everything was awesome... like a fairytale... with candles everywhere and first class service... great food and superb hosts... beautiful clothes... awesome cars... the saris... the clothes... the most wonderful jewellery.... n best of all the elegance... (i have attended n number of rich peoples weddings but most of them r a gaudy show of money n status)... this one was different... but this wasn't what actually impressed me... this was nothing compared to the 2 people i saw there... let me tell u about them.. ofcoz most of u know them... no no... not most of you... i guess all of you...
let me start with mr azim premji... the chairperson of wipro... if i hadn't looked closely id have missed him... a thorough gentleman i must say... he was talking to someone there... but the radiance he emitted was awesome... not a hint of pride this man has got... he had a wonderful aura about him... and the thing that impressed me the most was that he would smile at nyone who would pass by him... for a person who is on the forbes list and is among the richest men in the world he showed an unusual kind of modesty... very impressive...the next one was even more impressive... mr anil ambani... do i even have to introduce him??... when i saw him there i was totally zapped... there he was in a normal chudidar kurta when 90% of the men were in suits... he was talking to all guests as if this was his own family wedding (my relative is a director of his company)... there werent any visible bodyguards around... again for someone who practically runs the economy n stock markets of this country this is really shocking... i was looking all around for his bodyguards... looking for subtle clues to know who they could be... but i didnt make out ny... n i am sure if i had the guts to go n talk to him he'd surely have said a hi... :)))... one thing i like about him is his discipline... the amount of weight he has lost is astounding... he didnt eat nything i guess... (for a gujju person who once loved to eat n eat this is surely commendable)...
i had once read his interview... n he said that he woke up at 5 am everyday n started his day with a brisk walk and exercise... again knowing how tight his schedule must b n how many late nights he must b having this is simply admirable... the man is truly a winner all the way... thumbs up to u mr ambani... it was nice meeting u... i m glad i made it for this reception... i didnt really want to go coz i didnt know nyone there... n if i remember clearly i almost didn't go!!!
laterzzzz all...

To tell u the truth, I have most of the qualities you hv admired.
I get up at 5 am, I exercise inspite of my tight schedule, I am modest, simple......lekin saala..will u tell me M00nie if I will be as rich? :P
talldarkman
yes...to be well-known, rich AND SIMPLE, is a rare combination.
Keshi.
Woohoo!! Pretty impressive, gal!! Usually rich people have their heads up in the clouds and treat everyone else around them like garbage. So its nice when someone comes along and breaks that illusion.
simplicity alwez catches pplz attention :)
its cool certain ppl dun let things get to their head...and still remain down to earth.
cliche

m000nie new posttttttttttt!
Keshi.
strayed to your blog after a long time. read the latest one...about page 3 wedding/reception....
aankhien chundhiyaan si jati hain chakachaundh se....
kucch kehne se pehle mauka to diya hota aankhon ko roshni ki aadat padne ki....
about premji smiling at everyone who paased him by... actually itz easy to smile at everyone when you know that everyone knows you well and most of the ppl. are in awe of u... takes a lot greater courage to smile at people when u are not sure whether they know u or not, what do they think of u and if ur. smiling at strangers wud be interpreted as modesty or insanity...
and mr.ambani in churidar&kurtas while most others in suits... isn't it just another manifestation of the desire to stand out from the crowd? i suppose it takes real courage to merge in the crowd and still retain your own individuality....
any way these may be true for most of people but may be not for azim bhai or mr.ambani-jr. can say this by persoanl exp. as have had personal interaction with at least one of them...tho not a very long one....
btw, next time u go to such places b8r take a camera along so that u don't have to upload those stock photos.. btw, how come no mention of ms.tina? not there? or u overlooked her? maybe coz her persona not upto your expectations?...
n e way itz always a pleasure going thru your blogs. i wish i cud do it more often,
I liked this post. Azim Premji is a level 5 leader with personal humility and professional will as his predominant traits. The aura - hmmm yes that makes him a great personality. Thank you for posting about these wonderful people. Will come back for more. Cheers!
i detest the page 3 kind
and Anil is a sonovabitch
his antics killed Dhirubhai
starting from his wedding to the page 3 bird
Mukesh Ambani and Dhirubhai dont frequent page 3 bashes
did u see PAGE 3, the movie?
