1. So, what’s interesting about you?
Interesting? lemme see. I have a great passion for Photography and Food. Have had a passion for photography for a while now, but recently got my first DSLR. As in case of food, that’s not exactly a new passion, it’s in my blood. I’m a Punjabi, you see? :D Put money, success, fame, fortune and glory on one side and Butter Chicken on the other, we’d choose Butter Chicken. :)


2. What does Manipal/ManipalBlog mean for you?

Manipal is a place which helped me find myself. It’s shown me what I’m actually capable of and what I truly am inside. It has brought out my both by dark and the good side. Had I seen a ‘flashfoward’ of myself 2 years ago, there was no way in hell i would have believed that it was me. I’ve had my crazy share of up’s and down’s in my life at Manipal until yet. But whatever it has brought about, I’m happy for it and glad to see myself finally out of the shell and living my life :)
3. 5 Things only you can do are?
  1. Eat continuously for an entire day.
  2. Sleep continuously for an entire day.
  3. Eat in my sleep.
  4. Sleep during eating.
  5. Boo! Too lazy to think of another one.
4. How many fractures and piercings do you have?

I had my eyebrow pierced a year back.

I have had only 1 fracture and that was last semester itself. I fractured my right foot and was on crutches for 2 weeks and had the plaster for another 2 weeks. There are 2 versions of the story how it happened. One was the ‘official’ version for my parents and relatives where I slipped off the stairs while going for breakfast one morning. The other version includes me at a friend’s birthday party, having had ‘a little’ bit over the top to drink, a few hazy memories of me dancing at the dance floor like crazy and falling quite a number of times as well. This story somehow goes blank around midnight and starts back again in the morning with me lying at my apartment floor with what happened to be a fractured foot. Hangover 3 was experienced by me, LIVE. Now if this article in any way reaches my mom’s eyes, I’m going to KILL you.
I had my eyebrow pierced a year back. It was pretty kick ass as well. Some of the girls digged it ;)  Attaching a picture for the ladies as well :D
But i had to get rid of it eventually before coming home. Another one maybe, sometime soon when I’m back to Manipal I guess :)
5. What is the meaning of life? 

Well as you can kind of figure out I’m a kind of happy-go-lucky guy who has had his share of up’s and down’s in the recent past. But I still try to overcome whatever life throws at me and make the best of what I’ve got. And that’s what life is to me. Staying happy, being at peace with yourself. Chill. Take life easily. ‘What’s the meaning of life?’ Itne bade bade sawaal kyun poochte ho bhai log? Live life as it comes. :)
