Weekend

I got back yesterday from Chicago. Where I had an absolutely uber time with S at the UIC Durga Pujo. Amongst other things to keep in mind, the UIC Pujo was a student affair, hence no evil ABCD influences. Quite surprisingly, my friend Ani was compering the show.. and he looked like he was at a White House briefing. We were quiz teammates while at Presi. A, old college batchmate turned up. A great time was had by all. Random people popped out of the woodwork and proceeded to become bosom buddies over a couple of smokes. There were some nice performances including a great ensemble of modern music which included Anjan, Suman, Mahiner Ghora Guli and to my delight, Chandrabindoo. Also a wunnerful play with some really

nice light work and fluent performances by all the participants. More will follow.
