Currently I am
Working towards getting young people to take up ice skating and speed skating.
High point in life
Being the only Indian at the Winter World Masters Games twice, and winning a total of eight medals. I have also represented India in two World Cups (2021–2022).
Low point in life
In 2018, while training for the winter Olympics, I had a bad crash that cracked my patella and dislocated some ribs. I didn’t give up. I skated on the frozen Pangong Tso to regain my zen, and started all over again.

My secret skill is
