There can be co-incidences regarding people. We meet people in all walks of our life. Apart from our parents & siblings, we know our relatives, neighbours, school teacher, school friends,and  if we participate in extra-curricular activities, then we tend to meet more people from various fields. In college, we meet our new friends, college professors, college staff and again there if we participate in college festivals, we tend to meet people from various colleges. We have our friends, sometimes we also meet their friends, their relatives, if there is a party or a function, there can be surprises as most of times, by some way or the other, people meet each other and there can be so many common friends of whom you might have never imagined that the person who was unfamiliar to you till yesterday will become familiar due to common friends. There is a funny sentence which is common which goes as this--"He is my cousin's brother's wife's dad's cousin's son" or else "She is my dad's friend's friend's cousin's daughter". But, today in this busy schedule, we don't have conversations except with people to whom we meet in our daily routine.

 

In our workplace, we meet different kinds of people. We limit them upto our work, but, there can be incidences that a few of them might be unknown to you, but familiar to your close friend or else your parents or neighbour or any of your relatives. The most popular typical scene which can be seen in films or serials--A person has a quarrel with another on the road due to some reason and when they meet the person to whom they were supposed to meet; they get "SURPRISED" as they see each other; because they were the ones who had quarrel on the road.

 

 There are also incidences where the person to whom we admire the most might be the relative or co-worker or neighbour of your friend/relative or friend's relative or relative's friend. There are permutations & combinations. There can also be the case-A particular person whom you find in your workplace can be friend of your relative or neighbour.This can happen not only in a particular city, but also, across the world. Also there can be a connection by way of common interests/hobbies/social work/parties/travelling. Also, we meet several professional people like doctors, lawyers,CAs,engineers due to any reason; they too; might not be  familiar on personal grounds to you; but, might know your relative's neighbour or friend's relative or friend's friend or relative's friend's friend(even they might also be unaware of this fact). It’s like a chain....

 

It’s really amazing that a particular person which is known to you is also known by your relative or else by your friend's relative or neighbour or friend's friend by any reason....
