Born on 26/11 - Homemaker, mumbai

Mansi Mahesh Shirke

Homemaker, mumbai

Mansi Mahesh Shirke, 30, lives in Nalla Sopara, a Mumbai suburb. She was born on November 26, 1979. The meaning of the day has changed for her since what happened in Mumbai on 26/11.She says: “Last year, on my birthday, as we were preparing to go out for dinner, the terrorist attack began without warning. We were caught unawares. We watched television for two days in horror and lost all sense of time. My birthday was forgotten,” she says.

She adds that her heart still goes out to the families who lost their near and dear ones in the attack by terrorrists. “Memories of the brave officers who were martyred in the line of duty still haunt me,” she says. “When I recall the sacrifice of Sandeep Unnikrishnan, my eyes well up.”

Mansi says: “It is impossible to live down the horror of what happened on 26/11 last year. So my birthday celebrations are bound to be a low-key affair this year. I would like to spend it quietly with my family."
