I have a BA and a diploma in computer applications from Hindu College, Amritsar. Plus, I have done a PG diploma in commercial arts from Apeejay College, Jalandhar.

Even though there were not many career opportunities, I was into theatre during my college days. I took part in plays and skits and won many awards in inter-college competitions. Theatre made me quite famous in the entire university because of the annual youth festivals. Today, I have a good life but I still miss my selfless friends.

My fondest memory of campus is grabbing Amritsari kulchas with my friends after college. Even today, whenever I go to Amritsar, after meeting my mother I rush to Punjab Naatshala to watch a play and also never miss a bite of kulchas and other delicacies.

A person should be thankful to campus life, which is instrumental to success.

The confidence, discipline and qualities like hard work that I possess today are definitely because of the exposure I got during college and university competitions.
