My brother, Satyaki, is also my closest dearest friend. He got his PhD in Formal Verification at Stanford and is now working at Xilinx. He has been a strong influence and a role model in my life. I fondly remember all the days we spent together as kids - he was my constant companion and playmate.

Srabani, my sweet sister-in-law and the newest member of our family now, is a civil engineer who has been working as a software design architect and manager. They married on Nov 22, 2004 in Kolkata. We had some fun times together when we all visited our parents' home in Kolkata for the marriage ceremonies.
