Virgo

A fun-loving, talkative, computer junky, party animal who just about enjoys everything but sports...hehe.
Luckily, Shikha enjoys all above mentioned interests and hobbies too. But the best thing about our relationship is that she lets me flirt around a little bit... naah :-) She's really cool though!!

Don't have much life lately because of these highly involving Bridal Shows. Want to definitely change that. Right now our lives revolve around... 'Everything Wedding'.

We are working on publishing the Dulhan Magazine which would be releasing soon. Next DulhanExpo dates are updated on the site... www.dulhanexpo.com.

April 9, 2006 > Huntington Hilton, Long Island, NY; April 30, 2006 > Doubletree Newark Airport, NJ; September 24 > Huntington Hilton, Long Island, NY; Annaul International Grand Dulhan Expo > Garden State Exhibit Center, Somerset, NJ

We just opened our First Full Service Beauty Salon & Spa in Roselle, New Jersey, called 'Moulin Rouge', with a hint of French Renaissance Era's Warmth & Sexyness.

Enough business talk!! We really miss those get-togethers we used to have in our house, need to restart that, and have Kulraj Anand Ji there bartending... and charming the ladies... hehe. We are working on a weekly Nightclub deal for our whole network of Friends, Vendors, Models & Media Contacts to hang out and let our hair down once a week.

I know we are really over-ambitious, but ideally would like to base our life on the 'Gita Saar' which loosely says "Don't be possessive about your worldly belongings, nothing is yours, you didn't come to this world with anything, you can't take anything with you... So, enjoy and live a rightous life while you are here."

Would love to meet other like-minded, fun, artistic, creative, energetic, full of life people to network, collaborate, partner up, make friends, hang out, party and socialize with. You can email me at sumitarya@aol.com

Oh, if you really meant which person in particular I would like to meet, in that case... wouldn't mind meeting Bipasha Basu and taking her out for Dinner, and BTW John and Shikha are not invited... hehe. Hey you asked :-) you don't want me to give a diplomatic and dishonest answer, do you?
