Happy B'Day Brother!


It is 8th Feb, Pankaj bhaiya's Birthday, or should i say Chandigarh's ladla...Rj Pankaj's aka Pammu's Bud-day!:):) With all due respect to his mammoth fan following and rockoing celebrity status, for me he is not even an inch more or an inch less than my doting brother (rakhi-brother)/ friend / ex-colleague. I've been thinking about him since morning, since its his B'day, and therefore, I decided to pen down my heartfelt emotions for this special brother, so that I could re-read, and cherish our amazing friendship time and again.


I met this amazing guy probably, two years back (18th or 19th Feb'07, to be a bit precise) in the studios of Big 92.7 Fm, chandigarh. His humility and etiquettes left a lasting impression on my mind. He had absolutely no airs despite, being the most sough-after Rj of the tricity. He instantly earned countless brownie points for his simple and down-to-earth attitude. Our friendship scaled great heights after I joined the organisation a an intern. That was perhaps, the most beautiful and memorable phase of the entire relationship. We became good friends and began weaving memories. Infact, he entire Big 92.7 family was a close-knitted extended family.


Well, coming back to Pankaj, he is one the best persons that I have ever met. Down to earth, humble, soft-spoken, caring.These might seem like tried and tested statements that we normally get through, but trust me, there is not even a speck of exaggeration. He is undoubtedly, a gem of a person!

He is the best son that any parent could wish for!

The Best brother in the world!

The Best friend in the entire universe!

The Best Rj that any radio-station can wish for!

The Best Chachu that Mannat could have ever had!

(Btw, Mannat is his cute, little, adorable niece)


Coming to a few of his achievements,he is one of those gifted people, who are endowed with an entire spectrum of talents. He is not only a great radio presenter, but a remarkable Actor as well. Only few people ar aware of the fact that he was the first choice of director, Rakesh Om Prakash Mehra for the celebrated role of "Aslam" in his Oscar-nominated movie, Rang De Basanti. As ill luck would have it,Pankaj somehow couldn't continue with the project, and the role fell into Kunal Kapoor's kitty. Even, I am convinced, that Pankaj would have definitely been a better option but nevertheless, I know that the Almighty has planned something more Special for him.So, lets wait for the destiny to unfold,and for the time being lets keep our fingers crossed!!


Forget about acting, he is an equally talented singer. His voice has an unconventional charm and poise ,that makes his listeners go weak in their knees. He made it to the semi-finals of the Indian Idol! He often sings on his show, the Big Gedi,and trust me, it creates a wonderful ambience in itself.


He has been a celebrated theatre artist with more than three dozen plays in his kitty. Not only theatre, he even made it to Tollywood. Some of his significant roles were seen in Kasmir, Haqeeqat, Zindagi Ek Safar, Mission Fateh, Jo kahunga sach kahunga.

All in all, he is a bundle of talents and success.

But more than success, fame and everything else., he is a Master of words. His simplicity embellishes it personality all the more further. He is a rockstar, he is a charmer and o wonderful human being.

And an amazing friend too!!

I wish you all the success and goodluck ahead.!
