This is a profile for our daughter, who is a post graduate in English from Delhi University. She is a Delhi-based journalist now working as a Deputy Editor in charge of News in an education-focused website. She did well in school, college and university without being bookish.
PLEASE NOTE:
1. We don't believe in horoscopes and our daughter doesn't have one. Nonetheless, for those who believe, her birth details are DoB 23/2/85, PoB Kolkata, ToB 6.40 p.m.
2. She is left-handed.
We are a comfortably placed kayastha kulin family based in south Delhi and with origins in East Bengal. The entire extended families on both my and my wife's side are well educated.
We are looking for a groom from a similar background in terms of education and broadmindedness. If the prospective groom has some cerebral interests outside his field of work, and has a liberal worldview, that's an extra bonus.
As parents we are only administering this profile and will... more be only a catalyst between our daughter and any prospective groom. We would prefer that after the first contact is made through us (and/or the prospective groom or his parents), the boy and girl should talk and decide whether they want to take this forward. As parents we will step aside and let them take whatever decision they go in for.
We live in a nuclear family with liberal values. Our family is settled in Delhi, India. Her father has retired while her mother is a homemaker. She is the single child to her parents.
