I was a student then. Was coming back from Pune In Deccan Express. I was very happy as for the first
time in my student days I was coming in an AC chair Car. Suddenly there was a silence. Two constables
entered, followed by a very "Top Boss" looking person. Very well dressed and Black shoes with a robust
impressive personality. Yes.. He was a senior IPS officer. We started talking. He shared with me the books
he was reading, and also gave me a few tips about Life. He said its Enthusiasm which is most important to be
happy and Successful in life !! I sang for him couple of Old Rafi and Talat Songs. We shared our Email
addresses and cards ( I dint have one then !! )
The Saheb was escorted by Policemen at the VT station.I took his blessings and we decided to be in
touch. It happened for some time, but then as always, lost to Follow up.
Few years later, another IPS senior officer mentioned my name to this gentleman while they were listening
to good music. And the Connection started again !!
I went to meet Add Director General Prisons Prakash Pawar Saheb, at his Pune Office.We shared the
Deccan Express Incident again... I was so happy to meet the "Humble" big Boss !! He came to know
about my Music Clinic activities for Police and Jail Inmates. . So happy was he that he asked me to conduct
few more programs for the Police and Inmates.And the Letter was drafted in 10 mins. What an atmosphere in
his office. Many people with Great ideas had come, and Pawar Saheb was taking decisions so swiftly !!
Friends, we never know when opportunity comes.... Always be ready to grab opportunities...
Do your good work with sincerity. You may not get success initially. But you will get people who will
value your work.... Just keep on working and Your Day will come....... soon....
