I am..
Born in the City of Joy, he moved over to Hyderabad and spent his early childhood there. According to his personal account, life in the Nizam's old capital was just ordinary. It was only after he left the city that Hyderabad transformed into a major metropolis and a prominent IT hub. Rumor has it that it had something to do with his being in the city. He shifted base to Kathmandu, Nepal in 1997. By the time he was leaving the country, it was in utter turmoil. After the Nepalese Royal Massacre, the over-a-few-centuries old peaceful monarchy was overthrown and the country is still struggling for political stability. He returned to his birth-place in 2000 and spent eight 'joy'ous years there. Since 2008, he has been devoting his time to more grave matters setting camp in a little known town called Kharagpur.
He is an ardent listener of music. He listens to every genre of music and loves them all. He can also play a variety of musical instruments like the Harmonium, the Tabla and the acoustic Guitar. His favorite bands are Radiohead, Death Cab for Cutie and Eels.
He loves traveling and when I say love, I mean it. He can give up anything to be at another landmark. He is said to have gone without food or shelter on his trip to Italy. True love! Just under 21, he got to travel to nine different countries, excluding his home country and the Vatican City. The only countries he traveled with his family are India and Nepal. Kerala and Kashmir are his favorite locations in his beloved country. An extract from his own chronicles says: " I have been fortunate enough to stand by the Berlin Wall, view Paris from the top of the Eiffel, lean on the Leaning Tower of Pisa, take a Gondola ride through the canals of Venice, discover the history of the Colosseum and walk through the narrow streets of Amsterdam (if you know what I mean). "
He reads novels at bed-time. They help him fall into a sound sleep. Arundhati Roy, Paulo Coelho and Khaled Hosseini are his favorite authors.
