For me ‘Why Aditya Birla Group is big in your life’:

  • Amidst all the hustle-bustle retaining the warmth and freshness of the food after packing for hours is a challenge. Thanks to ‘Hindalco Freshwrapp Aluminium Foil’ which does this extraordinarily. This is one of the handiest and widely used in the kitchen.
  • Vodafone Idea Limited is the leading telecom service provider in India and second largest globally. No doubt the company has superior voice and broadband connectivity across India. Highly customer centric and playing a great role in my life.
  • Everyday apparels brands like Van Heusen, Allen Solly, Peter England, Louis Philippe, forever 21 and even Pantaloons store, which we are used are also a part of ABG.
  • Ultratech Cement, largest manufacturer of cement in India, has a special place in everyone’s heart and mind when it comes to construction. It’s on the top of the mind of every customer as ‘India’s No.1 cement’.

How you overcame challenges to achieve your ambitions in life so far?

They say, ‘If you’re not being challenged as such, you’re not learning anything as such’. Indeed, it is true. Challenges are opportunities for self-growth which stretch us from our comfort zone. I have faced many challenges in life rather than overseeing it, I embraced them and conquered them and converted them into opportunity.

One such challenge I remember pretty well is while working with Bhumi NGO, who works for poor and destitute kids. One of the biggest challenge for any NGO is to raise funds. We were working on the same day and night and had a lot of brainstorming sessions for different funding sources. One of the best method came up was ‘Beach clean-up drive’. It was intriguing but yet challenging. The idea was basically to create awareness about the NGO and raise funds. We chose Juhu beach as it has very high footfall and also located in prime location in Mumbai. Finally the day arrived and after slogging for almost 5 hours i.e. from 7am to 12pm, we cleaned the beach to a very large extent and managed to collect 25k in cash and few visiting cards as well. Our work was also praised by BMC officers of Mumbai.

We never had any such experience but still we, team of 35 students, managed to face and overcome the challenge. To sum it up, if you have the burning DESIRE (coupled with persistence and hard work) to do something, you’re bound to achieve your summit.
