So I got a "room" in a house where I used to stay and go home to my parents on the weekends. It was an exciting time.

That was the year I started watching a lot of movies, including Hindi movies. In the beginning I didn't know any of the actors. I think Darr was the first Hindi movie I watched in a theater as a grown up. After the movie, I remember a friend discussing the plot with me, and me confusing Shah Rukh Khan and Sunny Deol because I didn't know their names.

That was the year Baskin-Robbins opened an outlet in Hyderabad. One of my friends who was steeped in American culture (from books, TV and exposure to cousins who lived in the US) was eager to go there. It was too expensive for me so I never went.
