Dear Dad,
We are all far away today, but our wishes are with you on your special day. Happy Birthday!
Love,
Dhenu & Mitesh
This is important information for anyone who was once an Indian citizen but now has naturalized or obtained other country’s citizenship. On June 1, 2010, the US government issued a new law requiring everyone to obtain a “Surrender Certificate” canceling their Indian passports (even expired ones) if there is no CANCELLATION stamp on your Indian passport.
Please read: http://news.rediff.com/report/2010/jun/02/citizenship-rules-changes-relief-to-indian-community.htm
For anyone who has obtained US Citizenship on or before May 31, 2010, you only have to pay $20 fee. All those who obtain foreign citizenship after June 1, 2010, your fee for obtaining Surrender certificate will be $175.00.
Travel will NOT be impacted. Anyone who already has an OCI card will not need to present a Surrender certificate at the consulate in order to travel to or from India. However, it seems like in the future, penalties will be issued for those who fail to obtain these Surrender certificates.
Everyone, please check your Indian passports to see if it was ever officially canceled.
On this your special day, I wish much joy for you. I pray for smiles and love, for friends that are true. I pray for sunshine, for warmth and tenderness. I pray for unexpected moments of joy and laughter for many years to come.
Happy Birthday!

That’s the link to book. If anyone takes advantage of this deal, let me know. It’s great for December travel, when the rates are usually very high.
The sparkle of the morning dew,
The joy experienced by few.
A ray of light through the clouds,
Just your smile to ease any doubts.
The pinnacle of the summer heat,
The warmth of your embrace defeats.
The unity at the shoreline,
The bond of your heart with mine.
The breath of crisp morning air,
The trust that you and I share.
The budding of a young flower,
The unfolding of a new life, now ours.
The touch of a light breeze,
The feeling that your kiss leaves.
The gifts from the heavens above,
Through you in the form of love.

Happy Belated 29th Birthday, Mitesh.
