| Introduction | An IIT-BHU Alumunus, Chemical Engineer by Chance, Sofware Engg by co-incidence (Infosys) and an Entrepreneur by Choice. Started my first venture (Mom's Kitchen) at the age of 25 - a roller coaster ride of three years during which I went through an entire gamut of emotions and learnings which shaped me what I'm today. Currently hell bent on making www.tastykhana.com the most reverred online food ordering company in the country. I'm fascinated by Robert Frost and its eternal lines 'Woods are lovely,dark and deep, but I have promises to keep And Miles to go before I sleep and Miles to go before I sleep'. |
