Favourite City	Mumbai. The human energy in this city is awesome. It helps all sections of citizenry especially the economically weaker sections to exist and thrive; I have been amazed at the sheer will power that drives its people in spite of worsening infrastructure – be it water supply, sanitation, housing, public transportation. Mumbai is an inclusive city inspite of repeated assaults to divide, segregate and alienate sections of the population by political & religious shenanigans and their goon squads.
Favourite "Quotations"	” Every Morning, somewhere, in a jungle, a gazelle wakes up every morning to outrun the fastest lion, so that it may live another day; in that same jungle a lion wakes up every morning to outrun the slowest gazelle so that it may not be hungry for another day” ‘So whether one is a gazelle or a lion, wake up every morning and start running” – Adapted ” The exhuberance of Youth produces more results than the experience of the Old” – K.S.Ravi Shankar
