He speaks his mind, he is practical and doesn't believe in uselessly following trend without

Also, his sense of humour, often compared to Nana Patekar, is unique and enthralling. What I
have never understood is why he always asks the syllabus for any quiz or exam two days in ad-

vance, before anyone else does, but always starts studying late. Kyun puchta hai? Don't ever
talk bullshit to Girish in a public forum, you can expect some honest and straight forward re-

request her to smile please. Even though we became good friends a bit late, but it was really

fan, a smart individual and a simple girl who can win hearts through her words.. As I start
counting my days at XIMB now, I feel there are still some great moments that I am building
up with FAME assignments messing up in your room. It was really a great time partying with
you & Sukanya at Green chilly restaurant and wondering about your love for American-corn
and pets..I am still enjoying the time we are spending going back and forth with the same tedi-
ous stuff, discussing with each other...Stay connected and do keep smiling alwayzzz..:) -

The best female baddy player of our section, best baddy partner, has a calm demeanor. It was
evident in the baddy match against Subashree that she has a peculiar way of channeling her
anger & putting it to the right use. You don’t see her talking much, speaks very slowly but a lot
of things is going on in her mind. She is very serious abt her studies, seems to be focused. On

Chennai which you will not listen to. Jokes apart, I can't imagine how life at XIMB would have
been without you because you have always been there. And its not really about those numerous
good moments – the food outings, trips, beer sessions. Yes, these will always be cherished but
what makes you a special friend is the fact that you really trust and respect me and share every-
thing with me. Perhaps that's also the reason why you probably know more about me than any-
one else here. It will be understatement to say that you shall be missed. But don't worry, teri
shaadi ke lie time nikaal loonga, provided you give me 90 days notice of your marriage. -

My first friend on campus with whom there was an instant click. This girl is always high on en-

like and how you strive for them. I will miss all the crazy things we have done in these two

years specially our shared love for Salman khan. Love you piduuu...
-Neha Gupta
Megha, affectionately called as Pandey and my friendship with her started in the later part of

the first year and we have cemented the relation since then. I have always enjoyed her company
whenever possible and found much joy in sharing my experiences and stories. I find her excite-
ment to know new things very inspiring. Sometimes the discussions become unusually long

As Pandey says, we are twins cause we look similar. I am not sure if I agree or not but I do like
that nickname. Pandey is one of my youngest friends on campus. But for her age, I do admire
her flexibility, adaptiveness and independence. Pandey is one happy go lucky person. She takes
things with ease as they come. Zyada load leke koi faeda nahin – Pandey firmly believes in this
mantra. And when the load seems to get more, Pandey likes to balance it with a dose of highly
recommended Old Monk. Pandey also leads a somewhat disciplined life, may it be not missing
the morning class after the party or hitting her favourite place in CP while at home while we
rest are still waking up. And the fact that she is pretty straightforward, genuine, and original
means that no one ever expects anything suprisingly nasty from Pandey in any situation. Ex-
cept some completely non spicy food whenever you go out to eat with her because she just
can't handle anything hot. Add some more spice to you life Pandey, aur thoda mirch masala
khaa. Baaki I guess you'll do just fine once you finally kick start your professional life. All the
best Pandey! Milte rahenge (starting with Delhi this summer).
-Swagat Acharya
You’re a master friend (like a master key) - you fit in everywhere and, are that adjusting and
adorable. Whether it’s for tea in the morning, a chatty mood or xwalk time (although I hardly
take any), I can always count on you. The spice-intolerant cutie and worshipper of the monk,
you’ll be missed. You’re such a kid and yet so mature. It’s always a pleasure to hang out with

you. “Chill karna hai, bas” is your patent dialogue. The jaan of every JLT, SRK lover and war-
time shows addict, Megha like you’d say- YOU ARE AWESOME! Keep up that carefree yet
caring attitude. I’ll miss you my neighbor. :*

He is one of the few dedicated persons I have known on campus. Most of us freak out when
the placement gets delayed, but he has the quality to handle the tough times with his calm de-
meanor. His consistently positive attitude is infectious and inspiring. He is also an underrated

PJ expert and can produce witty PJs out of the blue. He has a raging competitive fire and can
be seen in the effort he puts on winning the competition. He is a deserving winner and if I can
duplicate his hard work in my career, success is only a formality. I have no doubt that I will re-

ceive more benefits from my associations with him than he will from me. I wish him continued
good health and success in all the future endeavors.

I remember when we first met - when she came to me in the stats class asking for some doubt
and after our first meeting something in me knew that we are going to be friends. She is very

competitive and gives her everything to do well, be it studies or sports. She is a good person to
have in your assignment groups, does all her work with a lot of sincerity and dedication. We
had to stand against many ppl to form our so called “self-formed” group but after working in

those groups I feel all those altercations with the section ppl were totally worth it. She has a lot
of good qualities but one thing which is best is that she is a no-tantrum girl which is a rare
trait to find among girls now-a-days (no offence to anyone).

She is a lot like me, thinks like me and knows what I am thinking even without me uttering
anything, hope we stay in touch even when college gets over.

they are the most rational ones.

Though majoring in Finance (& CFA-2 aspirant) he is a core member of Maxim and is always
ready to fight with me over the relevance of all the events organized by his committee. He car-
ries a calm and patient demeanor most of the times and also can be said as being an intelligent
person (somewhat :P). Finance comes naturally to him and he has helped me in finance sub-

jects many times. We had shared a lot of good memories in these two years especially in 2nd
year, playing TT (me being his disciple :) ) & Lawn Tennis (where I tried to hopefully returned
the favor), studying together in most of the subjects, working together for assignments & com-

petitions, and what not.
One parting advice from my side to him will be that being intelligent is nice but success fol-
lows those who work hard (though some may argue, obviously), one has to drop his/her lazi-

ness and be sincere and show dedication at times.
Best of luck in the future and hope that our friendship is for lifetime.

The first memory that comes to my mind when I start writing this is that Xpressions'14 night
post JLT( you know why). He is one of the first few guys I met in the campus. you are one per-
son I can count on always. I know that I can call you anytime ..my go to person when I am in

trouble. XIMB would have been incomplete without you. He is someone who I could always
count on to wake me up for classes in 2nd year. Someone who is dedicated towards his aca-
demics, CFA and manages MAXIM work really well. Thanks for being an awesome friend. We
both are heading to Chennai so we will have some awesome parties there as well. Wishing you
tons of success ahead. Cheers.
- Satyajit Pattnaik
The finance expert is the go to guy for many poor souls. Also as the Maxim Treasurer he has

put in a lot of effort to take the committee to new heights. It was an enriching experience
working with him on various projects especially the HRM video project that got us 20/20. I
have also had an amazing time playing TT with him to destress from the daily ordeal. Wish

you keep cracking stuff like CFA and have a successful life ahead buddy...!!!
- Mohit Jain
One of the best person I have met in my life right from Day 1 of our XIMB life. I still feel you

should have been relocated to the room right in front of your room in Cenderet hostel.. Would
have saved a soul.. :D .. Your dedication towards books and finance magazines(responsible for
the name i call you:BISRI) is truly amazing.. I guess that is the reason you are loaded with the

pin point bullets of financial knowledge.. And ya u love RAIPUR undoubtedly :P.. Keep it up
Bro!.. Cheers! Have a great life ahead!

We have many things in common, but our love for food definitely tops the list. Always ready
for a party/outing, he was the organizer-in-chief for all of Sec-A outings. He is the Go-To
Person in case of any issue, more often than not he has a solution to the problem. He is like
an elder to me, who doesn't shy away from scolding you one-bit. He is fiercely competitive

about everything he does and hence aptly also known as the ' Team Lead'.

Though I'd not known you through out the first year, had spent most of my time with you

Builder" would not have been a success :P You always try to be perfect in all the fields that
matter to you and mostly succeed. Your perseverance level is off my limit. You have always
been patient enough to bear my ramblings and many cases it helped me clear my head and
see through it. A lot of times I don't get your actions which leads to my bursting out. Sorry
for that though. Hate your n number of thanks on every little occasion. The best trip of
mine here in XIMB was the one to Lonavala. Would always remember that valley; the most
