"Main sabke liye coffee lekar aata hun"....the image of Chinku at midnight paying for 4 coffees with Rs.5 and getting abused by the mess worker....those are moments where true friendships are created

The firangi. Have a peculiar voice which make him recognize from a distance.More popular among local gals than IIM S's ones. Have also taken special coaching to learn Khasi!!!

Unknown said...

Who is this guy? i.e., exactly the feeling that came to my mind when I heard a weird loud voice from the another corner of the class (first class of IIM)....a blogger, an entrepreneur and a good human being---this is wat gaurav is. But I would like to remember him as SAFED CHAMGADAR (name, I have given him)...Wish u a great future ahead...

"Sir I am from Afghanistan." Great person in every aspect of life. I am really happy to have friends like you.. Won't forget word "Limuuuukhaaaahhh Jaayegaaaa" in your voice. Wish you great future ahead...

The guy who use to wake ppl up in class with his BOOMING voice. Guess that wud never change!
One of the first ppl I met here. Will definitely miss the weird conversations we have in online, in corridors and in bakar sessions and also the 2nd term parties in his room! One very very important professional connection we had was that I used the tie knotted by his pop (during inauguration) for a whole of 14 months :D And ofcourse the damning set of ppts we made in 5th term, hope u forget them :) All the best dude.

My group E member and hard working person here... but utna hi jitna zaroori hai.. varna jaaye bhaad mein… he is a techie and uses what all applications, many of those I haven’t even heard of… he asks me you use this or this and I used to stare at him with a blank face…
A very friendly and an honest person.. what he feels he says it on the face and that’s very difficult to do… a chilled out person.. certainly will go places.. all the very best for road ahead..

Hari said...

Buddy.. will always remember you as a guy whom i fight with for hot water in bathrooms. still remember those useless talks we had in our bathrooms..

You must watch his handmovments when he is giving presentations. As if he is squeezing something.. but a true fiend to me and yes we will continue to exchange gallis whenever we see each other.

I first met this guy during my GDPI round for IIM S. He was truly friendly back then itself. The next time I saw him was on the first day at IIM S. A big smile filled my faced when I knew that he was my roomie, as now I knew atleast one person beforehand. Over the months our friendship has truly evolved & I must acknowledge that he has been the best friend I could ever have at IIM S.

He has been with me from Day 1 be it class, assignments, studying, food, chit-chat, shopping etc. Each corner of shillong holds some fond memories of his presence. Above all, he has stood by me through the roughest of times when friends decided to walk away, being the one who was always there without ever mentioning a word, but just being there whenever I was about to fall.

All in all I would say he is a very soft-hearted person with a lot of love, compassion, care, & understanding for others. Someone who truly understands the meaning of friendship & is willing to sacrifice many things to see someone else happy – like he did in my case!!!

Thank You….Cheers!!!!!

Nilesh said...

The guy likes to flirt and have fun.. I wonder what will happen to all the Shillong girls once he leaves this place...

Had a great time working with you in Group E.. something, I guess we two will always remember..

A very reliable person and a good friend to hang out with...

Wish you all the success in life.. and hope you will have same kind of success with your looks in Dubai as in Shillong.. :)

DreamCatcher said...

Gaurav.. He is the guy who comes close to my idea of a brother..may be thats why I could always speak my mind from intial days to himself.. shared one of my darkest secrets of life. Somehow I couldn't help it but trust him.. "maktub"

Our friendship.. booze nights..working with you.. coming to your room daily.. every moment shared with you has been an experience in itself.

Very sharp mind..innovative..and loads of zeal to do something..sometimes a fattu ( excuse me for this ) but ya sometimes you need to speak out dude! rather than keeping it to yourself..

Somehow still I wanted to go with you to dubai..not because of JOb but because of your company.. I have always enjoyed being withh you.. your retorts .. your " Bikherna" your dont care kiss my @$$ attitude..

I dont knw how much our friendship means to you.. but it means alot to me and one of things I am carrying back with myself are the days spend with you and this life long friendship..Glad to meet you bro..and whenever you need a friend .. you can count on me! promise

Stay the way you are.. You gonna reach unreachable stars!

One of the few freshers to whom I can relate with my engg. friends, Always speaks sense in class even wen DPs wer becoming norm …… Clear in thought process, and somewat unorthodox personality who don’t like to follow others, and want to become an innovator, a First mover …… dese amzin qualities wud definitely bring huge success in ur life….n ya….forget to mention one imp person in his life….LALITAAA ( his immediate target) :P

Shivam Kataria said...

You have heard of Tall, dark and Handsome guys....well, he is totally opposite Short, FAIR ( Rin supreme ka vada) and Cute (a bit handsome too :))....with an amazing voice he has been able to win over the hearts of many people in our batch.

Fondly called chotu, Cheeku and wat not, he has always kept a smile on his face. A little flitatious, he has been able to woo so many gals in Shillong itself ( some still behind him :)).
I owe him my life (;)). He was there for me when I fell ill, his room became the nursing room for almost a week and his clothes started stinking of cough syrup and khichdi.
He is truly a great friend, one you can hold on to for life.
SPOILER ALERT: Beware of his mood swings, he might kill you if he is in one ;)

He has an excellent taste of music( especially rock). Sometimes he is hard to predict, He will go for long walks for hours or come back all drenched in rain. A mysterious and charming personality, he is all set to rock the beaches of Dubai with his dazzling sunshine( read his face).
I wish you all the very best for future, Keep smiling always.ATB

Saurabh Suman said...

A very cool, music-lover, fun-loving guy with a distinct accent which distinguishes him from the crowd. Ability to attract your attention towards him with his look and voice (deadly combo). My UTI mate in Mumbai for 2 months and his expeditions there will always let me remember you my friend.

Rock in Dubai, NRI banake bhool mat jana………………All the best for your future

equanimity, humbleness and dexterity in his work epitomises the most goodlooking guy in IIM Shillong.

Comes across as a very cute boy, a lovely human being with an innocent smile and a pure heart..its been always fun talking to u...great sense of humor.. he stands for what he believes is correct....A wonderful guy who will have a great career!!! Wishing u all the very best!!

Abhiram Mahajani said...

Mr.Dikshit was articulate enough to say something about this chap...
"Gore se bhi gora Gaurav ARORA!!"

Also known as chinkesh, chinkoo, chiikoo.. gaurav swallowed a mike when he was born... his CP/DP was many a times a harsh wake up signal for all those asleep in class!

I will never forget our race against time... and those last minute parallel baths (in different bathrooms) and the bakar then... and entering late in class... he has been a next door neighbour throughout...and a wonderful one!

Truly justifies his door poster! :)

Unknown said...

Chinkooo... A very nice, affectionate & adorable kid... Have never worked with him but definitely want to ... He will be remembered for his scandalously fair skin and his loud voice apart from his contributions to IIM S as a PR cell member. He is loved by all for reasons other than his fair skin. God save him from Dubai Sheikhs.
Wishing you all the success & happiness in life

Betam@ster said...

as ashu says.....gore se bhi gora , gaurav arora :)
well, he is an extreme fun loving creature, a person with a pure heart

aditya

Least interested in girls .. but opposite hardly holds true !!

He lives his own life and likes to have friendship with each and everyone ....

Kannan Vasudevan said...

We both have one common problem... colour :D He is very enthusiastic , jovial and always smiling! Very friendly and he gives amazing points during discussion. I am sure he will conquer the entire Middle East and then the world! All the best dude(!), pls do keep in touch

Virtual Citizen said...

Gaurav masks a very intelligent brain with his seemingly uncaring attitude to whatever is going on. He is the kind of person who would accept you with open arms but is as judgmental as they get. Highly opinionated, he more often than not sits on the right side of the argument. Although he and I have had differences, I like to believe that he is one of the good friends I had in IIM Shillong.
Gaurav I have always been a fan of the way you have an opinion but never try to force it on others. I wish I could learn that from you and hope that some part of you would have rubbed off on me. Never change bro…

Mohit said...

One of my good friends at IIM S, Gaurav has this ability to mix up well with people.. A great guy to have as a team member... Works with dedication, and has a good sense of humour (only PJs though )
Will surely remember and cherish the days we worked together for maagIK, it was indeed a pleasure! You are sure to scale the highest of peaks in life, wish you luck for the same...
