Was just trying to figure out the family tree of the Paranjpe's ;-)
As Vaishali said, Winnie (Ashwini) was from St. Joseph's in Poona
(my alma mater) and was known as Ashwini Joglekar. She finished her
10th std. in 1979. I'm not sure if she did marry one of the Shah
twins...Jay or Vijay. I'll find out in a day or two and post it. She
was engaged to one of them (I can never remember which one) about 1.5
yrs ago and is probably married too.
I'm wondering - if Sai's father was Russian his last name was definitely
not Paranjpe. In other words, did Sai's mother marry Wrangler Paranjpe
and was he Sai's step-father?
Too much to keep track off - I'm trying though ;-)!!!

Smt.Shakuntala Paranjape who is Sai's mother married a Russian person named
Yuri <forgot the last name>. They were separated later and Yuri went back
to Russia. ShakuTai (as she is called) is Wrangler Paranjape's daughter.
She uses her father's last name and Sai Paranjape uses the same surname
(i.e. her Grandfather's.)
Sai's children use her husband's (Arun Joglekar's) last name.
Sai also has a son Gautam (Joglekar) who acted opposite Madhuri Dixit in
"Prahaar". LAst I met him in 1994, he was into directing.
I have what might be considered an odd question. I apologize in
advance. I wish to ask you about your name.
My daughter (4 years old) is named Ira as well. It was an impulsive
decision and we did not really do much research into the references. We
assumed it was a form of 'Ila' referring to Saraswati. Have you looked
into the meaning of your name? Do you know what else it might refer to?
I would appreciate any reflections you may have on your name including
the confusion with the common Jewish male name here.
Thanks.

The name of Sai's father (as far as I remember) was Uri Laplotz. He
indeed was a Russian.

The name Ira (and all other similar names such as Irina, Rina, Ina) in
the western cultures originate from Irene - the greek godess of peace.
I don't know the Sanskrit origins of the name though.

May be "iraa" has origin there - meaning "fierce committment" ?

Or may be it is apabhransh of Heeraa? If this indeed is the case, people
with name Ira should consider themselves very fortunate for dropping H
in their first name because Californians might have spelled their
name as Jeeraa (as in San Jose)

I did not want to criticize her cigar smoking. She was easily
identifiable in a crowd due to her smoking. Talking about Apte Rd,
another personality that comes to mind is the majestic figure of Major
General Paranjape. He would go for a walk on Apte Rd. with a walking
stick and a pipe in his mouth. He driving his pistochio colored,
shining, big British car was a sight to watch.

Sai wrote an article in Ravivar Maharashtra Times Purwani
last year. The article was about Karve and Parajape clan, their
relationships, etc. Great Sai's relationships with other great Iravati
Karve made enjoyable reading.
Shakuntala paranjape's aatmacharitra " kahi Aambat kahi god"
is very interesting to read. I first read it when in 8th grade.
I remember a chawat joke from it clearly. Diwaliche divas astat.
Wrangler parajpayanchi aai tyanna aanghol ghalat aste. Shakauntala
bajula ubhi rahun babanchi aanghol pahat aste. Wrangler parajpyanchya
potacha nagara pahun tynachi aai mhanate" kay ganapati zalay nusta".

Hi there:
Just adding my 2c worth to this thread. I used to live in the
same bungalow as Mrs Shakuntala Paranjpe and Winnie for about
15 yrs and have known Winnie very closely. We were in the same (std X) batch
of 1979 but I studied in St. VIncent's.
Actually the family tree goes like this.
Wrangler Raghunathrao Purushottam Paranjpe 's daughter is Shkuntala
Paranjpe who married Mr. Yuri Sleptzoff a Russian who was living in Paris
where they met. When Mr. Sleptzoff and Shkuntala Paranjpe divorced, she
retained her maiden name which was assumed by Sai too. Sai is the daughter
of Yuri and Shakuntala (hence the caucasian features). Sai married Arun
Joglekar and Winnie and Gautam aer their children.
It's been nearly 8 years I have been here and my folks moved away
from that house so I have been quite out of touch with Winnie. I met
her last in 1992 but very briefly. So I am not sure whether she did get
married to (Jay Shah) or not.

This thread is very similar to the one that Cliff Stoll
quotes in the appendix of Silicon Snake Oil. I like it anyways
because Sane is in full form here. This should be archived
on some web page to be shown to Sane Jr's how their dad used to rule
a marathi corner of Usenet. Anyway, I am also surprised a DEC programmer
wrote such a clean-looking program. And also at DEC actually uses C or C++
rather than some proprietory crap. I heard Sane is working on a project
called DecWeb, where the web pages can be accessed only from a DEC computer.
