Bharat Bhasin ---my friend from MSVV 1982 - 1995

"Words will not express my grief on the loss of Bharat. Bharat & I were friends since we were in junior school at Modern School, Vasant Vihar - New Delhi. We travelled every morning and aftrenoon in the same school bus for 10 years. Humble and polite - always willing to give up a seat and stand so that others cud sit thru the ride. Every now and then play pranks on fellow bus mates....intelligent and witty - very quick on the uptake, a genius.

Last I bumped into him at Hyderabad airport when he was coming to join ISB -- it was a pleasent surprise to meet a Delhi friend at Hyd airport -- meeting was short but we connected instantly -- the bond was always there!!!

Last friday nite (Jul 22nd, 2005) 2:30am EST ... came the shocking news ....left me shattered....putting everything in perspective - that LIFE is so uncertain, taking away Bharat from us - leaving this void -- but connecting us all in his memory --- his body left us - but the soul is doing it's duty - as Bharat was always a leader he continues to be ONE for us in our hearts forever !! Miss U Bharat !!!"
