This week was very busy so I am pulling up a picture from last year where the orange pink sunrise is any day more cheery than the haze outside my balconey.

1-1-11,
11-1-11
1-11-11
11-11-11

These four “mystical ” dates have driven several people to a frenzy with the significance of these numbers. At the beginning of the year there was an SMS and email doing the rounds saying that if you added  the last two digits of the year of your birth to the age you will be this year ( 2011), the sum will equal 111.


Several magical things were supposed to happen on these dates – obviously nothing magical happened to me but today, the last number in the series may herald the birth of Aishwarya Rai Bacchan’s first born if the newspapers are to be believed.


Apparently like all magical numbers, this date too has several babies lined up for Caeserian section births to avail of the benefits of being born on such lucky dates. But unlike the millions of unknown mothers, this time we have a celebrity mother already in Seven Hills Hospital waiting for her first born.
