Chuni Goswami appears !
Only once did l had the opportunity to interact with the icon of Bengal if not India. It was probably during the mid 60s when l went to meet one of my friends in The State Bank of India's Headoffice, Strand Road, Calcutta. My friend took me to a huge Hallroom which was once Sirajjudulla's 'Nach Ghar' said my friend. We were having a bit of chitchat when suddenly the Hall became quieter as if some VIP had entered. Yes it was none other than Chuni Goswami with his everlasting smile. My friend quickly went up to him and introduced me-before l could react. Goswami said something about our family connection with Union Bank which later became The State Bank of India. I was a young man and least bothered about our family history, etc. After few minutes he left and the Hallroom staffs became busy once again !
