How I Learned to Win Before the World Woke Up

The Early Discipline

My journey didn’t start in a boardroom. It started at 3:30 AM - while most kids were still asleep, I was chasing shuttlecocks under flickering lights.

- Training every day for over 10 years not just my body, but my mind, my habits, my resolve.

I wasn’t born into business.
I was born into discipline.

That discipline became my DNA.
What began on the badminton court became a mindset - one that now powers everything I do as Founder & CEO of Craze For Marketing.


From Athlete to Leader

From winning my 1st district and state badminton championships in 2004 to competing nationally and internationally, I learned that greatness isn’t a gift - it’s a decision.

A decision to show up when no one’s watching.
A decision to lead with quiet fire.

That mindset - the one that made me train while it was still dark outside - became the foundation of everything I do today.


A Family Built on Hustle & Leadership

My story isn’t mine alone.
My father began his journey as a paperboy, delivering newspapers door-to-door.
Today, he’s the Editorial Head of the very same national paper he once delivered - and a self-made entrepreneur across real estate, hospitality, and investments.

    That’s not just career growth.

  • Founder IconIt’s legacy
  • Founder IconIt’s belief
  • Founder IconIt’s proof that hustle, when anchored in vision, creates impact.

2014 – The Year Everything Shifted – Delhi University

That year, I left my hometown and stepped into the powerhouse Delhi University.
A place known for producing India’s brightest commercial minds,

  • Founder IconBoldest entrepreneurs
  • Founder IconThinkers
  • Founder IconPolicy-makers

But I was not there just to attend, but to lead.

  • Founder IconI ran for student elections.
  • Founder IconI debated on real stages.
  • Founder IconI connected, campaigned, and earned 2,100+ votes

It was there I realised:

Leadership isn’t about power.
It’s about people. About impact. About being heard - and helping others feel seen.

That experience shaped the way I lead today - with clarity, empathy, and the courage to speak when it matters.


2019 – I Shifted My Residence – University of Wollongong

After working hands-on in Advertising, Marketing, Augmented Reality (AR), e-Commerce, Hospitality tech, F&B brands, and Tech Retail, I chose to deepen my understanding where it counts - earning a Dual Master’s in Business, Marketing & International Business from the University of Wollongong, Australia.

I didn’t just complete the degree. I owned it.

  • Founder IconScored 93 in Marketing Strategy
  • Founder IconReceived a Dean’s Letter of Achievement
  • Founder IconAnd learned how to turn insight into implementation at scale

This wasn’t just theory - it was fuel for everything I now bring to the brands we build at CFM.


Branding Isn’t What I Do - It’s Who I Am

After university, after working in corporates. I didn’t “fall” into marketing. I chose it - because it blended everything I love:

  • Founder IconPsychology
  • Founder IconHuman emotion
  • Founder IconStrategic thinking
  • Founder IconBuilding something that makes people feel something

But the game changed when I realised something deeper:

The best brands aren’t built to sell. They’re built to awaken.
To awaken belief. Emotion. Movement. Legacy.

And that’s when Craze For Marketing was born.


Craze For Marketing: Not Just an Agency. A Calling.

I didn’t build Craze For Marketing to run a business.
I built it to create something I didn’t see in the industry

A space where brands could be built with soul, not ego.
Where clarity would matter more than clutter.
Where every design, every word, every strategy would feel human.

CFM was never just a job.

It’s my dharma in action.
And if you’re reading this, maybe it’s meant to awaken something in you too.

From Mindset to Movement

If you’ve made it this far, chances are…

  • Founder IconYou’re not looking for just another someone.
  • Founder IconYou’re looking for a partner who gets the strategy and the story.
  • Founder IconWho knows how to scale - and how to feel.

So let’s build something bold.
Let’s build something you’ll be proud of in 10 years.
Let’s make your mark. Let’s build something extraordinary.

“My whole life, I’ve hustled to make a mark - that’s what led me to marketing.”

“I believe branding is energy, marketing is memory, and impact starts with intention.”
