Babaji Bhai and Kanhei Bhai

The bare man in the for-ground is Kanhei Bhai. He is my childhood hero. He plays the Khanjani well. He used to sing well. Similarly the man in front is Babji Bhai. He was the only one from my village who was a music director of a theatre group during my childhood. This time I got the picture of both at the Ashta Prahari in front of our village temple.

My cousin brother- Gopia Bhai

Gopa Bhai. He's my cousin brother.We are from the same family. From my days in the past I remember him serving at Kolkata in sack factories and stayed there for many many years but always maintained a steady contact with family. I remember waiting for his arrival from Kolkata with a lot of expectation and if by any chance it got delayed beyond 10 AM when we go to school, I never felt like going there. It was the small eatables he got from Kolkata that made me a fan of his. All his 3 children namely Jahatua(Nagendra), Gendua(Rabindra) and Suka(Sukanta) are very close to me. Jhatua is a contemporay and Gendua and Suka a bit junior in age, are still the closest family aides I have.Gopa Bhai has been staying in village for many years now and tries his best to solve problems of neighbours to the best of his ability.

Panch Bhai

Panchu Bhai- the nerve centre of Quick Studio around whom a large group of both young, not-so-young, old and very old people with Jagatsingpur links from all over India revolve. Panchu Bhai generates enough enthusiasm not only to his close people but also their families and takes the pain of taking care of every one of them while at the studio. A loving and compassionate person, Panchu Bhai is thorough family man and loves other's families as much as his own.

My favourite hunting ground in Jagatsinghpur

This is one more place I am close to- Quick Photo Studio in Sana Bazar, Jagatsinghpur. This is a place where I have found a home in which the members have showered on me a lot of love.

Fakana- the blessed one

Gadadhara Babu

Sri Gadadhar Mishra was my teacher in SVM College, Jagatsinghpur, but I knew him much before as a close student of my teacher Sri Nrushingha Ch. Sahoo and I found them both to be close pals at cerebral level in during the sixties of 20th century when I used to stay with the later at his rented house in Badabazar. But Gadadhar Babu became closer to me when I stayed with his fateher Pandit Sri Ganesh Mishra at the Alipingal Asharam during the summer of 1970 when I was intiated by Panditjee.I have known Gadadhar Babu and his wife and have seen all his five children from Bani to Gopal grow up before me. Despite many personal tragedies in his life this man has always been so loving to our Sir (read Nrushingha Sir) and vice-versa and has always been so kind to me and my family that he almost always comes to my mind. I love and regard him for all his unconditional love for Sir and of course for myself and my family at large.
