Movie outing in Mountain View and trip to Davis
Vrushali Dillikar checked in with Sohan Dillikar on Sunday afternoon, January 4, 2026, while he was in Mountain View. Sohan explained that he and an unnamed female companion were watching the movie 'Dhurandar' because she wanted to see it. Vrushali followed up to confirm they were the only ones there. Later that evening, Sohan confirmed they were alone and mentioned that the movie had finished. He updated Vrushali on his plans, stating that they were heading to Davis next. Vrushali acknowledged the update, and the exchange concluded with her brief confirmation.
Gossip, Life Rants, and Anniversary Planning
Sohan and Ishani continued their wide-ranging exchange, shifting from daily updates to music, professional frustrations, and social gossip. On the morning of January 8, 2026, Ishani shared that she has grown to like the entire 'Dhurandhar' album, specifically mentioning she originally only liked 'Ishq Jalandhar'. Sohan agreed, praising the album's consistency. Sohan vented about a recent call with an individual he found incredibly arrogant and overly focused on 'hustle culture.' He expressed frustration at being asked a 'where do you see yourself in 10 years' question, arguing that long-term planning beyond a year is unrealistic for most people. Ishani related to this, noting she only makes one-day plans, and they joked about the man's LinkedIn persona. Ishani shared a significant 'update' regarding their mutual friend Vrinda. She revealed that Vrinda broke up with her boyfriend Finn in early September 2025 due to parental pressure regarding him being white and the relationship eventually shifts into a friendship. Sohan was shocked, insisting he had never been told. Ishani also detailed a new development where Arjun Aurora—a student at UC Santa Cruz who has had a crush on Vrinda since elementary school and hooked up with her in high school—reconnected with her on Tinder. The two had a five-hour conversation and are currently back in touch. The conversation concluded with Ishani asking for advice on a budget for anniversary gifts; Sohan suggested a range between $30 and $70, with a $70 maximum, which Ishani found agreeable. The tone remains close, informal, and heavy on shared social history.
New Year check-ins, life goals, and career nerves
Sohan and Ishani shared a long, affectionate exchange to ring in the New Year. The conversation began with playful banter and Sohan sharing a selfie highlighting a new mustache, which prompted some teasing from Ishani about his "middle schooler" energy. They discussed the film *Dhurandhar*, with Sohan defending its historical accuracy regarding Lyari and Karachi against Ishani’s friend Riya's "propaganda" label; Ishani expressed interest in watching it with him despite its intensity. Ishani shared updates from her trip, where she is staying with five families near Woodlake until Saturday, January 3, 2026. She sent photos of a serene lake sunset and mentioned she is essentially "fluent" in Marathi again due to being surrounded by her community. This prompted a reflective turn in the conversation; Ishani shared how hearing about her friend Tanvi living in New York with her boyfriend Yash (an AISC alum) has her longing for a future where she and Sohan live together, emphasizing the comfort of shared accountability and being lazy together. Sohan reassured her that they would have that future one day. On January 1, Sohan spent the evening visiting temples in Milpitas (Sai Parivaar and Veda Temple) with his family, a yearly tradition he finds slightly tedious. He admitted to feeling very nervous about a significant event occurring on Friday, January 2—referred to by Ishani as "goodness ready for today." Ishani, still battling jet lag from her India trip, provided encouragement and noted she has felt more religious since returning. On the morning of January 2, they checked in early as Sohan prepared for his big day.
