Jethamoshai and Family, 1966

14th august as Kakamoni probably would have told you is the day Dadu died 1960 and 14th august 1966 we shifted to Rampur. It is amazing that you have uploaded this photograph on today's date.
That is Ajju Sanju on two sides of Shim, Son pish and Sham pish(their parents, another of our extended family, Baba's Promod Mama and Mami, left them with Amma - cannot remmeber why) next to Ajju and Mukul and Abha (lot more than just our neighbours - they are Madhav Chacha, Kakmoni's friend's children) sitting in front. The eldest Shobha I believe is working in MPEB! Gut can expand on that. Meshomoni had taken this photograph. Rampur quarters 1970 I think :)

Gobu Aloni’s Anna Prashan 1995 Philadelphia

 

We went to Philadelphia to celebrate Gobu’s Anna Prashan, Sangeeta was 6 months pregnant with Kannu at that time so we were learning as well. Click here for the slideshow for bigger resolutions

Sangeeta getting a massage from Didi and Kanchi. Bishon Aalladi

Mama and Bhanja deep in sleep. Notice Gobu is nicely wrapped up in his bandhan

Kanchi, Mani and Gobu getting squished by Sangeeta

Bula didi talking to Gobu who does not look like he is very impressed with all this bathing business

Gobu getting a massage

Another view of him getting a bath.

Gobu’s Anno Prashon. He wasnt impressed with what his mama was feeding him. I dont remember what he really selected out of the plate either.

Cuddling with the kids.



The celebratory lunch, all around the table.

Mummum Death 1981

This was taken at the Rampur house on the terrace when mummum (grandmother, Nonibala Dasgupta) died in 1981. This was the “family home” for a long time, where Mummum and Pishi used to live, and then with Choto Kaku joining in on the first floor, it truly became the family home for a very long period of time.
