There are a few things which i remember vividly about dadu,one, his interest in geography.When he would come to keyatala(our house)he would gather round me,shubho and soma and ask us various questions on geography.One which i remember is,name the five rivers of russia whose names start with a 'D'.He made it a point to ask this question quite a few times,but we could only name three or four at the most.
Another thing i remember about him are the parties at his appartment.Me & shubho were shameless gluttons in those days and it invariably used to happen that either the prawns or the mutton(once it was the paan) which would finish off before the other guests had a chance to eat.Paritosh the caterer at these parties would invariably ask dadu if we were coming to the party and if yes,he would hike the per plate cost of the food.Dadu would take it in his stride,only once before a party he told us (me & shubho) that"shudhu chingri khele cholbe na,mutton ta o kheyo" & lo and behold the mutton got polished off at that party :).We will miss him a lot.He was our favourite dadu.
