I like to read both fiction and non-fiction. The Road to Character by David Brooks always strikes a chord with me and is highly relevant for the times we live in.

The Shawshank Redemption is my favourite film. It shows how powerful and all-encompassing hope can be. I still catch parts of the film whenever it is on TV.

I absolutely love sushi. It is a little hard to get good sushi in India but I never miss an opportunity to have it at reputed Japanese restaurants when I am travelling abroad. However, when I'm really hungry, nothing tastes better than typical North Indian food: kebabs, rajma chawal and chole bhature.

Brazil as a country has a lot to offer, from its stunning natural beauty — mountains, forests and beaches — to the vibrant city life. The people and culture of Brazil also attracts me. The carnival, food and their love for football together make for a memorable experience. Initially, work took me to Brazil, but I liked it so much that it has now become my favourite vacation destination.

Golf is not only my favourite sport but also a stress buster. It helps me to train my mind and improve concentration. Moreover, a round of golf also helps me to get through the lows.
