Favourite Book
Range: How Generalists Triumph in a Specialized World by David Epstein is my favourite book. It emphasises how being ‘a little bit good in everything’ enhances learning and fosters the ability to connect disparate dots—qualities that are crucial for innovation.

Erin Brockovich is a knockout legal drama based on a true story. It’s about fighting gender bias, breaking barriers and taking on giants against all odds. Erin’s grit and refusal to back down are pure entrepreneurial fuel. It’s a rallying cry to stay committed to your mission, embrace social responsibility and push for change—even when the deck’s stacked against you. Inspiring, empowering and a reminder: no challenge is too big when you’re driven by purpose.
Favourite Sport
Table tennis. As an entrepreneur, I love the speed, strategy and precision it demands—much like running a business. It’s fast-paced, requires quick thinking and every move counts. Plus, it’s a great way to unwind.
Favourite Cuisine
I can eat sushi all day, any day. But if you ask cuisine, it will have to be Indian food—maa ke haath ka khana.
Favourite Holiday Destination
It doesn’t really matter as long as my family is with me. As an entrepreneur, I am rarely not working. That’s why family time is incredibly precious. Whether it’s a quiet getaway or just being together at home, the best destination is wherever we can truly connect.
