Namdev Kharkane sang the Hemant Kumar sung song Bekarar karke hamein yun na jaaiye Aapko hamaari kasam laut aaiye from the film Bees Saal Baad and truly elevated the spirits of all batch mates.

Dr Kanak Madrecha was supported in the organization of the Reunion by many batchmates including Sumit Chordia & Akhilesh Jain. The attendees were happy to meet many batchmates from different parts of the world first time after few decades without any international /domestic air travel.
