The title more or less says it all.
It was a grand evening indeed.
Was this my best "book release" ever?
I don't know.
But I must say I was blown away, by the turnout, by the amazing
professionalism of the guys at Goethe-Zentrum (specifically Anna) and the fact that I sat in between the
one and only Aasheesh Pittie and the one and only Vijay Marur.
The best part of the evening was when a nice lady wanted me to sign two
books for her with "birds" added to "wish you all the best in life".
A big thank you to all who came over braving the rain
A bigger thank you to Anna, Mercy and Amita for putting up with my "first show" jitters and resultant delays.
An even more bigger thank you to my brother Sashi, if not for his stewardship, I would have been headed towards Hussein Sagar with an auto load of prints and frames.
The birdman is happy and humbled, thank you everyone.
Some of the pics of the event are here
