Let us take a trip down memory lane. Remember those colourful commercials that used to pop up on our TV screens every time we sat down to watch a natok? Remember the cute little jingles and how they would refuse to leave your head afterwards?

If your choices were mostly a's, you are "Tumi, ami ar Danish". Yes, Danish! You are sweet, adventurous and fiercely romantic. You remain loyal to your loved ones. You love to go on adventures and look at the beautiful sky. You are like the extra bit of goodness that makes life better!

If your choices were mostly b's, you are "Ke ei Ifad?" You are impulsive and jump to conclusions, depending on things that might or might not mean anything. You upset yourself over the smallest things. You get insecure when your loved ones are not giving you enough attention. You are malleable and mould into different situations easily.

If your choices were mostly c's, you are "Tomar jonno morte pari, o shundori, tumi golar mala…" You have an amazing sense of humour. You are playful, cute and like having fun with your friends. You have a certain charm about you that people find irresistible, like a refreshing drink on a hot, summer day!

If your choices were mostly d's, you are "Desh, desh, desh!" Everyone wants you around. You have a delightful energy and you remind people of all the good things in life -- colours, festivals, music and laughter. You are the life of the party!
