Dear Readers,
The very fact that you are holding this book, assures me that you too have a hunger for reading like me. If, going by the title someone feels it is about the people SAVED from meeting me, its only due to the punny part of Marathi lingo. In reality you shall be meeting people who came in my life, close enough that I could read them devotedly. Be it my first boss Shri Gogtesaheb, the Egyptian labor I met in Saudi or even the formal beggar of Barbados. All those persons have contributed to adding spice to my normal, plain living. But for their brief presence in my life, perhaps I too would have passed the years partially blank as a new year’s diary gifted to someone in the month of June! To partially repay that debt, I am dedicating this first ever published writing to all those Vachleli Manse.
