Niranjan Prakash, over, but never out



The Niranjan I knew was sore for the most part.
He bitched about me endlessly for the most part.
He was mean, petty and vicious for the most part.

However, he was insanely talented and bewilderingly intelligent. He commanded my attention and respect for that alone.

The maverick, emotionally broken but intellectually too far evolved for today’s snowflake dynamic, would roll his eyes and hit me with a snarky come back as I would try to argue some global socio-political dynamic, or question a deeply Marathi tradition.

Niranjan Prakash, I will miss you. As will my wife and kids.
