My Friends

Dilip: He is my childhood friend with whom I had a long friend ship. He is a very nice, cool and joyful friend. When my father got transfer to Kota, I met him there and we have very good friendship. From there our family moved to Kavali. After many years my father got transfer to Nellore, where I met him again. He is married and settled with some computer software business! He is the guy who showed his would be first to me then to his parents!

P. Padmaja Anupama: She is my BSc and MSc classmate. She is very calm, studious and traditional girl. If you want to know the meaning of an ideal friendship, you should have Anupama as a friend. Many good things to say about her like.. she is very helpful, sensitive, hard working, have lot of patience, religious.. So many things to learn from her! I am in Biotechnology field only because of her.
Only bad thing I can never forgive her is.... She left us very early!!!!! Our elders say good people never live long; she is one among those good people.

Raghavendra: He is a very joyful personality. He never shows much tension about his life! He is my friend since my BSc. We also did our MSc together. I used to go his home almost daily in my BSc. His parents treated me like their own son. I am really grateful to them for the help and affection they showed. Myself and Raghu really enjoyed our education at Visakhapatnam. Now he is working in a Bank at Chennai. I am eagerly waiting for his marriage. I hope this friendship will continue till the end.

Siddarth: He is very calm and joyful guy. He is from Bhuwaneswar. He is my MSc roommate. We really enjoyed roaming around the city and spending time for movies and music. He worked in plant tissue culture at RRL (CSIR) BBSR, now working as Lecturer for BSc students at Bhuwaneswar. He recently married. I like his life style.

Sresty: He is a very cool, hard working and affectionate.
I met him when I am doing my MSc at Visakhapatnam. He was doing PhD that time. After that fortunately I met him at New Delhi. I joined IARI for my PhD work, Sresty joined for his Postdoc in the same lab. He always treats me like his own brother. We had very good day's there at IARI. Later on he moved to University of Kentucky for his Postdoc. Now I got this Postdoc here at Kentucky just with his help.
I am really happy that we are together again!

Vijay: He is very cool and friendly guy. I found many similarities in him with Sresty. He is a Seed Technologist, did his PhD at IARI. He got Gold medal for his PhD. I always spend my leisure time in his room rather going to my room. We have very similar thoughts about life and philosophy. I really enjoyed his friendship. Now he is working as seed technologist in Vibha seeds, Hyderabad. He is getting married this year (2006). I hope he will have a very nice future.

Linga: He is very friendly and joyful person. I had very good relation with him and his wife before I left India. He helped me a lot in finishing my PhD and while packing up to USA. He is the person whom my parents know very well from my friend circle. He did his PhD in Plant Physiology and currently working as Biotechnologist in Vibha seeds. His wife Usha Rani is very friendly and cooperative person. She is hard working too! I really enjoyed food in his home. I found a lot of enthusiasm in him to work on molecular biology and for publications. He definitely have good career in his research field. Usha recently delivered a Baby boy.
