Part A: Why Aditya Birla Group is big in your life?
ABG does touch millions in the world. Its penetration in the market is amazing and its products are used by millions of people. ABG is connected to me in a way that I couldn’t have imagined. Ever since I was a kid I was always inclined towards branded clothes. The reason for the same was that a brand signifies status, symbolism, lifestyle, etc. When I first purchased my branded shirt, it was from Peter England. The quality, the comfort, the style, the design has never let me down. Even today, more than 50 % of my shirts are from Peter England.
Another interesting story that comes to my mind regarding ABG product is that of Ultratech cement. I still remember when a few years ago my house had to renovate, my father solely trusted using only UltraTech cement which is known for its quality and price. The reason behind selecting the same is because our relatives recently built a house which had Ultratech cement used in it. It has been almost 3 years and there have been cracks in the walls. They highly recommended the product and we used the same. We are glad to have selected Ultratech as a first choice when it came to renovating the house.
This is just a small part of what ABG plays in our lives. There are millions of people out there who are connected to ABG in someway or the other. A number of products touching the lives of millions in many ways.
Part B: The day that made me a fierce
The world is driven by people who thrive to make an impact. An impact so good, which changes the face of the world. A consistent effort is put by all those who wish to do something amazing in life irrespective of all the obstacles, all the force that comes in their way. This example would sound adventurous to you as it is one of the most loved hustles that I have done till now. While I was in Undergrad 1st year we went on a college trip to an adventurous camp which was a 3-day trip. Every set of 10 people were allotted 1 captain and a vice-captain. The tasks were laid out for 3 days. The victors would be the ones who scored maximum points in total at the end of three days. There was one task where we had to do kayaking to complete one obstacle eventually to move to another spot. I was in the kayak with one of my team member who was not so good when it came to water. Since halfway through his hydrophobia gave in, and we stumbled into the water. Even though we wore our lifejackets, my teammate kept on panicking by the thought that he was going to drown. I kept my calm and somehow managed to hold him tight and turn the kayak upside. I helped him mount on the kayak again and managed to get on it steadily and completed the assigned the task. The task looked simple at first, but when we got stumbled into the water the adventure started exactly at that point. The adrenaline rush that came at that point made me do something quick to get us out of that situation.
