Destiny played a major role in this reconnect...............

 Its nearly a month since my  last post on this blog. I was away to Delhi  to attend Radio Asia 2011 on behalf of All India Radio.The surprise package of the visit was my meeting with the former Minister of Art and Culture, of Mauritius Mr Parsuramen.  He is now the Director and Head of UNESCO in the Indian Sub continent. I was meeting him and his wife after a decade.  Thanks to my Chip of The Old Blog that I got reconnected with him.

Mrs & Mr Parsuraman 

  He had come back from Sri Lanka after his tour. From the Indira Gandhi  International  Airport -Terminal 3 (truly a world class airport), he drove straight to India International Center,  where we had a quite dinner.  It was an  emotional reunion. In fact destiny had played a major role in this reconnect.

Terminal 3.. ..Truly World class

 Look at the turn of events. I write a blog. This time I pick up  the topic, " First Indo-Mauritius Film Co -production". I had to write about Mr Parsuramen, because he was instrumental in ensuring that the Co Production takes off. I needed his picture. I look for the same on the Internet. I found him with UNESCO in India.  I send him a mail. Within a couple of hours I receive  a call from him from Delhi. After exchanging pleasantries, he asks  my plan to visit Delhi. I was not sure, since I have not been to Delhi for the last 18 months. Still, I promise to meet him at the earliest.

Mr A Parsuramen

                      Within a week I receive a letter from AIR Delhi.  I have been nominated  as a speaker to attend  Radio Asia 2011 conference  from 21st Feb. I call Mr Parsuramen Tell him about about the new development. And the next thing I was boarding a flight for Delhi. Our meeting was fixed for the 23rd Feb 2011 the day Mr Parsuramen returns from Sri Lanka.
