Article 312.


Reliving good times       Article Published in The Gulf Today Uae on 3 August 13 (312).

A few days ago, I was pleased to receive a call from an old friend. The gentleman had retired in June after having spent 35 years in the same insurance company in Dubai; the reason for his present visit to Bangalore was to catch up with his son. Since his son’s home was quite far off from mine, we decided to meet at a mutually convenient place.

My association with him dates back to the time when I landed in Dubai — way back in 1993. I cherish my friendship with the man who came across as one who always wore a cheerful face and was gifted with loads of patience and more importantly, humility.

Other than that, I was keen to revive memories of those times which were much enriched by my friend’s knowledge of old Hindi and Tamil film songs and his willingness to share some of his expertise at underwriting of fire policies.
