“I enrolled for the Computer Science and Engineering degree at the University of Mauritius in 2004 without any particular objective or passion for the course. Yet, here i am…a Computer Science and Engineering graduate in 2007!!! The journey was enjoyable but yet so…so challenging and difficult. I am glad that i was able to fulfill the dream of my parents but for me, the journey begin now. . .”

~by Me~

The graduation ceremony was scheduled for 14:00pm (26th September 2007). It was a big event for me and my family. I got a new suit tailored for me and mom bought a Rs 4000+ saree for that occasion. Dad wore his old marriage suit. Perfect!!!

Somewhere else in Goodlands. . .
Shylesh Dev was planning on celebrating this event in the most elegant way. Why not? After all the hard work and determination he’d put forward in order to get that degree, that worth it. New black suit, new pair of shoes, new shirt, Oops . . . new hair style (dirty look) for that event!!!
Money talks ;-)

Truly, that ceremony was something that we could not have missed!!!

Cheers!!!

I’m sure that many of you (mauritians) must have watched MTML Jori No1 on Sunday 25 September 2007. The performance of Debojit and Himani was fantastic, but above all the Mauritian Joris rocked.

The 12 Contestants

  1. Hemant JUGGAPAH and Maniella AZIE

  2. Natraj BKEEKHY and Artee SEWDUTH

  3. Pankaj MOHABEER and Khushboo Kaur PANCHOO

  4. Akshay JOORUN and Bhovidhya Sonoo PAWAN

  5. Roshan MAHADOO and Bhavna RAMMA

  6. Devina BABOOBUDJNAUTH and Vishal Rajendrasing MUKOOL


The Winners

Obviously and indeed, my favorite Jori won!!!

  1. Akshay JOORUN and Bhovidhya Sonoo PAWAN

    2. The Mehbooba Mehbooba song was very well sang by Akshay and a marvellous dance by sonoo. Helen ek Mallika fail devant li!!!

  2. Pankaj MOHABEER and Khushboo Kaur PANCHOO

    3. Very well deserved.

  3. Devina BABOOBUDJNAUTH and Vishal Rajendrasing MUKOOL

    4. Could not have been otherwise!!!

On the other hand Pankaj MOHABEER sang well. In fact, I was afraid that they might have won it. But there was not much display as a Jori and that’s why they didn’t win.

I can see some hope (smallest) that Mauritian Singers are not so dumb as we previously assumed ;-)
