAJ DHINGRA I owe at least 4 lines in my resume to this guy; an awesome presenter and extremely hardworking when it comes to competitions. It has really been a great experience teaming up with you and hope we are leaving a commendable track record behind. On another note, he is probably one of the most sober bongs on campus - both in terms of food habits and choice of words. Now that you join your ex-employer, wish you a successful career ahead so that you don’t need to think of leaving again :p ....PRAMIT PAL A unique bong....someone who never uses slangs, carries himself decently, takes competitions and assignments so seriously (heard a lot of stories about your dedication from Pramitda). The Netaji lookalike guy has indeed some traits which can be compared to the great man himself. Being very disciplined in your life, you will surely go miles in your career. Wish you a successful life :)...MAINAK BHOWMIK Met you during HOP. Those days will always remain most memorable days and thanks to you. You helped me climb those mountainsâ?¦.and thanks for bearing my non-stop chatter :P I loved teasing you by calling u - golu and omg how you blushed :P you are very sweet and happy go-child type of a person. I seriously wonder how u look when u r sad, because one expression which I have noticed on your face is a smile :) I was lucky to be in your team - very hardworking and sincere. Will always remember how you took my interview during chatting :P Wish had known you a bit earlier. wish you luck for future. Be in touch. Take care :) ...AASHIMA SAINI He is a very creative and hardworking person. He is dame humorous yet sensitive enough to not hurt others. His Hindi is awesome and I mean it. I remember the night we were shooting for IIM C advertisement competition. After hearing his Hindi dialog delivery, I ROFL for next 30 mins. He is dame lucky too. But he is hesitant in taking risk :P â?¦.. I will advise him to take â??leap of faithâ?? sometimes. He is a very patient person too. I am sure he will prove to be great leader in future, a leader with human touch â?¦â?¦ All the best for future my friend. It was an honor working with you. I learn some important lessons from you....HITESH KUMAR CHAND

Hi Sumit, We have hardly interacted for the most part of the two years of MBA, however, your hardwork and dedication towards E-Cell and JAM could hardly be missed. The last few days, it has been great knowing your plans for JAM expansion and would really like to appreciate the amount of thought that you and Aditya have put for this venture. It has been a pleasure witnessing the transformation of JAM and to know that the ‘More’ part of the name is really growing bigger. Wish you all the best for all your endeavors and am sure with your perseverance you would definitely succeed.

“Sirji” (College habits die hard :p) it was great being in the same college all over again.. Mazaa aa gaya.. Thanks for always being there :) Helping and guiding Indore bought our friendship much closer. You too have changed a lot from the time I last met u in PEC. Seeing you lead Indore Marathon was simply amazing. You worked your ass off and I can surely say the feat you achieved and the way you handled the complete event (sometimes single handedly) was outstanding and you have sent a benchmark which others need to follow. As a sporscom secy you brought a different dimension to how sports activities are seen at this campus and I hope who ever follows you keeps it up. Thanks for always being there :) God bless you with all the happiness and success.. Cheers!!...SALIL AGGARWAL SUMIT VERMA.. the sports icon of the campus. It was awesome to come across person like you, enthused with love for sports and a passion to die for. All the memories become fresh as I pen down this for you. Angel by heart and a real punjabi,, Miss you a lot.. Good luck and stay blessed :) ...SHWETA GANDHI Sumit, one of the persons I really admire on campus... I remember the time when I had that Bakra interview and I first met you. I really appreciate your passion for sports and also you have handled everything so great during Indore Marathon. I had a very good experience being a part of it. So humble as a person, approachable and carries a good sense of humour. It was nice to know you... Wish you all the best for your future :) :) ...NIDHI SINGH Sumit.... Same name, same section. I met you on our induction day and on that very day we became very good friends. I have spent almost half of my time in campus with you. Learnt a lot from you. You find a way for whatever thing you want to do, no one can stop you. We fought a lot during our two years (once it got very serious :P) but still care for each other. Loved working with you during marathon. If I face any problem in campus, I know whom to call, its you my friend. The way you mix up with everyone around makes you different. I am sure you will achieve great heights.. ...SUMIT SWARNKAR Sportscom...my GUIDING STAR!! You are the first senior I spoke to on campus. We met during Bakra time..DJ nite. You are the nicest person I’ve ever met...a sports enthusiast, a hard worker..no, rather, a smart worker, I would say, a problem solver..(any problem/ difficult situation I face, You are always the first person to strike my mind..and I come running to you!! :) ) I’m so glad that we became so good friends and will always cherish all the times we spent together. Thank you for all the things you did for me..don’t know what i would have done without you. We will be in touch for sure...All the best for your future!!! Cheers! :) ...MUNMI LASKAR

My initial impression about you was “yeh ladki dhakkan lagti hai”. But when the grades started getting declared, I couldn’t have been proved more wrong. Your antics in our third section party thankfully stole some limelight from me. A partylover and someone who radiates energy wherever she goes...thanks for giving me some cool tips to clear FRM L1. Wishing you a successful stint at Gold(wo)man (;)) Sachs and beyond. Stay in touch :)...MAINAK BHOWMIK My earliest memory of u pertains to a discussion on travel plans to Indore in the ‘Final Converts’ thread. It was good to know u.

Initially I wondered how can someone roam around Europe all by herself!! But then that just tells how strong a girl you are. Still remember Oktoberfest when you had started posing with random people leaving the tents! :D :P (Nitin Verma would agree to this) ! And then we became good friends! One thing I would like to tell is that Suppu is a self confessed tanki :D :), can drink like a fish! :P :D hahaha .. Another quality of yours is that you do not pay attention to what people say about you and live life your own way! ..when GS happened it surprised many but you again proved your potential by getting a 4 in Investment Banking _/\_ (remember ‘in your face’ :D ) A great dancer (though I have seen you dance only after a few drinks :P ), one very good thing about you is that you do not fake things and always take everything in the right spirit! :) .. Stay as you are...Cheers!... RAHUL YADAV Mast, Bindaas and Chill ... Networking and Queen of all Gossip of college .. .

Bro. I’m not sure what to write here cause we’re going to be living together in all probability. Nevertheless, I’ll give it a try. You’re one of the first people I met on campus and I’m glad I did. We’ve come a long way from the W7 days but we still hang out like always. I think that’s awesome. You’re a rare mix of fun loving while being career minded and that’s something very few people can boast of. You also have age on your side, a fact I’m very jealous of. Despite all the money you’re going to make as an investment banker, I can totally see you quitting to travel the world and start your own thing ( and succeeding). Whatever happens from now I’m sure things between us will remain the same. From a more short term perspective, let’s rock Mumbai....ADITYA BALARAMAN Pallu is one person I really admire, but I exactly don’t know the reason. Probably there are way too many reasons to admire this guy. He’s Sheldon Cooper of our group. Mostly you’ll find him starting the conversation with, ‘Achha Chal ye bataâ??, followed by some ungodly question, which surely will stump you out of your wits. He studies like hell, parties like crazy and just enjoys life to the fullest. He has a never ending repository of stories, stories which will make you hold your stomach or else youâ??ll die laughing. Heâ??s indeed an extremely cool person and a master of all witty comments. Iâ??m sure Pallu, one day you will own world renowned investment firm named Surabathuni & Co. :)...SIDDHARTH SINGHAL Pallu! Man, I am completely envious of the fact that you can chill out more than anyone else here and then get into work mode and still do better than anyone else there also. I will never forget all those sessions of studying MAC-I and MAC-II together. I liked those subjects only because of your company. We’ve had loads of fun, especially at Kalpita. I hope that I will learn to use the controller soon enough so that we can play countless hours of FIFA in our new “bropad” in Mumbai! I’ll bring a lot of saffola museli to the parties ;) here’s to a successful career as an investment banker; I’m sure you won’t need any luck, you will make your own! See you in Mumbai! We have a much overdue Joey’s pizza and countless pending meals at Imbiss! We need to give that guy enough money so that he can make his shop bigger :D ...VIVIAN PAUL GONSALVES You are one of my most cherished friends. You have a heart of gold and I feel lucky to have you as my best friend. I can effortlessly share just about anything with you. Whether I am bored or stressed or happy about something, you are the first person I talk to. In short I love doing “bakchodi” with you :P. You have always stood by my and supported me when I have been frustrated about something or have been going through a difficult phase in life. I dont think words can express this well, but I want you to know I truly value your friendship and hope that it continues forever. The time spent together on exchange with you were some of the best days of my life and I will always cherish them. Also I think I am the only person who knows how emotional a person you are beneath that exterior :P Always stay this way :) ...BHOOMI DEEPAK THAR

I admire the way you kept your cool and held your nerve during a particularly stressful phase and came out with flying colors. Your ability to appreciate the simplicity and goodness in people is very special You are also a very stage-friendly person , a strength that will serve you well. All the best for life. Best Wishes, Sabornee...SABORNEE JANA IIM I ki fashionista! Kabhi kabhi bhadak jati hai toh suna daalti hai. Otherwise chill rehti hai. Very helpful and entertaining. The only girl I know who wore a jumpsuit in the Himalayas :D. Sound sleeper, I remember this instance in Nainital when I had to get down from my bunk because your alarm had woken up the entire dorm, and you were blissfully asleep. You enjoy having a laugh, sometimes at others’ expense, but you are basically a kind person who knows when to stop. Wish you the best!...SHREYA TANDON

You are the only “goodest” person I have ever seen...Your politeness, the patience, friendly nature and jovial attitude...all are a new learnings to me...Although being the eldest person you mingled with us so effortlessly that you had your mark on all our hearts..I hope for your great career and personal life..Cheers..!...AMBATI AVINASH Suresh, a risk taker at heart, naughty in talks, dreamer of making it big, and a magnetic personality which shines through all the challenges and tough times. Someone who would never say ‘NO’ for any help. And among the very few who understands my logic of gals I like. Someone who would be as humble as driving a Maruti as driving a Lamborghini. That’s what is so special about you. And I am sure, this quality of yours will buy you many Lamborghinis in times to come....ARPIT TANDON Suresh is among the nicest people I have met in campus. He was always approachable for any help at any time and I personally had a great time interacting with him as his neighbour. I wish him a great life ahead :)...Deepak Talluri He is the perfect example for “Looks can be deceiving” Settlement Suri alias goot, the moment I saw him I thought he is a serious guy and doesn’t like fooling around. After a few interactions I realized that I was completely wrong .He is a fun loving person, extremely innovative. He is the most kindhearted and friendly guy that I have met in this campus and I have seen him angry only once till now (in new audi when I was teasing him about PK :) ) and never saw him without his shoes. His dialogues and logics are absolutely amazing especially the “Sunnunda Mirinda” and “Buffalo test” :P. I got to know him well during RIP (Rajesh suresh saga). We had a lot of fun during RIP, HOP, dinner, meetings in my room and I will always remember them. I wish you a bright future ahead....K GOUTHAM Suresh Mallula, the Shahid Afridi of IIMIâ?¦evergreen 16â?¦ Oldest of the gang yet behaves like a child :) Information & Broadcasting ministry of IIMIâ?¦ from gossips to all the happeningsâ?¦ this guy has all the info ) Very humble and polite guy who never gets angry, which I believe is a great asset. All the best and stay in touch!! ...B.NIRUN Mallu Suresh is quite young at looks and heart despite his age :P He is always well dressed (sleeps with his shoes on!). He is a very considerate and empathizing person...It’s good knowing you!...SAI PRASANNA KUMAR LAVU Creative and Witty are the words that come to mind when i think of Suresh. A soft spoken person with a smile on his face always. He is the best fielder i have seen jumping around in quadrangle like a kid :) keep in touch and would miss your story posts in the group :) wishing you all the success and happiness in life...Cheers :)...RAJENDRA BABU MELLAM

Suzie Buoy....the man who loves his tennis, Forza Milan and lethal pace bowling - a complete sports fanatic! There’s not a single dull moment when he’s around - we are always in splits and let out our craziest laughs at his insanely good one-liners, his stories and the way he delivers them....His sense of humour is unparalleled ! Loves his food, loves his Diet Coke....you should just see his room once (dats coz and you would never want to see it again :P)....It was so great knowing you, dude....Wish you all the success in life. Stay in touch :)...RUDRASHIS ROY Suzie boy. He is one hell of a multi-faceted personality, be it his humorous-to-the-bone witty one liners, his basketball (surprisingly the diameter of his belly is directly proportional to his basketball skills), his Azzurri connection (I am sure he is going producing half Italian kids in near future), his unconditional love for Rebecca Black, his oft in-your-face blunt replies which surprisingly would never annoy you, and well I can keep going on. Klueless missed you in the first year, but probably the strategic intent behind that was to have some talented brains from our batch end up in the hall of fame. If there is one word that could possibly encompass your dynamic nature, it would be passionate. Be it quizzing or discussions to defend even the shittiest of Italian line-ups as the best in the world, I have always seen you pursue things with a gigantic level of enthusiasm and passion which thoroughly dumbfounds me. It is always fun to hang out with you and listen to your ideas. Look forward to keep in touch and discuss stuff with you once every while! Ciao (Purposely bidding adieu in Italian) ;)...ISHAN BOSE And the award for the wittiest guy on campus goes to â?? yes, you got it right, none other than Suzie. The single most important reason why I was able to survive second year was due to this guy. Thereâ??s never a dull moment when Suzieâ??s around. With his cachet of gossip and jokes, he can make time fly even in the most boring of the courses. After much taunting and persuasion, he resisted the temptation natural to men and decided to team up with me for Crucible. Good at basketball, better at tennis and best at nothing - that pretty much sums up his claims of excellence in sports. Keep that humor alive in you and there is nothing that can stop you in life! And Mumbai, you better be prepared!...PARTHA PRATIM PANDA Sushan is a quiz enthusiast, sports enthusiast and a witty guy. Yeah, he’s the size of all 3 of them combined too. If only he weren’t such an annoying Italia supporter, I’d talk to and hang out a lot more with him. A very intelligent and lazy guy, you’d always find him in the mess, in front of tv or shooting hoops. Was a lot of fun working with you in Klueless, you sort of made up for the absence of those 3 on exchange. Hope to see you down the road with an Italian wife and kids wearing Maldini and El Shaaraway jerseys. Keep in touch, adios!...KIRAN RADHAKRISHNAN

F***ing mad scientist he is .. Most famous act of him was a “Replyy-to-all mail for some assignment” at which no one could stop laughing .. I will never forget that mail .. . Famous for his cheeky and controversial one liners which he throws at you now and then and will leave you speechless .. . And when he is drunk no one can dare to debate him and his punchlines after that are something you will not want to miss.. . Also famous for his fights with Kaddu in chandani bar and his knowledge on international politics .. . He was the consultant of campus for the same . .. Stay same scientist and you will rock in life .. . Keep enjoying and stay in touch!!...ASHWANI KANSAL MASTER Fullu...will always be remembered as the mentor who brought me in to the game @ Daddu’s place. His way of expressing stuff is truly extraordinary . Those war of words with Tuppu are unforgettable . He is also known as the scientist and his love for music has also earned him the title of DJ Fullu. Wish you all the best in life :)...DIPAYAN KARMAKAR “Scientist” of the batch....had lot of intellectual discussions....one being the origin of life on earth....his latest trend being “racial bigotry”....has his own style of walking (should look at his hands) ....he & tulja are the gems of the bar (envy their friendship :P)....will miss the headbangs of DJ Fullu...Wishing you all the very best ....Keep in touch :)...HEMANTA PRAMANICK

Call it serendipity or coincidence but we both always ended up in the same section (Bakra, section C, even EPC :P, 2nd year electives) and hopfully together again in delhi in future.. so u have been one of my constant and closest companions here.. Abt u:- The French bearded Bong. with a penchant for always looking from the ‘other’ point of view.. ritualistic EPL follower, die-hard KFC and Cornitoes lover, and surely one of the high value customers of dosa point and pi (foodie to the core) ;) amazing grasping power wen it comes to trying out anything new.. ur ‘balma’ and ‘hookah bar’ moves rocked our RIP, agn we literally tortured everyone wile returning from mandu wid our gifted singing.. u also did a decent job as our HOP leader ;) Shifu (master with inner peace - credits to DK for the name) is wat epitomizes u as u always appear calm even wen derz a great turmoil within u.. a very down to earth, flexible and reasonable person- jus dat u don’t need to look down upon urself as much as u do.. u r a lot better than u think urself to be ;) I guess we both had a great understanding of each other as most of the times I could blindly rely on you for anything I expected of u without asking/telling u abt it.. umpteen special memories â?? the way u innocently replied to the senior- “no it was from 10pm” (when we reached for our ppt past 12 n she told us that we were expected at 11), u trying ur best to sound angry and bash the mess fellow for delaying our order, losing ur phone in Datia, then u 4 looking for a hotel for 8 ppl at 12 in the night only for a few hrs :P u singing old Kishore Kumar songs at PD, ur cowboy look at HOP, ur nonchalant response wen u got placed n the list goes on.. u have been an integral part of my stay on campus, n hopfully our frndship will last the distance ;) ...KRIT DOSHI I stil remember him doing sm funny steps during T-night preparation n dats hw v gt to knw each other..hes very logical n always hs a point in wat he says..so dnt argue wid him if u cant bk it up :D vry talented n gud at studies..kitana bhi timepass kar le, marks kabhi kum nahi honge.. a true friend ï?? majorrr foodiiee among all of us..he does wat he wants to do and literally doesnâ??t care abt wat ppl think n I lyk this thing abt him..a perfect fit for a HR person wid dat trademark beard :D really hd lot of fun wid u buddy..wil never forget d way u said â??salleâ?? dat day (hop u remember)..haha..n hey u hv gt really gud qualities n u r capable..jst stay positive n go fr wat u want to achieve.. ï?? all my wishes fr ur future..!!... ABHISHEK N MAHAJAN My savior during most of the classes. I would cherish those moments that we spent in the first year. I could survive most of the classes inspite of the profs infesting boredom upon us only because both u and vaishali were nut cracks when it comes to making other people laugh. Although, i still wonder how u managed dozing off to sleep and CP-ing simultaneously :P All the very best for a bright future and do keep in touch :)...KEERTHI KOCHERLAKOTA

Lasting impressions about college : Wonderful frenz, beautiful campus and of couurrssee the mess food (:-P) Lasting impressions about college :

Our journey surely began way back in the IIM S interview. Surely one of the closest buddies I have ever made - somehow I felt we used to think a lot alike (or maybe that’s just my misconception :P) But an ever-positive guy with no Ego whatsoever and always more than willing to help.. So a brief description about u:- The right-handed nadal on campus ;) aussie at heart but still an extremely sporting fellow ;) An outright marketing guy stuck in fin :P a coke addict giving company in veg. food wenever I wanted one;) hard working and an immensely committed chap ripped off by the barber assuming u to be an NRI :P Strangely, though we were never in the same section throughout the course, I guess der was hardly a day wen v dint waste time chitchatting about any crap dat we could think of over meals or simply trudging from mess to pi and back looking for something to eat.. be it the joint studies for OM or our futile efforts to crack maverick and all or escaping to city on any unreasonable pretext or playing tennis, tt, cricket, darts etc. v 3 (swarn) had this amazing knack of finding things to keep ourselves occupied even with quizzes, exams or placements round the corner.. n I guess dat is y right frm the bakra days u both were my family away from home.. as for memorable trips - innumerable passport visits, RIP, wandering aimlessly amidst scenic beauty during HOP searching for the path, other mini trips like mandu, patalpani etc. they are simply countless.. always supportive and encouraging, u were the first one I would think of, wenever I needed any help.. there’s a lot more I would love to ryt but this aint any essay competition :P jus wanna say thanx for being there always and surely would cherish the AWESOME memories with u on campus ;) ...KRIT DOSHI I had seen him around in the campus since first year but got to know him well only in the second. My first impression of Swaroop was that of a boastful, thinking too much of himself , cold-dude kind of guy (probably because of the spikes + goatee :P).However, when I got in touch with him, he actually turned out to be just the opposite :). Jokes apart, Swaroop is one of the best people I have come across in this campus.He just has the personality to win everyone’s heart.Cheerful, jovial, intelligent, Fin-geek,witty,helping and the list is endless.....Contrary to his looks, hez quite matured and understanding.....may be that’s an Aussie thing :P.He has always been my partner while pulling Abhishek’s leg.I can’t forget to mention his contribution ( for that matter of all three of you) in planning my birthday. I owe it to all of you for kinda accepting me :P. Thanks a lot for everything guys :). My best wishes for your future swaroop :) You would excel wherever you go. One more thing...you are too cute while talking in hindi :) ....I guess all the criticism has helped you retain the motivation to master the language. :P...SHOBHNA SHRUTI

Hi Swati...! The cat girl..! I remember all the fun we had being in the first assignment group. Thanks for your wishes and support at Planet-I. I hope you have a great life and career ahead..! Cheers...! ...AMBATI AVINASH One of the seniors who I used to admire in DCE, because she was one of the few girls who would be into sports, in addition to being a rockstar academically. It seems she hasn’t changed much since then :P. Probably one of the most stylish toppers! And the only girl in campus (as far as I know) who can do chin-ups. Iska devil-may-care attitude mast hai. Dance me zabardast hai. Gossip me interest hai. :P. You will surely do well. Wish you the best!...SHREYA TANDON I came to know her after we had a fight after a section party. The introduction was not a very normal one, but that made us very very good friends eventually. A brilliant student and an awesome dancer, she is always jovial. She never let the difficult times take a toll on her and fights her way back. A fighter in a true sense, a very straight talker who has the courage to call a spade spade. A very lively person and a very emotional one too. Someone who is very good at heart and a very childish. I know you are going to make it big in life. Best wishes from me....SENAJIT CHAKI Initially Ms. Mystereous but on getting to know her iv realised that in Swati is one of the most honest, no nonesense people youl ever find. Shes a hard worker and has the brains to back it up, brilliant academically. To most people shel seem to be this tough, intimidating girl but shes quite emotional and fun to hang out with. Its very easy to have an honest conversation with her as there are absolutely no judgements passed just some really good advice. Wish you all the very best Swati and keep in touch...Aaron DSouza Swati, a dear friend whom I have known since school time.. You are an achiever in true sense...jack of all trades and always an outstanding performer. You have guided me well and have always been helpful. It was great to have met you here again... Wish you lots of goodluck for your future.. :) :)...NIDHI SINGH I got a chance to interact with you rarely but I believe you are the second most talented,outspoken,audacious girl I have come across in my life. You have high self-esteem, a healthy ego of size of Antarctica and capable of anything. I hope you get finest things in life and have a wonderful time ahead. ...TAMBE ABHIJIT DINESH

The “fashionista” of the group! The smallest person with probably the biggest heart and a smile that never fades. You’re a monkey beyond any realm of imagination but are one of the hardest workers that I know on campus. Your ability to get on with almost anybody is something that I will always admire apart from several other things. You can turn the most dull situation into one of complete joy with that extremely infectious laughter of yours. I will never forget those endless sessions of you laughing because someone just mentions your name. No one on campus knows me like you do (which is quite dangerous, because I can never lie around you :P). You probably will blame me for all the weight you’ve put on (yes I said it) but just think of all the awesome food you’ve been introduced to in the process. All the late night study sessions, the work on competitions and the general banter over any subject under the rainbow has left me with only one thought - You are without a shadow of a doubt my best friend and someone who I will cherish for years to come :) All the best for a kickass career in marketing and to eventually become the manager of a huge luxury brand. You rock now and will always continue to do so :) Keep smiling and making everyone else do so in the process. Cheers!...VIVIAN PAUL GONSALVES Swatty, the Socialite, is my favourite buddy and sheâ??s the reason why Iâ??ve started playing and enjoying the mobile games. Sheâ??s one person whoâ??d always be there if I want someone to go to mess with, or to shop around with or if I just want to irritate someone. And I love her standard dialogue, â??Singhal tere liye kuch bhi! :Pâ??. She makes so much fun of me that I have promised to kill her someday. But sheâ??s earned it, the right to make fun of me. ï?? Iâ??ve always seen her laughing like crazy and she can just handle anything grave situation by just laughing at it. I totally recommend her if someone is in dire need of â??laughter therapyâ??. Swati, I will big time miss those RMS classes where youâ??d give me your phone to play games, get Forbes magazine for me to read and what not, in totality all the stuff for my entertainment. I wish you all the best for your career and life. Iâ??m sure youâ??ll be very successful at whatever you do. I wonâ??t say â??hope to remain good friendsâ??, because you just have no other option. God bless! ...SIDDHARTH SINGHAL The first time I interacted with Swati was when we teamed up for a Consulting Club competition. And interestingly, we came 4th, just missing out on the podium finish very closely. But it was fun working together. A very chilled out person, Swati is really cool in many aspects. A perfect Delhiite. I remember the laugh we had over the Investment Banking to Ketchup selling plight of mine in SR14 common room during summers! :D Wish you all the best in life. Have fun :)... ISHAN BOSE Giggles. The effervescent one. Be it the most serious thing unfolding on campus, giggles are always there. Crack a joke, poke fun and get the latest updates from around the campus, you are a one stop solution. From the phone incident during the summers to some of the most boring classes we attended, it has been a lot of laughter. The BIDM classroom has been the icing on the cake in our interaction on the campus I must admit. Keep Giggling. Wishing you the very best for your future!...Rishabh Trivedi

Eraj is one of the most sensible and uncomplicated person I have met here on campus.... he and Niraj really helped me a lot to get used to life here - absolutely chilled out benchmates....It was great talking to him in and after class and I always felt that he had a calming influence...Eraj has great aptitude and also has a strong opinion....I am sure he would do really well for himself in life. Wish you all the success, mate :)...RUDRASHIS ROY Eraj- the complete misfit at IIM Indore. He was always too sophisticated for this place. Talking to him is always enriching and very interesting. He was one of the first few friends I had on campus and one of my closest friends I found here. I will surely remember all our ‘walks’ and the ideas we discussed. Hope you start something and become a successful entrepreneur like you always wanted to be! Cheers!...TANMAY LALIT TAPASE Eraj of all student just like me u were able to see through urself. life is tough and ppl will always question u for watever u do but just follow ur heart and listen to ur heart. life is too short to waste somewhere, rather enjoy it fully and leave no regret for later on. keep smiling...ABHIJEET SINGH Clearly one of the most mature and level headed guys here. Also, one of the very few genuine people I know. I talked to him first time in summers during Heinz process when he came out of the interview room and I anxiously asked him about how it was inside. And while many would simply give a subdued picture or avoid direct conversation, this guy gave me the crystal clear picture and even tips on how to go about it, when frankly we were both competing for the role (and those tips eventually helped me end up with the role). Well that is Eraj for you, the guy who looks at the bigger picture. One of those guys who as per me made the most of their time on exchange on all aspects and can be the perfect ambassador for student exchange for batches to come. And of the few interactions we have had, your opinions strike a chord with me more often than not. Appreciate that you are taking up your family business when you could have easily landed up with one of the better roles on offer here. Wish you all the best in that. Have fun :)...ISHAN BOSE It is completely beyond my comprehension how a person of your stature ended up here. You are one guy who knows it all and has it all. Your sheer talent is worthy of appreciation. Preserve it. Good luck finding something that you enjoy doing. All the very best and do keep in touch :)...KEERTHI KOCHERLAKOTA Probably should have met you a lot earlier. One of the most level minded people on campus, with keen interest in everything pure - be it music, sports or literature. IIMs do need more outcasts and non-conformists like you. Won’t ever forget the first proper conversation we had the went on for hours. We still got a lot of catching up to do. Hope to see you as an accomplished person 10 years down the line....KIRAN RADHAKRISHNAN

Captain!!! :) :D Anna,Chittappa and what else!!! 2 years on and I still have’nt grown a day older for you, anna! As much angry and sad I was that you had to leave for Greece, I’m almost worried and konjam scared to think of this campus without you! Seriously anna, I’ve not known a person who cared for me more than you did, after my parents! And you’re someone who signed as my anna, when I was admitted at the hospital! :o I was overwhelmed! None ever knew me as your friend, I was better known as Mohan’s sister! I still can’t believe I have to think of this campus without you!! For the hours of shuttle we played, and for all those petty reasons I had cried to you about!! You’re only response has been “Paathuklam vidu daa”!! And that’s how I’ve always known you !! Someone whose spirit nothing could falter!! To you, I’ll always remain the little girl who’ll run up to you and say, “Anna, so shall we go play!! “ ;) And to me you’ll be my anna, our captain!! :D :D... Nivetha Captaiinnn !! The one person who will always say ‘Yes’ to everything ... Got to know u so well being ur room-mate in Noida ... I still remember u watching movies till 6 in the morning !!

Due to shortage of time I was not able to spend much time with you but still I know u are good guy with life full of fun and responsibilities..i still wonder how u got to know about me when u were not here at the campus :P...but u were always thr to help :) ..Thanks for ur support when i needed it...I know u wil be very successful....just stay in touch and keep enjoying the life....have lots and lots of fun :)...PAYAL YADAV Captain you *Dash*... 1 of the most respected people in campus. This old fellow is hailed as captain by one and all. We spent some wonderful days together in Noida. His expert opinion in chess games, wednesday bowling competitions, after dinner Ice Creams. I will always remember his spats with Manish Ahuja whose english and hindi both were untellable. He is a champion badminton player and theres a lot to learn from him. He is a womanizer, so girls beware; he will treat you as a sister ;-) Captain I wish you all the best in life, thank you for the memorable b’day party. Will meet you again in Chennai :-)...

I have been in awe of Niraj right from the time I have met him...started out with his family business at a very young age, he’s an extremely talented engineer - some brilliant designs he can come up with from robots to complex machines, an entrepreneur with some brilliant ideas and concepts in his kitty. One or more of his ideas would surely make it big and he’s ready to take it to greater heights, now that he is armed with an MBA degree. Niraj just needed a degree but he never laxed on his academics here - he was always very committed and willing to contribute. He managed his entrepreneurial work and studies brilliantly. He and Eraj were a very positive influence in the process of my getting used to life at IIM-I....Wish you all the success in life and may all your dreams come true :)...RUDRASHIS ROY If I got through the first year of classes in this program, I solely attribute it to Niraj. In the intense boredom, I found a neighbor in class who would make it, at times, impossible to suppress my laughter to the irritation of the professors. If you haven’t seen him design, you have missed watching a genius at work. His conviction and his resolve to stand by them, inspire you to do greater things. Not to say that he is by far one of the most jovial people, who never misses any opportunity to pull a prank or crack a joke that will leave you in splits. ...SYED ERAJ HASSAN

We call him TAMBE wch means, T- Talented, A- Ambitious, M- Money minded, B- Bombay stock exchange :P (spends most of his time trading in the stock market), E- energetic. I came to know about him when I was trying to solve my first Rubik’s cube. He could solve it in less than a minute and his best is around 40 secs wch is awesome... Coming from a mechanical background, his knowledge abt medicines is truly amazing and loves stock trading second to nothing.. Though he has a room of his own, he spends most of his times in his friends’ rooms and also does analysis of their internet activities.. :P .. He is very keen about finance and economics and is a big fan of Kejru ji .. :) In short he is a dynamite waiting for the time and moment to explode and showcase his immense talent to the world... It was nice having you as a friend and hope that you soon become the “ The bhediya of dalal street” :P ...DEBRAJ DAS My first friend in the campus( burger friend u noe :p), an awesome trader( dude you gonna be wolf of wall street one day).... the guy who stopped me from quitting the course( library ke pas se wapas laya tha).... one who gave me all the gyans of life ( with burger ofcourse , behind FPM block :p ).... one who kept on counting my crushes ( dont know from where u got all the names).... Seriously bhai, we used to walk till the railway crossing, just for the burger..... U resembled me in so many ways, like our thought process, our interest in mythology ( mahabharat :p, discussions about koran and bible).... You, my friend, will be an asset for me in my entire life ( balance sheet wala :p)..... remain as you are, keep trading and you will be one of the greatest trader ever born...... ...NISHANT KUMAR Crazy about trading and he has made hell lot of money from that too .. quiet talented in this area.. He is always lost into his phone.. either trading, reading news or talking to his GF (least likely.. my money is on the first two .. . He is a big time bear and enjoys most markets are in freefall.. He is goonna be the next Shankar Sharma of Indian Stock markets Very lazy and carefree when it comes to other things.. . Full of humour and will always keep cracking jokes on others.. his most favourite victims are Pandey and Baba . . Fun loving and cheerful guy he is.. Wish you all the best and Stay in touch Tambe .. .(TEri bhi beer pending hai abhi tak sale jo tune trading profit se pilani thi :P :P)...ASHWANI KANSAL Tambuuu..one of the quietest guys but awesomely talented and again a friendly neighborsince 1st year. Has always been a helpful friend and yeah it was fun working with you in term 1. You truly held our ship in those rocky seas during those days when we were not much used to assignments. Had an awesome RIP, Still remember why u took certain actions on Day 2 and I think..it’s rare. Now let me come to the next part, his stock market and trading skills, knowledge about economic affairs around the globe and their impact can give any Wall Street guy a run for his money. A helpful person with doses of humor coming up at unexpected moments, you have been a great friend. I remember the way you inspired me one day before I was about to leave campus for summers. Thanks and wish you all the best for life,,,:)...DIPAYAN KARMAKAR

A poet, a writer, an intellectual and someone who is intentionally immature. This guy can do so many random things and still remain to stay sane for most of the part. Sad that I didnâ??t have much interaction with you in the first year (saved me some money for sure:-P, because most of your conversations start with- abe aaj raat ko bahar chalega). I donâ??t know anyone other than you who has written a very long mail to a certain faculty and neither do I know anyone who fears of getting an F after bunking just 2 lectures in a 4-credit course:-P Funny things apart, you are a great friend who has the ability to speculate widely and create gossips, which I enjoy of course. I donâ??t know of anyone else has said this, but- Tanno, tu dil se achcha hai:-). You are like a kid who refuses to grow up and thatâ??s why I can draw so many parallel between you and Joey of FRIENDS As it seems like you would want to go to Hyderabad Deloitte instead of Mumbai and given the fact that you are currently bothering me so much for Phuket tickets, I am going to cut it short here. Hope people flood your wall with testimonials and tere 1750 rs poore vasul ho jaye :-P .... GHOLAP GAURAV ANIL Tanno! I would like to start with an apology for all the not-so-gentle ABCs I have directed at you..but you also know am very good at heart so lets call it even :D Back in first year i thot you are one quiet and smart last bencher who does good CP :) But now I know you are a sincere, studious, creative, complex, intelligent, energetic, sensitive, sweet(:P..muhaha) fellow wondering what to do with all the above qualities :P But whatever it is you decide to do, am sure you will be awesome at it :D I really appreciate all my mistakes you have pointed, putting up with my random barbs, trying your best not to be “awkward & shy” around people and ofcourse for being fun while not sulking/ listening to random music :P..I look forward to a mention of my name in the “acknowledgement” section of your future anthology :D please english translation bhi karde :P Chalo all the best :) - H...ROHINI H If Tanmay and I were left to rule the world together, we would probably create a state of anarchy not witnessed before. We both are reluctant adults who find in our mischief, an unending source of inspiration that can border on mindless. That is what made our time together special and unlike any other friendship. That said, Tanmay’s intelligence borders on ingenuity. He is one of those people, if left to fulfill his potential, will go out and make a difference in the best possible way. And, that is an understatement. ...SYED ERAJ HASSAN I was a little apprehensive before our first resume SPOC interaction, but you turned out to be completely different from what I had expected.. you were very helpful and approachable. Thank you for answering all my questions patiently :) Best wishes for your career ahead! Keep in touch :)...ANIMA SHARMA

I don’t think this space can do any bit of justice to the friendship we share. You are my home away from home. I don’t think my 2 years here would have been possible without you being there at every point when I needed you ( and when I did not need you as well :P) I will always cherish the happy and sad times spent together-the random nonsense, gossips, intellectual talks, my problems, long walks, Himalaya trip, and your enlightenment on a PARTICULAR topic ( Pun intended) :D Always stay just the way you are because you are perfect, and so is our friendship :) Love you :) ...SONAKSHI BEHL Tarandeep! Did not get to interact with you during first 2 terms...Things changed when we landed in the same group in term 3. To be honest, I was initially very apprehensive...I even doubted if we could complete our assignments on time :P But boy was I surprised! Not only did you turn out to be the best person to have in a group during strict deadlines (I have never seen this guy tensed..he is always so relaxed), you were also the most fun person to have around.. You can always trust this guy to find humor in even the silliest things. And I must say I found many things amusing about you- Like the fact that you wake up in the noon :P , that you have more chocolates in your room than a 4 year old might have :P and that your room is actually very neat! On a parting note all I can say is that you are a good friend and that you go out of your way to help others without even letting the other person know about it :) ...JYOTHI GARG Tara Sitara :)))...one of the most fun loving, relaxed guy I have ever seen...sitting towards the last row corner bench & sleeping :-) is the first thing that comes to my mind when someone mention Tarandeep :p. I still remember his Challenge CP’s during the class (Kareena Kapoor in strategy-I :d ). All said very helpful person & would never say no for any help needed :-). Glad to have a friend like you, Wishing you all the very best for future :-) and hope that our paths may cross again in the future....PANKAJ DHINGRA A person with a great understanding of people.. A person with whom I have loved sharing almost each and every bit of my life.. Many a times misunderstood by people but he is a gem of a person.. Have loved chit-chatting, sharing secrets, gossiping with you.. The saga will surely continue :P .. Stay the way you are.. Wish you all the happiness in life :) ...SUPRIYA THUKRAL

Hi Tejas..! You are more than cool than you appear :p I enjoyed working with you for the ‘i-ball busters’ tagline and the discussions among you, bapat and me were memorable. I hope you have a great time ahead and may all the happiness be yours. Cheers..!...AMBATI AVINASH The guy responsible for waking me up countless number of times during first year, along with Bapat, is one of the most pleasant guys I have come across. For someone who controls his emotions really well - well he does laugh occasionally - it was fun rubbing the entire chocolate cake on your face and hair during your birthday. By the way, you used to get scared when I dozed off in the diro’s class. A good friend who was always there to take time out whenever I approached him....here’s wishing you a successful life and career and hope that we stay in touch :)...MAINAK BHOWMIK Tejas- You’ve been together with me since school, be it Somalwar, Ambedkar College, VNIT Nagpur, BHEL and finally here at IIM Indore. You are one of the most hardworking persons and have never been afraid of taking risks. I hope you soon start your own Consulting Company and employ all of us there. :P Stay in touch. Cheers!...TANMAY LALIT TAPASE Tejas- One guy who knows when to chillax and when to work hard...Always found munching or studying... We instantly became after we became group mates in first term... You have always been one of the friends I can depend on... jab bhi koi subject theek se nahi padha hota tha, I used to knock at your door, and tu achhe se samjha deta tha... I hope we keep in touch.... All the best for your life......SHAUNAK VISHWAKARMA Tejas- the Operations Stud of our batch, is someone whom I first got to know during our Industrial Visit where I had no clue as to what was to be done, and Tejas was always to the rescue. I really appreciate how he always remains calm and composed. I wish him a very successful and happy professional and personal life :) ...Deepak Talluri TRL!!! One of my closest friend at IIM-I!!! You were always there for me, be it accompanying me to the night mess when you didnt want to go, explaining concepts late at night or the legendary TT games... Always calm and composed, ready within moments to help anyone who approaches you. You were one of the earliest people that I knew at IIM-I. The awesome CA assignments, your “White Dabba” as I refer to your Macbook, my struggles with your white dabba... Will miss it all after a few days. The incredible RIP and HOP trips, you were the only one common in both the groups!! Wishing you success in your life, personal and career!!...BAPAT ABHISHEK VISHWAS

Dosti in 2 mins. He is that friendly a guy, Owns a car in campus. One of the few people to do so. Calm and Serene person. The best way to describe him is they way he cracks a joke out of a joke. Salute for that. One of the finest CS player but his knees too goes weak in front of almighty HITMAN_47 (that’s me). He is very fond of Punjabi language too. Awesome walk on the ramp mate. To add to more, I will miss a friend like him.. Friendship with him are like the ones where you do not need to interact frequently but you can rely that it will continue till eternity. I loved his cooking skill in PGP and his adventures with Exchange participants in IIM I.

One of the oldest friends at IIM Indore and our bond has come a long way from the first term discussions to the talks that we have now (You know what I mean :P). But seriously, Variksh is one person you must have on your side if you have any major task coming up. He would be there helping you prepare, suggest all possible ways of doing it (some of them are really innovative), give insider information :) and finally do as much jugaad as possible to help you achieve what you set out for. He is simply brilliant at networking and somehow has all the information that you might want. Genuinely hope that you would be put up in Mumbai and we all can go out and enjoy the Mumbai night life! ...RUCHIK KIRTI GANDHI A person who is always in excitement (not Soham wala excitement :D) - always thinking, networking, judging people, forming an opinion ! Jumps the gun a bit too early at times, but has a high level of maturity and understanding. A bit short tempered..yes..but a person of bold spirits - straightforward. You are one of the first few friends that I had at IIM I - I remember getting introduced to u well on Gate 1..we were returning from TI I guess. We have been friends ever since. The sadistic side of me gets an orgasm when u get piSSed with my ‘Frequently Uttered Lines’ :D :D :D This is not gonna change I assure u :P We r keeping touch for sure. Looking forward to Goa :) :) :)...AYUSH AGARWAL One of the coolest VJTIians to be at IIM Indore. Initially, I thought you were an angry young man and feared approaching you. But knowing you later changed my view to a great extent (though still I fear you a bit :P ) You were always helpful and very frank in your opinions and it helped me a lot to improve myself. Thanks a lot for your guidance and help.Rock it man !!...AKHIL KRISHNAN SHOBA Right from meeting you co-incidentally during MBA interviews and not even getting your name right to having you as one of my closest friends on campus, it has been quite a journey. I am still amazed at the amount you can talk and the amount you gossip. You’ve been someone I have turned to for every stupid little confusion of mine and you have never failed to help me out (even with just the yes or no questions you have always made the right choice ;) ;P) You are one of the few people who can effortlessly make me smile in any situation :D I hope you continue to pleasantly surprise me with your behaviour as always :D and some day take my advice a little seriously! :P ...SONIKA KHURANA Got to know u a bit late but we covered that up during our classic and rd outings...u r someone who speaks his mind...and that is the best thing about u...happy that i got to know u... stay in touch..aur waise bhi tu to delhi mein hi hai...milte rahiyo......SUGEET MITTAL

First crush in the institute : Lasting impressions about college : Lasting impressions about college :

I met Anshu for the first time at El-Cafe, Dadar before coming to Indore. The first impression that I got of her was that this girl has a lot of attitude. However, as I got to know her, I realized what a gem of a person she is. She loves to pamper people. She is fond of eating outside, taking long night walks, dancing, etc. She looks lovely in Indian outfits. I really appreciate her for the way she has overcome the difficulties and also for the person she is. I know I can always count on her. She is one of the few good friends I have made on campus. And I know that our friendship would go a long way. All the very best to you! We’ll definitely stay in touch. ...BHANTI PRATIKSHA DEEPAK The first interaction i had with her was when a couple of us were standing outside hariya’s office regarding a quiz in term 1. Some random thing that i said and she taunts- happy realization. I wondered how can somebody be so out rightly rude to another soul with absolutely no provocation. The day ends and i vouch to never interact with this female ever again in life. The next time she came across during our summers--during those absolutely long old- audi filled suit vested days, she comes up with an absurd plan to take everybody out for a dinner. I look right at her and think what on earth! she doesn’t even know me and she is asking me to come for dinner to some fancy place that too when i had vouched not to ever cross paths with this female ever again. Then the next day, i was sitting for another interview and she comes to pay me a visit and motivates me before i go in. What the hell! She has been one person who has always made her way back into my life ever since. Be super mad at her and she never fails to make an impression and there is no way in which you can stop yourself from talking to her. You are very unlike what people say about you. You always have had the purest of the hearts. Always stay the same. All the very best for your future :)...KEERTHI KOCHERLAKOTA First girl whom i interacted at Planet-I...uss din se pata hai ki you are mad thodi nahi kaafi.....Some of the obvious things about you are, very good looking girl, fashion expert, long girl with good fighting skills Some of the not known facts about you are that you are a diamond at heart, many people do not know this about you kyunki tum gussa aur masti itna jyada karti ho yeh part chup jata hai. You have a very great life ahead and you know you have not paid me for predicting this ;) only few can understand what it means MAST RAHO & Believe in GOD ...NAVDEEP SINGH CHAUHAN

TV series lover and very effective at puncturing egos with your sarcasm! A lot of fun to be with! good luck for the future!...SHREYA TANDON So let’s talk about feminism? Should we? :P Jokes aside. Trishla is one of the strongest girl I have come across. I really had a good share of fun with you. Cracking jokes with you Pulling your leg. Can’t deny that I enjoyed even fighting and arguing with you. He he. Would definitely not forget you. Stay in touch. And good luck for your future. See you in Mumbai ;) ...Ishan Rishabh Kansal Disclaimer- Trishla just looks tough, she’s quite a softie inside. She also has a chronic fear of dogs, so if you want to get back at her you know what to do. One of the things love about her is that she’s straight as an arrow and always wears her heart on her sleeve. Ever willing to pick up an argument over feminism, her favourite dialogue is ‘How sexi...st’. She has a lovely closeup smile and loves pulling poor people’s legs :P. The two of us are the only people on campus not to have a surname and also belong to the same state (nontechnically). I seriously wish we can have a Litti-Chokha dinner sometime together. And pray, please don’t entertain the idea of kicking cute dogs ever again. Maybe I’ll meet you someday in your hometown when I come to visit my idol. :-D...APAL It is only just that I begin with your testimonial Trishla. Of all the people in this world who have an opinion about me, you are the only one who knows me substantially, and I can’t begin to thank you for being that one person. You are one of the very few people I know who have their heart in the right place, and yet can be amazingly honest. It is such a rare quality to possess. You no doubt have very strong emotions which you carry in your sleeve, and one really needs to clear stringent criteria to enter your “awesome friends” club :). I am sure you are capable of doing more than justice to your work in future, if you find it interesting enough. It is rare to find someone diligent and cool at the same time. Every single moment spent with you has been sheer pleasure Trishla, and believe me when I say you have no idea how much impact you have had on me. I’ll miss so many things about this campus, and almost all of them are because of you. I just want to say I am really sad to see you go, but I am sure you will have an amazing life ahead. Just stay the way you are, and all the life’s complexities will unfold. I really hope we stay in touch... I’ll be needing your help when I take up “random responsibilities with random person”. Good Luck Trishla From “April” - WIth Love :)...SAURABH KUNWAR Wise, Brave and Rational.. She is one heck of a girl with whom you can have any type of banter, be it all that girl stuff, sitcoms, gossips, all that feminism bakar. Plus she is very committed at the same time when it comes to work - observed it when we both were a part of same assignment group. A fun loving person. Do keep in touch always.. Wish you a great life :) ...SUPRIYA THUKRAL

Tridev, I just love the name given to you by our fav teacher. You were amongst my friend in this campus and I am glad that we met. We have had some great time in this institute and shared loads of funny stories. Have a great life and try not to continue Vajpayee Ji as your ideal in the board meetings :)...Parag Jain Rishab bhai or lalaji as I call him is one of the most easygoing guys in the campus. We had good time in the first year and he would always have one or two PJs up hi sleeve :P ...very helpful and fun-loving too (found that out in Delhi during our intern) and is always up for anything as long as it does not involve drinking :P I think you will do well in business (being a Gujju :P ) so think of this as an option All the best for your future and keep in touch :)...CHINMAY NAHAR Our beloved Kaddu....a foodie, who says there are so many outlets in Indore and never took us to any. I remember the first outlet, “Rambabu Ke Parathe” we went nearly to Dewas for tasting a simple paratha...a jovial guy who lives life laughing at everything hat comes his way.... a self-proclaimed, “out-of the box-thinker” even though it costs us a competition. He is the “Herbie” of our group, be it the rainbow sweater or the pack of medicines...trekking is not his arena... We had exceptional time these 2 years.....and we will continue to do so....best of luck...HEMANTA PRAMANICK Fatso was a great buddy and helped me a lot during first year. Gladly we were wing mates and I disturbed him as much as I can :D You say u dont know a thing and top quizzes which was very irritating x-( Fatso was a source of comfort during the times I was down in year 1, which was very often. I ve been impressed with your number crunching skills and ability to drink a whole litre of milk, Hatsoff! :-o Good luck for your career ahead :) ...SRINIVAAS G Rishabh met him first during my IIM Lucknow Interview and after coming to Indore one of the very first friends of the campus ...and not to forget coming from my city Ahmadabad.. we had enjoyable trips going to Ahmadabad and campus.. he is the one who knows in and out about MP.. he is the one who enjoys his life to its fullest. A very smart, helpful and resourceful guy.. A great Quiz and food enthusiast.He was the one who introduced to the delicious Indore street food which I would always remember...though he doesnt give a damn to my advice of reducing weight, I wish he does it seriously.. He is one my the best persons and best friends on the campus I have... Wish you be what you are and Wish you all the success for your future... Will always meet when in Ahmadabad.. :):)...KOTHARI ABHISHEK BHARAT

Tushar, a.k.a. Agarwal/Agarwala is a very down to earth guy. He is pretty laid back, lazy guy..always claiming that he knows nothing, no clue abt what to study and has been sleeping all through. He arrives right at the last moment for breakfast and sleeps (at times) during classes. You really need to be patient when he starts speaking (such a slow pace!), but yup, his sentences arent too long..so that compensates! Fin enthusiast, he is talented and focused and has maintained a very low profile on campus (inviting no buzz!). It was a pleasure spending quality time in your company. Wish you all the best. Keep in touch :) ...PARAG PODDAR Bhai bht hi cool hai.. baat karke mood halka ho jata hai.. very particular in wot he wants,, AMEX ni chaiye.. Mumbai hi chahiye.. Finance k alawa kuch ni.. Bht sahi attitude hai.. keep it up.. Hariya k liye kafi padhna padha tha sath mein :P All the best for ICICI n keep in tch.....RACHIT MITTAL A very chilled out guy..He is very focused and knows exactly what he wants..He maintains a low profile and rarely makes CP in class(quite like me:P)..It is real fun to hang out with him..He is very logical and becomes really entertaining after a few drinks..:P..We have spent a lot of time together especially in the second year in our trips to PD and then RD.. Looking forward to spending more time in Mumbai aheadâ?¦Wish you all the best bhai..... ATISHAY KUMAR JAIN Agarwaaalaa...(thanks to ICICI workshop for his nick name :P..remember??)..Extremely chilled-out guy but do excel in everything. He is brilliant, hard(ly) work and intelligent one. Usually starts talking with a slow (in fact a very slow) pace but wins everyone’s heart with his radical approach. I really had a great time with you in last two years here especially your peculiar laughter :P and gonna miss these moments in my life. You have a great potential to get every success in life. Best wishes for your wonderful and prosperous future. Do keep in touch :) :)...AKSHAY MANGAL Tushar bhai I remember when I met you first time here in the campus. It was outside NC4 we were waiting for doors to open for one of so many MAC quizzes. “Chandausi” was the common connection :) Finally I found a guy who knew about the town. Fortunately we were in same group in first term. That was the time we actually came to know each other better. First term mein marks ki bht tension leta tha saale :P I remember those cricket highlights we watched together on Youtube :) Whatever I studied in that term was in your room only. My room was like bedroom for me :P Maverick and Centurion were great experiences with you :) Second year mein ek to marketing elective le leta kam se kam :P HOP and RIP trips saath mein ki. I felt pretty special when you asked me to meet Aunty in Kathgodam.. :) Bht saari memories hain yaar..aur aage bi rhengi..Always keep in touch :) I know you are one of the most talented and focused guy in this campus.

The day you were allotted a seat next to me, I was like who is this random Gupta guy, but never did I imagine that I would spend most of my campus life hanging out with you. I would have surely knocked your door atleast 500 times till date I guess, that says everything. I can go on writing about several things but I would just like to add one thing that the day you got through Samsung, I realized I had never been happier for someone else in my life. I am truly lucky and privileged to have you as my friend....Deepak Talluri Tushar- He is one of the most childish persons I know, although he tries extremely hard to behave like a mature grown up person. He was a part of my ‘Bakra’ group and so by default, my oldest friend on campus. Tushar likes to talk, and by that I mean talk A LOT. Whether it is his internship experiences, his college life, his placement interviews or anything. But, all his talks are pretty interesting mainly because of the peculiar way in which he tells those stories. He is very chilled out and always ready to help others whether it is with food or by helping in assignments. We have shared many memorable times together and I will always cherish them. I couldn’t hang with you much in second year and that is something I will always regret, But, we have our entire life left now to enjoy. Cheers!...TANMAY LALIT TAPASE Walks in Tushar Gupta and befriends anyone so easily! (More easily of the other person is a girl :-P). You are one of the few persons on the campus who share my love for booze; I would remember that famous 5am chat of ours lifelong. I have appreciated the way you always take initiative for any of our group plans and successfully convince people most of the times. I am sure you would sell big in Samsung :-). And yes, as Tanno has written in his testimonial, you talk a LOT, which is a good thing of course:-P All the best and feel free to gift me any Samsung gadget for any kind of market testing!...GHOLAP GAURAV ANIL Never felt like you were my friend, To be honest I always considered you my younger brother. Seeing you work hard for Mridang was witnessing your journey from little boy to a responsible man. Well, Should I even mention the innumerable discussions in Night Mess. When no one wanted to come with me, you were always there to share Chicken Schezwan Fried Rice ( hahaha). I know you will make a great leader. Your appetite for work and your brilliant negotiation skills will take you a long way. Stay in touch bro..!!...SUMANTH J Well this is one guy I bump into more often than anybody in the batch. In fact this has become our common joke every time we see each other. Whether it be night mess in term two (where we beat all probability and meet 11 out of 10 times I went there) or the B block washroom (I know that sounds unceremonious on many levels but then thatâ??s the truth) :P A happy go lucky guy with a smile on his face always, one of those people whom you would always get positive vibes from. Remain this way dude! And I hope after passing out we still keep bumping into each other, maybe not in B Block washroom but yes better places! Stay blessed & have fun :)...ISHAN BOSE

Sneha! I wonder why we did not interact much in 1st year :| I have definitely become a lil more girly refined thanks your inputs/suggestions :D and of course we make a great team, we have 50% success rate in competitions (which we are yet to celebrate!) :P I really admire your poise, patience and your commitment towards work ..You are a great confidant and a friend and i will always cherish all the times we spent discussing life and times :) And am sure you will excel in whichever field you decide to pursue your career so dont worry about it :) Keep smiling as always and keep in touch :) ...ROHINI H Elegance personified! I am so glad we happened to end up in the same section. Life here would not have been so simple without you as a friend. There is so much that I have learned from our interactions. You have offered me the moral support and self confidence which I needed badly. You’re like the elder (sorry, could not help :P) sister I never had, and I adore you for that. It’s sometimes difficult to believe how trust worthy, kind hearted and sweet you are. With the sincerity and willingness you display in all your endeavours, you are bound to reach greater heights. Looking forward to many more good moments together!...RAJNI RANJAN A perfect combination of Intellect, Hard work and great ideals. I have been in so many groups with you (electives, competitions, RIP, HOP. Long list indeed). In fact you reduced my workload by many multiples be it assignments or competitions. Had many awesome discussions. I liked the the spark in your eyes when you talked about doing good to the society (So genuine). I can go on and on praising you (I can pen down a book ) but well some things are great unsaid. I am sure you will make everyone proud. ATB!! ...SUMANTH J Sneha, I admire the kind of calm and composure you have all the time. The air of confidence around you. Very dedicated towards your work and of course an elegant speaker. These are few out of all the things I appreciate about you and would like to imbibe in myself. You have been a great friend, I could always run up to you for any kind of help and advice. Very jolly person, positive attitude and always smiling! All the best for future and be in touch :) ...SONICA GUPTA Dear Sneha, your elegant personality & serene composure are admirable. I remember i was glum over a silly prank played on me, and you advised me to never let someone else affect my mood & disposition. You are a sweet, mature & wise girl...Have a wonderful life ahead :)...THAKUR ANSHU MANOJ Was lucky to have you in our assignment group in 2nd term. Your presence brought a sense of serenity and also a new perspective. Now everything about you has always been said in above posts. So, i just wish you all the best in life. Keep in touch!! :)...ROHIT KUMAR GUPTA

One of the first guys I met here at campus. Looked to me a complete nerd and lived up to his looks by being the Batch Rank 2 in first term, easily snapping up EBS for Exchange. But beyond those glasses and nerdy persona, is a fun loving person who can be the party animal rocking the bash completely! Extremely intelligent, I am yet to defeat him in Chess; and also this rascal ends up sneaking all my money in Poker at one go! :-/ :P Light hearted & humorous, Udit clearly has a bright future ahead of him. Wish you all the best man. Have fun :)...ISHAN BOSE Yeah, a perfect IITian who knows how to balance work with fun. I still remember the first year when we use to play poker and dance in his room. Studies mein toh phodu hai and ab GS mein machane wala hai ladka. Humble, Social to the core - Udit is one of the few guys who keeps reminding me of those good-old undergrad days and the bakar :) Your future toh I knw ill be awesome as Banking industry cnt ignore your talent :) Will be in touch :D... MAYANK JAIN Before I got to know him well, I always had this impression that Bokaria ji is a super-ghissu/ maggu (Insti rank 2 doesn’t lie :P). Got to know him really well during our eastern europe trip during the exchange program. While my earlier assumption was not completely wrong :P but I saw multiple different sides of him during the trip. Bokaria is a really fun loving guy and is always on the lookout for some adventure, be it partying all night in Budapest or getting high on jagermeister. His sense of humour is admirable and especially his mimicry skills leave one in splits. He became a ladies favourite in Europe with these skills and some ‘other’ skills :P In true ghissu style, he was worried about placement during the Eurotrip but his phodu nature came to the fore and he finally managed to land the best fin job on campus. He will rock in his future career for sure! Best of luck dude!...MRIGANK GUTGUTIA Udit - calm, intelligent and Bakra group mate. One of the first few students to know in campus; All the best for your career...VIGNESH A P I had known u since the first year..though our proper interaction began through SAPM group assignment. I see u as a very down to earth and chilled out person..always in positive excitement and a laughter (not smile :P) You are very mature and hardworking...and still u have a childlike simplicity which is the most appealing part of ur personality. I wish u all the very best for the future ! Keep Touch ! Milte rahenge :) :) :) ...AYUSH AGARWAL Boka as is he fondly called, worked extremely hard for his grades in term 1 !! Someone told me you did it all for getting the DAAD scholarship on exchange! :D But then being an IITian grades dont matter to you, they come naturally! Though we did not interact much in PGP1 (I heard about you as the guy who scored 4.33 in QT1) , exhcange was fun !! Wish we had more parties together! :P all the best for a successful career! cheers...RAHUL YADAV

Staying in the same wing for the past two years, to find UT pensive is like spotting Big Foot in the Scottish wilderness. He is always open to conversations at all times. Full of amusing anecdotes and accounts of recent incidents he narrates with passion - his eyes light up and he caps it with a whole hearted laugh you can only ascribe to him. It has been a thoroughly enjoyable journey in his company and I look forward to the sharing of many such experiences in the future. Thank you for the memories. All the Best! ...SYED ERAJ HASSAN Jab jab tumse baatchit hoti hai, dil khush ho jaata hai. Our competition of “kiski chappal sabse upar lagti hai” will be greatly missed. 2 years of being your neighbour - sabse zyada kuch yaad aaega to wo hai gujju ki milkar maarna. A highly motivated and punctual guy, UT hamari wing ki shaan hai. Apna dhyan rakhna. Nice meeting - Ishansh...Ishansh Niranjan Decency and hard work are the essential qualities of a successful man and these qualities are the most obvious things about you. Bahut bahut achha lagta hai when you laugh your heart out and crack some of the superb jokes.Mast rehna humesha kyunki successful to tum ban hi jaoge ke na ek din. Stay blessed!!! LOADS of LOVE !!!...NAVDEEP SINGH CHAUHAN Our interaction started when we were in the same group in the fourth term and now more recently in the sixth term. Always dressed in smart casuals, Utkarsh is one of those silent, yet brilliant people we had in our section. Assignment sessions really come to life with your subtle and measured humor. A couple of pegs down, you become as much a party animal as the rest of us. More such parties on the cards like the one we had a few days back. Long live Young Monks!...PARTHA PRATIM PANDA one thing i liked most about UT is that he is always with u in hour of need. and the way he recites incidents with a long smile on his face is pleasure to ears. bahut dedicated banda hai and we know his potential. keep going like this but never lose a smile on ur face. ofcourse u dont wanna waste most auspicious gift from nature. so just keep smiling and reach greater heights ...ABHIJEET SINGH UT is the brand ambassador for PSUs :P - meticulous in his manner and attire. he is humorous. A hard working person...It’s good knowing you! ...SAI PRASANNA KUMAR LAVU Got to know Utkarsh during RIP.. very serious looking, no non-sense guy.. but fun to hang out with.. Total Sarkari.. loves samosa and chai and aaram ki naukri :D.. Its very difficult to get a treat out of him.. It was a great achievement to get one treat from him but that was really worth it.. Thanks a lot for those salty mexican memories.. Wish you all the best for the future .. keep in touch :)...Parth Kosada

Nanda ga..! You are the coolest dude I have ever seen. I should thank you for all the support and encouragement you have given to me at Planet-I. Almost all my jovial times at Planet-I was spent being around you. I cherish my first sip of vodka, first puff of cigarette, countless nights of cricket and cards sharing with you. I hope you always find happiness where-ever you are and I wish a great future ahead both in life and career. Cheers..!...AMBATI AVINASH Nanda !! No doubt one of the coolest dude. You cannot find tension around him, even remotely. I will remember your dance steps and imitating others (Profs or friends or girls ..). You have got good talent of catching peculiar mannerisms of others and imitating. I sometimes wonder how can you bowl so fast with so less run-up !!!. I have videos of your cheeky dance steps especially the parties of first year. We cherish all the fun moments of cricket, late night cards in your room, first year parties, gossiping and many memorable moments :) Have a wonderful life and Keep in touch !!...SURESH MALLULA Nandu, Jhandu, (next I won’t write :D). My first year neighbour throughout. Would surely remember your awesome mimicry of Subhram’s cp points in class. And yes, the time spent when you tried guessing hindi movie names in hangman and always lost :p. Wishing you the merriest of times ahead. All the best!...KARANDEV SINGH KAMRA

Got to know you during HOP. One person who stands out. It was fun being around you, with all the sanitizer mania and auto-timer clicks :D One trait of yours I immensely respect is that you speak out your mind (even though it may or may not make sense :p). And yes, you make awesome sandwiches. Keep on dancing, stay happy, and wish you the best for your future :)... KARANDEV SINGH KAMRA I remember seeing you on the second day of joining the campus, the one who rebelled against the morning yoga sessions :P :P you have some very unique characteristics which defines you.. A very vocal person and a feminist ! I have seen you help people around a lot out of your own interest, which is a really good character. A cleanliness freak roaming around with sanitizer and tissue always :D :P Loves travelling and shopping alot and one person who loves doing all that alone ! Also one other characteristic of hers is that she speaks the tam-brahm dialect perfectly (spashtama !) and her everyday tamil can get really complex for ppl who dont understand pure tamil words, coz its so full of it :P Happy to have made friends with you ! will fondly remember all the instances that we spent together in all the outings and assignments and what not :) :) All the Best for a great career and a wonderful life ahead ...SUHASINI G K The first memory goes back to my lasya interview...while everyone else was ripping me off...you were the kindest and most considerate :) I’ve interacted very briefly with Darshana but whenever I met her she was warm, helping and all smiles :D Your kindness reflects at your face and the way you treat everyone is what is so unique about you...It was a pleasure knowing you indeed... my best wishes for future,,,do remember your lasya junior :)...SARTHAK SRIVASTAVA Darshana :)...It was great to see that somebody on campus shared my interest of “Good” music and dance :)....You have also been a great help...be it my summers or the courses (current and the ones planned in the future :) )...you are by far one of the most genuine and sincere ppl I have ever met...I am inspired by that attribute of yours :)...I wish you all the very best from the bottom of my heart and hope that someday we could work together :)...n ya...do stay in touch :)...SANDESH V Excellent dancer, incomparable Glober.:D She has an opinion on everything and you have to accept it if you are to survive. My first reaction after meeting you was: God I want to kill her, and you somehow went on to become one of my best friends on campus. Walks with you were fun, my Kindle was your and DD’s hard-work (at least more than my own contribution). An honest, sincere person who’s committed to her duties and passions. Will go a long way, I’m sure. Stay blessed, stay connected.:) ATB....Vishal Vyas

Chakshu, you have been one of the closest friends I’ve had on campus. Be it something sensible or non-sense, we’ve shared some awesome times. The one thing I’ve really liked about you is your adaptability to situations. If it’s serious, you’re dead straight faced and if it’s fun, no one can beat your witty comments. We’ve had some lows as well but I hope we stay as friends forever. Aur saale ladki mujhse puchke pasand kario. :P \m/...SIDDHARTH MATHUR Hey Vaibhav! You have always been this super cool, funny and friendly Mercur-I guy. Wishing u the best... :) ...ANJALI KRISHNANIVAS CHOWDRY Chakshu, you have a funny way of laughing! :D You are amazing. I still standby what I said - you are the best coordinator in the history of ever! I had such a great time working (or rather not) with you. It was a laugh riot sitting next to you in front row of ‘oh-so-talentedtalent-show’! Keep smiling, keep shining. I really hope that you get all good things in life. I will miss you. :) Loads of love and good wishes for the times ahead. ...NAMRATA LOHAT Chakshu is one of the coolest guys I know on campus! He has a great sense of humour and sometimes, he doesnâ??t even need that..just looking at his expressions is enough! This uncanny talent of his has made many a girl go weak in her knees I am sure :P We have been friends since the very beginning of college probably because of our DCE-NSIT connect. I will miss those great times we spent in Mathurâ??s room playing pabbo and also gossiping in general. He is probably the only person who is less regular than me when it comes to the gym! But I like his optimism :P I really had a great time working with him in a social media marketing competition when were promoting an fb page called bakar-I, and he was oops-I and I was thark-I. :D Fun and gossiping apart, he actually very good at motivating people..I remember the time when I had almost no hope for getting a job in the finals. Thatâ??s when I realized that he can really talk sense at times and his constant motivation kept me optimistic! Wish him all the best for the future. Your career has already gotten off to a great start with ITC, and I hope you continue to excel in the future. Weâ??ll keep in touch, I am sure :)...NITIN VERMA Chakshu.. You can make anyone laugh aloud.. Oh Did I say aloud :P Sorry, no one can beat you in that.. Sometimes I do not see you but I always feel your presence around..guess what I recognise that it is Chakshu laughing :P Jokes apart.. I feel you are really smart, confident and perfect in whatever you do.. always concerned about your looks, a self obsessed guy (I still remember your desperation to ask me & Palak about your rating in looks :P OMG What a kiddo you are) You will just talk about any random stuff bcz you can’t just keep quiet :P Always willing to have fun, chit chat, and laugh.. I really regret that we don’t interact much these days..because time spent with you so much fun for me! You are brilliant and don’t need luck.. But still my good wishes will always be there for you :D Always keep in touch :)...SONAKSHI SAINI

The first guy of college I talked and met. Started deciding our home journeys even before we met :D. Although it happened just a couple of times but I really missed you and Porwal whenever I travelled to home alone. We 3 are together since the day 1, the regularity we maintained for mess, night mess and all. Doing bakar at nights even when there was an end term the next day. Although for us you are like â??ghar ki murgi daal barabarâ?? but I do acknowledge you to be the Fin God. Time and again you prove that to achieve success you need not be a Maggu. Remember the origin of team Scarlet, whatta name, and the first competition of college which we won and you were the actual Guru who guided us to be the Fingurus :P. Wo raat raat and even raat ke baad ujaale ki walks including Porwal too. How crazy we were, just to walk we even went in rains with umbrella in one hand. Our outings to TI, 56, not to forget Naturals, then going bigger to places like Jaam darwaaja and pataalpaani and even bigger to HOP continued strengthening our bond and I am sure that with time this bond will grow even more strong. Lucknow Kanpur to waise hi baaju me hi hai, so dooriyan to kabhi badhni hi nhi. Starting from DB I am sure you will reach to the zenith....PRAKHAR KATIYAR Kahan se start kareinâ?¦ Off-time mein to bakar karte hi hain, class mein bhi ek akshar nahi sunenge and poora time PJs as if competing against one anotherâ?¦ Koi meaningful topic par bhi discussion start hoga, phir bhi within seconds, back to jokes and forget all about the original topicâ?¦ Jokes aside nowâ?¦ You came here with goal in your mind; worked towards it (VC Secy, no Academics), and aptly got DB and I should say here that Deutsche Bank is lucky to have youâ?¦ You are like the Socrates, Aristotle and Plato of financeâ?¦ Back to bakarâ?¦ 1st term poora; me, you, katiyar night mess mein regularly jaana and listening to funny pronunciations of your name by the mess person; patal lok staircase par baithe rehna- those were the good timesâ?¦ Summer Internship wala awesome timeâ?¦ we will be back in Mumbaiâ?¦.. and at last wishing you all the success in lifeâ?¦.. :)...PRAKHAR PORWAL Finally, I get to write a testimonial for you :p There could not have been a better person but you, who I could have met at IIM-I. You have been the greatest support throughout. From VC meetings almost a year back to our campus walks now, from the ‘serious VC related talks’ then to full on time pass now, from the ‘hardly few minutes’ meets to ‘more than an hour long’ meals in the mess, in all this time,I have known you as a much different person than how you might seem to be to most people- Not just a dedicated, hard working, dead serious & super punctual fin guy, but someone who is also very humorous, short tempered (yes, u r :p) and values friendships and relations deeply! From a strict secy to an even more strict brother, there have been so many, like SO MANY moments which I would cherish throughout my life. You have been an inspiration for me (and for many others, I am sure!). A person who has taught me many things, not just finance lessons but valuable life lessons too :D :p (trust me, it is you who has channelized my interest for finance); made me laugh with his not-so-stupid jokes whenever I came to him saying “mujhe sad feel ho raha hai bhaiya”; helped me at each and every stage; gave solutions and strategies for each problem of mine! My life at Planet I wouldn’t have been the same and awesome without you, brother!

Vaibhav - the flag bearer of Kapoor khandaan. Though he isn’t related to the ‘Kapoors of Bollywood’ â?? he is no less talented when it comes to acting. He has impressed many with his power-packed performance during his DU days and continues to entertain us to this day with his BC. Behind the laid back attitude, there is a very strong determination which we got to know when Vaibhav went through the torture known as 60 day 6 pack just to get in shape for the girl he fancied and more recently during placements where his strike rate has been among the best. Kapoor, like a true Punjabi enjoys every moment of life and leads a life of no regrets. All the best for your future and keep smiling!...PARTHA PRATIM PANDA Vaibhav Kapoor! Kapoor khandaan ka vaaris, Honey Singh aficionado and many other things that Iâ??d not mention here :D Supreme epitome of a grand Punjabi, he likes to live it up (the definition of which has changed drastically over these two years :D). I first came to know of him in term 1 as the guy whose only contribution to case analysisâ?? was summary of case facts, only case facts, deal with it! And later I came to know of his superior talents, theatre for one. Pity that denizens of Planet-I never got to see the antics that I did. This guy can certainly cheer one up no matter what. Ultimate chill candidate but his determination to achieve things is something worth noting (read Parthaâ??s testimonial for details :P). And heâ??s a master dancer (DJ nite hero _/\_, guess that comes naturally with the Punjabi genes). You are one of the people who made Planet-I awesome and I hope you do the same everywhere you go. It was my privilege to have known you and we will stay in touch!! Tommy ki jeans mat bhooliyo :D Aur ek baar apni Jaguar mein dilli ghuma diyo :P :D ...JOGA PREETAM We were the wingy for the whole 2 years. We have shared each and every moment of our success and failure along with Rohitesh. Ab thoda iske personality k bare me...he is one of the most creative mind, and has potential to surprise people with his out of box thinking. But these comes only if some tangible benefit is visible to him. He can work very hard if he is sure of some success, but at the same time he is very lethargic if some tangible benefit is not visible to him. Ab inke kalakari k bare me thodi baat kar li jaye: 1) FIrst year, SR11 me 2nd floor pe inhone apni creative mind ka namuna pesh kiya, jab 1 video banane me important role play kiya. 2) 2nd year me inhone B2B ki learning apply karke senior ko v bewkoof bana diya.... But in spite of his creative mind, I will remember him for the moment he used to come to my room at 3 am :P in the morning with a pen drive, because his DC++ has never worked. One of his favourite passtime was to stalk FB profile pic of different girls. All the best for your future and career ahead !!! May you get a chance to join bollywood !!! ...VIKASH KUMAR

As per BETA KA KARTAVYA, I will always be by your side-wrong or right. I will miss our JUGALBANDI CPs and your treats too. FISH main apne haath se bana k khilaunga.. pakka wada hai.. The best part about you is your honest nature and jolly heart, the laughter of a 5 year old child. Always wear it on you. Thanks for all the support and advice, you really helped this crude being of myself into a smooth transition to a B-school graduate. As per MUMMY ki KARTAVYA, you will be needed for future consulting. be happy and my best for your future. Stay in touch. with love, BETA...SANKALPA SARKAR A wonderful person and a great companion to hangout with, I never thought that this girl would be so talkative when I first saw her. She has that endless energy and is always ready and up for anything that comes the way. I would fondly remember all those small hangouts that we had in second year. And yes your those gym sessions where you would give a tough competitions to some of the guys :P Your laughter that breaks out at any moment all this would be missed. You are such a foodie that you stand equal to babu on that. Those eating joints at JAM and poha at poha point all this makes the entire stay at campus memorable for me. Thanks for being a part of my this small journey. Wish you good luck for your future and stay connected :)...TEJINDER KUMAR NEGI

Very helpful and I wont forget how he helped me climbing down the treacherous Bedni mountain slopes when I injured my left knee badly.

Vartika: One of the most studious girl of IIM Indore ;). Hehe. Don’t worry. it’s not necessarily a bad thing. A lot of people can mug but a few can understand :P Especially a quality hard to find in girls. But you really surprised me :D. Not everytime you find a girl who is a real genius :). Anyways, A great friend. I really had a great time with you at IIM Indore. And you are a real life saver. From lending me your notes of Retail Banking to helping me out so much during DB interviews. I would always owe you a big big treat. One thing I found really cute about you was your urge to party and go on every outing and then feeling guilty that you are not studying enough. hehe. Just pulling your leg, something which I always did :). Always be the happy-go-lucky person you are. HSBC main sabki band toh bajane hi wali hai. I don’t think you need luck on your end. A person as hardworking as yours would always succeed :). I hope you always stay in touch. Keep sending those forwards :). One Confession, Whenever I see anything related to Alok Nath it always reminds me of you. (Time to say awwwww :P)....Ishan Rishabh Kansal Vartika....the most studious girl in my section. Our first interaction was during T-Nite rehearsal. Was amazing to see the girl who was topping in every subject and hell....every component could sing Bengali songs so easily once given the instructions.One big thanks to you for reuniting me with some of my old buddies during summer internship. Hope you took the birthday treat from your “chippush” roomie :P. Batana nahi use, toot padegi mujh pe fir. The epitome of “sanskari ladki”, she had one tough time when our assignment group for Retail Banking was the same - laggard that I am. Know that you will rock at HSBC, luck is something you hardly need. It was great sharing the same classroom with you for one year and several electives. Hope that our paths cross again in the future. Cheers!...MAINAK BHOWMIK Initially I used to call you as Vartika 84 (topper you were from NSIT)â?¦ Then I started to know more about you that you are a cool person as wellâ?¦. Kaafi kuch to tumne apne FB statuses se explain kar hi diya hai sabkoâ?¦ Very frank and down-to-earth personâ?¦ Do stay in touchâ?¦ Wishing you all the success in life.. :)...PRAKHAR PORWAL Prof: So could someone summarize the case for me? Vartika (raising her hand): So, the case is set under the context of ....which implies that...the major issues being... and the firm must therefore do... Prof (thinking in his mind): She pretty much told everything I had in mind for the entire class. And the Prof thus started Globing! Most call you studious, however I feel you are more sincere than studious. Be it acads of extra-currics (remember, we were together in the Junior CI team). The best part about Vartika however, according to me, is the way she has transformed herself (though she claims she was always like this). Quite contrary to what I felt earlier, Vartika you are really extremely cool to hang out with and I just hope we had more chances to work together. Wishing you all the success in life!...RUCHIK KIRTI GANDHI

When my friends from the non B-School circuit ask me whether the students in IIMs really have “todu” profiles, there is one example I give invariably - that of Lakra. SRCC, CA, DB and all this with stellar acads, one of the most charming personalities and extremely high level of self-confidence. I was genuinely fortunate to be in his close circles since almost the beginning of the journey at IIM Indore and it has been a highly memorable experience since then. Sometimes I wonder, how complex his personality is - the most perfect dressing sense, extremely polished in communication and yet the most unique and desi style of sense of humor and dance steps! I have absolutely no doubt that you will hear the statement “ tu idhar kya kar raha hein - you are made for bigger things, etc. “ wherever you go. Feel proud to have you as a close friend and waiting for the time when I see you on ET headlines or in an India Today interview. Keep Rocking! ...RUCHIK KIRTI GANDHI I had the â??privilegeâ?? of being seated next to Lakra in first year and we hit it off pretty quickly. One amazing thing about this guy is that heâ??s ready to drop everything and run off to the nearest watering hole, making him an ideal companion to vent your day to day frustrations. On a lighter note, beneath that shady looking exterior is the heart of a gentleman. Being one of 4 CAs in the batch, he thought he was above the rest of us (just kidding) but we cut him down to size pretty quickly. Lakra is one of the funniest people Iâ??ve ever met and almost everything he says has the rest of us BP Boys in splits. He breaks into a dance whenever heâ??s happy and thatâ??s enough to raise all our spirits. Uncle, donâ??t ever be worried about your career as I see you going in no direction but up. Letâ??s use our time in Mumbai in pursuit of â??other thingsâ??. Rock kar denge, rock...ADITYA BALARAMAN Varun Lakra â?? Pompous Harami.. But that what makes you so much fun. There is rarely a dull moment around you and your always the life of a party. One guy who can work through a 100-hour week and still manage to be so much fun â?? I have no idea how you do it. Iâ??m so glad you got everything you deserved at IIM-Indore (well almost as of now) but I still feel you deserve much better. Personally, itâ??s been an absolute pleasure to know you. Youâ??ve been an amazing friend through these two years and I really hope this friendship lasts much longer. ...SHAH SOHAM SAMIR ANJANI Varun â?? My first few thoughts about you- â??very decent boyâ?? .. they are still intact :P but Iâ??d never imagined that you would be such a chiller .. was awesome fun being in the same section and listening to your classic Jayasimha CPs :P.. you can also be intimidating sometimes atleast when you tried teaching finance.. otherwise your companyâ??s too much fun especially RIP.. your famous dance moves and movie dialogues with Soham would always be missed :P.. All the best for your future although we all know you donâ??t need it! ...NIYATI JHUNJHUNWALA

Among the ones, that is the most difficult to write ! I know this guy can do anything for me! :) It is impossible to single out the moments we have had together, the one I am going to miss the most after college, the one whose number is on speed dial ! the one who is the solution to anything and everything, among the only few people who knows every bit of me and understands me to the core. Impossible is not the word in his dictionary, the sessions of planning, estimation, dreaming and of course bitching ! These are going to go right there in my memories forever, and jaise bollywood mein hota hai, I am going to tell our kids, the masti we did and the time that we shared ! :) The most caring, concerned, understanding and emotional best friend I ever had or will ever have ! Do call me in your wedding, and I promise I will get crazy that day. Cheers to all the high points we shared from balcony parties, to late night strolls, to DJ nites, to teasing Pooja and The craziest time ever Goa ! Just a phone call away, forever !...NIKHIL SHARMA Koolwal is the white guy that wears white. Like the KKK. Except, he’s nothing like the KKK. He’s among the calmest people I’ve ever known, and when the nominations for Ashwa coordinator came up, I had no doubts in my mind over who would’ve fit the bill best. I mean if you can remain calm when you’re drunk, you can remain calm in any darn situation, even if it involves a horse on fire. We had great times through 1st year with Ashwa, but I think we got along better in the Senior Team, and it was a pleasure working with you, though I’ll always hate you for having made me ‘THE’ POC. You’re a super personality, great to hang around with, and you’ll do extremely well both socially and professionally. All the best !...BHARATH GANGADHARAN Vatsal is one of the most talented guys I have metâ?¦ we spent long hours discussing random topics from technology to politics and we will share new innovative tech ideas, pages, trendsâ?¦ I have always cherished these momentsâ?¦ Though soft spoken, his words always carry a lot of weightâ?¦ he is very creative and came up with our HOP slogan â?? khatam kare khambe pe khamba chaukhamba.. I really appreciate him and look to learn from him. Rest everything is fine but thoda senti ho jata hai.. take care of yourself buddy and be in touch.. you will always take a special place in my heart (if pooja doesn’t mind it :P).....KHAGESH KAUSHAL Vatsal.......You are on of those guys who I can always trust when I need to rant about things and let off some steam. You stood there listening to crap and never ever complained about it. But bhai tu such bhi bl le, iOS will always be better than android :P. I will always remember the bakchodi we did in Bangalore be it about food be it about ghar & Gaddi. I know you will do good wherever you are. May god bless with you all the good things in life.

Ajinkya was one of the first friends I had in campus, but we slowly drifted apart , maybe because of the difference in maturity levels :D. It was again in the middle of second year that we connected. He might appear like an innocuous school kid but is infact a big bully :D he also takes his role as a grammar Nazi very seriously:D Jokes aside, he is a very good friend, someone who cares a lot for people around him, and he is someone you can always rely on. Do stay in touch :) (though I am pretty sure we will) ...Deepak Talluri If you think you know more people than anybody else on campus, you haven’t met Ajinkya. Easily the most sociable person on campus, he has been one of my dearest friends over the past two years. He is sincere, honest and ever helpful. These are the traits that him the friend who will stand by your side and remain there in the face of all good and bad situations that life may throw up. I wish you the best in life!...SYED ERAJ HASSAN Vekhanda Harami BKL @$%&@!! Only abuse comes to mind when I hear his name for such great kamina friends have booked all your abuses in advance. From a free gaali wielding a$$ #ole to a calm, mature but even bigger AH, one could see a really wonderful change that IIM has brought in him over the two years..One thing that hasn’t changed in him one can say is the his willingness to stand with you in the face of the storm..he will always be there if you need him and this a treasured quality of his..have hung out a lot with him right through the two years(RIP, a highlight) Probably the only person on campus who boasts more than me. :P Plays slightly better AOE than me (which he is admitted that I am fast catching up at the time of writing) :P :P A little underconfident in his abilities but puts in a lot of effort to leave no stone unturned...extremely happy that things worked out for him and he got what was in store with Samsung..hope you go much beyond and get all that you deserve and more..Hope we ll always stay in touch..will always look forward to a few gaalis from you and hope to give back a few more in return :D :D...SHRIKANTH LAXMINARAYAN They say an MBA is most useful when you network with your fellow batch mates. In that sense, you probably gained the most during his two years. You sir, are a lean mean networking machine. I owe a lot to you, but you probably wouldn’t care about any of it, and that is the best thing about you. You wouldn’t care if your friend is able to return the favour or not, you would still help him out with the best of your abilities. You have probably heard this from a lot of people, but never from me, so here it is - Don’t underestimate yourself!! You can accomplish practically anything if you put your heart to it (you cracked the first interview you gave, and more importantly, you cracked AoE!!). I am not the best at staying in touch with people, but I will make sure I stay in touch with you. You were the first real friend I made at IIM I, and one of the reasons I feel I made the right decision by taking IIM I over other offers. . You are a gem of a person man!...SANE NACHIKET SHRIHARI

The guy whom I enjoyed talking with the most on campus. Anyone who knows me would tell you that talking isn’t exactly one of my strong points. But with this fellow, I could talk for hours without realizing the passage of time. He was without a shade of a doubt the nicest person whom I met during the course of my two years here. His exploits in both academics, competitions and beyond proved that nice guys donâ??t always finish last. :) . The fact that he was always so confused between finance, consulting and IT always reminded me of my self. He is a very hardworking and sincere person, but above all he is one of those few who have a genuine thirst for knowledge and donâ??t study only for marks. He is also very humble and never gives himself due credit for his achievements. While, on campus he was always seen in deloitteâ??s â??community is our businessâ?? t-shirt, so much so that I once or twice confused other people who were wearing that shirt with him :P. He had a habit of beginning CP with â??in my previous organization in OB class.â?? He has great potential and a very bright future ahead of himâ?¦...SAURAV GOYAL Venky, Dubs...the nicknames given by me...:) The typical Tambram staying in J-Block and my corridor mate in the first year. Venkat, We spent a good time in knowledge sharing both academic affairs and non academic affairs....If I am the depository of such knowledge then you are one of the main sources of it...:P ....you know what I mean....:P. I enjoyed working with you on various things....when it comes to explaining fin/eco things you are simply the best person I can think of. Even though you had interest in FIN, I kept teasing you that you will get IT role only...sorry....it actually happened...:P. Jokes apart, you as a person is ever helping, polite and cheerful, you saved me in macroeconomics man.....I wish all the best for your future career. Stay in touch ...Cheers !!! Forgot to mention your distinct identity...Your walking style...I have recorded it... : ) ...ANIKET YEVALKAR Venkat, one of the most dependable peole you can ever meet. Worked on numerous assignments with him. Yes, he is bright and talented. Many people are. But what makes him exceptional is his commitment to work and take responsibility. Vey few people have it. Am sure, this will take you miles ahead in your career and personal life. ...ARPIT TANDON Venkat, one of the smartest guys I ve met in campus. Got to interact more in year 2 and I am thankful for tutoring me SAPM. Has a drive and desire to reach great heights which I am sure he will. Wishing you good luck in the times ahead :)...SRINIVAAS G

Hi Venkata, We were in the same group in the last term of PGP-1 and it was great working with you. A helpful and extremely supportive time-member. An ever-smiling person with a very positive attitude. Thanks for speaking in my favour to Sunder Sir during MACR end-term paper checking.Keep up that enthusiasm and positivity. Wish you all the best in life. Best Wishes, Sabornee ...SABORNEE JANA Bobby... from where should i start.. we are the two most vella people on the campus.. :P be it playing cricket with you guys (just batting though) ;), bunking classes just to go out to eat :P... late night movies.. those were fun times that made my stay here at planet-I a more bearable and enjoyable one.. i particularly enjoy introducing you to fine food.. :P even though you have no taste for it! ;) well.. now that we are finally leaving this crappy academic world.. and venture into a more crappy professional world, this leisure and vella time will be the one i will cherish and miss for a long time to time.. and will definitely miss all the ‘gyaan’ that i tried to give you when you made a big fool of me.. jackass!! :P stay like this always.. calm and cool.. a child at heart.. and please never grow up! :P P.S. I am looking forward to exploring the corners of hyderabad with you again.. see ya soon.. ciao.. :)...BYRISETTY SUSHMITHA Though we were in the same section for a year I got to know bobby better when we worked together for farewell and freshers events. A meticulous planner, responsible and friendly guy. A cricket enthusiast. I will miss Your prawn pickle dude :) wishing you all the happiness and success in life...cheers :)...RAJENDRA BABU MELLAM It has taken time to build rapport with u.. But in due time we have become very close. I feel i should have been this close to you right from 1st sem :) The most important thing i’ll miss about u is playing cricket alongside. Rarely people find comfort when another person is playing together. We hit it right from the very first match. We had a amazing time. Especially playing under heavy rain or playing from 9pm to 4am :) We never gave up. One thing I admire about you is the importance you give to your family. I have learnt a lot regarding that aspect. and you are one hell of a chatter box. ammailu better nekanna :D Had great time esp in the night mess, making fun in opp and other classes in 5th and 6th sem. I know I can call u up any day in the future and talk to u as i am doing today. I know u’ll take purvankara to new levels along with NS :D :D Keep up the hardwork. I know u’ll do great in the coming years. Wish you all the very best. and how can i forget our love towards sachin! One thing is for sure, when i play cricket in the future i’ll miss you every single time. Good luck!...YASARAPU VAMSIKRISHNA Bobbyyyy!! :D he is a cool headed, soft spoken, energitic and passionate guy. He is a marathon speaker who would tell stories continuously if you have time. His admiration for cricket (esp. SRT) is unquestionable, I would have been beaten to death in this issue :D. On the other side he is caring and always there to help when needed. Organizer for all our small parties and events at IIM. I see a good leader in him. All the best for your future :)...JAGADEESH PUTTA

Vy dush â?? the super cool admin of LIFE of Planet-I( I guess no one needs explanation here :P). I met you first in Section â?? E during first year of our MBA. We didnâ??t have much interaction for first the few months but we became very good friends during 2nd term of MBA. I would always remember the moments we spent together right from midnight oil that we burned for completing group assignments to various competitions that we participated and won. You are really nice person having a good sense of humour. I would remember you for that one attitude...â??bhai tension nahi hai....ho jayegaâ??. Keep in touch !!!...ANIKET YEVALKAR I can certainly say I am blessed to have a friend like you. The most chillax, smart, creative, and “very well aware of his priorities” kind of guy. One guy I can depend on when I need help. The guy girls loved to hang out with. Every Man’s friend. But for me you are ever very special coz u made me belive on myself, when I had serious doubts whether I really belonged here after my disastrous academic performance in first 2 terms. It was ur pep talks and your help in finance subjects, that helped me do well, and afterwards I only did better. Ur ever chilax attitude about everything was just awesome, even when we were in great troubles sometimes during our group assignments, you were there to offer help. Very talented, you have a great future. I hope you start your business, and I get to join you... :D All the best for your career, and Keep in touch, warna jahan bhi hoga aake marunga tere ko.......SHAUNAK VISHWAKARMA Vidusha, one with the evergreen smile. I guess you would top the list of knowing the most number of people up close (especially the fairer sex :p). Your attitude towards everything is amazing and surely one of your biggest plus points. Though we worked briefly together during marathon but I came to know you as a person during HOP. And without doubt, it was fun. Your ability to bond with people is at a different level altogether. All the best for your future, mate :)...KARANDEV SINGH KAMRA Technically speaking you started helping me way before you knew me (the tree plantation day!) That is the image of you that shall always stay..someone who will help everyone around even if you have to go out of your way for it. I guess your initial impression is always that of a chic magnet but seriously it is incredible how you make just anyone and everyone around you so fond of you. One of the best things about you is the way you make people believe in themselves and always push them to do better. Frankly, I can go on writing about you but I’d rather leave space for you other admirers ;) Have countless great memories with you and I hope we keep adding to that list :D :D...SONIKA KHURANA You have a crazy fan following. Its impossible to walk with you for a distance without half a dozen people waving out. It has been a lot of fun hanging out with you. You can talk about anything under the sun and argue over it. And your wide smile camera expression is outstanding. Wish you the best in life....VRITIKA RAWAL

AP was someone I had first met during FMS interview, little did I expect that we would be joining IIM Indore together :)I could interact with him frequently in the first year as we were in the same floor, but he choose to move away from our block in the 2nd year :D which limited our interactions. I hope he would be successful in the field he wants and I wish him all the best :) ...Deepak Talluri

Vignesh AP!!. Humble, Hardworking and someone who wants to do big. Good in creating apps. Not given clear reason and not known till now why he never locked his door in the first year :). One of the first friends here. When I do not know internet settings, you are the one who helped me. Later we used to chitchat in the evenings and talk about Infy or some random things. He choose to move away from our block in the 2nd year which limited our interactions. Hope our paths meet again sometime. Have a great life buddy. Keep in touch !!!...SURESH MALLULA AP you are as humble as a person can get in this campus. You make it very easy to start a conversation with you. I have had the joy of watching you sleep in the class on many occassions :). What I will remember the most about you is the sudden CP’s that you make out of blue and surprise everyone. I wish you all the very best for a great life ahead :)... Parag Jain Vignesh - This guy should not live in this world. He’s too honest too modest too simple for people around him. Luv him for all he represents. I’ll always remember the conversations we had about having few great friends or many good friends :P Someone everyone needs to have the pleasure of knowing - Vignesh Luv :) :)...Sanjay Yelisetti If there is one person who has made an entry at each and every minute of the lecture it has to be you. An amazing consistency. I admired your dedication to learn swimming. You know what you are up to and also what is it that you want to do. Doing things by choice and not for the sake of it has been one of your greatest assets. Having shared similar interests on a variety of issues, we have seen a lot together. Wishing you the very best and looking forward to see you in a role fitting your aspirations!...Rishabh Trivedi A very soft spoken guy who never loses his cool is how i’ll always remember Vignesh. Most of the time you will have no idea what he is thinking about because he keeps his face completely expressionless. Take care man and have fun....G. KRISHNAN NAIR AP....you were always a constant source of entertainment during our first year. I was really sad that we couldnt be in the same hostel block during the second year. I love how chilled out and calm you are and how that effect passes on to others when they are around you. Chill out and keep in touch. Will miss you. ...DARSHAN.SUBASH

Viggy has been my Sec D immediate neighbour and my team mate in Mridang Spons team. Very serious, hardworking and devoted, this guy would go a long way in whatever he does. Btw he taught me Tamil (All I know is Epadi Iruka?..You dint teach me anything beyond that dude!). We have spent great time together in class (where I would suddenly wake up when he would put a CP, and when he would brief me on cases which I never read, so that I may ans/ make a CP!) as well as outside class, during the Mridang Spons meet (which has always been at his room..PS: I was always on time! :P). He is very talented and devoted. Wish you all the best. Keep in touch! :)’...PARAG PODDAR Our paths first crossed during JBIMS Markshala, and they’ve become quite entwined since then. I have really enjoyed your company in classes, Pinnacle (remember the risk aversion :P) and Mridang. Your innocent smile and responsible attitude make you a complete package. Your CPs are much better than me at times, and so is your dedication towards events you’re committed to. I wish we had more opportunities to hang out after work, but I believe I’ve found a friend who’ll provide me free recharges on his Vodafone network :P.. Stay in touch and keep that smile on :)...APAL Always been good to talk to right from first year in I-block to the time around placom elections where I really hoped he would get in. But really got a chance to know the amazing person that is Vignesh during the second year. My term abroad probably took away some of the opportunity but still placement prep got us close. Love how he is always there for friends and how meticulous and hard working he is. He deserves every bit of what he gets and I will always wish him the very best for his future. Please do stay in touch in whatever ways possible :) ...SHRIKANTH LAXMINARAYAN Such a hardworking, perseverant and intelligent guy. I feel privileged to work alongwith you. You are extremely good in terms of your ideas and the approach to do things. I didn’t know how I would have managed Corporate Relations Team without you. You are on spot and a no nonsense person. You became a good friend during the 2nd year while working for Mridang. Deep down you are a good hearted person ready to help others. You are an amazing person with all the requisite skills to excel in sales and marketing. All the best for future and please contribute towards Mridang from next year :p...Tushar Gupta One of the most sincere, honest, hard working and responsible people I have met over here. I am really glad I was a part of your team, and it was a good experience working for those sponsorship times with you. Especially memorable will be that mail- “ have we ever scolded you guys ....” from you when u tried to appear strict and tough to us. With your dedication am sure you ‘ll do great in ur life. All the best. PS- Next year u’’ll be responsible for sponsorship from Vodafone!!...SANKHA BHATTACHARYA

Aey Dhanush :D. Hehe. I bonded with you over HOP and trust me the trip wouldn’t have been the same with You. I can’t imagine last time I had more fun than I had with you and Prakarsh during the trip. Truckloads of Jokes and Pulling each others leg I loved every moment of it :). It’s sad that we met so late but it’s better late than never. Right? I am hoping to see much much more of you in the future :). Mumbai main masti maarni hai :D. Saath main baith ke thoosenge :P. Prakarsh bhi wahi aane wala hai :P. Anyways, Touch main toh tu rahega. So all the very best for your future. (Bdw.

Lol..but I know that your definition of fun is football, football and football... so keep rocking in life and be as you are.. because you’re an awesome friend :D :)!!!!...NIYATI JHUNJHUNWALA I still remember the “Dara hua sa” guy who I found sitting next to me , thanks to the PGP seating chart though that “Dara hua” part turned out to be a huge misconception. I really had a great time in the lectures in first year with you , when we continuously talked regardless of the faculty/subject; drawing flak from many teachers as well. I really can’t talk freely to many people but I have a great connection with Vikalp. Apart from being a great Footballer :P, I know Vikalp as a great debater and an intellectual with a real good grasp on things;one who reads all the high minded non-fiction books (which I dare not touch :P) . I will miss all the laughs we shared together. Have a great time ahead, I know you will rock in the media. Keep in touch....PRADUMN KUMAR MISHRA Vikalp .. one person jiski leg pull karne bahut maza ata h .. i remember how i used to call u “chidokla” in first yr .. coz u got irritated on very little things.. second yr me i got to know u better .. a very good friend and a genuine person .. always there for supporting friends .. at times i really do not understand the jokes that you and prakarsh crack but i always enjoy your company .. let me tell u honestly i was really impressed by u in TI that day when we were there in the food court( i hope u remember what i am talking abt .. :P).. so happy that you got the industry that you always wanted to work for .. i still remember summer k time pe u told me ki u want to be a part of media industry .. u totally deserve what you have got .. wish you all the happiness and luck in life and hope u soon find a girl appropriate for ur age (hahahha :P :P :P ab to badi ladkion ko chhod de) .. keep in tocuh !!...SHELLY PAREEK

A very helpful and mature friend. Always gives the right advices and always forgives me even when I dont fulfill my promises. A tough guy from outside but a very emotional one from inside. You are one person I am sure I will be in touch with. It was so much fun meeting you during internship and when we couldnt find a place to sit, we sat and talked on the bus stop seats. You are always fun to hand out with and a friend in whom it is easy to confide all the sorrows and secrets. I have disturbed you enough for downloading episodes on DC and yet you never got irritated.

Bihari-babu, you have a heart of gold, well, almost..:D One of my best buddies and a great support during PGP2 and I believe you have been a true friend to most of the people you have known personally. The best part is: we have shared days of disappointment and those of questioning our own abilities. Thankfully, we were both there when the other needed us the most. I believe you finally have a career ahead of you which you like and will enjoy pursuing. Here is to our BIG goal: Wish we meet in Mussoorie soon. I believe we’ll stay connected. Stay blessed. ATB.:)...Vishal Vyas I met Vikash right on the first day here and since then our friendship has only grown in strength. This guy loves Ms. GK to the limit that sheâ??s on his desktop wallpaper! Vikash is someone who always gives you a patient hearing no matter how busy he is. And yes, he is always more than willing to offer you a ride to 56 or any other place to satiate your cravings for good food. He is someone who has braved the placements with his indomitable spirit even when things didnâ??t pan out as expected. A prolific fb stalker by the day and a die-hard lover by the night, he really is a charming and always willing to go the extra mile for the people he cares about.

Bhayya, You are one innocent person I have met in IIM Indore. In no time, You have become a very good friend of mine. You have been extremely introverted and I have been extremely extroverted. But we made great friends. It was just possible because you understood me. You allowed me to be the one I am. You have always been so cheerful. Your are one of the most creative members in our group. Ur boats in boat building exercise, I am jealous of them :P :( :D You always surprise me with your mechanical skills.I don’t know whether you fix them or not!! Thank you so much for making our B’day parties so special. Bhayya, I couldn’t help you at times. I am really sorry about it. I will miss you. I will your love. I will you miss your care. I will miss staring at your tom and jerry fights with Vaishali. Love you a lot bhayya!! ...Deepti Kalikivaya Pandaaaa....saale jaate jaate bhi senti :P....I know we lived extremes in our friendship... on one side we shared our issues and on the other we had huge fights...but all m gonna carry is: this year book and the sketch dat u made only for me :)...in crux I m left with good memories only...It ws pleasure n complex knowing you.....wish u all d good luck n happiness in ur life :)...VAISHALI SHARMA Panda man...the coolest and moodiest of us all.....you know how to take care of people......i have seen that in more than one instance ....you were my neighbour for more than 1 year and I really liked dozing off in class beside you :P . You me and deepu were like the triple threat and had loads of fun first year. Lot of patience, creativity and innocence these are the three things that stand out in many other qualities. I could not find any bad things about you except for you beat me at occasions....I really will cherish all the moments that I had spent you (and the group).....I hope we stay in touch .......and all the best for your future ..........B AVINASH GUPTA Panda!!! Though our direct interactions have been limited, you have always that one sweet friend who is calm but can never go unnoticed. Your attempts to keep others at peace is simply wonderful. All you need is just the personâ??s name for you to become a good friend. You are very very helpful and one can always count on you for anything. You are quite sweet, tough both physically and mentally and always encounter everything with a smile on your face. You are very talented and have lot of interesting sides. You are very composed and I have barely seen anybody who can control their anger in such a suave manner. Can never forget all your gruelling efforts to teach me guitar and how it was all in vain :D You are quite naughty too, your bouts of patience has no bounds. Remember how your room used to be spoiled while celebrating all the birthday parties, half of the mess caused by me. Thanks for always being a part of the fun and life I had in IIM I. All the very best for your future..Loads of love...ANUSHA BEESETTI

Lasting impressions about college : The place that taught me

Hmm.... (P.S. I don’t have your skills of writing so pardon me if the different sentences sound a bit disconnected, but lets see what i can manage). I am blessed to be among your friends on campus. Originally knew you as a person who is always ready with CP but got to know much more about you during Ahvan’12, then those TT matches, then those rounds of cycling and long talks and then again Ahvan’13. I still am not very sure how you managed these many PORs, read all the cases, read a lot of stuff, write articles, win competitions and still managed to post on FB almost every hour. You really have an aye for detail and want everything to be perfect, be it a simple mail or the arrangements during Ahvan or the assignments. Ahvan would not have been possible without you. I really appreciate the way you support members of your team and your friends. Respect! Just one advice- give yourself a break from the burden of expectations that you carry. Enjoy a bit more and learn not to take everything seriously! It’s been great to know you and work with you. I know we will stay in touch. Best of Luck!!...ROHIT KUMAR GUPTA Vyaaasss!!! So where should i start? Your dogged perseverance in trying to concentrate on what the QT Prof is teaching, when the rest of us (Jajoo, Gholu, Lele, Bala & me) are notoriously cracking our back-bencher jokes...or your DCP (Dedicated ya Desperate CP, giving you the benefit of Doubt :P) when we would threaten to ostracize you from our row! Our Sec C back-bench experience would have been soooo incomplete without you! QT topper, CAT 99.99 scorer, McKinsey essay writer, numerous cash-prizes winner and future (crorepati) ITC employee...Bhai, aapko Roadies salute! The world has seen your diligent work in IIC & Ahvan Ops..hats off to your never-say-die fighter spirit! What i have personally seen and known, you are a simple, down-to-earth person who believes in working hard to earn what rightfully belongs to him. You are an innocent child at heart. Glad to have known you so closely...May you be bestowed with all the success that you deserve :)...THAKUR ANSHU MANOJ Vishal ji is one of the most hard working people of IIM Indore. He might look like a kid but the things he’s capable of, hats off. A very simple, unassuming fellow on the outset, he’s a real talent. One of the few people who you could talk with for hours together on topics ranging from social issues to the institute to politics to people, and wouldn’t get tired of.. His work ethic is something I respect a lot, and when he takes up a task, you could bet your bottom dollar that it would be done! He also happens to be one of the very few who evolved over the two years on campus rather than holding on to his beliefs. All the best for your future, and I hope our paths cross again someday :)...KIRAN RADHAKRISHNAN

Vishnu, a fun guy to be around with. Any time spent with him is not without fun and masti. We interacted during Industrial Visit to Sayaji, and instantly became friends, not because we had things in common, but because you can’t dislike this guy-he is everyone’s friend. Always wanted not to come to IV visits, but we always managed to somehow pull him with us. Most chillax guy. Plus he,sankalpa and Kumara-three guys u can always find on FB news feeds making FB an interesting place. Foodie to the core. Only guy to have got international stint. Don’t bring our bhabhi from Nigeria though. But do bring some dollars for us.... Wish u all the success in life... Keep in touch... :D...SHAUNAK VISHWAKARMA A guy you can rely upon times of need. Being the dorm rep, he had the responsibility of controlling me during my drinking escapades :P Whenever I knocked on your room for the “trivialest” of reasons you always had time for me. Hats off to your creativity skills at places everyone knows. One of the most chillaxed Johnny, and perhaps the only guy with a foreign placement, wishing you a successful life. Do invite us for an African safari with a hot South African girl :P Remain cheerful and stay in touch :)...MAINAK BHOWMIK See that big, hairy audacious creature in the pic here, dressed like an Indian king?? That’s Mahabali of IIM Indore, Vishnu.:D A fun loving guy, he was the life of all section parties and DJ nights. I don’t remember a day when I have seen him tense, though he’s sort of ‘liquid’ when it comes to anger/happiness. I don’t think there’s one person in PGP’14 at IIM Indore who doesn’t know him, such was his network. Sincerely speaking, fun-loving guy, who will keep the environ light, wherever he’ll go. For now, he’s going to Nigeria..:D May God bless you mate. Do well in life.:) Stay connected....Vishal Vyas Vishnu â?? the typical Mallu. Took the responsibility of J Block early on, and ensured all the logistics were in proper place before all the events and parties. Would often meet me during the first year at night mess, having Chicken Biryani. And then we eventually ended up with the same internship company, even though at different locations (and the effed up company policy ensured we had no chance for a PPI/PPO) :D :-/ Always comes across as a caring and helpful friend, his comments on Facebook are often witty and can burst you into splits. Wish you all the success in life :)...ISHAN BOSE Ah Vishnu, ur humungous eating skills have always impressed me..I wonder y that is the first thing I wrote...do u? :D.. One of the very few people to call me ‘chechi’...that did make me feel mature :D...U were always happy n carefree..ultimate coolness.. N u passed it on to everyone around u..Keep up the spirits n stay in touch :)...LAKSHMI R You are a super fun guy and I had real fun with you all the while during our IV. Although, I hate to say it that the group always relied on me to make you come down for each of the visits :P Always remain the same. Do contribute more to our GDP. And keep in touch :)...

I love capital markets and will make a career out of that love now. ;) Most Memorable CP : Marketing Research class- I said that what if we look at Mahabharata from Kauravas point of view and try to explain things. Pandavas would hv hard time explaining things they did. PORs on campus : Deputy Fund Manager, Voyage Capital Ideal endorser for : ITC Cigarette Brand ;) One song you symbolize : One song you symbolize : Frequently uttered lines : Everything is Relative 10 years from now you will be : Owner of an Asset Management Company If not MBA then : Stock Trader Favourite spot on campus : Roshan Anand’s Room Friend groups on campus : Roshan, Nishant, Tambe, Ashwani, Sridevi, Vaibhav, Kanchana, Shobhna, Poker Group, Sutta Group First crush in the institute : Lasting impressions about college : PGPO, Classroom setting, J-Block playground, View from B-215 window Lasting impressions about college :

Popularly known as BABA, vivek is one of the most well known personalities on campus. A market enthusiast, opportunist, cp master and an entrepreneur (business run from his hostel room :P) . Ishliye toh sab logo ko baba se kuch na kuch kaam padta hai. Fortunately or unfortunately (still undecided on that :P), I had the privilege of being seated next to him for the whole of first year.There was’t a single class when he would keep quiet but when there is a quiz, he would ask me for help...kabhi kuch padh ke nahi aata. Irritating me during the class was his fav past time or as he puts it,” the only means to remain awake.” For me, Baba has been one of the prime examples who disprove the theory of first impressions being the last.Over the last two years I have discovered the helping, caring and emotional side of him behind this mask of the opportunist. Undoubtedly, he has been one of my best friends in this institute ( not trying to compete with ur italain friend :P ). Life would take you places. Good Luck for your future endevaours :) aur shaadi mein zaroor bulana ... :P ...SHOBHNA SHRUTI Baba. The first guy I met at campus (whom I did not know beforehand). Had the privilege to be his neighbor over the period of 2 years here. An inherently positive person, Baba is the first one you can expect to take initiative; be it Johnny Premier League or Poker tournament or J Block party. A keen investor, he tried to include me in his investment initiative upfront, but I was too lazy an ass perhaps to learn and contribute :P His keen eye for investment made him take up the fag selling business, making the area outside our rooms the Sutta Point of IIM Indore. And many a time I would be really mad about it because 4AM in the morning people would be knocking on my door asking for fag (thanks to you and Murmu, both my neighbors into the business) :D But that apart, you have really been a kind and helpful guy to bump into in case of any help needed whatsoever. Also, the fame of your blog had a rub-off effect on my blog as being one of the first followers of your blog, many who visited your blog would end up visiting mine as well (the reason for its fame being a different story altogether). Keep in touch Baba, it was really nice to share the wing for 2 years! :)...ISHAN BOSE “Krishna Kanhaiyaa” of IIM Indore, Vivek Thebaria a very sharp and astute person I have known. We became friends a year ago and have such wonderful time. Masti with friends, celebrating occasions, watching Ruppee fall :-), making profits among lots of others were the best times of my life. You are a very good friend and a guide for me. I learnt a lot of things from you ranging from life to stock markets.You were active, popular and most outspoken person in our campus. The image of Krishna kanhiyya suited you because of your cleverness,decision making ability with a pinch of ‘nathkhat ness’.You are a very loyal person and most dependable.I consider you as a Stock Maestro and with the amount of knowledge you have I believe it is difficult for anyone to compete with you in IIMI.. Thanks for the being a great friend and I wish you a wonderful time ahead. ...TAMBE ABHIJIT DINESH

the best senior i know in IIM Indore..be it fun or work ..you have troubled me a lot :D..i can never forget what u did in hollywood squares (drummers and drumsticks :P)..we shared a great bond and were always there fr help..Thnankyou and all the best :) #MARICO...PALLAVI GUPTA He has got to be the best Mentor amongst all the PGP2s - evidence- my brilliantly worded resume. Extremely helpful and very patient, I had literally made him go through all my summer forms! Very hard working and extremely inspiring- I haven’t told him this, but back then after all our iteration sessions, I used to be like totally geared up to even pull an allnighter for work ;) Total marketing fundoo!! And I guess a major reason behind me liking the subject :) Crazy about food, especially chicken - if anything is left and you are worried you cant finish it, then don’t because all you have to do is tell him and he ll wipe your plate clean! Very stingy though - still waiting for my treat :P Speaks horrible hindi that makes us all laugh. I’m glad I got to know a brilliant person as him and I hope we remain in contact even after graduation :)...SAMPANNA PARHI I am at a dire dearth of words in describing my two years with you. You are one person on campus who I have fought with the maximum and I take pride in that fact because I have learnt the most because of those arguments/discussions/squabbles/call it whatever. Nonetheless, these fights have led to an immensely strong friendship so much so that I canâ??t even imagine how life would have been on campus without you. When you are around, I just blabber whatever comes to my mind, good or bad, without thinking even once. I am at my most child-like behaviour when I am with you. Be it competitions, my panic attacks or just random stuff, you put up with all my crap (and I put up with yours :P). Your clarity of thought, perseverance, need for perfection and an insatiable appetite for learning is what I adore the most about you apart from a million other things. You are a friend who I know will be there for me, no matter what. Needless to say, you are a gem of a person and I feel blessed to have a friend like you....SWATI VERMA I have told this to many people but never you: On this campus, I think you are the most truthful and honest person. Entire first term, I was simply in awe of you. I failed to understand how someone could be so passionate about so many things and still find time to excel at all those activities. You are the best at almost everything that you take up: Sports, Assignments, Committee work, Snooker and the list goes on. I look up to you to and only wish that one day I will also be as multi-talented as you. You also have been extremely generous and helpful. I remember you teaching me some OM concept just before an end term though you had already taught the same to zillion other people. I have always seen you very smiling and chirpy. I want you to be the same always. Trust me, you are perfect. There is no scope of improvement ï??...PARASRAMPURIA ASHISH MAHESH

I don’t need to say anything about this guy. Few defining moments when I realized how awesome he is: 1)Tata Crucible 2013- He was more depressed than me when I couldn’t win it despite leading till the last round. Didn’t even participate, but spent the entire day cheering me up 2) 6th term, I was down with a stomach upset. Went to see a doctor. Every half an hour, this guy was there enquiring about my test results and doctor’s advice, even though he himself had hundreds of other tensions in his life(placements included) Rahul bhai, when you were away for 3 months on exchange, I felt like this college is not the same place. In fact, the only reason why I have the present friend circle is you. You were the common link. Amazing man manager, god level trader( Voyage fucking gives 15 % returns. rahul bhai makes 2000% in one day- you have to see it to believe it). If you think I am joking, this guy has a house, a honda city and no educational loan to boast of. If he wants, he can be the next rakesh Jhunjhunwala. But, even Rakesh jhunjhunwala would not have brought smiles to so many faces on a daily basis, the way he does it. And, at the end of the way, even when we are long gone, this is what will matter... Rahul bhai, I will miss you...ARINDAM PAUL Yo Yo Rahul Bhai.. I block and the song Balma :P.. thats how it started (i am sure the term will end with Baby Doll :P). Its because of you that we are a great group today. A group which has extreme stortillays but your composure has always been the key to get us all together. Kuch bhi kaam hota hai.. toh aapko hi short deta hun. Munich (Octoberfest), Vienna (almost every weekend), Prague (pub crawl ke shots) and amsterdam ke 2 trips (especially the joke that never ended :D).. Eurotrip was a definitely a “Golden time” (only the two of us will get this one :D). I have never expressed this (because I thought it wasn’t needed at any point of time) but I do have a lot of respect for you. You keep saying that ek reason toh hai jiske karan yaad rakhoge (you know what I am talking about).. but there are a lot of reasons jiske liye yaad karunga. I know we will be in touch. If not then will ping you on the day when Yo Yo comes out with a new track :D Cheers! ...RAHUL NAGDEV RB, You know what the happiest day of my life was in IIMI? The day you returned from Bhopal as a VP :D You always were and will remain one of my best friends.You are one of the most caring friends I have ever had the fortune of having. I remember how this time, during the Final Placements, I had to report early morning to the venue one day. I hadn’t specifically asked you or anyone else, knowing that everyone is as busy as I am with placements. But you still woke me up early morning so that I would be able to report on time. This is, for me, the essence of Rahul bhai- the guy who is always there for his friends! Another time, I remember I just knocked on your door early morning after a night-out and dropped dead tired in your room, asking you to wake me up before my class. So thank you for being my alarm clock.I guess there are very few people whom I take for granted so much, just dropping in unannounced and expecting a favor. As someone else mentioned as well, “koi bhi kaam ho, short aapko hideta hu bhai” Ok, now with all that emotional sap out of the way, you are in a lot of ways the heart of our group of shortileys. Not to mention the official host of many partys as well as the official DJ :P Seriously, I need your playlist :/ Bas, this has stretched on for quite some length now, so abhi “short” kar deta hu. VP se Prez banne ke tym treat dena :P Touch me toh rehenge hi, through Whatsapp, Fb and others. And keep being the great guy you are! Wish you all the best, bhai! :)...SOUVIK SINHA ROY

A really fun person to be with, he doesn’t mind no matter how much you pull his leg. Most of our “encounters” are best kept as Johnnys secret; not disclosing them here.

wat should i say. aniket is great friend. he is always there for me, smiling all the time and most importantly he always has melody toffee in his room, which was also the reason i visited his room more than often. the most hilarious thing about him is the way he hypothesized small medical symptoms into big medical conditions. like cold will become pneumonia. etc etc hehehe though he always make excuses, but to our surprise he actually came with me and shaunak to philosophy centre. it was always fun to walk past the night street of iim indore flooded with night lamps while chilly winds from north helped us feel the essence of nature. u will always be remembered for ur pathetic PJs. which were actually good sometimes. hehehe. ...ABHIJEET SINGH Thakur Saab!!! You will always be remembered for your PJ’s and how you would always praise others, when you yourself have achieved so much on campus. During Ahvan, you always praised people for clearing first round of any competition, but never told that you were finalist in 6-7 and winner in 2 or 3!!! A true friend, talking to you was always awesome!! Hope you have a great future, in life and in career!!...BAPAT ABHISHEK VISHWAS My ek-saal-ka neighbour....a big thank you for keeping me out of many of my bad habits. A down-to-earth and disciplined guy, you have been a great help whenever I needed you. ...MAINAK BHOWMIK Yewalkar..a happy go lucky guy..u wil ALWAYS hv fun wen hes around..cheerful..dnt remember exactly hw I gt to knw him bt cudnt believe dat he had 3 yrs of work-ex bcz wen u talk to him, he actually doesnâ??t luk lyk typical IT work-ex guys (including me).. :D v hv worked together many a times n believe me u wil b amazed wid his ppt making skills..a true IT person at heart n in d campus as well.. a vry dear friend of mine ï?? vry helpful in nature..u dnt even hv to ask him fr dat..lucky to hav a friend lyk u n I mean it.!! Hope this friendship goes stronger n stronger..Best wishes fr ur future..contact madhe rahuch.. :)... ABHISHEK N MAHAJAN Yevalkar (Jevalkar)..1 of the good friends I have made in IIM. I have seen this guy on and off in campus, but I really became a fan of his during HoP. He is the sweetest guy on campus with an ever existing smile on his face. Hard working he is, be it on acads or some random competition he is participating in day and night. Your pathetic attempts at mocking bongs made me laugh all through HoP. Not to mention your Siren and “Mere room mein mithai hai” mails.. Always be the simple soul you are. We will be in contact for a long long time to come.....Rajarshi Biswas

An honest admission - for about 10 days after we first spoke, I thought u were Shelly and Shelly was Zonobia ! :P Happens !! The fact that I am sharing this trivia, despite that we are not ‘close friends’ as such; shows that you are a person good at heart with whom others are always comfortable. Do live up to this spirit !! I wish you and your husband a very happy and prosperous life !! (P.S. This is my first post in the Yearbook ! :) ) ...AYUSH AGARWAL

Zono, (Adele of our college), sweet, charming girl. Though, we interacted only very late, perhaps 5th term or so through common friends, but it was always a pleasure talking to you. And can’t forget your Biryani, awesome, hope I get a chance again to taste that superb biryani and chicken dish. Good luck in life ahead !!...ARPIT TANDON Zon!! Extremely talented,smart and cheerful,I can safely say that you are the voice of IIM Indore..I will not forget your Rolling in the deep :) I feel sorry for all the poor souls who built some hopes on you without knowing the fact that you are married :P Enough of flattering(I am not good in this :p).. On a serious note,you are one of the few whom I could always see with a smile..keep smiling Zon..You and Navin make a great couple..Wish you both a very happy life together..Just dont forget me..keep in touch :) ...RIZWAN MOHAMMED P A Zono!!! The first thing anyone can clearly notice in her, is her pleasant smile. On a fine day, people in my hostel suddenly started playing ‘Rolling in the Deep’ multiple times on full volume and this continued for quite sometime. After a while I came to know that someone called Zonobia had sung it. I became a fan of ur voice when I saw the footprints video. It was very difficult to spot u as u always maintained a very low profile inspite of being popular :P. From the very little interactions we had, I can say that u r a very down-toearth person, very talented, friendly, brave (the way u attended B2B classes inspite of the prof asking not to), light-hearted etc. Thanks for the wonderful biryani and hope I would taste it more in tvm :D! Wish u all the success in future and a happy prosperous life with Navin! ...PRABHU KIRAN ANUGARI Superb singing talent! :D Yeah that had to be said :P You’ve been a really great listener whenever I had a chance to talk to you (away from the limelight and innumerable friends :P) Just recently came to know that you’re a mean pianist as well... Sooper-dooper talented aren’t ya? :P :D Btw I’m typing this after just having missed another one of your performances! :P Well, some things just shouldn’t change, what say? :) There’s a lot more that I can say here but I’ll hold back :P I know you’re thinking when have I ever eh? Hehehehe :) Cheers! All the best :)...Avinash Chidambar

Thankyou for being a lovely neighbour and best wishes for your future :)...JYOTHI GARG I have not seen a girl so cute and innocent like you . Had great time together in the campus and HOP :)...DEBJANI DEY Hey, one of the most reticent people in our block, although I think that you have become a *bit* more outgoing ever since we came here. People might be misled by your shyness, but we know that you are a stud at rappelling ;). wish you the best and hope you do something wild and crazy (and un-Himaja-like) in the near future!...SHREYA TANDON Hey, I had a great time sitting beside you in the 1st year. I was usually in a sulky mood for most of the time in those initial days and having a patient listener like you there to hear my rants was the best i could’ve hoped for. We never had a class together in the second year (one of the only regrets i’ll have for not taking any marketing elective :P ), but did get to spend some time together during HOP where we took turns in trying to avoid the camera :D . Will remember the way you speak Hindi (you have an adorable accent) and your salt addiction. Wishing you a great life ahead and stay in touch!!...ANUJA BHARGAVA Hey, it was a pleasure working with you in the Ahvan C&D Team. You possess great talent & creativity, and are an awesome team player...Wishing you a wonderful life ahead. Keep smiling always :) ...THAKUR ANSHU MANOJ Himaja, from answering in just binary to leading long chat sessions, you changed a lot from what you were like when I first met you. You came across as super-reserved and very calm initially but I later realized how creative, talkative and bubbly you can get when you are comfortable. It is difficult to scare people away even with cute looks, and you do just that :P Would miss the missed-call dinner calls, long chats, your innocence and expressions. Time to get more active on Facebook, Himaja. You can no longer peep into otherâ??s accounts for the common updates. :P Wishing you a great career and awesome life ahead.:)...

Wasn’t it?. I have always seen you smiling and laughing and that’s something great thing about you :). The small small but numerous outings we had, Meals (especially breakfast) at Dosa point, Sitting in my room talking about random things, watching stupid videos.. trust me, I have enjoyed each and every moment spent with you. I really wish you a great future ahead :) Do stay in touch :D....Ishan Rishabh Kansal Sumita, a total party lover ladki. Always ready for masti, be it shopping, be it dinner or just hang out with group. She is very helpful person and also accompany us in all the parties :D.

It is nice to know you, have a great future ahead and always stay in touch. â?º...PRAKHAR KATIYAR Kitna dance karti hai re tu!! I have know so many parties where I entered with Sumita, danced, got tired, returned to my room, got hungry and came to find Sumita only to see her still dancing! and does she dance, Ooh la la :P I believe she is very strong, not only mentally but when she shows her anger then Shakespeare ka quote yaad dila deti hai, Hell hath no fury like a woman!! Yikes She is a total SHOULD person. I can bet anyone if you can have an entire conversation with her without her SHOULDing you around :P Its awesome to get her worried, itna majja aata hai expect when you are trying to scare her with ghosts. One of the bravest girls though, from a I-Hate-Horror-movies to Chal-na-ekhorror-movie-dekhte-hain :D I miss spending time with, even if that meant dodging water bottles :P. I have seen you overcome fear [ Finance -2nd term] like no other and I wish you all the strength to overcome all the obstacles that life may have for you - including having the Briyani I am about to cook for you :P...VIDUSH ARYA Sumi! Our “frandship” is beyond testimonials (is liye i won’t put much effort in yours. just kidding!). Always game for new experiences; the 3km run in Indore marathon where we were both gunning for gold, but let other people win ;), the DJ parties, the beer company ka competition for which we were wondering whether to go to delhi or notâ?¦ Thank you for putting up with my eccentricity (which you probably didn’t, but then you didn’t have much choice because i won’t change :P). Teri kahaniya, jo shuru hone se pehle problems me aa jati hain. ;). Tera gyaan from life’s experiences :P. Teri understanding of human behavior :P. Tu unique piece hai. Don’t let temporary setbacks get to you! Wish you the best for life!...SHREYA TANDON

Hey, not sure if you’ll get it or not (Pun intended :P), so I’ll keep it short. My neighbor in the class for the first year and close friend for 2 years. Mr. Marketing. Hope you become a prof. soon. And please don’t fail a person just because his parents gave him an awesome name. :P Keep in touch man. ...NAVTEJ VERMA

It was pleasure learning management lessons from you sir, in class and out of class.:) I still remember that email you sent to the section with some course material, which had the section in amazement as to how a professional email is written: a true reflection of your vast experience. You are an inspiration in more ways than one: to start a fresh in a new line of career when you have a family to take care of, is easy only when written in books. You have chosen that path and have proudly justified that for the last 2 years. I’m very sure you’ll be a great professor of the subject, if you plan to take that career path.:) Stay connected sir, will be my pleasure to interact. ATB. Thanks for making IIM Indore memorable and inspiring for all of us. ...Vishal Vyas

I came to IIM Indore with Marketing in Mind. In future if I have to blame for the twist in the tale, It’s gonna be you. You taught me finance so well that I fell in love with it!! Thank you so much Vinod.. I just couldn’t have figured out that I am finance person without your help. You have become my mother at times on campus taking great care of me. It only got better Priyanka, vini and Shreya moved in here. I had such a wonderful time with vini and shreya.. Revisited childhood with Play- Dohs. The treats couldn’t have been better than they were at your place! I will definitely miss your home. Hope I stay back with you as your third daughter :( :(...Deepti Kalikivaya Vinod ji, ye chota page kam hein aapke baare mein bataane ke liye. If anybody is the linchpin of our group, that would be you. Because most of our get-to gethers used to happend in your home only. You were always the respectable head for both your family and our group. Thanks to you, I have learnt a lot of things, how to ease pressure off my shoulders and so much gyan..Before you, I was not aware of the term PJ and in how many different forms they can be.. But you are the ultimate symbol for PJs and Sir, I can never say how creative and funny you can get with your PJs. The best part is that one cannot help smiling after listening to your PJ. It is quite amazing to see how you are always interested to help you friends and even people who you do not know much. I can never ever forget you and your family, how you have been always with us through thick and thin. I enjoyed our group’s hangouts, the delicoius dinners and mini-meals I had at your plce and above all your gyan session. You have achieved great heights in your career already,But if there is anything you would want to achieve, I wish you the best for you too. ......ANUSHA BEESETTI

Students Activity Council Executive Committee When I decided to stand for this post, I had no idea what would lie ahead. Honestly speaking this has been the most enriching experience in my entire life. This journey has had its share of highs and lows, and I guess I had the honour of being at the centre of it all. Working with a talented bunch of guys in the SACEC was a memorable experience and I believe that all of us have done a commendable job. Getting the SAC registered as a separate legal entity with autonomous control, paving the way for numerous things down the road was a game changing moment and I believe it will bring in a lot positive changes down the road amongst other things. I take this opportunity to thank all of those in the SACEC for their commitment and dedication to make all of our lives a better place in our small little planet. Wishing every fellow PGP-2 a successful career ahead and the new SACEC all the best for the bumpy ride ahead. -Harkirat Singh SAC Coordinator, 2013-14

It feels like it has just been a few days since we became CRs. The first year has been a wonderful journey, right from the Talent Night, to the section parties, to the various times we got the exams and assignments postponed to the very last day, when we proudly posed for the section pics! From being class reps to senior members was no doubt a challenge. Bidding of electives will always be the biggest challenge we faced! (Term 3 re-bidding will always be remembered: P). We experimented with the clash timetable, conducted various workshops for junior and seniors in the second year. The present Junior Committee have been an amazing set of teammates and we wish them all best as they step into our shoes. We all will surely miss being a part of the Committee! - Eshwar MS Secretary, Academic Affairs Committee

This year marks a new chapter in the history of IIM Indore Alumni network with active participation of alumni in contributing to the institute and fellow alumni through discussions on social media, events, visits to campus and suggestions over mail. And, behind this success was a fun team with great chemistry and coordination. Team Alumcom, made a lot of memories, to last a lifetime! Rendezvous with a lot of drama behind the scenes, Delhi Chapter launch guided by an enthusiastic and motivated bunch of alumni, the great success of Footprints’13 and a lot more!! - Alok Ganesh Hegde Secretary, Alumni Committee

CulCom is all about Sharing Happiness “It is good to have an end to journey toward; but it is the journey that matters, in the end” This quote seems incredibly apt considering our journey as the senior members of CulCom which began on the 25th of January 2013. The entire expedition has been a roller-coaster ride apart from being a learning experience. Infact some of the very imperative lessons of life have come from being a part of the council. Whether it has been working in a team, decision making, time or resource management, ability to face criticism, etc.; working in the council has taught it all. The last one year has seen CulCom reach greater heights with a number of fun-filled events being introduced this year. The year began with Saraswati Puja which was performed with a lot of devotion, followed by Pyar ka Matka conducted on the Valentine’s Day which was a huge hit with the masses. Next in line was Au Revoir, farewell to PGP 2s, which was the most challenging event because of its large magnitude. However, it was executed successfully due to the hard work & dedication put in by each & every council member. Then there was another event Monsoon Day Out - a day’s trip to the Mandu fort which made a successful debut this year. Last but not the least in the basket of new events was the Masquerade party and the floating of sky lanterns during the New Year which received an overwhelming response from the student community. This reinforced the fact that Planet-Ians work hard, but party harder. Besides the new events, the conventional ones were revamped with a tadka of excitement. The council stood as one well-knit family during the ups & downs. Everyone toiled passionately to attain new heights & reinstate our motto ‘We share happiness’ in the true sense. CulCom has tried its best to establish a home away from home for the student community. The events conducted by CulCom would be cherished by all throughout their lives. We are sure that CulCom holds a special place in the lives of all the students and continues to be the most loved committee on campus.

“The Members of our committee (Aakash | Abhishek | Ankit | Debjani | Deboprio | Harish | Kaushlendra | Prashant | Sanjeev | Ankit | Neha | Nilay | Vikash | Vinay | Viplove ) so far have been and shall continue to be successful in persuading the authorities to approve a whole lot of projects aimed to benefit the student community in ways unimaginable. To name a few, projects such as Reverse Osmosis Water Purification Plants, Wi-Fi enabled internet services, three new food joints (stalls being installed), LAN printing facility (currently in approval stage), post/courier room delivery services via third party, outbound DTDC courier services (to be started by Mar ’14) are crown jewels of our work”. -Kumar Abhishek Secretary, Infrastructure Committee

As soon as I was done with the first batch meet at IIM Indore, I was sure that Media & PR Committee is the one which I wanted to be in. Looking back over the last 2 years, it certainly seems like I had made the right choice, and I’m sure every other member would share the same feeling. We were lucky enough to have a great bunch as seniors who always believed in the motto ‘Work hard, party harder’, and thus were we the student body with the most number of parties. I had the opportunity to work with Kavya and Apal, two awesome people who I missed having in the senior committee. I am glad I was selected as the secretary, and was ably backed by some of the best minds on campus. Anand, Mainak and Monami have always been people who never let me or the committee down, and the success of our endeavors are down to them, while I sat back and took all the credit :P We tried doing something new in our time, such as organizing events, growing big on Social Media including reaching the Final 5 of Google Plus competition. I am happy to leave this place with an equally good team in place for the next committee, if not better and hope that we continue to be a big part of the institute’s success story. - Kiran V R Secretary, Media & PR Committee

“Football is like life - it requires perserverance, self-denial, hard work, sacrifice, dedication and respect for authority”, said the old American football player Vince Lombardi. However, this is equally true for any other sport as for football. And on the other hand, no one probably values these life skills more than we budding managers struggling with our assignments and case studies. But the nice part is that sports makes learning all these skills a little more fun, and that’s what we, at SportsCom, help to do! Well, sports at IIM-I are not just about events and tournaments, it’s the daily play and fitness as well. SportsCom ensures that all students have adequate access to the sports facilities, and utilize them properly. Recent opening of a gymnasium near the student hostels is one such example. Our mission is to provide the best sports facilities and to bring out the best sports talent at IIM I so that the life lessons learnt from sports make us better managers in the upcoming corporate life as well. - Sumit Verma Secretary, Sports Committee

452


The International Student Exchange Committee works towards increasing the global exposure of PGP participants and ensuring smooth transition of foreign students coming to IIM Indore for international student exchange program. In the academic year 2013-14, we could extend our partnership with three new prestigious institutes, namely, Baruch College, City University of New York, USA, Egade Business School, Mexico and The Asian Institute of Management, Philippines. This was an integral step towards the goal of initiating new tie-ups with coveted business schools across the globe and expanding our reach. Apart from conducting French language sessions for the batch and launching a “Buddy Program” to familiarize the incoming foreign students with the campus, a remarkable initiative this year has been the introduction of “Stepcom Portal” that shall enable the PGP participants to make informed choices regarding their exchange institutes. This portal is a result of dedicated efforts by the committee members in terms of extensive documentation and technical processes involved. We hope the committee continues taking innovative steps in order to make IIM Indore an attractive destination for the foreign partners. - Shravan Kumar Potnuru, Secretary, International Student Exchange Committee

The Placement Committee is a student body which handles internship and final placements. Over the past year, we have had the privilege of interacting with three batches of IIM Indore participants. Post getting selected in December 2012, we were helping out with organizing the Final placements for the Batch of 2011-13, conducting the Summer Placements for Batch of 2013-15 and Final Placements for our Batch of 2012-14. It has been a wonderful experience for all of us in Placom working for the batch. The expectations that come along with this POR are huge – each participant trusts us with securing good opportunities across domains, sectors and job profiles. Right from resume iteration to getting the offer letters we look at what is best for the batch and work around making that happen. On the corporate front, there are aspects such as following up with companies, inviting them to campus for guest talks and organizing corporate competitions along with placements for 900 participants. The placement introduction sessions, pre-placement talks, day 0s are times which all of us in the Committee will remember very fondly. We cherish the friendships we have made with everybody in the batch and look forward to keeping in touch post graduation. Nothing would have been possible without the encouragement and support we have received from Bhavya Ma’am, Sonali Ma’am and Sadh Sir. They have been there to help us out throughout the year. We owe whatever we have been able to accomplish thanks to their guidance. - Chandan Nikhil Secretary, Placement Committee

Industry Interaction Cell was established in January’13 with its focus on improving the students’ industry readiness. In the inaugural year, the cell facilitated frequent & enhanced industry interaction (with business conclave& guest lectures)&made efforts to equip the students with skills expected by the industry (with across-the-calendar live projects & workshops).Some of the highlights of IIC’s contribution are: IIM Indore’s first-ever business conclave: The annual business conclave- Colloquium is IIM Indore’s attempt at inviting thoughtleader professionals & scholars to share the stage & enlighten the student community with developments in business world &trends to look for in future.In August’13, IIM Indore proudly welcomed some of the well-known personalities from the domains of Venture Capital, Private Equity & Entrepreneurship to our inaugural conclave managed by IIC, on the theme: “Shaping Successful Business Ventures of Tomorrow”. The event, comprising of an intense panel discussion &enlightening guest talks marked the impressive first edition of Colloquium. Guest Talks by prominent personalities: With guest talks, we tried to provide an opportunity- outside of classroom, for our fellow participantsto listen to the experiences & thoughts of today’s successful business leaders &managers & be exposed to the practical side of management- something we believe is essential to make education complete. IIC has in the past & continues to engage with leaders, managers&scholars alike- to enlighten participants with their words of wisdom. Skill-building workshops: Workshops as knowledge-in-a-nutshell &a toolkit of skills helpedthe batch with the edge they needed to succeed in business world. IIC, in association with participants, faculty & professionals facilitated knowledge delivery in such sessions organized through the year. Live Projects: IIC helped the students collaborate with different industries to try to solve business problems with their own prior experience & knowledge acquired at IIM Indore. As the coordinating body, we facilitated allocation of projects & their timely delivery following IIM Indore’s standards of quality. TEDxIIMIndore: The founding team of IIC secured TEDx license for the campus for the first time this year. The new team will be organizing IIM Indore’s first TEDx event in March’14. The initiative will hopefully pave way for a much better visibility for the campus and enhanced relations with industries and scholars.

“Consulting Club in 2013-14 had a huge focus on getting quality live projects apart from organizing national and campus level events, coming up with industry reports and white papers. The year was highly successful for the club with projects ranging from the top consulting firms to those from Indian Business Giants, Start-ups and SMEs. Start-Up Consulting as a separate division also took birth and various live projects for budding start-ups were completed. Also, following the trend of the last couple of years, Consult Clinic - the SME Consulting arm took up various live projects for the SMEs in and around Indore apart from organizing the national level event and the first and only of its kind offering real time live consulting - NeetiShastra. Yet, the most exciting phase of the year was the launch of the Analytics Division which right at the start conducted a sponsored National Level Event - Analitique� - Ruchik Gandhi Secretary, Consulting Club

Currenc-I the Economics and International business Club of IIM Indore, promotes discussions and learning in economics through events (such as Roundtable economics,TheBudge,etc) , Facebook groups and webpages, newsletters, guest lectures,workshops, knowledge sessions and preparatory materials. Not only does the club connects the world happenings to the participants of IIM Indore, it also reaches a wider audience by events such as Foresight, a forex trading event which attracts participation from major B-schools. Our members also ensure to give a fun twist to learning by involving participants in events such as Ecohunt and Pic-o-nomics. - M V Varun, Secretary, Currenc-I

457


Much like how every Business plan is first preceded by a detailed planning phase, this year E-Cell too has been involved in much more planning than execution. We have set a strong foundation for the budding entrepreneurs by tying up with NEN and Mumbai Angels. We have laid the base for setting up an incubation center on campus in next two years. We are scouting multiple other organizations to support our objectives. All this for a more ‘entrepreneurial’ future. On the execution front, we revamped our very own JAM with new interiors and exteriors and a product portfolio that can better serve the community in this ‘non-mess’ era. We extended our reach to the academic blocks by serving students and staff during breaks through our extended counter. Over all it was a great learning experience for the team. We have enjoyed the challenges and tried to put a proper structure for the working of the committee in future. - Sumit Swarnkar Secretary, Entrepreneurship Cell

458


My two years in the club have been fun-filled, enriching and challenging. It has been a great experience right from my first year, working with Sonakshi, Hitesh, Natasha, Nitish, Varun and the seniors. Becoming the secretary of the club in the second year took the experience to the next level.

Here’s to the Equit-I brand. Cheers! - Ajitesh Mehta Secretary, Equit-I

Humain-I, a start-up in every sense, working for this club was as fun as playing Russian Roulette with a couple of your friends. Stepping into uncharted territory with almost all the activities that the club did, the journey was both thrilling and exciting. And in the end, it was a huge learning experience. All that can be said is, we were a bunch a misfits who ran the club with all our heart and soul and hoped that we could add value to the citizens of IIM Indore in more than one ways. -JayantKujur Secretary, Humain-I

I take extreme pride to see VC making enormous progress this year. Enticing our investors with good returns, conducting knowledge sessions to help everyone learn beyond the clichÊs of classroom, holding several events and getting bulk deals only convey what we did for starters. Working consistently for five days a week, we are seen as one of the most serious club here. For me, it all began in August 2012 when I got into the junior team. Since then, VC has been the only thing I have concentrated on for the rest of my MBA. Yeah, ONLY!! VC has the second largest team size among clubs/committees. Work is enormous and hence, managing a team of 18 was really challenging. But I was extremely lucky to have a bunch of passionate colleagues who made my life easier. Our work was recognized, when we hit the headlines in DNA. We launched our website this year to keep you abreast with what’s happening in the markets and what is VC cooking for our investors. I wish the best to the forthcoming senior team to take things forward in a more efficient manner.

Debating Society The members of the debating society of IIM Indore huddled around the embers of the bonfire late into the cold damp night, arguing over why no one ever opened mails from DebSoc! We just couldn’t understand how a club whose members had slogged the year round (relatively at least) be relegated to such a fringe of the PGP student’s mind? We recounted the events of the year one by one, toasting our cold numb hands beside the fading fire; Argueonomics, the first debating event for PGP 1’s had a pretty decent turnout. That was followed by a pretty successful Mock GD series for the PGP1 summer placements in coordination with the numerous HR, Strategy and Financefaculties. Then there was JAM@JAM! Sure! We had to drag participants to their plastic chairs outside Jam and shove a mike in their face for them to start talking but the last round was pretty entertaining and we had a good audience throughout. Then there was the doozy! Mock GD’s for the PGP 2 final placements. That was a nightmare to schedule curving around a complex web of restriction from classes, faculty schedules and placement activities, but we pulled it off pretty well, even got in a GD chaired by the new director! And now we end the season with hooked and booked, beside a bonfire, in the cold evening with faculty and student judges! What went wrong!? They continued arguing, diverging and debating in equal measures late into the morning of the next day...

Only into its 2nd year since inception, Toastmasters Club at IIM Indore started the year by opening itself to the IPM participants as well. Then came the enthusiastic members from the new PGP batch and before we knew it, we were held a roster with more than 80 actives on it. Given the exponential rise, we members meet twice every week and the sessions soon included more than just speeches from members. Apart from the usual routine of members taking up leadership and evaluative roles during the session, we innovated. We hailed in democracy in the form of selecting the ‘Speaker of the day’. We then spiced up things further by having theme based impromptu speeches with some interesting themes like Sales pitches, Travel, Famous speeches, Sex etc.Hell we even threw our own Halloween party! Our club did a pretty good job in the City level contest competing with all the rest of the Toastmaster Clubs of Indore in September and we even sent one of our own to represent us at the zonal level contest held in Mumbai. So all in all we did had a lot of fun and a lot of sessions this past year!

Yem Bee Yay was started with the hope of bringing the much needed humour to the otherwise mundane lives of B-School participants. A brainchild of IIM Indore, YBY aimed at circumventing the restrictions on freedom of speech by using satire as the medium of communication, and by protecting the identity of the current team. This is the second year that YBY was in operation, with Kiran, Senajit and Shrikanth taking over from the previous campus team and founders – Amit, Arshad and Rohit. Kiran, having served the first team ably (is a member of YBY since PGP1) came with a lot of experience and a nose for satire. Of course, it would not have been as much of a success as it had been last year, had it not been for the support of Vishnu and Kumar Abhishek with the promotion and Sankalpa with his inputs early on. Over the year, the reach of the facebook page more than doubled. Also, Team YBY launched a website to take the activities beyond FB. The most important aspect for YBY was to feel the target audience’s pulse, and this was evident in two very successful posts – Comparison of PGP1 and PGP2 by Senajit and the Hitler reacts to CAT results by Kiran. The baton has been passed on to able people from the next batch who will continue to thrill everyone with their wit and humour, while the previous teams will continue to provide support from outside. YBY is soon becoming the one-stop destination for satire on B-school admissions and life in and beyond B-schools. For more information, visit fb.com/yembeeyay.

“From amidst a riot of colours and hues of celebrations, emerges a marketing success story.” Utsaha is one of the most awaited fests on campus, year-on-year. One starts laying the foundation of the fest being fully aware of the anticipation, expectations and the exciting frenzy surrounding this gala event. Utsaha – The Rural Marketing fest from IIM Indore has set a precedent in creating innovative market research programs in the rural areas of Indore for several years, focusing on understanding the dynamics of consumer buying behaviour in untapped semi-urban and rural markets. A success story created by the studentsduring the Kartik Purnima mela every year, in the Janapav-Kutti village in Indore, Utsaha attracts a footfall of nearly 50,000 people over two days. This year, the plan was to make it bigger and better. The highly efficient Projects Team comprising of Bharath, Rohini, Pooja and Siddharth started work from Day One, scouting for exciting projects for the IIMI junta to work on. The hard work paid off, with national brands like Hindustan Unilever, PepsiCo., Airtel, Britannia, Yellow Diamonds and Shakti Pumps associating with us. This year was also a first of sorts, with PepsiCo. using the Utsaha platform to conduct a professional biking event to complement the Rural Activation that was going on in the stalls. The Operations Team comprising of Muraleedharan, Sandeep, Vishnu OB, Saurav, Ashwinmanaged to secure a prime site in the Kartik Poornima Mela, right next to the wildly popular Ferris Wheel which helped us increase the number of people visiting the stalls manifold. It was due to the effort that they put in that the entire fest achieved a much grander scale this year. The Events Team, headed by Ankita and Siddharth Singhal used this opportunity to put their creative minds at work and came up with ingenious games and event stalls that attracted both the public AND Team Utsaha! The Media and Marketing Team comprising of Monami, Swati and Vishal pulled off another first. Utsaha had the 1st exclusive Media partnership with i9 Media and Rural Connect. With a new channel, Utsaha reached more corporates and more readers. The Creatives& DigitalTeamcomprising of Stephen, Ashish, Deepti, Jagadeesh created the fantastic Utsaha T-shirt design and also add the festivity and colour to the stalls with the décor making them more attractive. They made the festival a myriad of colours and added the dazzle to it. The Financial Coordinator Prajeesh ensured we could all get what we wanted and that we get into a surplus with his organized working and efficient disbursal of money. The experience has been enriching due to the enthusiasm, hard work and perseverance of each and every member of the team. I would like to thank our team for helping me accomplish the mammoth task of successfully conducting Utsaha ’13 and being the reason for one of the most beautiful things to have happened to me at IIM Indore.

Evinced by the stressful life of MBA, music and dance seem to be the best tranquilizer and add as the best remedy. IIM Indore organizes these DJ parties on special occasions at the campus. The kick of DJ parties is made during Bakra, amidst bits of paper and spring of water. It is the first point when juniors get mingled with the seniors and derive fun from the fervor. When you get over with your exams and are lazy to go to the city to make a move, DJ party becomes the spot of hanging out. Amidst the traditional Ghaghras and sticks Garba music becomes the theme of DJ party. You jump you get lost into the music, get photographs clicked, thereby weaving beautiful memories of the stay at IIM Indore. DJ party is always a part of the stay, whether it is to bid adieu to the seniors during Au Revoir or the foreign exchange participants, DJ party is one thing for which one waits anxiously. Bhangra beats, Jazz, hip opmay need be the dance forms you need to be accustomed to. You need not have a dancing partner as well. Just move your body and you will find several friends to chill out with. Among the many things at IIM Indore, DJ party shall surely be missed.

Himalayan Outbound Programme – this unique course was started in 2010 wherein on trial basis, 30 students were initially sent to Nainital post which it was made part of Curriculum. It is believed that hard skills like quantitative techniques and strategic management can be taught in the confines of the classroom, but the teachings that real life challenges present are unparalleled in shaping an individual. The PGP 2 students were split into 4 groups. 3 groups were sent to India’s best altitude treks – BedniBugyal, DayaraBugyal, Kedarkantha around which in every direction are great Himalayan snow capped peaks and 1 group was sent to the exotic meadows of Nanital. This program was organized by Integrated Development Lab and India Hikes and was conducted by Captain JV Avadhanulu (retd). The experience is an admixture of tasks for execution and fun activities. It is a game of strategy, guile, courage and endurance. Activities range from rock-climbing, rappelling, river rafting, paragliding, scrambling, river crossing, bouldering, yoga, pranayama – Yes! They did it all. Some learn to overcome their fear of height and narrow spaces whereas some get in touch with their spiritual side, all in all the program shapes and develops the future Managers to face challenges, bond in a team, stay rooted to the problem in hand and live in the moment! All in all it was a week that will be etched in the minds of all the future Managers of IIM Indore.

All the participants coming to IIM Indore would have never in their wildest dreams thought of making a stay in the straw house or travelling to the core of the districts to judge and experience government policies. A thing that seemed to be a compulsion when it was ordered came out to be a band of pleasant memories that we could wreath together. Rural Immersion Program the journey to explore, enjoy and develop. Organized during the second semester the memories of RIP are crafted. The 8 day mandatory stay becomes a journey of lifetime. You come to know about a different aspect of management altogether. The photo beside the tube well, or on the tractor become a celebration. Day long trips and data study and night time picnic with friends. Meeting people, knowing their problems all come as nostalgia when someone reminisces about these events.
