Beyond Business Sport, Craft & Curiosity

Life isn’t just business or badminton. It’s images captured, curiosities chased, and quiet moments explored, everything that subtly shapes how I lead and it’s in these moments that inspiration often quietly appears.

Outside the boardroom: sport, travel, photography

I'm a father first, then Businessman, CEO and Investor, but who I am at work is shaped by the things I do away from it. On the court I practice discipline. On long journeys I practice curiosity. Behind the camera I practice attention. These are not hobbies; they are facets of how I think, lead and make choices.

This page collects short stories and images from those pursuits: moments that remind me why clear observation, patient preparation and a willingness to explore new ground are essential to leadership.

What competitive badminton taught me about leadership

Competing for India - travelling for tournaments, preparing with teams, and testing myself on international courts - taught me how to manage pressure and to sustain focus when outcomes matter most.

The lessons are simple yet practical: preparation matters, recovery is strategic, and decisions under pressure should be clear and principled. These habits translate directly into the way I run companies and mentor teams.

Travel

Travel as a way to understand context

My travels are not just trips; they are opportunities to observe how people live, work and solve everyday problems. That perspective informs better business decisions - from product fit to partnership strategy - because context matters more than assumptions.

Photography

A practice in attention

Photography teaches me to notice - light, gesture, small details that change a scene. In business, that same attention reveals the subtle signals customers and partners send, long before they become obvious.

The images here are personal: moments that paused me, scenes that asked for a second look. I share them because they show how I train my eye for the things that matter.
