I still remember the day of my convocation when me and my father had worn suits by Peter England which made me feel so proud and confident on the day. I still cherish the smile on father’s face when he saw me holding my degree. With me getting into MDI, I was up for another challenge as I was living away from home for the first time in my life but Idea ensured that all my loved ones were just a phone call away which literally had me saying, ‘What an Idea, Sirji’!
A challenge which I faced in life
As a B.Com graduate from one of the most prestigious institutions in India, pursuing an MBA after my under graduation was always the logical step ahead for me and my goal had always been to get into one of the top business schools of the country MDI being one of them.
With my goal being crystal clear, I started my CAT preparation in the second year of my college. CAT is one of the toughest examinations of the country and me scoring a 98.85 percentile was a huge achievement for me but the celebrations were soon over with the GDPI dates of colleges being released. This was the last step before I could realise my dream of getting into a top Business school and I decided to go all out to prepare for the GDPI round of MDI which was my best call. On the day of the interview, I was very confident of my preparation but as they say that things don’t always go your way and the suit which was wore on the day tore after being stuck in a hook. I could see my dreams getting shattered for such a petty reason but thanks to the network of Aditya Birla Group stores, I found a Pantaloons outlet in Camac Street which was very close to the hotel in which the interview was to be conducted. The suit which I bought from the store looked and fitted even better than the original one and the I was able to sail through the interview and get into one of the most prestigious post graduate programmes of the country for which I will always be thankful to the Aditya Birla Group for launching such a high quality production chain in our country.
