Favorite 3 movies of all time: Shawshank Redemption, Escape from Alcatraz, Escape to Victory, Inception and list continues...

Favorite book: Hmmm I don't read novels it might be since I don't have this habit from childhood or I don't have time to do. If I need to tell some favorite books it should be Engineering books - Digital Communications, VLSI Design, Technology Transfer and so on..

Favorite hobbies: Watching Movies, Cooking, Chatting with friends, Reading through blogs.

Interesting fact about yourself: I did my engineering in Electronics and Communications and landed into software industry. Still I wanted to have a backup plan if software Industry doesn't suits me at my Mid & Old age, So I did MTech in VLSI and MBA in Technology Management while working. My backup plan doesn't stops here... :-) I  like roaming to different countries, their cuisines and culture. I keep talking to people and try to read their minds and know how people think and react in different situations. I strongly believe in the phrase: 'Changing the Face' can change nothing. But 'Facing the Change' can change everything.
