RE: The Tale of Two Sandhus

[Guest guest]

The Late Dr Sandhu was friends with Diwan?????

Vaddha Dr Sandhu used to take our evening clinics in surgery. He was the

approachable one. My memories are his teaching us hydrocele examination. No

gloves...... kneading the hydrocele whilst taking us thru the signs,

symptoms, management etc etc.

Very nice person. Helped us thru exam times etc.

Subject: [Norton AntiSpam] The Tale of Two Sandhus

When people talk about 1979 Batch, the two Sandhus that we had

immediately come to mind. They both were likeable persons. In fact, they

believed in living life as was the philosophy propagated by our batch in

general. However, the similarity ended there. They were different from

each other in almost every other respect. One was tall and handsome; the

other short. Hence they were known as the 'vaddha' Sandhu and the

'chotta' Sandhu, respectively. They both were the source of endless

humour for us. Once the 'vaddha' Sandhu used a percussion hammer to

start his bike for a month because he had lost the ignition key. He

found the key later: it was under his pillow. The 'chotta' Sandhu was

deadly with his satire. It was pure fun whenever they entered into a

one-to-one discussion. The whole batch loved them.

Unfortunately, the 'vaddha' Sandhu died in an accident in 1990. The

other one is alive and well! I am sure his sense of humour will still be

intact.

The tale of two sandhus has got the people interested in recollecting who they

were and what they did to become famous (or notorious). The details about the

firang were deliberately held back. But the people already have some knowledge

about that episode. I think I can now tell you what it was. The two Sandhus,

along with two other guys from our batch, had gone to Goa for a holiday. It was

there that Sandhu met a German girl. She found him so 'irresistible' that she

followed him to Sewagram. The whole place was curious to find out what was going

on. She even went to his parents' place. She had to leave finally. That was the

end of Sandhu's German romance. However, this 'kissa' remained alive for a long

time.

I remember the vaddha Sandhu - there were lots of stories we had heard about him

- one of them being that he had a " firang " girlfriend who stayed in the

Dharamshala - don't know how true that was !
