Hariharan A.K.A Harry Peter..

We often say that animation gives life to everything artificial and lifeless. But, only one character on this earth can feed animations with life and that is Mr.Hariharan. He will always be completely animated. No matter whether he is tensed, sad, happy or excited you can always find him doing which most people don't dare to do. I find many people inclined completely to sentiments and emotions. This guy is one of a kind. I've never found him attaching great importance to sentiments. But, when it comes to emotions, he outruns almost anyone in this world. Big is the exact word that describes him. His reactions for even the smallest of issues would be so dramatic, extravagant and BIG. Though he is quite shrewd, his inquisitiveness pushes most of us to the edge and we will be keener in running away from him than giving appropriate responses to his inexplicable questions. He is a man of a wide knowledge base under his head. Throw a topic at him and you will find him talking about it at least for the next couple of hours. If you don't stop him, you might be required to listen to whatever he speaks from Mangayarkarasi to Massachusetts. He is an ardent fan of all the series of Harry Potter and that is the main reason why we called him Harry Peter. He is such a nice guy to be with and he is absolutely harmless. He is so innocent that he doesn't even realize that you are teasing him when you really are and he would start enjoying the false appreciations. :-P Sometimes such appreciations reach his head and that is the time he starts talking whatever comes to his mind and that is when you find everything that was enclosed within the skull of this multifaceted personality. As long as you are with him, you can be sure of having a great time since your experience will be very much similar to watching a stage show where a single man plays all the characters. But, when he is really interested in talking to you after his characteristic performances, you might even curse God for giving you this life. But, we should accept the fact that he sounds plainly sensible in whatever he speaks. The first thing anyone would notice with him would be his eyes which remain half closed which might be because of his attempts to make others believe that he is an intellectual and also his smile that makes you feel 'Hariharan is here and why fear'. But, trust me. At the end of the day, it will be because him you might have been terrified. If there is something out of the ordinary about him, that would be the way he got himself into a playful verbal wrestle with one of our department staff members.:-P He keeps his present intact that he gives no thought to the future or the consequences which his actions would bring him home. That is the best attitude I loved to sense in this guy. And that was why he literally made the staff member shiver. When the entire class is directed towards a particular task, Peter will choose his own way to stay away from what is supposed to be done, particularly when it's related to Mangayarkarasi. The exact definition for the HOD was given by this Great man and even the person involved can find no flaws with his explanation. He is God's design of dignity and that makes it tough for him to stand outside the class whenever he is asked to go out of the class by the staff members who prefer his absence more than his company. Also, he is an Encyclopedia of grubby languages. If you are longing to know the real bad words in Tamil, tell him the word 'Mangayarkarasi' and you would be going through a free crash course of all the filthy words available in Tamil. You might even get to know words coined by him. Who could ever forget APT? :-P. Even though he possesses all these characters, his charm outruns everything and he is really skillful while handling people. What would you call a person who escaped the comments when he honestly expressed his intentions to boycott most of the Industrial Visits and especially the tour? Call him Hariharan. After 4 good years with him, anyone would now feel that he has been a good friend with no bad intentions and all his animated expressions and body language look sound. It's quite rare to spot someone like Hariharan who remains completely untouched by the future. He is an outright optimist that he never takes even the serious comments on him to his heart. Instead, he enjoys them. It's very hard to find such a person around you. I personally don't wish to meet anyone like him in the future because he has to remain one of a kind as long as I am conscious.
