Jess and I grew up together, we've been friends for 10+ years now. She knows me better than I know myself sometimes. We dropped the basketball sneaks and landed ourselves husbands! The real WIN.
Harsh came into my life at 6 years old and never left. We grew up together and there is no one else that knows me as well as this man. Harsh is my cousin but really, he is my older brother. We grew up fighting, laughing, and getting in trouble, 20+ years later and we are still fighting, laughing, and getting in trouble. Harsh has been my right hand since day one of the second grade and my mentor in life. He always plays the devil’s advocate but sometimes he just plays as the devil himself, have a debate with him and you will know. It is an honor to have him as my Best Man.
Pratik is like a mini-me. We share a lot of similarities like the same sports, like the same foods, and are similar in shape. Pratik’s unique personality always keeps the party going. From all the good times on trips or the late night talks it was always a pleasure to spend time with this guy.
Sahil and I were the youngest in the group until Pratik came along. Sahil was the one that got picked on the most but now is probably the one cousin that can beat up all of us. Sahil your innocent and naive self has come a long way, from the monopoly days where he owed everyone thousands of dollars to today where he flies around in a helicopter.
Ujaval is like the older brother that was always there to pull pranks, play video games, play sports, and make events more enjoyable. His dedication and devotion to fulfilling his dreams shows me if there is a will there is a way.
Harshal and I met in freshmen year of college at Temple University, and we became good friends by the end of sophomore year. With all the parties, trips and games, there was never a dull moment with him. Harshal is one person I know I can trust and rely on in time of need. Our friendship lasted this long and I am so excited that he will be going from friend to Brother-in-Law.
I don’t really know how Tobi and I met, but it was between sophomore and junior year at Temple University, and he hasn't left since. Our time spent together was always memorable, whether it was all the trips or the parties or the hangouts on the roofs or just skipping class. He is one of the most genuine people I know and was always there for me time and again.
Shane and I first met at my apartment sophomore year, where he was drugged up and drooling on the couch (drugged due to dislocating his shoulder). Shane was my scape goat throughout college and currently (but not so much since Dhrupa has come into the picture). Every time my parents asked where I was going or who I am going with, my answer was "Shane". "Shane needs help" or "Shane wants me to go", or "its Shane’s birthday party". Shane was always there for me and can always count on him to always show up.
Joby and I met in college and began our friendship over Bollywood. Over the years, Joby was a great competitor and showed great sportsmanship after he continued to take L's in Mario Kart. After all these years, we continue to enjoy singing and dancing on tables to Bollywood songs at 3 am. He is a great friend and is usually the life of the party, probably because he knows every person at the party.
