Things I Love to Do


My ideal day begins with Suryanamskar and comes to fulfillment with sports or light music in evening.

I love to listen to kids and sometimes to wife (I don’t know how often…)

I like to go out in rain and have a bash with friends.

I don’t want to miss out on any of the Grand Slams finals on television.

Every time I take a vow to complete a book before the new one comes in hand.

I like to be with good friends who inspire, understand and stand for each other.

Love to mingle with students and help them find themselves. And most importantly, I want to be fit and healthy.
