Rendezvous with Rahul Dravid

Posted by Ved Mohan On 1 June 2009 No Commented

This Sunday was the closing ceremony of the my summer cricket camp at The Nimritha J. Arun Kumar Cricket Academy located on Sarjapur Road.

The ceremony was held at the Rainbow Drive Club house next to the Wipro Campus in Sarjapur.

Guess who was the chief guest? None other than “The Wall”, yes Rahul Dravid (childhood buddy of J Arun Kumar).

Welcome Rahul Dravid

All the kids including me got a chance to get Rahul’s autograph. My friends (Daksh and Dhananjay) and I decided to get his autograph on our cricket bats.

My First Dance Performance

Posted by Ved Mohan On 30 September 2007 No Commented

Yes! I spent some time learning dance moves so that I could perform with my friends on the occasion of Ganesh Chaturthi at a function organized by my apartment complex.

It was so much fun, initially I was hesitant about dance lessons (having never done it before) but soon enough was convinced to go through the practice session. What made it more fun was that my friends were also participating.
