Vikram and the Princess

Though Vikram is a happily married man now when he started Efficient Frontier he was an eligible bachelor. When questioned about his dating life by co-workers (Junior, DWhite and Trish), Vikram would say he was too busy with school to meet girls. We offered up our matchmaking assistance for our seemingly shy friend but he wasn't interested. So we assumed he was content with work and his studies…that is until we learned about his secret, double life...

You see, at the time Vikram lived in a cottage behind a professor's house. This professor was the world's foremost authority on Bhutan. So when the Bhutanese King sent his daughters to the U.S. for college he entrusted them to the care of this professor. Do you see where this story is going? So it turns out the reason our friend and colleague, Vikram, didn’t need our dating help was because he spending time with a princess. Would our friend become Prince of Bhutan? Was there a royal wedding in our futures?...

Though he broke the princess' heart (I may be embellishing a bit here) he had a vow to return to India and his family. Upon his return home he met and married his lovely wife and the rest is fairytale history.
