Dear Berlin,
In the beginning, I never thought of putting the "Dear" in front of your name. But you earned it by presenting yourself weaponless in front of the snipers.
I uncovered a lot of things from you. No other in-charge can substitute you in any heist. The way you tackled all the worse situations is much appreciable. I am in love with your leadership qualities. The moment when Tokyo played Russian Roulette, even your haters will appreciate your courage. Your dialogues, your way of saying, your leadership qualities and your friendship with the Professor stand outstanding.
"We are all going to die. And I drink to that because we are still alive, Here's to life." Your perspective towards your life is the one that should be everyone's perspective in a peaceful world. Even after knowing that you will be dead in the next 3 years, you went for the heist proves your own sentence to the Professor, "If a painter told you he had three years left to alive, would you tell him to stop painting." It shows your enchantment with your work.
After all, love is a good reason to make everything go wrong. Why did you fall in love with her?? Why did you believe in her?? You were a complex character, yet you made us root for you when you said, "love can't be timed, it has to be lived." You loved and broke-up 5 times, and at the difficult times in the heist, you again let yourself find your 6th love Ariadana only to be betrayed by her.
While you mesmerized us with your smile, the way of looking by your eyes and your wise words such as "First times are so special. Unique. But the last times are beyond comparison. They are priceless. But people don't normally know it's their last time".
You might be Andrés de Fonollosa, but to us, you will always be Berlin. You had spent all your life being a bit of a son of a bitch, but Yes, you died with dignity.
Love,
A Fan,
Manoj Kumar
