RJ Veeru believes that friendship is like traveling. It’s like moving from one destination to another. Some destinations fascinate you, while some don't pique your interest at all. You stay at one place for a while, you move on from some places quickly, while some places tug at your hearts and make you want to visit again. However, Veeru is of the opinion that your first friend is a destination just like your birthplace. Even though you may live far away from it now or haven’t visited the place in a long time, it remains a part of you. A part that you can never forget because it was where your life began. In this podcast, Veeru talks about his friend Arjun who now stays in another country and explains how to maintain friendship in such a way that it becomes like fine wine. Credits:Voice: ⁠⁠RJ Veeru⁠⁠
