Having traded in my running shoes for football studs at an early age, I went on to lead my school team as a centre forward. After dabbling in various sports, I finally chose to pursue my lifelong fascination with tennis and worked my way up to the national circuit. An ardent admirer of wide, open spaces, I have committed myself to the revival of outdoor games and recreation, and to ensuring that every child enjoys the opportunity to play their heart out.

On a separate note (excuse the disconnect), there is perhaps nothing that I feel more strongly about than the immediate need to protect our planet. As humans (ahem, supposedly the most intelligent species), we need to better introspect on how we interact with nature’s elements, learn to identify the use of renewable energy and pledge to ‘Go Green’. As time goes on, it is increasingly becoming our responsibility to provide for a more sustainable future — for ourselves and the generations ahead!

The Journey

I set out post-studies in 2003. From interning at an accounting firm for a month to working night shifts at a call centre for over a year and from running an entertainment company for four years to taking up content-based projects over the next five years — it’s been one helluva ride! As I juggled work and play, covering wide swathes of our incredible country, I touched down with a creative work stint in Singapore — and for all of this, I am forever grateful. Here below are some ups and downs along the way:

First Serve:
95% in English Language & Literature at the Indian Certificate of Secondary Education (I.C.S.E);
the highest result recorded that year
(1998)

Second Serve:
Certified in Cinematography at New York University (NYU)
(2007)

Landing on the Front Foot:
All India Tennis Association (AITA) Player
(2009)

Unforced Errors:

Not to mention the numerous monetary pitfalls associated with sports, my general lack of financial know-how, several declined work applications, sporadic work opportunities, and years and years of cleared loans along the way.

Standing by the Hits & Misses:

A roller coaster ride of odd-jobs and experiences en route — persevering through the highs and lows, to be here today, it’s been ALL worth it!
