The Morning Standard

He compares himself with Farhan Qureshi, played by R Madhavan in the 2009 Bollywood hit 3 Idiots, as he claims that he left engineering to follow his passion for photography.
He is Abhay Singh, now known as IIT Baba by some and Engineer Baba by others, found on the Sangam ghats attending Maha Kumbh.
Reflecting on the growing pull among youth towards Sanatan, especially among professionals, it is not only Engineer Baba but many like him, from various walks of life, could be seen attending Maha Kumbh as they have taken to the spiritual path, renouncing worldly pursuits.
The ongoing Maha Kumbh is replete with many such stories. Abhay Singh, the Engineer Baba, is a native of Haryana. He claims to be a former aerospace engineering student from IIT-Bombay.
