Tofayel Ahmed and Sanjid Apurba Bin Siraj shared a remarkable academic journey, starting from the same college, where they sat side by side in the same classroom for two years. Their friendship began in their first year at Chattogram College, and throughout their time there, they remained inseparable. Together, they explored different parts of Chattogram, creating countless memories along the way.

Both excelled in their higher secondary exams, achieving GPA-5. Their success continued in university admission tests, where Tofayel secured the first position at Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology (BUET), while Sanjid ranked second in the medical admission test and got admitted to Dhaka Medical College.

Although their paths have now diverged as they pursue higher education at different institutions, they part ways without regret, carrying forward their shared experiences and strong bond. Reflecting on their time together, Tofayel told Prothom Alo, "We studied sitting on the same bench in college. We have so many memories together. We've had countless debates on different topics. Now, we have moved to different educational institutions."
