Niel is one of those guys with very few nicknames. Although Samiyar is more popular, 'Bondaa Mooku' is the one that nicely fits this guy.  That's because this name not only parodies Niel's mooku, but also has the word 'Bondaa' in it; and believe it or not guys, Niel was and is never "un-gluttonous" about his food.

He still carries around his paunch. (for those of you who haven't med Niel for some time...)

The most important thing that one is reminded of about Niel is his class notes. He is so very systematic in organizing his class notes that, everyone in the class will take a photocopy of the notes, the night before the exams. (note the words 'the night before' - that's the time when other folks start their preparation). But Niel will be sitting there in his room reading Auto India, coolly.

That brings another thing. BMW cars are an intoxicant for Niel. He now has  a 323i (correct me if I am wrong Niel) with all the extra's that you can think of. And know what... one can never see a car that's so clean and "organized". You cant find a speck of dirt in it.
