After 10th standard, I moved to Indore, for my JEE preparation. This was my first time away from home. The board exam hang over was not even over yet and most of my friends left for Kota. I was the only one in my friend circle who was in Indore, I felt disconnected, and home sick. It was then that I purchased my first mobile phone and connected through Idea cellular network. It was “Idea” that helped to stay connected with friends and family. Aditya Birla group has impacted my life in many ways, Peter England, Allen Solly, Van Huesen are some of my favourite brands for cloths . In fact my first business formal that I purchased were from peter England showroom, It gives me immense comfort and confidence when I go for interviews. Aditya Birla Online Fashion app is my first choice for purchasing cloths online, it provides one of the best services with great quality and at a very good price. Shopping at Aditya Birla Online fashion app has been a great experience. Aditya Birla Idea payment Bank limited has made money transaction very simple, for most of my transaction among friends and family I use this app, it has been a very smooth experience without much hustle and bustle.

Aditya Birla Group, India’s one of the largest conglomerates having its presence in multiple countries. It is present across various industries such as fibres, metals, telecom, chemicals, insulators, financial services, carbon black, BPO, branded apparel and IT services. Knowingly and unknowingly ABG touches our lives in many ways. 

A challenge faced in life 

I was in 6th standard when for the first  time I participated in a play which was set to be performed at the annual function. I was excited as all my friends were a part of that play, which was the reason I joined it in the first place. We practiced for nearly one month,  enjoyed every day, every session of it, all the more because every day nearly half of the classes were cancelled in the wake of annual function preparation. Acting is something which I always wanted to learn. Through out those rehearsals I explored a completely new side of myself. After a month long preparation before the final act, we were supposed to present before a student audience as a part of practise. When we went on stage I saw hundreds of eyes staring at me . This was a new experience, I never thought acting in front a crowd could be this haunting. Nearly 40 secs into play and my dialogue came, I could hear myself panting, my voice was trembling and I just couldn’t stop shaking. Some how I managed to finish my part, with few fumbles though. Later I was worried, what would happen on the D-day. Every time I imagined my-self being on the stage, the thought of facing so many eyes terrified me. During the next few rehearsals I sought advice from my teacher regarding the stage freight. He advised not to look into the eyes of audience and focus on other objects in the auditorium instead. Initially it seemed like a stupid idea, how could somebody possibly escape an ocean full of eyes. Although I had nothing better in my mind so just followed the instruction and the act went much better than what I expected.  One thing that I learnt from this experience is that when going gets tough its important to just hold on, there is always a way.
