Time-travel with Music

My Meditations

Music takes you places. Music is a drug. Music lets you time-travel. Music brings old memories back.

This time we are going back to winters of 2018 and 2019 during my time in Chandigarh at Infosys.

The songs I am listening to are:
Sakhiyaan by Maninder Bhutto
Daaru badnaam by Param Singh
And Lamborghini by Doorbeen

When I hear 'Sakhiyaan', I recall the day I listened to it on repeat the entire day from morning till evening. It was a winter morning. Probably Friday, with less crowd on the office floor and less people on the campus.

I listened to this song that day on repeat while walking in the Infosys campus -- in the backyard full of greenery and picturesque setting.

And as I think of that time, I think of Shalu Yadav.

Next, as I listen to this song 'Daaru Badnaam', I remember the winter mornings in the house in Manimajra, my first rental accommodation. 
I remember I had this song as my alarm tone, and I used to wake up to this song. Hummed by the singers in the opening. 
And it is winter today and I am lying in bed in the same blanket/comforter which I also had at that time.

And I remember walking on the floor in formal attire, black pants and light colored shirt, outside the prestiged secure lab called “Digital Garage”.

And as I think of that time, I think of Priyanka.

From the song “Lamborghini”, I get the same vibes as my time in Chandigarh while I was working with Amitabh and the team of Kajal Singh, Megha Gupta, Akhil Sharma, Sahib Singh, Asmita and Ravi Bhaskar. Amazing people… except that I lost contact with all of them. Ravi is added on my Facebook and maybe some of these guys are added on my LinkedIn but I miss that time with them.

These guys tried to teach me to live life joyfully, enjoy work, have fun and not be so serious all the time. I miss these guys.

When I moved from Mobileum to Infosys, I used to reminisce about my time at Mobileum, and now when I have moved past Infosys, I reminisce about my time at Infy.
