5th April 2007 :: Age no bar

What has age got to do with friendship? Manu—my 2 year old son with his best friend Mr. Alok Dasgupta-my 80 years old neighbor. Earlier he used to run to his house when the door was open but now he asks us to take him there. "Uncle paas jaan hai". Over there he keeps Mr. Dasgupta busy as he holds his hand and take him inside to inspect the house. He collects the clips from the bedroom and sticks them on the curtain in the living room. Here he is sitting with him on his sofa and checking out his empty pack of cigarettes.
