Tirupati
The Venkateswara Temple, Tirupati, witnessed thousands of devotees everyday. Her parents came here too with their own share of 'mannat.' Nandini was too young to know what that meant. Her attention was fixated at a group of people shaving their head.
While her parents looked away, Nandini ran towards the spot, and pocketed a fistful of hair.
Later that evening, her parents conversed, "May God cure our daughter soon."
Nandini, however, was excitedly trying out different styles by covering her head with those hair. Chemotherapy had stolen her tresses, but she was happy again today.
Her 'mannat' was fulfilled.

Mumbai
His movie was releasing all over the country. He took his Mom for the First Day First Show screening. Being from a poor family, his mother had never visited a cinema hall. He wanted her to witness his success today.
The cinema hall was packed. Audience clapped in almost every scene.
Post the climax, his Mom asked, "The movie was nice, but where are you in it?"
He pointed towards the screen. The end credits rolling out had his name in bold: "Spot Boy: Vikas Anand."
His Mom had never been happier. Her son had made it into Bollywood.
