My time in Varanasi is flying and maybe because I am happy and content, taking long jogs, I feel fresh and healthy to beat the blues, I decided to go to an event with my mate Tiwari. This was a Cancer awareness event sponsored by Novartis and covered by TV 18. It was a gal affair at the Taj Hotel in Varanasi. The event would have the deputy Chief minister as the chief guest and there was going to be a panel discussion of doctors and even talks by some cancer survivors. So, I knew I had to look good and dress well. I managed to buy a few new pants and some comfortable shirts. Once my wardrobe was done, I was ready to go and ventured into the event at about five in the evening.

The event hall was well light and they’re where a lot of news cameras and excited anchors running around taking interviews. There was a hinge Dias with the logo of the event needless to say the only colour one could see was Pink.

We had tea and coffee with cookies and the evented into the hall. The seating arrangement was good, and their cheer plush sofa sets just next to the stage. I managed to grab a place at the back of the hall just near the tele promoter. The compare and the hostess gave an opening speech and son the minster arched with his bodyguards and the entire government entourage. The minister the light a diyas to inaugurate the event.

A lot that was spoken was informative for me, and I knew the tragedy of a loved one dyeing on Cancer. I had lost my mother to the horrible disease. It was the woman who were the most venerable and I heard a heartwarming sooty of a lady who had survived cancer, he fights, and her struggle gave us all hope.

The light the music and the audio visuals where percent and everything was well coordinated, the event was organized well and the who is who of the city where at the event. They were reporters and cameramen everywhere along with security guards with guns.

After an heir we were served tea and I managed to much a few samosas along with cheese and vegetable sandwiches. I also had a lemon tea just to get some liquid in my system. The benign had descended and I felt like a walk in the gardens of the hotel. I did not want to eat too much as I was saving my appetite for the dinner. A Taj dinner is always a great treat, bit the event was still on and I ventured back into the hall to see and hear the doctors panel discussion. The head of Novartis also gave a speech in which he talked about the need of awareness and how to educate people about the disease.

The chair wrapped up the evening by eight thirty and we moved to the dining hall for the dinner. It was Rogan Josh and Butter chicken with Nan and Pulao for me and I even managed to have full plate of Jalebi. The night ended with a pan as we trudged back to form the Gand event at Taj. For me it was another wonderful evening in the city that has given me a lot of joy.
