We'd asked you, dear readers to share a picture with your best friend and write a message for him/her.
Here are some cute responses we received from you.
Divya Kumari tells us how she found her best friend Pragati Singh:
"Family is not everything in life. There are some secrets that you cannot tell them (family). This is where best friends come in.
"They are always the ones to support you when your family cannot.
"For me, Pragati Singh is the best friend I could ever asked for.
"I met her while pursuing graduation. She used to be stubborn, so nobody liked her much because of her straight forward attitude.
"I used to very shy and introvert.
"Once, a boy stopped me and started teasing me.
"I was too scared. When Pragati saw us, she came to my rescue.
"She raised her voice and asked him to stay away from me. That's how we became
"I found her to be a bubbly, happy-go-lucky person, someone I could trust.
"Though we are polar opposites, we get along very well, like two peas in a pod.
"We've seen failures, punishments, detentions... and more through college.
"We may be slowly drifting apart because of our careers, but I am sure that we are not letting each other go anytime soon.
"My message for her is: 'Thank you for standing by my side when times get hard. Thank you for making me laugh when I didn't even want to smile.'"
Vineet Sharma shared a message for his friends Tarun Tyagi and Ankur Gupta:
"We couldn't choose our family but thank God we could choose our friends.
"Friends are the mirrors that reflect the happy moments of life irrespective of the situation."
Vikas Chintal, 38 from New Delhi sent us a selfie with his best friend and wife Pallavi. He says:
"Every time I feel troubled, I just think of your love to ease my soul. That is the power of your love, my sweetheart wifey.'"
