Description: While thanking all my favourite Gods & Godesses for the totally unexpected gift& honour of being one of the very few indians selected for the prestigious French Governent Merit Scholarship, without any political support or without greasing the palms of any one, I was reminded of the Tamil Prayer "what sort of intense prayers and blessings you may have done Yesodha to have such a legend and super human Lord Krishna in your womb?" & was thanking my amazing parents for making me what I am too!
