Richa Gangopadhyay Instagram – “Baba”- Dad in Bengali- was my first word. I may have grown up, but I’m still his baby. Most people would agree, that I am my Baba’s mini-me in terms of our identical features, but also personality traits! 👨‍👧⁣ ⁣ ⁣ He is the epitome of humility; despite everything he’s achieved in life. He radiates positivity and a sense of calm, making it easy for anyone to strike up a conversation and stick around for hours and hours. He is a walking encyclopedia…at least to me, there is nothing he doesn’t know, and has almost this child-like wonder when it comes to learning new things.🤓⁣ ⁣ ⁣ He is the most patient human being I have ever met (though I’ve tested that many times growing up), and his ability to infuse gentle humor into every situation makes him the most approachable person in any environment. There is not a single person that meets him that doesn’t love him!💖⁣ ⁣ ⁣ He taught me what it meant to stay grounded, no matter how far you go in life. He also taught me that it’s not the end of the world if I fail. Baba deals with my mood swings better than anyone, and is also somehow effortlessly able to ingrain values, lessons and new perspectives that guide me through life…probably without even realizing it.😊⁣ ⁣ ⁣ He is and will always be that stable force that I know I can always count on, the person I can always run to, or call without hesitation to talk about anything and everything.🥰⁣ ⁣ ⁣ Hope covid gets over soon so we can resume travel and I can see him again, soon! <3 Love you Baba!
