If not in the IT industry: I would have been in the teaching profession. Spreading knowledge fascinates me.
Biggest passion:
I’m passionate about anything I do.
Behind the wheels: Ford Ikon, Mercedes-Benz.
Role model: John Kennedy. He rose to be the youngest president of the US, and took many tough decisions.
Favorite holiday destination: Singapore. It has great spots, it’s close to India, and since it’s a small place one can travel from one attraction to another very quickly.
Hate the most: Dishonesty in any form.
Ultimate ambition: To always be Number One in whatever venture I undertake.
Wildest thing I’ve ever done: 10 years after passing out from my school I once stood in front of the school main-gate at two in the morning and sang the school song aloud. I’m still not sure why I did it, but it sure felt good.
Thing I most want to do in life: Impart knowledge, especially to that strata of society which will benefit from my doing so.
Favorite sport and sportsperson: Badminton. Prakash Padukone.
If I became the Prime Minister: I’d stop terrorism not just in India but also help to curb it across the world.
Celebrity I’d like to spend a day with: Prakash Padukone. I would like to understand how he trained himself, and how he felt after winning the All England Open.
Weekends are for: Spending time with my wife and six-year-old daughter.
Gadget I can’t live without: My mobile phone.
One person I’d like to meet: Anyone who lived in India during the British Raj to understand what it means to be not free.
