I didn’t know I would get so many surprises on this day. Iqqu was the first to wish me exactly at 12:00am.As I was just talking to him, I said nobody knows about my birthday here, so no celebrations as such. And suddenly Manya brings a cake fully lit with candles and it all started. Cut the cake, then the cake painting session started. The celebration here was quite decent and not like the one that happened last year in Rochester with special abhishekum(u know what i mean) and lots of bumps..not lots too much bumps.. etc…

And last to call was my chaddi dost Kirrya.. he called up at 11:52pm ..dabba kirrya nanna birthday nenap haarti ..maadteni ..

A nice greeting card given by my roommates. And after that calls and calls from everywhere and online wishes too ;).

And here is only the pic of the surprise gift Shaanya sent me through Fedex and somebody knocked it off our apt front door :( , very bad … hogli bida shaanya.. it happens.. thanks le kalsidakka..

After 4 calls from me and several calls from Shaanya, Fedex were so humble and responsible that they are going to resend the package of the same value to me again, so Shaanya sending me chocolates this time !

This is the last year’s birthday celebration - Birthday @ Rochester

Shaanya dedicated his blog for my birthday and surprisingly wrote a post about me on his blog - Shaanya.com.

Thanks for making this day special.. Nanna Hrudayapurvaka Dhanyavadagalu
