Mr. Navin Kshatriya (MD Castrol India)– Oh My God !!! this man is amazing….he is a man filled with goodness and positivity….this man speaks and speaks well and how effectively…I guess, at his office and home, each and every word of his spoken in a day might be meaningful, I suppose…I usually get the opportunity to hear him in the conferences I shoot for the company…and believe me if allowed I would start keeping tapes of his recording to motivate my life…he looks for meaning in every aspect of life…and that’s what makes him a man of a different stature….i thank you sir for what ever I learn from you every now and then…
Mr. Mahesh Bhatt (Director)– I have never met him…I know him through his work on screen and various articles in the media…though I would love meeting him...this man has something special about saying his things….the conviction he shows…the confidence…his vast knowledge….he is just too good…I love to read each and every word of his in the press…once a journalist asked him in an interview “Sir we heard that u have left smoking and drinking?” he answered “yes I have because I relaised if a person has to achieve greater heights he should travel lighter”….thats Mahesh Bhatt an intelligent human being who lives life his way and hates anyone interfering in it too…Thank you sir
Mr. Ramgopal Verma (Director)– I have never met him…I know him through his work on screen and various articles in the media…though I would love meeting him...again a good and sensible talker….like Mahesh Bhatt he too is all dare types…speaks well and speaks sense…I love the confidence which oozes out of him even after a flop…people say a thousand things but he does what he thinks is best for him…total Ramu Ishtyle….Thank you sir
Mr. Mahesh Manjrekar (Director)– one more human being I admire for the talent he possesses…such an intelligent director…few know that he is a good sketch artist too…knows his job…for whatever time I have worked with him, I have just gained and gained and gained and he is one person I have learnt Shot Division from…he applies simple technics in his work and lets the subject talk rather than all the other jugglery….thank you mahesh ji...
Mr.Hari Ayyappan (National Head Special Events- 360 Degrees)– the most understanding human being I have ever met….what I have learnt from is the attitude of “I am hiring you coz you are the best…enough now Gimme results”….and you know the best part about him is the coolness he carries along with him 24*7…I guess that’s what makes him a popular figure amongst his friends and buddies…hey Hari thanxx
Mona Ambegaonkar (Actress)- happens to be a popular actress and my senior from the central school hamla malad…I can never forget her for her conviction during the elocution competitions in school and debates…she would put forth her point so strongly in front of the opponent that the discussion used to end there only and with in no time you heard the winning name Mona Ambegaonkar….i have learnt the art of putting forth your point of view point blank when a discussion is going on….Thx Mona
I also should not leave this opportunity for appoligizing to all these people for any pain I may have caused to them...which was truly unknowingly comitted...While I have thanked all these people I am forced to think that will I be able to match a single positive of them at any point in time...yes comes the reply "I have…I am and I will" and again this is thanks to the strength, the thoughts and the teachings of above mentioned people gives every now and then….
Now that I have shaped my will the rest has to follow....right?
these are the lines I wrote 2 days ago in the afternoon while I was sitting in Hari Ayyappan's car heading for a client meeting and the trance track playing on his deck was actually creating an adrenaline rush in my veins then and there flew the closing lines of this note
Imagine if only knowing the above people is the knowledge of mine which you are reading right now then what and how would it be if I was “LEARNED” !!!
In all I would say all you above mentioned people Have certainly made a difference to my life and I am genuinely praying for this list to increase everyday ;-)
