The unforgettable day of Bobby Mishra's life

Actor Bobby Mishra drove from Bhubaneswar to Kolkata at 2 in the morning to win back his ladylove...
I usually lead a tension-free life and nothing is tough for me. But life surprises a person the most when he expects it the least. So, for a carefree guy like me, one particular day came like a blow. It was when I was dating actor Koel Banerjee, who is my wife now. We had one huge lover’s spat and she had parted ways.I was out of my mind with grief. Determined to get her back, I embarked on the toughest journey of my life.
Koel refused to talk to me over the phone and seeing no other option, I just took out my car and drove from Bhubaneswar to Kolkata at 2 am in the morning! I didn’t even know her exact address. I just knew the name of the local school in her area. After the long and tedious drive, I reached Kolkata at the crack of dawn. As nobody knew me there, I took a shower on the pavement and had my breakfast in a shanty.
When I reached Koel’s house, she even refused to meet me. I waited at her lobby for 45 minutes. That was the longest wait of my life. At last, she came down but rejected my apology. I came back to Bhubaneswar, completely heart-broken.
Though I won back her love and trust later on, and right now, I’m living a happily married life with her, that was one day I will not forget for the rest of my life.
