Talk about your journey as an entrepreneur. When and how did it begin? 

I entered the adventure sector by the way of my family. The project was started by my father while I was in college and I was an inaugural bungee jumper at that time. There was this understanding that I will join the family business plus it was an interesting prospect in adventure sports. I completed my master's in marketing in the U.K, came back and officially joined in 2013. Since the very beginning, I was fond of writing and my parents were always the first readers and that motivated me as a kid. My latest book- 3…2…1… Jump, a literary travel fiction, has been inspired by the journey of our jumpers and is a product of my love for Bungee Jumping. It was a theme brewing in my mind since almost a decade now and I finally got to writing it during lockdown! I am glad to finally have it launched.
