About her :

An anals pisth and hence the obvious pet of all math Profs. Aarthi grabbed the gold medal in the first year. But pandu she’s not. She’s always maintained a very good balance between work and play and attended every college event, group outings and enthusiastically participated in cultural and sports events. Crowned Ms. Photogenic of EEE ‘99 Aarthi believed more in eye-to-eye communication. Throughout the four years and especially during the final year tour, she treated us with never-ending entertainment with her variety of instant expressions. Her extra-ordinary narrating skills (the legendary jing bing) also came under limelight during the tour.

About him :

It can take you hours to get a sensible reply to a question from this guy, but don’t underestimate him. This guy is an eccentric genius whose acads just don’t reveal his potential- the topper will surely vouch for this. Acads. apart, this guy is also good at laughing at teachers during viva sessions. He also strikes terror when on his vehicle and can scare the living daylights out of his pillion riders with his dare devilry on his bike. Amar’s hobbies are nature watching and relaxing at the beach and he loves to play tennis and cricket.

About him :

Looks can be very deceptive – so very true in this case. Admired by members of the fairer sex, both juniors and yearmates for his "million dollar" smile, this µP pisthu moves around with those million dollars pasted on his face! An enthusiastic cricketer, he holds the distinction of being the only person from the class of EEE’99 to have been a member of the AU cricket team (never mind the fact that he did not play a single university match).

Need we ‘say’ more?

 Back to top

About her :

Anba is the most calm, cool and well-poised girl of EEE. But silence doesn’t speak much for her. She is also capable of mischief. For instance, she silently kept a kombu for Sarath Kumar in a group photo, the girls took with him in a marriage party!! A disciplined hard-worker, she used to come to the class a little late, but the moment the class got over hurried back to her favorite place – her hostel room (it won the best room award in the final year). Anba has made a point to watch every ‘Tameel’ movie (that’s how she says Tamizh!) released in town. She loves gardening, listening to music, reading tameel novels and freaking out in the beach with friends.

Grin, blush, collars up!

Back to top

About him :

Not your idea of a model student, though he happens to be the topper of our class. He looks more at home on the cricket field than in the X-hall-but let’s not take away any credit from him. This guy is a real brain who just missed the bus to IIT (actually he forgot!). Anyway IIT’s loss was AU (or let’s say) EEE’s gain. It sure does take some guts to reverse bump Stanford University (a cardinal sin elsewhere in the world), Because that’s exactly what Nattamai has done. Acads apart, this genius would gladly give away his 9.3 CGPA to play a cricket match on the SPIC ground-doesn’t really understand his CGPA’s worth, does he!!

You said it :

"If only I could turn back time, I would like to relive my childhood days"

Her cute giggles and blushes sure endorse that.

"LAN in obsolete, I’m updating to internet"

Mommy, mujhe bhi internet laa do na!

Back to top

About her :

An ardent collector and reader of P.G. Wodehouse, she is herself a corrupted version of the author. The empress of extempore kadis, Aruna has brightened up many dull moments with her instant funny repartees & also unknowingly driven many people up the WALL(!). She’s also a very dedicated student with and eye for details & a very good fielder in softball cricket – she never went for the ball, the ball came to her. Aruna has got a melodious voice & loves singing but modesty kept her from exposing that talent except in the first year. Her enthusiastic support and presence has made many of her friends(including her batchmates)work wonders !!!

 Back to top

About him :

Fondly known as ‘Milkji’ for his babyface looks, Balaji certainly proves the proverb, "Face is the index of the mind", wrong. His excellent managerial abilities were brought to the fore during the final year when he was the class rep – he actually did a good job of cancelling classes and keeping the Profs. happy. An excellent allrounder in cricket he can bat and bowl very well -–though not as well as his lookalike, Azhar Mehmood. He also plays basketball very well and is an excellent dribbler on court. The farewell party was a revelation as far as his dancing abilities were concerned – the dancing duo of Balaji and Anand was a big hit at the breakup party.

"Ours is the best dept in the university, equipped with the best faculty. I am proud to belong to the electrical dept."

So are we!

 

 

 Back to top

About him :

Popularly known as Buski, this guy from Trichy is a great hard worker, sincere and motivated in all his chores. He was the placement rep and he performed this arduous assignment with aplomb. He has the reputation of always living up to expectations in whatever he does. His class

notes were one of the most sought after for photocopying before exams. A very helpful person, you could always count on him to assist you in difficult situations. The backbone of his lab batch, he was responsible for seeing his batch thro’ the tedious viva sessions on most occasions.

You said it :

"About four years in college I want to say that I got well equipped technically and learnt all fundas of Elec. Engg. Very clearly but will anyone believe me??!!"

Ya, that's quite difficult to digest.

 

Back to top

About her :

Calm, placid and fun loving, Chitra would give you new definitions of these adjectives. Calm and placid, yes her brilliant eyes would surely suggest
that. But the fact remains that every girl sitting next to her got into trouble with the Profs. for making noise in the class (the other culprit being Chitra, of course.). And fun loving she is. Who else can have the wit to think a laser beam to be a firefly (minmini poochi)! But when it comes to studies, Chitra is very serious. Not to speak of her love for playing cards and carrom. Even during the late, crucial hours of exam time if anyone could detach her from the carrom board it were the hostel monkeys – they pinched her carrom coins off!

You said it :

" Always have a finger on the Esc key & the Ctrl key in the keyboard of life."

With her around, it was her finger on the Ctrl key and ours on the Esc key!

 

 

 Back to top

About her :

Geets is a well-known personality in the campus, but very few people know her well enough. Very harsh and strict from outside, she is a very genuine and soft person on the inside. Known for her level-headedness and decision making capabilities, she was aptly selected as the secretary of SEEE ’99 and conducted Waves ’99 successfully. A computer nerd, she is happiest with the keyboard and mouse and has helped many (esp ME students and faculty) out with the contraption. A discerning connoisseur of the bunk coffee, she was often hallucinated by it! Her hobbies apart from interior designing, includes painting faces and taking snaps of the same (LAN, Mubeen & Sanban have been the worst affected)

About him :

A very inquisitive person who always believes in applying the 5W + 1H rule in everything he deals with. Though a resident of the VI block, he prefers spending his time trying his luck at the Las Vegas of the VII block. A very shy person in front of girls, he had a tough time during lab classes being the only guy in his batch. A regular at the basketball court in the evenings, he is an excellent shooter who can score points at will.

 Back to top

About him :

He is the sort of person our Profs. would approve as a genuine Guindian – In these four years he has always been systematic, sincere & dedicated in his work. His day is all planned out to the second and sticks to this schedule everyday. A word of appreciation is due to Hari for managing to maintain this daily schedule in the hostel where such a lifestyle is decidedly alien. Not only has he excelled in acads, but has also represented Pondicherry in tennis tournaments. Very few people know that he can play the Veena with expertise. He has been instrumental in organizing most of the EEE tours.

 Back to top

About him :

His looks may frighten you, but the moment he speaks to you, all your apprehensions will vanish for he speaks as gently as a child. He made full use of his muscular physique in the microprocessor lab to unscrew the tightly fitted kits. He was a pet of the digital electronics Prof., and arguably the best in digital logic basics. His room played host as the Las Vegas of the VIIth block hostel where all hostelites come to try their luck. He was the unofficial sentry of the VIIth block TV during the night. He was also the wake-up caller for guys like Sakthivel and Baskar and they owe him a lot for his ever-dependable wake-up call before he went to sleep.

You said it :

"Bunk is a place where we get hot things:

hot coffee, hot bajjis and Hot "MATTERS"!"

That’s one of the EEE hot shots talking !!!

 

Back to top

About her :

Inba is a very frank, friendly and outgoing person. She’s one of the few who made EEE ‘99 well known in the campus for extra-curriculars. Her dance performance could pull a full house anytime, anyday. - Viveka audi will sure miss her grace and presence. While travelling in a bus, she was once offered a role in a Tele-serial on account of her allegedly innocent face, but she denied it endorsing the saying that appearances can be deceptive. Our class notice boards were often privileged with her literary outpours. Possessing marked leadership qualities, she was the lady VP of N.S.S. unit V and the captain for softball, cricket and throw-ball teams.

About him :

A very quiet person, he tends to keep his thoughts to himself. He is one of the most intelligent persons in the class. When he gets down to read the basics, he starts literally from the scratch and this makes him really strong in his fundas. He can handle people like the revered hot shots of the dept very confidently. He has also surprised the Profs. during the Electronics lab viva with his strong fundas. A good trouble – shooter, he can easily find out where the problem lies in the circuitry. He would be the happiest person in the world if the first hour classes were done away with.

Back to top

About him :

Better known as Gundan for obvious reasons, he reminds you of a coconut – tough exterior, soft interior. He was the object of envy of all guys until the 2nd year when the evil one cast a spell and put him out of favour with the fairer sex. That really did hurt his poor tender heart, but nevertheless he’s all smiles and animation throughout the day. Juggie has an uncanny knack of doing the right things the wrong way. Don’t be misled by his frame – he’s an excellent dancer who never loses an opportunity to shake a leg or two and has to be literally tied down if ever the Backstreet Boys cassette is played in his vicinity. Juggie is also a fantastic cook who specializes in smoked items - his secret recipe of noodles on smoke coirmat is available for those of you who believe in the saying – "Life is a risk – risk it!".

About him :

If asked to express their opinion of electrical subjects, most EEE folk would honestly confess as to how these monsters have driven the living daylights out of them. This man, however, would have a different opinion. His penchant for electrical subjects, electrical machines in particular, is simply irrepressible. He laughs too often during class letting everyone know that his dentition is as good as any close-up model’s. He might have occasionally taken some stick from Profs. for laughing but in the end, always had the last laugh.

About him :

Sheer determination and will power epitomize this guy’s character. NTK or Kodakku (as he is known) will stick to his guns and accomplish whatever he has taken up, against all odds if he feels he is in the right. A pisthu at Unix and Networking, he was one person who really put his heart and soul into his project work. He is the M.F.Hussain minus the beard and white hair of our class since he is absolutely crazy about Madhuri. Has had mixed luck in AU as far as his Gajagamini is concerned.

Back to top

About him :

Hardly does a soul call him by his actual name ever since he got Nicknamed "Junior" The name wouldn’t make much sense unless one actually observed the aura of childish exuberance associated with him. He is at his fluent best when writing an exam under tremendous pressure & has gone on to get more than decent grades from absolutely nowhere. Titles "GEM IN EEE’S CROWN" and "GENTLEMAN OF EEE" have been conferred on him. Fancies himself as a nimble athlete in spite of his indifferent stature. His notebooks are completely saturated with cricket details (would have fetched him a fortune, had they been published).

About him :

The GPS of Chennai City – you will never get lost in this big bad city with this guy around. He knows the ins and outs of Chennai like the back of his palm, inspite of hailing from Madurai. When not sleeping, (which is rare) he can split your wits with his Maha – Kadi talk. Travelling and sleeping apart, Krishnan’s favorite pastimes are evenings at hockey and football matches. He holds the record for having slept non-stop for 18 hours and being the only rep to be elected in absentia (He was sleeping in the hostel.)

Back to top

About him :

In short LAN, this guy is a mix of brains and brawn – the former in a greater degree. MMC, AU, IBT – you name it, he got it. They say eccentricity is the hallmark of a genius. Very apt in this case, where LAN prefers scaling the hostel walls to reach his room rather than use the conventional stairs and spends time talking to arachnids in and around his room. His pet passions include calligraphy of the walls of his room and of course, sleeping. God doesn’t exist for him, Stephen Hawkins does.

Back to top

About him :

Hailing from Shillong, Mang is another student of EEE’99 who has made the class popular in the campus through his music. He is an excellent guitarist. He prefers heavy metal & hard rock music, which normally results in complaints from his neighbours in the hostel. But he has proven his mettle in the field by playing with the college band and the IIT band in Sarang ’99. He is a good footballer too, but recently shifted his sporting interests from football to basketball to further his personal interests. Mang is a cool guy (he says so) with an easy-to- approach attitude and he loves frank talk.

About her :

She is one of the beautiful belles of EEE – tall with dimple cheeks, big eyes (her sockets deserve credit for holding them) and hence aptly called the Kashmir ki kali. She is very hard working and topped the final semester (ALL IS WELL THAT ENDS WELL) A very straightforward and strong willed person, she was ‘outstanding’ student in her lab classes. She’s known for her enthusiastic ‘come on yaar’ style of talking and revealed her leg-pulling skills in the ragging sessions in the final year tour. A member of the 4-1 mux, Meera loves reading and listening to music.

About him :

An Aamir Khan look-alike (though this snap belies it!), he is very much appreciated for his good looks. To many he is an enigma, but don’t judge him by his looks. His command over English (proven by his 677 in TOEFL)has won him many accolades. He transforms into a thorough professional when it comes to VJing. A machines lab exponent, he gave Mr.Sriraman a run for his basics during lab vivas. He thinks he’s the world’s best psychologist on women. Though, this helped a couple of his friends, it deserted him when he required it most. An ardent fan of rock and jazz, he wouldn’t miss a jazz concert (!) for the world!!!

About him :

Popularly known as ‘Aravinda’ this plump guy is well-worthy of the name. A captain’s delight, Murali can play some exquisite cricketing shots & win matches singe-handedly on his day! His other interests range from playing cards at the Las Vegas of VII block to taking turns with Young in guarding the block TV throughout the night. He is an expert at writing exams with points collected from pandus like Sakthivel just before the exams and scoring more than them in the end. Recruited by the "Times of India" we hope to see this guy making headlines everyday!

About him :

A helping and caring person is what he is. You name the job and he’ll do it in a flash, be it writing records or drawing graphs for lazy batchmates such as Mubeen. It was pure grit and determination (it had nothing at all to do with a girl) that made this guy change from an obese to a moderately good-looking guy! He thinks he is Ajay Devgan and hopes to be as lucky as him. Pairing with Jegan (his dancing guru) he has lifted the spirits of people at many parties and festivals. He’s also the most sought after guy in the VI block, esply by the Mech junta.

About him :

A very mysterious guy, try analyzing him and you would wish you hadn’t started. A quiet person, he can be an excellent friend once the ice barrier around him melts. Inspite of his short stature, he plays basketball extremely well, and was seen at the courts almost everyday. He believes in framing his own time table for classes and we believe lab classes are not included in his busy schedule.

About him :

"You are 20 minutes late," exclaimed the proctor. "So what? " pat came the reply from the stocky man with a "care a damn" attitude and an inflammable temper. If ever you think there is something, which can possibly perturb this person, then you are sadly mistaken. This extrovert is the pivotal element in making his cricket fever spread around the class. An acute imbalance exists between the time he spends analyzing Indian Cricket and the time he spends studying for his tests. Strongly believes that CGPA is not the right index to gauge a person’s academic proficiency.

That’s Nithya for you – the right mix of beauty and brains.

 Back to top

About her :

Nithya is a cheerful, hard-working and fun-loving girl. Though she often gets excited over Sangee’s yarns and intrigued with Viji’s problems. No one has ever seen her getting annoyed with anyone. She and Meera took sincere and identical notes in class, but after each test one could find both of them bewildered over the fact that none of their answers matched each other. Her hobbies are playing cards, computer games and cooking and would probably treat you for tasting her dishes (she holds the record for having given maximum number of treats). She’s helped many a girl with last minute brain-stuffing before the tests. With her inquisitiveness and dedication, she’s sure to reach the summit.

About him :

This royal scion has always given an extra fillip to the EEE class. He is anything but immune to flatteries. Likes to show a bit of Americanism in everything he does. He believes that the four years of college life is neither enough to learn EEE nor interact with EEE gals. He takes great pride in his tall stature. But, when it comes to computer programming, this guy is a genius. You can expect the most uncommon and quite an indigenous algorithm to the toughest of problems.

A lot of nervous wrecks before an exam have consulted him for his expertise for he has got the most uncomplicated approach towards facing an exam of any magnitude. He has tried his hand at all popular games and once caught the physics Prof. Unawares by telling him he loved playing cards more than anything else. He is one of the programming pisthus in our class.

About him :

He is a very calm looking guy who has set up certain goals to achieve, which we are sure he will. He believes in the saying ‘Anger is one letter short of danger’ which is why you can never see him loose his cool even in the tightest of situations. He believes in the typical guindian ideology of maintaining a decent CGPA by striving hard to obtain photocopies of classnotes on the edge of exams. Acads apart, he is also an excellent fast bowler whose pace and swing has led to the downfall of many a batsman and set victories for the EEE cricket team.

About him :

If you’ve been searching for a guy who has used his tongue to the barest minimum during his entire tenure at college, this guy must be your man. Never expect anything more than a Yes or No answer from him. Electrical science is his pet aversion. Even the very word electrical kind of gets on his nerves. He uses his class hours judiciously to enrich his computer knowledge. He solely shoulders the burden of doing lab experiments because of his indifferent batchmates. He feels that students of CEG need a respite from frequently held assessment tests.

About her :

Another computer (esp internet) nerd, priya is one of the eccentrics of EEE ‘99. She has embarrassed many a teacher with a ‘Happy Teacher’s Day’ and many a guy with a namaste when they extended their hand for a polite hand-shake. Punctuality personified, she finds it a waste of time to grace the department and take notes when there are better places like RCC, net-center etc to exercise her fingers. She never bothers her limbs otherwise. Always on her deadly hero puch she can never be seen walking. Priya is an ardent cricket enthusiast, a ghazal lover & is also interested in philosophy and has given valuable advice (what’s the harm in listening?) to many in need.

About her :

Few can actually match him when it comes to all round abilities. He is a jack of all trades and also a master of some. Not only can he power the tennis ball for winners from the baseline but can also create sublime musical bliss while playing on the veena. This state level tennis pro has brought many a laurel to CEG. He pores over his texts like hell before an exam. Rajan believes that not doing well in an exam hall is not the end of the road. He could always increase the tally of marks after getting the papers too. He pleads, cajoles, pesters (u name it!) the teacher to get more marks on his paper.

A devoted environmentalist, she terrorized all her close ones with the ‘keep your surroundings clean’ slogan so much that they always made sure Ranji wasn’t around before getting rid of the crumpled tea cups at the bunk.

A very helpful person, Sakthivel was also ready to help anyone with doubts in the subject. He’s also an expert at explaining complex electrical concepts clearly before exams- Murali & co., would vouch for that. A hardworker, he showed total dedication and sincerity in completing lab assignments unlike his batchmates.

A cool customer when it comes to handling Profs., he promptly leaves the class when told to do so (needless to say, he goes either to the library or to meet SAP girls.

His style and garrulity has won him adulation from the fairer sex (practically from all the corners of the campus) – one of the reasons for his being on a diet-control program. He can seldom be found stationary and would give his vehicle no. as his residential address!

A fine exponent of classical Carnatic Music but he has rarely sung before the class. His back bench comments with his friends during class hours would give many an impression as though another class was being conducted at the back

About him :

Not always is a teacher better qualified than a student. Mr. Double degree (MA, MA) equals many and betters a few more. No saying is more appealing to him than the hoary old one, which reads "Man is a social animal". To him, establishing an interpersonal relationship with someone is as easy as making an interpolarity contact using a wire (if only wires were that strong). Makes a friend with both sexes pretty easily. Always likes to be in the thick of things and takes life as it comes. Loves dressing up and has an impeccable aesthetic sense. Some might think that he really came a cropper in the breakaway party by getting on the nerves of a few. Of course it added spice to the party at the end.

He is the only person in the class of ’99 to have been in CTS solely on the merit of his C project. He is one of the better cricketers of the class contributing to the cause of the team with his batting and bowling. He is also a very fine carrom and chess player. He can be classified as a refined pandu of our class (the refinement effected in the final year).

About her :

Yet another eccentric of EEE’99 Sumi is bubbly and full of enthusiasm.

She writes at the speed of light and can speak even faster. Her straight-forwardness is much appreciated but at times makes people creep under the table. She and Priya got lost during the Bangalore tour and gave the rest of us quite a nice time (must have been her original idea). Sumi is very athletic and good at softball cricket and shuttle. She also provides great company during boring classes and stupid movies.

Just in case, venture not into asking him his CGPA – he’s quite sensitive about his acads. A total extrovert, this coimbatorean provides lively company on dull evenings. His favorite pastimes include listening to music, playing tennis and hanging out with the Buddhs in the bunk.

And if you ever want to know what kind of garb the class of EEE 99 used to adorn, just take a look at viji's wardrobe.
