Bingo love

Shannon Anna Mathew, a communications professional in The Netherlands, wanted to make the most of her best friend's birthday on May 17, once she flew down to India, but the lockdown dampened her plans. "The Bingo trend had picked up, and I was sure she'd secretly want me to do something around it." So, Mathew got all her friends to come up with phrases that defined her best friend. "The tiles were filled with classic Sampurna things. For example, one of them read, 'Got lectured on the superiority of phuchkas'," she shares, adding it was a fun way to relive their friendship.
