ABG - Always With Us | Smit Lath, TAPMI
I come from a middle class family ad my father is a serviceman and mother, a homemaker. Kumar Mangalam Birla is one of that instrumental person whose story has intrigued me. Taking over at the age of 28 and making such a big empire is not a small thing. I remember when I failed and had no job with no guts to tell my father about the whole situation almost 3 years back. I started reading how a young boy made it to top with shear guts and moral. I read and thought, this boy had everything served on a plate and he just worked hard after but then I read the failures. Failure is fatal, I remember these lines always before I started my journey to reach were I am and these three words were said by that boy who had matured at the time when he said these words and was roaring his success by not words but his actions.

“Failure is not fatal, failure is inevitable. If you don’t fail, it perhaps means you aren’t taking enough risks” – Mr. Kumar Mangalam Birla.
Aditya Birla Group - A Bridge Between People | Amit Yashaswi, TAPMI
There was a time not so long ago yet distant, a time when connectivity was one of the greatest tasks faced by our country. Telephone tariffs were still exorbitant and landline telephones were the only communication resource available to the common man. Much in contrast to present culture, communication was still as inflexible as the postal days.
The Skinny Guy From 7B - Ashwin Pillai, TAPMI
I was lying on the football ground, gasping in pain from the hit. It was a direct hit to the chest this time. He had gotten hold of me, pulled me by my shoulders and buried his knee into my skinny chest. As the helpless guy, I had always been, I cried in pain. The social non-acceptance of a man crying embarrassing me even further. There were people around me; laughing, unempathetic… disgusting. I knew I was alone in this. I knew there was nobody who could help me. The teachers viewed me as a weakling and I didn’t have the guts to reveal anything to my family. But there was nothing I could have possibly done, after all, I was ‘not their equal’. My ordeal continued all my school life, all the while hoping I’d never see their faces in my life. But there was very little I could’ve done. They were my only ‘friends’ and for them, all of this was just a way to have fun. After boards, I got into a good college in a far-off neighbourhood. I thought all my nightmares are of the past even though all of them lived in the same colony as I. I had strategized plans to avoid taking routes where I’d have a chance of meeting them. But all behold! The biggest bully among them all was in my college, in the same class. I had lost hope, but oddly enough, he behaved. Hung out with me and my friends at the canteen as if nothing had happened in the past. Even though still fearful, I had somehow believed this absolute horror of a person had somehow become an empathetic ‘friend’; until that day. He had randomly picked stones, aimed at me from a distance and started throwing them. ‘My friends’ had joined him in no time to join the ‘fun’. But this time that was it. I was done with all of this. I needed relief from all of it. Thankfully it was nearing my vacation. I skipped the rest of my lectures till the semester break and only went to college for exams. I started eating healthy and started taking care of my health. Started running in the mornings to improve stamina. Joined the gym to get ripped and in 6 months time, I was a completely changed human being. Initially I was being ridiculed for going to the gym even after being the skeleton of the person I was, but to everyone’s surprise, there I was! Huge and strong. Stronger than the bully himself! From being my ultimate foe, he tried gelling up with me to help him bully others. Never had I ever, till then, had the guts to say no to him and now this was it. I was the owner of my own life. No more planning to avoid routes. No more living in fear. Even though I never had to use my strengths, it certainly was a relief the day I understood that I was considered as a person never to be messed with. The empowerment, the strength that it gave me in those days still remain with me. I believe I wouldn’t even be the confident and strong guy that I am today if it wasn’t for my bully.
