This is just the Beginning, The End is Far - Suhail Shangari, MDI Gurgaon

This is just the Beginning, The End is Far - Suhail Shangari, MDI Gurgaon

Many of us have started a new beginning and have boarded a train that will take us miles away, closer to our dreams, enriching us with knowledge and filled with some amazing experiences that we would not expect. Though the ride may be topsy-turvy, eventually it would be a journey that everyone would cherish. But what would happen after this ride reaches its destination? Would we all be done? We might think that we have achieved most of the things we ever wanted, but it will not be so. Instead, it would be the start of a new journey, boarding a different train, much better, much faster, bringing some more thrill.

A constant in my life changes|Ashish Mittal, MDI Gurgaon

A constant in my life changes|Ashish Mittal, MDI Gurgaon

One often comes across this very famous saying that “change is the only constant”. Let me use these words in a different order to present my life story. For me, what has remained constant through various changes in life is Aditya Birla Group (ABG). I remember vividly, my father taking me out for shopping for a function at my school a few years ago. I had not much sense of what clothes were good so I relied on my father’s decision of which brand to go for. It was then that I was introduced to my father’s preferred choice of clothing line, Louis Phillipe. That was one day when I knew nothing about the brand and today is a totally different story when this very brand makes more than half of my wardrobe. It is all about that connect and a sense of belonging with the brand that makes a space for itself in the mind and heart of the customers. In another instance, my parents zeroed in on Ultratech Cement for the construction of our house and that shall remain the preferred choice in the future for me as well because it indeed was an engineer’s choice, my father’s choice. From as big as a house to as small as a pair of socks, ABG has constantly influenced my life and not just mine but my family’s as well. And it shall continue to do so in the future because of the loyalty ABG has garnered by delivering the best in terms of quality. It is such subtle touches that any brand lends, in terms of value for customer, which influences lives of people in ways they never imagine, the way the ABG did in my case.

Change. Impact- The ABG Way- ABG| Anshul Tandon, MDI Gurgaon

Quoting Father of our Nation, Mahatma Gandhi- “Be the change that you wish to see in the world”.  The proverb provokes a thought, what is the change that the world wants? In the wake of 21st century when things are changing lightning-like, whether it be your mobile phone, clothing preferences or as simple as the toothpaste you use, being static in terms of consumer policies or rigid market strategy is not an option for any company you are acquainted with because if we were meant to stay in one place we’d have roots instead of feet. So how does one go about adapting to change? The first thing to do is – come out of the comfort zone, plunge into what you dream of irrespective of how crazy it may seem, and be the person who moved the mountain by carrying away stones because change is inevitable and if you won’t, then somebody will and no one loves being second.

What An Idea Sirji! - Aneesh Fernandes, NMIMS Mumbai

What An Idea Sirji! - Aneesh Fernandes, NMIMS Mumbai

As a young, aspiring and motivated person who has stars in his eyes, I always wanted a calming and assuring presence in my life. Someone I can rely on. A huge influence has been the Aditya Birla Group. I have trusted the largest portion of my hard-earned money with the Aditya Birla Sunlife Mutual Fund. This is the faith I hold in the Aditya Birla Group. These savings are planned for my investment in life – my own house. This house will most probably be built using Ultratech cement, the largest cement manufacturer in India. My car most probably has tyres with carbon black manufactured by Birla Carbon and this provides an additional level of safety which is always priceless. I do love looking dapper, so whenever I feel the urge I shop at Pantaloons for my favourite Allen Solly and Louis Phillipe outfits. Didn’t I talk about going on long drives, the roads and great infrastructure would mostly have been built using Ultratech Cement. The can of coke I drink is mostly through Aditya Birla's multiple aluminium rolling mills just as Novelis is in North America. Health and Life, in general, is way too precious and hence I have insured myself through Aditya Birla Sunlife Insurance. The food we eat and nourishes me has probably itself been nourished by the fertilizer’s manufactured at the numerous manufacturing facilities of Aditya Birla Group all over the country. Aluminium vessels have always been a big part of an average Indian household and mine is no different. All in all, the Aditya Birla Group is a part of my life right from the time I wake up till I sleep…. Oh, wait its actually even a part of my dreams of making it big in this life. That’s why I consider it to be a constant in most things I do.
