So my dad told me recently his version of this story. There is one person really at the at the center of the marriage. His name is Shrikashen Bagade.
And I'd heard this name, Bagade, before, you know. And so I was like, can you tell me about him? Like, who was this person? Was it a whole family? He said, oh, well, my father, so my grandfather on my dad's side, used to tutor people in math. He was a math teacher, but he used to also do, like, you know, tutoring. And Sri Kishen Bagade was one of the people that he tutored.
And I was like, oh, okay, so that's how you met him. He was my dad's student. And then later, actually, when I was older, when I was in school, he tutored me in math. And I was like, oh, that's interesting. How come your dad didn't just tutor you in math?
And he said, yeah. And he said, oh, well, you know, he was older and I was at this school and it was closer for me to just go to his house and get tutored by him. And I was like, wow, that's so cool that this person who your dad tutored then ended up becoming your tutor. And my dad's like, yeah, also he's also, you know, my cousin.
How is that not the? And so then it turns out it's my, you know, he's my dad's first cousin. He's the son of my dad's sister. So, yeah, these are the kinds of details that emerge much later. Yeah. When my dad went to the US to get his PhD, he was studying there and he was in grad school. He got permission from his professor, the one who ran the lab where he worked.
My dad was studying food science. He got permission to go back to India for 30 days. And my dad thought he would go and, you know, try and look for a job for post-graduation. Okay. And so he sent his resume to his family and said, like, can you please, you know, just like pass this around and see if there's anybody that is hiring.
Also, if you happen to know of any suitable, you know, marriage prospects, I'd also be open to that.
Meanwhile, my mom, 24 years old, had just finished her master's degree in literature. She went home to her dad's place, her mom and dad's place, in a town called Osmanabad. And at that time, Bagade uncle was working there as an engineer. An adult working and... He went with his boss, who was the, I guess, like, executive engineer of the city or some kind of something.
And my mom's dad was a judge. So there was some kind of level of, you know, city official friendship. I don't know. They were having some kind of party or gathering at their house. And Bugatti uncle went with his boss to my mom's father's house. And they were all talking and his boss asked my grandfather, my maternal grandfather, oh, you know, how's your family?
I think I heard your daughter just finished school. How's she doing? And my grandfather said, yeah, you know, she's good. She's good. We're trying to find somebody for her. It's been a little tough. My mom was very picky. And this was true even then. Picky about everything. And so they were having a little bit of a hard time finding somebody that would work.
So then Bugatti uncle and his boss leave the party. And right as they're leaving... Um, they haven't gone far at all, according to my dad. And then, um, he says to his boss, you know, actually I know somebody, uh, maybe I, would it be okay? I, I actually have this, uh, cousin or maybe he called him his former two T. Yeah.
And they went back to the house and I was like, oh, the next day he's like, oh, no, no, no. They hadn't really gone far yet. So they just turned back around. So same day, same night, they turn back around and go back in and say, actually, we know somebody who comes from a good family. He's a nice guy. He's coming back to the U.S. in a couple weeks or whenever it was going to be, soon.
He was coming back to the U.S. And so then my grandfather the next day went on a pre-Google deep dive of my dad and tried to do all the research that he could about the Hereway family and... Oh my... And then they... They met my dad at the Bugatti's house when he came to visit. That was sort of like neutral territory, I guess.
Right. It's like, yeah, I have a resume slash dating profile right here.
Yeah, they met my dad at the Bugatti house. So my dad was in India for 30 days. By the end of those 30 days, they were married.
I couldn't get that information, but we've got less than three weeks to work with.
High stakes first date. But gossip was a necessary component to this whole thing happening.
Yeah, it's true. I think that can't be denied. Yeah.
I loved it.
Yeah, I'm scared, but I'm ready.
