Get to know Chitranjan
What is your favourite invention or innovation?
Google Maps is my favourite invention‚ it’s simple yet incredibly effective. It cuts travel stress, offers real-time ETAs, and helps me discover hidden cafes, restaurants, and sightseeing spots. It is the perfect blend of utility and exploration.
What is your all-time favourite movie, TV show, OR book?
My all-time favourite movie is The Pursuit of Happyness. It beautifully captures the importance of perseverance and resilience in adversity. The film’s message about never giving up and focusing on the journey rather than the destination is truly inspiring.
What would you do with an hour of unexpected free time?
I would either catch up on the latest football or cricket match highlights or, if possible, sneak out for a quick game. Nothing beats staying connected to the sports I love as a spectator or player.
