The Deja Vu-ing part of course comes in with the quiz meister "Harsha Bhogle" whom i shall be seeing again. If you recollect , he was also the quizmaster and Moderator at the National finals of the BT-Acumen Quiz and Debate finals (which IIFT won).
Here's hoping Nishant and me can pull off an encore for IIFT here too....
