What is the one thing you like to do when not working?

When I am not working, I truly enjoy spending quality time with my family and friends. Whether it’s over a meal, a casual outing, or just catching up at home, these moments help me recharge. It keeps me grounded and reminds me what really matters outside of work.

How do you spend your weekends?

My weekends are usually about unwinding and doing things that bring me joy. I love going out for dinners with close ones or playing sports whenever I get the chance. It’s the perfect way to balance relaxation with a bit of activity.

What are your favourite gadgets?

Honestly, I’m not much of a gadget person. I find them a bit boring compared to real-world experiences. I prefer spending time with people or outdoors rather than getting hooked to the latest tech.

Given an option to choose another career, what would it be?

If not in my current line of work, I would have definitely chosen something in the field of sports. I’ve always had a passion for it, both as a player and a follower. Sports bring discipline, teamwork, and energy, all qualities I truly admire.

Which is your favourite vacation spot?

I love visiting UNESCO heritage sites in India. They’re always fascinating. Each site has so much history, culture, and architectural beauty to offer. Exploring them feels like connecting with our roots while also taking a break from routine.

 A TV show, a movie, and an ad campaign you highly recommend watching

I would recommend The Family Man because of its gripping storytelling that’s very relatable to Indian audiences. A movie I love is The Pursuit of Happyness. It’s inspiring and reminds you never to give up. And in advertising, the KBC campaign with the line “koi bhi sawal chota nahi hota” still stands out for its simplicity and impact.
