Chittoor, 2002 I met Imran the previous year in Tirupati where I became friends with his father who was an important security policeman. The family then moved to Chittoor, South west of Tirupati on the road to Bangalore. I stayed in a small hotel. I met his engineering friends Madhu and Gopi. We went to a nearby hilly region and set off to visit a small temple on top of a mountain. It became to hot to reach the top (we achieved that in 2003) but it was a good opportunity to become good friends. The boys are now all married and scattered. We also visited Gopi's home near the dear park. To change size of pictures use Control / - or + For other India pics Click here |
