About Me
Grade 9 student at Aditya Birla World Academy, Mumbai •
National & international award-winning Kathak dancer, trained since age five.
Author of Never Say No — a practical guide to confidence, courage, and
self-leadership for teenagers.
Author of The Power Is Yours, written at age 10.
🔹 WHY I’M HERE
I grew up around conversations that encouraged me to try — even when things felt unfamiliar or difficult. I was inspired by my grandfather to step up, take responsibility, and not shy away from challenges, and supported by parents who trusted me enough to explore, learn, and make mistakes safely.
That trust pushed me beyond what felt comfortable — from learning outside classrooms to interning with 17 entrepreneurs across industries, observing how real decisions are made, how setbacks are handled, and how confidence is built through action. Somewhere along the way, I realised something quietly powerful: we are capable of much more than we think, when we are allowed to try.
That realisation shaped my journey and led me to write Never Say No.
MY VISION
My vision is to help students build that belief — by learning how to think clearly, act with courage, and grow through experience.
Through my books, initiatives, and Teen / Student Workshops, I aim to create thoughtful spaces where students develop resilience, self-belief, communication, and decision-making skills — not through pressure, but through preparation for real

A NOTE ON MY FIRST BOOK
At the age of 10, I wrote my first book, The Power Is Yours,
after interviewing 47 teachers and principals across India to understand what truly helps students succeed. That early curiosity about learning, mindset, and leadership continues to guide everything I do today.
🚀 TEEN / STUDENT WORKSHOPS
Recap
Inspired by Never Say No
The Teen / Student Workshops are interactive, activity-based sessions inspired by the themes of Never Say No. They are designed to help students build confidence early, think independently, and take action without waiting to feel perfect.
Through stories, discussions, games, role-plays, movie clips, and real-life examples, students learn to connect ideas from the book to their own daily lives — at school, with peers, and within themselves.
