Dracula and Bhoot
Here is a post that will be best appreciated by Hindi speaking folks. Here goes the story:
I had an interview scheduled for the McCombs MBA program in Austin, Texas. The day before my interview/class visit, I was flipping through their brochure when I came across this photograph of a professor.

Noticing the two protruding molar teeth in the photograph, my friend exclaimed 'Dracula!'

We laughed while I continued flipping the pages. A moment later I found this photograph of a student named 'Bhoot Singh' ('Bhoot' means 'Ghost' in Hindi). I showed it to my friend and we laughed our hearts out.

Now comes the best part: the tryst of the apparitions - Dracula and Bhoot!
On the day of my interview cum class visit, I was amazed to find that I had been escorted to the class of Mr. Mahajan itself. But before I could take my seat, I couldn't believe my luck when I saw Mr. Singh sitting right next to me! I couldn't help but stifle my laugh all through the class.

It was quite a funny day. But jokes apart, Mr. Mahajan was quite a professor. Mr. Singh, on the other hand, had a M.S.Dhoni look from the side (with a cap, that is).

PS: M.S. Dhoni was my batchmate during school days. People say we even might have played cricket together (I don't remember a thing). Alas, he is still playing cricket, while I grew up!
PPS: Mr Mahajan/Mr Singh, if you ever see this blog please take it in a buoyant mood. It was just another funny moment in my life and you happened to be the source.
