Dear Rahul Dravid,
For an Indian cricket fan of the 2000s, the Indian team is like a batch of heroes. Sachin’s stardom, Ganguly’s aggression, and Yuvi and Mahi’s attacking strokeplay are embedded in our minds. But somewhere between this gang, there was a guy like glue, holding the entire team together when we were falling, and like a support around whom the entire team could build when we were winning. That guy was you, Rahul Sharad Dravid, the guy who played for country above anything else.
Lord’s 1996, Taunton 1999, Kolkata 2001 are all remembered for various reasons, but what many might have forgotten is the presence of Rahul Dravid at one side. A gritty and solid technique, a look of confidence, and the hunger to win games for India, that’s how I would describe you. Be it being at the forefront of victories, or the lone warrior in losses, you would always put your hand up.
I have never seen anyone so adaptive to a variety of conditions and situations, be it moving up and down the order as the team required you to, or keeping wickets to ensure that the team could play an extra batsman. And while doing all this at the highest level for almost 16 years, you never let the success get to your head. Despite having more than impressive international stats, there was no one more down to earth or calm than you. The 2000s are remembered for India’s two most successful captains ever – Ganguly and Dhoni, but sandwiched between them were you, winning a series in England in Tests and an amazing ODI record in 2005-06. And even after retirement, you kept serving the nation, coaching the up-and-coming cricketers towards the national team. Humility, diligence, grit and confidence – these are the words that describe you the best. You have been a huge inspiration to me and million others, Rahul, thank you for the memories and teachings!

Dear best friend,
I don’t even know where to begin from for all i am is because of you in life.
Thank you for being the sunshine in my life while i was going through a storm, thank you for listening to me while i was breaking,picking me up after every fall,comforting me when i needed it the most. I can’t thank you enough for supporting me like a father, caring for me like a mother, annoying me like a sister and protecting me like a brother. You handled all my mood swings without even cribbing about it. I’m sorry about the times where i acted like a jerk and hurt you.
From being an introvert to opening up in front of people you have seen me grow and been behind my back no matter what. For all those fights we’ve had in the past years its worth when i tightly hug you and we laugh on our arguments. But this is what makes our friendship even more stronger.
I am not great at writings, i may not have enough words to describe you but all i say comes purely from my heart. Cheers to those new years and outings we’ve done in the past years. 
I’ve learned alot from you. I’ve learned that things don’t always turn out the way you planned. Apart from being my best friend you are the kindest human i’ve know.
There would be ups and downs in life but no matter what i will always be by your side and never make you feel alone. 
Never stop irritating me, passing out lame jokes on me and most importantly being there for me.
This may sound way more cliche and cheesy than it was in my mind for all which matters is you get a big fat smile on your face after reading this:)
Love,
Rajasi

Dear Iss**ta,
We met in NIS. You had your sass mode on and I was this “new girl.” It wasn’t best-friend-at-first-sight, we definitely had our own tiffs. But here we are, eight years later, all strong and tight! Thank you for putting up with me, sometimes I hear myself and I’m like what did I just say!? I can only imagine what it is like for you. We were twelve, just becoming teenagers when we met and now we’re crossing that phase together. I’ve seen you grow into this beautiful human that you are today and it’s just awesome to see how far we’ve come. I have seen every version of you, and I love all of it. Just know that I’m always here for you if you fall back :) Shooing off your runaway thoughts was a task though >_< Remember when I yelled 24-100-145 in class? That’s when all our code words started, thanks to our landlines. From crying over wrong decisions to singing You’n’I out loud and behaving like maniacs, we’ve done it all. You’re my best freaking friend, are super precious to me, and so is aunty’s daal. I know you miss mumma’s cake, isiliye meet me jaldi :* You’re the sunshine of my life and Kinder to my joy. I’ll always be your Anne Sullivan and you’ll always be my SOS. Having deep conversations, you stealing my hair ties, us being just us, I cherish all of it. Imagining life without you is scary. We’ve shared pretty much every”thing” ;) Can’t wait to move in with you, I hope you get me Nano some day xD To many more 12:00 am conversations on The Martian and my brain cells yet to come, Happy Birthday :)  You’re irreplaceable and I’d probably be lost without you. I love you right left centre :’)
Yours, Saloni

Dear Aai,
Everything I am is because of you. When I was in 10th grade, I was struggling to get good grades, and I ended up having anxiety issues and losing my self-confidence. Nevertheless, I always had you by my side and, I am grateful that I still do. You became my strength and kept motivating me to give my best, and that is the reason I was able to do well. You have taught me the courage to face uncertainty with full conviction, and you have made me realise the importance of having faith in my capabilities. You have taught me, to fight every battle, to take a
stand for myself and to never give up on my self-respect. I know that you have had your set of negative experiences, but you have grown to become a phenomenal inspiration to me by being brave. You have taught me authenticity, not perfection. You have taught me that true beauty
comes from being vulnerable, from being real and from being true to yourself and others. The essence of liberation and freedom lies in taking responsibility and finding a purpose in life, and I have learnt that only from you. You have never given up, and that is why you have never failed.
I have learnt to chase my dreams without thinking about the outcome, and I want to thank you for making me the person I am today.
I consider myself to be immensely blessed, to have been born to a woman like you. Thank you
for not only giving me my life but also for teaching me how to live it.
Love,
Avani

Dear Monica "candy lady" Geller,
Call me weird for writing this to you but since you have inspired me in so many different ways I owe this to you.
I am going to ramble for a bit about the numerous ways in which you continued to inspire me. For being the the most relatable character from a sitcom.
So here goes what every half an hour of the 236 episodes taught me.
With every "I know" I learnt to be confident and sanguine.
With every recipe you whipped up throughout the show I learnt, to always try new things and to believe in myself and my abilities.
With every witty comeback against your parents who were partial to your brother I learnt, to be optimistic and to better myself through each set back.
With every job opportunity you got I learnt, to never give up on my dreams and to not stop until I achieve my goal.
With every advice you gave to your friends I learnt, to be always there for people around me, for the people I love.
With every specification of how your apartment should be I learnt to, strive for perfection.
With every new episode and every new season I became a better version of myself.
You were the motherly therapist friend we all aspire to be. You were the strong secure and confident woman every girl like me aspires to be. You helped other souls and yourself with dignity and grace.
I was 14 when I saw a role model in you.
I was 14 when you became an inspiration for me.
I was 14 when I wanted to be like Monica geller.
Thank you for always inspiring us and for being you.
Love,
A wannabe candy lady. @ Pune, Maharashtra

Dear Chillar party,
It’s been almost five months since we all met. I am sure the woods, 40s classrooms, sandwich, Marines and the Marine drive must be missing us and our never ending gossips, chats, debates and impractical discussions. It’s our third year and the feeling of not being together in college is disheartening. We are 14 of us to be precise but it’s like a big fat family. So many seniors told me that you would be left with only three to four people maximum by the end of your graduation. But I am glad to take them all along.
I guess I am a novel with 14 chapters of friendships. Each story is diverse, unique and has one of its kind plot. Each chapter has a different protagonist and I love to experience all the adventures with each of them. While Dhwani and Arushi are my dil ka tukda, not a single day can me live without laughing at some random old joke cracked by them. I miss Jess calling me golu and consistently sharing the food in restaurants under the pretext that her stomach is full. While Ruhi tries to begin conversation with ‘how’s life?’ I certainly miss train journeys with her. Vasu is like that person with whom you are never scared and damn sure about you are in safe hands and protected. Achint, I miss her dal and rajma and feeling of being at home when she is with me. While Hiral and Aashumi are busy handling psychology major, I miss discussing general knowledge with Hiru and sharing deepest secrets with Aashu. Spending time with Mudit is certainly a stress buster. I hope Shubham and Harneet have figured out the definition of ups chalre and downs chalre, but I miss cracking silly jokes with them. Shubham B I am waiting for the day when you will bake a cake for me and Abi, it’s just a few days then we can chill in Delhi.
I am so grateful to have found my bunch of best people. They taught me to create immortal memories and to prioritize friendship in its purest form above anything.
- Yours Harsh

Dear friend,
They say it takes time for someone to understand you, but it's not about who's known you longer, but about who's known you better. And you did, than most of them. I knew for a fact that you didn't like letting people go, but I wonder did you hold onto me too?
You were that part of the puzzle that completed the entire picture, you were the fresh escape from my reality.
it's still not that long to have known you, but in a way it feels so old and faded. Yes faded. Because things did change and now it's just like a movie that I keep playing on loop hoping the ending to change, I never wanted to change anything but now if I could go back, it would be that one day. That one moment.
I still long to call you up at random hours and tell you about my day , for you to call me at 3am just to shout at me for making you watch incredibly horrible movies, to you talking so passionately about stuff that you like ( which was mostly something I had to always google because you have interests in very uncommon topics), to have more amazing unplanned getaways, to being completely ourselves and insane and just being there for each other. A part of me doesn't want you to read this, but a tiny voice inside my head wants to know if you feel the same way too.
I won't write this letter with regrets, because wherever we are now, I am happy to have had known you , to have had made innumerable memories with you and have had few of the most amazing months of laughter and friendship.
I know things aren't going to be the same, you are not going to be the same, there are always going to be things coming in the way,
I remember you telling me how you're scared of people walking away and I just want to let you know , a part of me will always stay here, for you, with you.
I always dreamt for a friend like you, and I am happy it almost came true.
But who knows, maybe if it had lasted, it wouldn't be something I would be writing about :')
Yours,
Khushi.

Dear Atharv,
Everyday I wonder how I got through everything I went through before I met you. Since day one you have been by my side. I am lucky and thankful tohave you in my life. Putting up with me is like having a full time job and you have never let me down.
Every single day you make sure that you talk to me. You make sure that I’m doing good and when I’m not, you do everything to change that. The late night talks, holding me when I’m crying, listening to all the drama and problems in my life, making me laugh, and being straight up with me when I’m being an idiot are some of the reasons I can say that there is no friend like you.
Everyday I wonder how you do it. I fight A LOT, I get sassy for no reason, I’m a pain in your ass, and I add a lot to your plate everyday, yet everyday that goes by, we become closer. Having you around has helped me keep my s**t together.
I can sit on your couch, no make up, no fancy clothing, grab tacos , pig out, and watch our favourite series for hours and I won’t be freaking out about how I look or what you’re thinking of me. I’m there like a hot mess and I know you wouldn’t want it any other way. You appreciate me for who I am; the good, the bad, the ugly, and the pretty. You understand how insecure I can be and you don’t stop finding ways to make me feel amazing.
Thank you for being straight up with me and never sugar coating situations. Thank you for holding me when I’m upset. Thank you for making me smile and laugh when I’m down. Thank you for always being proud of me. Thank you for making me understand that I am amazing the way I am and that I shouldn’t let anyone else tell me different. Thank you for not giving up on me. Thank you for being you.
Yours ,
Aaryu.

Dear Pune,
I met you when my dad got transferred and I had to come down with my family. I said I met you because, you are so much more than the historical and cultural grandeur of yours. I stayed for just 2 years. From having to introduce myself and making new friends at 13 to getting to go back to my childhood friends and school at 15 was a rollercoaster ride for me. I met all kinds of people here. Friends, enemies and even frenemies. I was naive, confused and lost but the people you gave me, helped me find my way, always. Those two years spent with you are the best two years of my life.I realised that the secret to making friendships and relationships work is just being yourself. I met people while learning dance and doing art, they are the homies who never gave up on me. I learnt what friendship is and what "real" friends are because of you. A part of growing up will always nest in there no matter what.
Its mesmerizing how a place or a city can be all good or all bad just because of the friends you make there.
Thank you so much for giving me priceless friendships and unforgettable memories that I will cherish for the rest of my life.
I think you are that one friend who makes me laugh, takes me back into trance and makes me feel refreshed. My heart is always heavy when I leave you.
Also, thanks for introducing me to my most dear friend-Chitalechi Ambabarfi that never left me alone while snacking. But jokes aside, I hope to see you super soon.
Love you Pune,
Madhura.

Dear bestfriend,
I hope this letter finds you and it finds you well. Since you hate long texts and prefer calls, here's a little something for you. Because, I love annoying you. I'll try not to be a cliché.
You've seen me write poems for people who didn't deserve it. You've read me like an open book even when I wasn't very sharing. What do I even say to the person who probably knows about me more than I know myself?
You know that I don't have a sweet tooth, but I would die for a really good cheesecake and that, its cheesecake over you anytime. (Unless you're made of blueberries and cheese) You get me in a way that no one does. You know about me and my obsession with dogs and how much I hate cats and you know I hate your guts to send me snaps with all the cats that you come across. You know that one hug from you could fix each one of my problems without you even knowing about them. You knew a lot of things, except one.
You make me want to sing a cliche romantic song which you know I am not a fan of. You make me want to grow old with you. I may act like a tough guy when people ask if we're together but deep down, that's what I ever wanted. You bring me more happiness which is prolonged forever.
You make me want to crack jokes more often just to hear you laugh.
I hope you're getting the idea of what I am trying to say. If not, maybe I am the dumb one.
Not all questions are followed by the answers you expect, sometimes they're followed by the longest second of silence and a sound of your heart getting crushed into pieces. But, life often surprises you with the things you don't expect. This wasn't that time. Everything becomes helpless at this exact moment. All it took was a leap of hope and this hope shall never ever die. I'll wait for you on the other side of the story. If not in this universe, in some parallel universe.
Your almost,
Soham Kalkote.

Dearest Gogi ,
I was pretty damn sure until this moment that I could write a heartfelt letter to any of my close friends. Now that I sat down to write about you or rather to you, I suddenly cant think of anything! I still remember attending your workshop , that was the first time we actually interacted for real as until then all you were was my best friend’s friend. If it weren’t for her I never would’ve met you, and I’m eternally grateful that I did. There hasn’t been a single day when I needed you and you weren’t there literally and figuratively. Who knew we’d become best friends, I certainly didn’t. There are so many things I can thank you for but the most important thing I’d thank you for is for not killing me while riding your bike. Jokes apart gogo, I can’t ever thank you enough for keeping up with me despite knowing that I’m all about drama. There have been times where you’d ask me how my day was but selfish me never asked how your day was. I’m sorry for crying over people who left instead of valuing the ones I have. The thing I most love about you, is how amazingly humane you are, through and through. You’re real, candid and a gem of a person. I’ve never once seen a selfish side of yours and I’ve never seen you put your needs before someone you love. I remember you telling your mom that you’ve invited me over if I ever feel like running away from my family for whatever reasons. I never told you how much that meant then, but it meant more than what I can ever express . It’s crazy how much I love cleo, he’s no less than what Casper means to me. It’s equally crazy how much you mean to me, but if it weren’t for that who was gonna spoil you with yummy food. I have so much more to say, but the word limit is quite a hinderance. I’ll save some for another day. As I always say, thank you; for being you.
Yours

LOVE, this is the most overused word I have come across. We have our own ideas and definitions for this word,and to be more precise, movies have romanticised our lives to the extent that we think of love only as romance. I'd rather say LOVE IS LOVE, of many different forms. The best form of love that I have experienced is for MY BUDDIES, MERE HAQ KE HOMIES.
Ik how trendy those phrases are, but hey...
I love you so much guys, the bond we share is ''बंधन नाही नात्यांचे तरी बंध हे जन्मभराचे'', to put it in words. YOU are the ones who have taught me what it really means to love and to be loved. No wonder when any one appreciates me, I simply want to hug you, for that much have you been a Playstore to constantly UPGRADE me, pull out of situations ,be my philospher/life guru, worry about me and simply smile back when i'm all good.
Without expecting a single thing in return for whatever we have done for each other , I have learnt that 'SELFLESS LOVE EXISTS!'
All of us love each other selflessly and that's the power of our bond 'FRIENDSHIP'. AND THIS LOVE IS ABOVE ROMANCE. Words always fall short to express and put together everything into a statement.
To those who are reading this , DONT even dare to say that you've totally gotten hurt in LOVE, or that no one loves you.
LOVE ISN'T ROMANCE.
LOOK AT YOUR HOMIES FOR ONCE!
I totally mean every word and every emotion I've written.
I LOVE YOU MY BABIES.
3000*Infinity.
Yours ANU. @ Pune, Maharashtra

Dear Enana,
Eight years ago we became best friends and my life has been so different since then. You changed me as a person and made me believe in myself. I can’t imagine how things would’ve been if you weren’t in my life. A lot of things have changed since the past two years but, I will always be there for you. Even if we don’t meet every day like we used to, just remember, I am only a call away. Waking up to see your grwm (Get Ready With Me), what’s in my bag and dance videos just makes my day. I can never forget the day when we became friends. It was when I accidentally found out where you live and after that, I never left your place. I don’t think I could ever tell you how much you mean to me. And I am sorry if I ever made you feel bad, because I would never in a million years would do that on purpose. I always want you to be happy. Stop doubting about my love for you.
I do love you and always will,
Yours,
Sak @ Pune, Maharashtra

Dear Tanaya,
Disclaimer- Bad Writing Skills Ahead!
Now that I have warned you, I think I'll jump right into it.
I think I'll Start with a bit of history first, to get that Nostalgia flowing. The first time I saw you was when you came to meet "the guys" at our pg, while I was on my way out to my fresher's party. I don't think we exchanged any words then, beyond basic greetings of course.I think we barely even looked at each other.
Something happened though after that! Miraculously due to some universal force, we got familiar with each other. I think it was after my birthday "party", Where we went through quite similar incidents that left us both VERY embarrassed! (I had to bring it up, I'm sorry.)
But I think that was it! It was that one moment that basically pushed us together, & somehow made us really good friends!
I don't think I remember when we first started hanging out on our own, I just remember that I was really hesitant! I was accustomed to going on walks alone.
But soon one day led to another, & guess what, we had started hanging out, almost every single day! It got to a point where even imagining my days without you sounded a bit weird.
There's something about you! I can't seem to put my finger on it, but I just love your company! God! We have done such stupid stuff together!
You are one of the very few people who have seen the real me! I think you know what I'm talking about...
You are accepting, understanding, you have strong ideals and rules that make me want to admire you! And you are so beautiful! Honestly...You take care of me like I'm a little boy, tolerating my tantrums & all the weird things I do!
Also, HOW ARE YOU SO SMALL?!
Even though you act like my mother, I feel like I should be the one protecting and taking care of you!
I know I don't call, & I am surprised how you don't give up even after that, and it makes me want to come back to you even more.
I don't know if I'm supposed to end this letter with a punchline or like the greatest compliment ever, but know that I really care for you. And whenever you ever need me, just reach out, I may lack useful skills, but I definitely love you.
-Akash Anarchy Tandon @ Bangalore, India

An open letter to my sister.
To my home away from home,
I'm writing you this letter on friendship day as you've been with me right from the start, my first ever best friend!
I fall short of words to describe you and for the ways you've had my back and how my love for you is in an unconditional form.
In friendships, people always seek out those who you can be weird with, laugh with, argue or fight with and I have lucked out in my friends department because I have you. I found my friend in you without even having to look for it.
I have always tried to be you in every manner, in studies, in my friends circle, in my own life! Basically you are my role model and an excellent example of how to be.
As they say ' sisters are the second mothers' you've proved it to be 100% true, if given a chance to replace you, trust me I'd never do that and I just want to say that I'd never want or have it any other way.
Happy friendship day to my 1st ever friend I never want to get rid of. I love you.
- Aisha

Dearest Pujo,
Ssup? That was the first thing you asked me when you first texted on SMS 7 years ago. And I guess not much has changed since then. You still ask me that though, only it’s on video call, where we can see the names Pujo and Andya and NOT Pururava Joshi and Anaya Mapari.
If I genuinely start naming things that we used to do back then, this letter will be the size of ‘The Woman in White,’ so I’m going to keep it short. Okay so first things first, I’m listening to our song while I am writing this,just to get inspired. It’s not helping me, because you know we both get lost every time that “Oye hoye” comes along. Oh, and I re-watched ‘The Office’ for I don’t know, the millionth time, maybe?
Because this Pam was missing her Jim, and wanted to do something special for you! I hope this letter makes up for the days we didn’t get to speak, because you know, we are busy people. Me with my studies, and you with your numerous games. Right now, I would’ve written about how you are like Michael to my Julianne from ‘My Best Friend’s Wedding,’ but you STILL haven’t seen the movie,have you? I bet my ass you haven’t even watched the trailer which I sent you. I know you’re smiling right now, because you completely forgot about this movie. Don’t pretend. I know you too well.
You’re hopeless. But for now, I can only hope to meet you soon, and listen to your rants about fascism, books, movies, my love life and your singlehood. But until then, miss you, Jimbo! Search for an Avengers hoodie for me, and call me ASAP. Love you loads!
From, Andya. @ Pune, Maharashtra

Dearest Samruddhi,
Friendship is not about who you've known the longest. It's about who walked into your life,said “I'm here for you” and proved it.
We have been friends for over 5 years now and the craziness has only been doubled with each passing day. Meeting you is a blessing, whether I have had a bad day or a good day. All I do is call you and share all those little things. We share such a bond where feelings go from heart to heart. There are days where we don't talk to each other at all and there are days where we can't stop talking about the stupidest memories. Having you by my side through thick and thin proved to me that all you need is that one person who makes your life better by just being in it.
Like every relationship has fights and misunderstandings, we too had them but keeping the ego aside and coming forward to solve it is what we did for OUR FRIENDSHIP. Thank you Samruddhi for being such a great friend and never leaving me in my hardest times. We definitely do not need a friendship day to know what we mean to each other but thought of penning down this for you! I love you? I love you.
Yours,
Ne.
