Aditya Birla group is a vast empire involved in a large number of verticals, in cement, textiles, fashion, telecom, financial services and also retail. The brands that are most know to me are Ultratech cement, Pantaloons, People, Allen Solly, Van Huesen, Peter England, Louis Phillippe and More. Amongst all this the More is the brand I have had maximum contact with, We have been buying groceries as well daily use products for a really long time. There is at least 2 outlets at 5 km distance from my house. They are well stocked and have good value. They have many outlets and are the first to open. So, if you need something early in the morning it’s the place to go. Also, their fashion brands are amazing. Allen Solly is my go top brand for formal clothing.The shirts fit amazingly well and also last really long.Pantaloons is really good for ethnic clothing and I have many kurtis from there. People has really quirky tops and fun clothes. Used to be a favorite during high school. Van Huesen is a brand that is my fathers favourite. I got him a T-Shirt from there, a green one for his 50th birthday which he wore proudly. Peter England is reserved for my boyfriend, their checked shirt collection looks really good on him. I used their Vodafone network for 4 years , not anymore, but it was long enough. ABG is all around me, I dint even realize have used so many of their products until I looked into brands under them for this.
I was a very shy person in middle school. I had low self confidence because of insecurities about the way I looked and not being part of the popular group. I would not feel good around my classmates or peers. I thought I was too fat or not good looking enough. It all changed when I started rowing which is a water-based sport. I started training hard and winning events at state and national level. I went every morning and evening, to get the best fitness I can. I pushed more as I started doing better in my tests and was encouraging.I felt good about myself, strong mentally as well physically. I would win on sports day and met a lot of interesting people through my sport, who were encouraging and supportive. I went on the win multiple medals in national and state level. In the process made some good friends in rowing as well in school., who showed me acceptance was everything. Looks don’t matter as long as you are happy with yourself. Actually you don’t have time to worry about stuff like that when you are focused on something. I owe my sport everything including the outgoing and open person I am today. This is something I would tell every teenager, that they should do something apart from studies, it could be anything a sport, music, dance, anything that interests them, because it changes the whole way you look at the world. That way you are not stuck overthinking, you will be trying to do your best at something amazing that will be with you lifelong.
