What a witty and amusing write dear friend. Those who cry for lean beauty would rethink on their decision and may be they prefer to put on some weight after going through your brilliant lines 'On Charming Beauty'. A very well deserving win. Congrats on your grand win Dr. Upma. Love and best wishes always...Ravindra K Kapoor
