TULIP
KINSHIP
The desire to be and have a sister is profound one that may have everything or nothing to do with the family a woman is born in. It is a desire to know and be known by someone who shares blood, history, dreams, common grounds, unknown adventures of future, dark secrets and the glassiest beads of truth. Pooja and Mala Gurbani are two such sisters who are instinctively linked by blood, love and dreams. They maybe two different individuals but their likeness come shinning through!
The Unbreakable Bond of Two Sisters and same love for fashion.
They have grown up with each other, side by side, and as far as they can remember, they have always told each other everything and anything, sometimes even finishing each other’s sentences. Whenever one would struggle or find themselves in a dilemma, the other would be right there to help pick them up. Wherever one of them went, it was assumed the other would be close behind. Although two different people with their own unique personalities, they are still associated with the same people, have common friends 50 JULY, 2013
Upbringing With a difference of three years between them, elder sister Pooja pampers her sister to the hilt but says mala was dominating and would nag her all the time. “I think dad loved me more and mom was more partial towards Pooja” says Mala. But Pooja disagrees, adds “I asked dad when you were away and he confessed he loves me more” (laughs) there you see the hint of something universal, a typical but hilarious topic between two siblings forever. “Pooja is very organized, she wants her space neat and clutter free and I am more of opposite, more easy going” adds Mala. “we never fought very much, except for very petty issues, we were together most of the time, she knew all my friends, I knew hers, we hung out together a lot, plus she never made me feel I was her elder sister, infact she was more dominating and my parents supported her saying she was more mature” says Pooja.
As Individuals Pooja is a 22 year old graduate married and with immense support from her husband she carries on her father’s business as a plant manager of their chocolate factory, mala on other hand has done her masters, assists her father in his business as her sister but also pursues her dream and passion for journalism, as a senior news representer for CVR news.
