Twenty years, still us.01 / 20

A life, in little chapters

The years that
made us.

From sharing a classroom to sharing the things life never taught us in one.

01

Where it began

The Classroom Days

Where our story began.

02

The in-between years

Growing Up Together

From classroom lessons to life's lessons.

03

A sacred ritual

The Dress Checks

Asking each other whether an outfit looks good. Obviously, the answer matters.

04

The late-night edition

The Gossip Era

Random gossip, late-night calls, and endless discussions.

05

Figuring it out

Life Gets Real

Growing pains, decisions, adulthood, and everything in between.

06

All these years later

Still Us

Different phases, changing lives, but the same comfort.

A small collection, kept close

A collection of
little moments.

Twenty years of friendship and somehow we still have so few pictures together.

Somehow, we were too busy making memories to take more pictures.

The moments between the frames

Some moments
move.

Because some memories deserve more than a photograph.

The everyday things are the big things

The very Vidhi-and-bro
things.

A few words, after all these years

A letter to my
favourite human.

For Vidhi, on your birthday

Dear Vidhi,

Happiest birthdayyyyy Broo ❤️🫶 20 years of knowing each other and sometimes I genuinely wonder where all these years went. From being little kids in the same classroom to growing up and discussing literally everything about life, we've come a long way. From sending each other pictures of dresses and asking is this looking good to late night calls, random gossip, venting about life and discussing how early we've grown up. It's crazy how we went from classroom lessons to life's lessons and now we're sitting here discussing things we never thought we'd have to figure out at this age 😭

We've seen each other through so many phases, the good days, bad days, stupid decisions, endless rants, random happiness and everything in between. And I think one of the best things about having you in my life is that no matter how much things change, there's always that comfort of having you around. We can literally go from discussing something so serious to talking absolute nonsense in the next five minutes. That's us and I wouldn't change it for anything.

Also how do we have 20 YEARS of friendship and still have so less pictures together 🫠 I swear we need to work on that because we have so many memories but hardly any pictures to prove it. I guess we've been too busy living all these moments rather than capturing them.

On your birthday I just want you to know how much you mean to me and how grateful I am that we've grown up together. I hope you get everything your heart wishes for, all the happiness, love, success and peace that you deserve. And no matter how old we get, how busy life becomes or how different our lives look, remember your bro is ALWAYS here. For every late night rant, every little achievement, every breakdown, every dress check and every random life update. You never have to think twice before calling me.

Love you to tons and tons broooskii Here's to 20 years of us and a lifetime more of friendship. ❤️🫂

Forever your bro.

And there is still so much ahead

20 years down.
Forever to go.

Here's to more late-night calls, more gossip, more dress checks, more random adventures, more laughter, and a lifetime of being there for each other.

Forever your bro.
