ASTOUNDING RESPONSE
Couldn't be happier
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
He is Raman Bhalla, fondly referred to by his family as R&B ...is a 6'3"... 30 year old... Paris based, single... wealthy Punjabi venture capitalist, he's a co investor/partner in a French company called Argent Graines which translates to Silver Seeds 
He returns to India... reluctantly... to manage his Dad's biz, a chain of automobile dealerships across North India called Excelsior Automobiles... for M company cars He abandoned the family over a scandal that rocked it three years ago. To say he doesn't like his Dad would be an understatement.
She is Ishita Iyer a 27 year old... 5'9" IIM MBA & CPA ,single... Delhi based Iyer, daughter of a bureaucrat...she is a Public Accountant and SW Mgr with KMPG Inc. signs off her emails with a "II"
Her company will install and support a transaction processing SW in Excelsior
BTW she has a broken heart also
...
How they meet and fall in love is the story of R&B and II
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I have NO experience in the IT/IS industry, Accounting? yes... so this is all just a figment of imagination... I am sorry if its factually incorrect
After all, its just a story
I AM TOLD Its all of the following
Brilliant, funny, Intelligent, Urban, Classy, Racy, Witty, Crisp, sexy
...Any other adjectives it makes you conjure up would be a sheer windfall to me
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Key Compliments that feed/fed my frenzy
Modernfamily:
That was mind blowing. BRILLIANT. Don't know how I missed it. Read it in a row and fell in love with this beautiful beautiful story. Your writing is so tight and crisp and all the emotions are so palpable. You're brilliant and funny. Although there is no similarity, but I felt like I'm reading Arundhati Roy's novel. Keep writing and do let me know if there are other stories that you've written on this forum and I've been blind enough to miss them.

Aaw davara/tumbler + filter coffee , R&B does take in the best of the iyer culture..Starbucks may come and go but drinking filter coffee using the steel containers beats everything .. I have to start my day like that..
Waiting for the next update now..lady i am positive you need to write a book, Chetan Bhagat started this way and his language or ideas are no different from yours :-)..this story could actually very well translate into a book , think about it
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~Payal~ (Sample Review on Page 45)
1) You're a brilliant writer.
2) I'm obsessed with this story.
3) I'm in love with R&B.

This FF is like a ready heady red velvet cupcake.. the supercalorific ones that you can't stay away from but you just can't resist licking every crumble off your fingertips. You are way too good at this Nisha...I bow to your mastery!

Also, how much do I love the convos in the Iyer house, especially II's thoughts about Srikanth and the reasons Vandhu is recommending him- it is so reflective of some conversations I've had with my family on the topic of marriage, I can't get over how realistic it is. So well done!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH FOR READING
Warning: Not proof read, not spell checked... either
In my defense I will say impossible task... at the frequency at which I update
