A Single Drop Of The Human Spirit: Harshal Nikale
Harshal Nikale, an immensely talented photographer, talks about his journey and the circumstances that he had to navigate.
If you look at his work, you can clearly see the injection of the human spirit in the photographs he takes. Each picture contains an emotional element, one that he draws from his subjects and binds to the overarching theme of his work. And while he may not disclose it completely, it would, perhaps, be not too much of a stretch to say Harshal Nikale’s own personality bleeds into the manner in which he pursues photography as a craft. With larger thematic infusions of the human experience in his pictures, Harshal stands amongst the celebrated artists that are pushing the boundaries of their craft.
Raised in Mumbai, Harshal, now, realises that he has sort of adapted the fast paced life of the city into his own approach to work. It comes as a surprise to me, then, that his initial plan never had anything to do with photography. In fact, he was gearing up to pursue a career in sports. Harshal had played badminton and volleyball at the State level, during his college years, and wanted to explore his opportunities further in this regard. His father, however, was in love with photography and was an incredibly talented photographer in his own right.
In November of 2013, Harshal was seriously injured in an accident, which left him with major complications in his right leg. He explains that the incident left him in ICU for almost four weeks and he took an additional four hundred days to be able to walk and run with, somewhat, relative normalcy. Even so, he still feels residual pain and discomfort in his leg, something that he has made himself get accustomed to by now. The major fallout from this whole period in his life meant that Harshal would not be able to pursue a career in sports as he had first envisioned. His earliest dream was something that he, now, had to let go of. Still, even after the accident, Harshal went on to complete his engineering course and graduate with his degree.
Spending the next three to four months, after his graduation, at a corporate job, Harshal came to understand that this was something he could not put his heart into. He found the lifestyle somewhat suffocating. He needed to step back and reevaluate. His initial plan was in shambles. However, there was still something that he could salvage from it. His love for travelling. You see, back when he was competing at the various sporting events held throughout the country, Harshal was travelling to different parts of the country, immersing himself in the food and the local lifestyle that these places had to offer. Sure, competing in an event meant he had very little time for anything other than training and practice, however, whatever time he could manage, he spent it on understanding the cultural and social atmosphere of the places he was travelling to. Thinking back to this, he quit his job and began exploring options that would allow him to travel while also allowing him to make a living from it.
While he did consider the options available to him, a part of Harshal, perhaps, inherited his father’s love for photography. Settling on that, he chose to pursue it. A friend of his, who was a chef at a cruise ship, informed him of an opportunity that was available. Harshal would come on board the cruise ship and be hired for the position of the cruise photographer. The only hitch was that the position required him to have completed a certified course in photography. That, at the time, was something Harshal did not have.
Wanting his parents to have some time to themselves, Harshal decided to move to Pune to pursue a photography course at the Bhartya Vidyapeeth School of Photography. A complete beginner to the craft, Harshal knew very little about how to actually go about the course. Borrowing a camera from a cousin, so that he could, at least, finish his assignments over the weekend, he was, perhaps, a little lost. It wasn’t until he came clean to a professor of his that Harshal found some guidance. The professor, Madhusudan Tawade, was, in fact, more than happy to help him with anything he needed. The only thing he wanted from Harshal, himself, was that he went beyond what was expected from the other students. And, that is exactly what Harshal did. As a matter of fact, he recalls how he aced the first ever assignment, on the topic of ‘Depth of Field’, that was given to the class.
Finishing his course, Harshal went on the cruise that he was initially planning on. However, the adverse weather conditions started affecting the injury in his leg. You see, Harshal had gone on to have six operations due to his accident earlier and had metal plates in his leg. The rapidly changing weather, during the cruise, was not, by any means, a hospitable environment for that. In consequence, the medical team on board advised Harshal to go home and he was sent back on a medical leave. Things still weren’t going his way.
Dejected and frustrated, Harshal, for a brief amount of time, was left feeling a little confused as to what his next steps should be. Deciding to focus on growing a following on Instagram, in order to achieve professional recognition and gain clients, he put all his efforts there. Harshal was realistic in his goals, however. He set small milestones for himself to achieve and took all projects and assignments that came his way, from wedding photography to architecture photography. At the same time, Ganesh Vanare, going by the Instagram handle of ‘haram_khor_’, was paving a path for himself, back then, in the photography scene in Mumbai. Harshal reveals that he sort of looked up to him and the work he was doing with his team. Soon enough, Vanare noticed Harshal’s work and followed him on Instagram. It wasn’t much later that Harshal became a part of the team and began travelling the country for various projects and collaborations.
Touching on his own personal style, Harshal reveals that he gravitates towards including a human element in his own work. There is a need, for him, to capture the essence of a place in his photography. When including a human element in his work, he states that he feels that, in doing so, he adds a certain emotional aspect to his work. Even so, while travelling, Harshal looks towards harnessing some of the local life and the cultural atmosphere of the place he is in. Perhaps, this is a remaining need from his previous travels, back when he travelled to compete at sporting events. Back then, however, he never found the time to engage with a place and its people as much as he would have liked to. Now, however, he has complete freedom to do so.
When he looks back at the things he has had to overcome so far, Harshal opens up about some of the uncertainty he faced when he wanted to quit his job. It was difficult when he had to explain to his parents that a corporate life was something he did not want. They, however, supported his decision, endorsing him and, even, paying the fee for his photography course. That, he says, is something that he is incredibly grateful for. Still, that whole period of transition was one of bravest steps that he had to take. Even then, after finishing his course, when he went on to work professionally, as a photographer, the space of being a freelancer was a challenge for him to navigate. Gaining the trust of clients and working to deliver a product, in a highly competitive market, was something that he had to constantly deal with. It is a consistent affair even now, where there are so many other competing photographers who, often, lowball their other peers. This is something that, he says, kind of affects the work of other professional photographers.
When asked about some advice he would give to someone who is aspiring to set out to pursue a field that they are passionate about, Harshal is adamant about being honest with your own self, while recognizing where you stand in the current situation. Pursuing something that you love should be bolstered with the ability to put in the necessary work and the need to contribute, in a larger aspect, to the craft itself. And all of that stems from his own personal experiences. You see, Harshal Harshal’s story is not one based on a perfect picture. He has had his highs and lows. Through it all, he has been quite stubborn on facing things the way they come, never letting the circumstances overwhelm him. After all, his picture is a portrait of the human spirit.

Dhir Jakharia: From Dreams to Wildlife Frames
Dive into the captivating world of wildlife through the lens of Dhir Jakharia, a 20-year-old wildlife photographer, as we unravel his dreams and adventures behind the lens.
In the heart of Kenya, amidst the whispers of the wild, begins a remarkable journey. Born in the small town of Nyeri, Dhir Jakharia, a 21-year-old, grew up immersed in the rhythms of African life. Raised in the vibrant tapestry of African culture until the age of 13, Dhir Jakharia eventually moved to the capital, Nairobi. It was here that his love for photography sparked, eclipsing his childhood dreams of becoming a footballer. And his journey as a wildlife photographer began.
Embracing Change: From Football Dreams to Photography
Dhir Jakharia’s journey had a surprising twist. From dreaming of a career in professional football to unexpectedly finding his passion in photography, life had its own plans for him. His transition from an aspiring footballer to a passionate wildlife photographer was fueled by curiosity and love for nature. “I kind of just fell in love with it,” Jakharia reflects, recounting his photography journey. “Now I’m doing wildlife specifically, and I love the travelling aspect of it.”
Dhir Jakharia: Exploring Passion and Purpose
Currently pursuing Business Administration, Dhir Jakharia seamlessly combines his entrepreneurial spirit with his love for nature. “I’m a Gujarati, so I have business in my blood,” he states. Specializing in marketing, he envisions a future where his entrepreneurial spirit and artistic vision converge seamlessly. “I want to mix my photography with business,” he shares. “I’m already doing it on a small scale, selling prints and organizing photo tours.”
Through his lens, he seeks to foster awareness and empathy for the natural world. “Good photography helps to create awareness and can promote animal conservation,” he explains. Working on the logic of making people more familiar with their environment to ensure they try to conserve it, he explains further how when someone sees a picture of an elephant and likes it, they may think twice before partaking in animal cruelty.
Dhir Jakharia: Overcoming Challenges
The young photographer’s journey has not been without its share of challenges. The untimely passing of his father in 2020, and the disruptions caused by the pandemic. “Dealing with these difficulties was as difficult as you can imagine,” he reflects. “But channelling that negative energy into something constructive, that’s the biggest achievement I’ve gained from photography.”
Dhir Jakharia: Inspirations, Dreams and Beyond
Despite the hurdles he’s faced, Dhir Jakharia remains steadfast in his pursuit of excellence. Drawing inspiration from renowned photographers in the field of wildlife photography, such as Thomas Vijayan, Varun Aditya and Shaaz Jung, he continues to hone his craft with unwavering determination.
“I learned everything through YouTube,” he shares, underscoring the importance of persistence and resourcefulness in his journey. “It’s more about making the most out of what you have.”
In a field dominated by seasoned professionals, Dhir Jakharia is exceptional. “In ten years, I see myself as a full-time photographer, recognized internationally,” he shares. “But beyond success, I prioritize my mental health and relationships with family and friends.” Reflecting on his recent exhibition at the ‘Xposure International Photography & Film Festival’ in Sharjah, UAE, he speaks of his pride in being the youngest among his peers. “Inspiring people and making photography my full-time profession while living a fulfilling life—that’s my definition of success,”. Additionally, he has already left a mark in the industry by collaborating with industry giants like Sony and Adobe at the young age of 18.
Message for Young Dreamers
To aspiring dreamers embarking on unconventional paths, Dhir Jakharia offers a simple yet profound piece of advice: “Self-belief is the biggest thing. Dream big, aim for the stars—even if you fail, you’ll still reach the sky.” In the footsteps of giants and guided by his unwavering passion, Dhir Jakharia continues to weave tales of wonder through his lens, reminding us all of the magic that awaits in the embrace of nature.

Anant Ladha: A Man With A Mission
With a mission to spread financial literacy, finance creator Anant Ladha sits down with us for a quick chat on what drives him forward.
In this fast-paced world of technology, it’s hard to remain consistent. With changing algorithms and trends how can you remain consistent and relevant? And with everyday living prices going up daily, it’s hard to stick to your ethics. This is exactly when content creators like Anant Ladha with their YouTube channel Invest Aaj For Kal bring a refreshing change in this ever-changing system.
Anant Ladha: Early Days
Born and raised in Kota, Rajasthan, Anant Ladha’s introduction to finance and the stock market happened early in life. Being the third generation in his family to enter the financial world, he was exposed to trading and the stock market just like a kid would be exposed to cartoons. This gave a good foundation upon which he built up his entire life.
Starting as just a tactic to win over his teachers and peers, Anant Ladha originally began by keeping up with the ups and downs of the stock market to impress his teachers and friends. But whatever his intentions may be, this practice helped him a lot in his career as keeping up with the stock market became a regular part of his daily routine and helped him understand the nuances of the financial market better.
After initially starting his job at Mumbai in trading he left it to join his family business. While working there, an incident took place that changed his life forever. In his town, a company was closing down and all the employees were given around 50 lakhs corpus amount. Among them, one employee who had received this amount had invested it in an insurance scheme that wouldn’t allow him to withdraw the money until the five years were up. Desperately in need of money to support his sick wife in the hospital, the poor man showed up in tattered clothes begging Anant Ladha for money. His situation shocked Ladha and he realized that our country still is not as financially literate as he thought it was and hence he started on his mission to help convert India “from a country of savers to a country of investors.”
Invest Aaj For Kal
Starting as physical sessions, Ladha held free classes for people in certain parts of North India to help them become more financially literate. Two of his sessions were also recognised by the Rajasthan government. And everything was going fine but still, the huge financial literacy gap of the entire country was gaping widely at him. Hence, he decided to increase his target audience by going digital, leading to the inception of Invest Aaj For Kal.
Initially, for a good 1-1.5 years, his YouTube channel, Invest Aaj For Kal, didn’t do as well as he had expected. But consistent efforts, support from family and strong determination brought him to where he is today. With a little nudge from YouTube that put the spotlight on him by giving his channel the “Creator on the Rise” award in 2020, he was ready to make the most of his spotlight. From asking people to subscribe to his channel by talking about how great and informative it is without revealing that he owns the channel, to getting millions of views on every video, he has come a long way. The best part, Anant Ladha prioritises consistency over anything else and posts content regularly.
Message for Young Content Creators
Being the practical person that he is, he never blames fate or algorithms for fewer views but rather tries to find out how he can do better and revamp his content as and when required. He forever values the digital community that pushes him forward as he believes that the day he stops valuing them and takes them for granted will be the end of his career. For a man who went from working a 9-5 job to full-time content creator his definition of success changes every time he achieves something and this constant negotiation with success is the most practical way to view life.
Striking a balance between personal and professional life, Anant Ladha takes in bad comments like a pro. According to him, all his bad reviewers are truly his ardent followers as they wait to watch each of his videos just to leave bad reviews. And with this positive attitude, he leaves a message for young content creators:
“If earning money is the only objective you have through your digital journey then don’t enter this field. But if you’re objective is more than just earning money then it’s a beautiful field.”
His reasoning behind this lies in the fact that you won’t earn much in the initial years of creating content hence you must have a bigger purpose to sustain in this space for longer for yourself and your audience.

Ganeshprasad Sridharan: Indian Education Redefined
Set to put a dent in the Indian education system, meet Ganeshprasad Sridharan; a man who left no stone unturned to right the wrongs that hindered his growth in the education system.
How often does our education system frustrate us? And more importantly how often do we set out to rectify it rather than fitting into the one-size-fits-all mould it prescribes to us? Our education system needs some serious re-designing and there’s no point hiding it any longer. We had a conversation with Ganeshprasad Sridharan; a man who left no stone unturned to right the wrongs that hindered his growth in the education system; to understand his side of efforts to bridge the gap that exists between the present and the future, i.e., learning and getting hired via Think School.
Ganeshprasad Sridharan: The Start of It All
Born and brought up in Pune, Ganeshprasad Sridharan’s schooling was pretty similar to others with just one difference; in his school, his teachers ensured to foster the students’ critical thinking ability. He was made to think about morality on an individual level rather than blindly following it as a societal norm. As the teachers asked him to re-examine Brutus’s character in the play Julius Caesar, he got a sense that there is no one right or one wrong in the world. He understood the value of subjectivity and cherished the individuality it brought with it.
Going from such an enriching environment to an engineering college which heavily relied on rote learning was a huge shocker for Sridharan. At college, neither was anybody willing to stop, think and understand the principles nor did the teachers wish to make them understand it. Plus the 75% mandatory attendance only adds to the pressure of fitting into the mould as students get less time to explore their interests and abilities. The constant assignments and exams with mediocre teaching that one was bound to attend set one up on a sure path of failure. The herd mentality which makes people follow along to crack the coveted UPSC which has a 0.2% pass percentage ensures that individuals are trapped in that conventional path of failure forever. To put a dent in the Indian education system and break this cycle of failure, Ganeshprasad Sridharan along with his partner Prakash Kothari came up with Think School.
Think School
With a motto, “To put a dent in the Indian education system by providing world-class education at a price that is less than a pair of denim jeans” Ganeshprasad Sridharan started Think School with his partner Prakash Kothari. With a rocky beginning that led to them shutting their physical classroom due to the pandemic, it was social media that not only saved but ensured that Think School thrived like never before.
Trying to bridge these three gaps; business education, communication and fundamental principles of entrepreneurship; by providing a masterclass on each, Think School has made the internet the one-stop destination to hone your business acumen. Realising that their audience can’t afford pricey offline classes, the move to social media such as YouTube was a great decision on the founders’ part.
Ensuring that the quality of Think School is never compromised they have a very detailed value system through which they select the core members of their team. Some of them as described by Sridharan include; the ability to critically analyse oneself, the ability to give brutal feedback, the ability to take in brutal feedback and lastly the attitude to constantly learn and improve.
According to Ganeshprasad Sridharan, it’s not “the breadth of influence” but rather the “depth of influence” that matters more. For him, Think School’s success lies in being considered a reliable source of information not just for students in IIM and other universities and schools but even for professors and established businessmen who rely on its practical and interesting approach to enhance their abilities.
What Makes A Great Entrepreneur?
According to Ganeshprasad Sridharan, it’s the extraordinary sharpness in finding better opportunities by doing market research, being able to read and address the gap presented by market research to understand your opportunity better, ability to execute one’s plan fast and daring to fail so that one learns the value of resilience over time, and lastly remaining relevant by evolving with technology and understanding the target audience and their needs; all of this makes the perfect recipe for a great entrepreneur. When Sridharan started his venture, many had their doubts regarding it but he trusted himself as according to him, he was following his heart as it had logic to it. Others could only project their doubts and hesitation but not provide a logic strong enough to persuade him to abandon his venture. And in today’s cut-throat world of business, this is truly a great virtue to harbour.
The masterclass at Think School ensures that one develops this business acumen through practical assignments in which the students are given full liberty to complete them how they feel like it. Following his grandfather’s advice to; “Use language not to confuse people but to convince them”, in each video of Think School, Ganeshprasad Sridharan and Prakash Kothari are building the pillars of modern education that values and foster individuality with one video and masterclass at a time.
Lastly, Ganeshprasad Sridharan’s message to all the budding entrepreneurs is:
“Keep learning and keep reading because market research will help you find opportunities and reading will help you tap into those opportunities. Passion alone will not take you anywhere unless you have a direction. Direction will come with two things: the ability to do market research to find problems and the ability to read and learn to address those problems better.”

Arvind Arora: A True Inspiration
Never losing faith in himself and trudging forward in life, Arvind Arora managed to make a name for himself in this rapidly changing world.
Making a life for yourself when the whole world is against you seems like something that happens only in the movies. But we often forget that these movies are almost always inspired by reality. Among many such inspirations, one is Arvind Arora, the founder of the YouTube channel A2 Motivation a visionary who never stopped dreaming and working on them. He believed that rather than having a fancy degree knowing what your strength is and honing that skill to perfection and being able to find ways to answer a question rather than knowing the answer all the time will take you a long way forward. Recently, The Talented Indian caught up with him to keep the chain of inspiration going.
Arvind Arora: Life Before Youtube
Coming from a small family in a small city in Rajasthan, life for Arvind Arora wasn’t always easy. In small cities, it so happens that one’s future is more often than not pre-determined, but Arvind Arora decided that he would not let anyone decide the course of his life and set out to make his path on his own. Life wasn’t easy as he faced rejection and was asked to leave many teaching centres because of work politics, but he never stopped believing in himself.
According to him, his parents weren’t supportive of his dreams initially. And when his father told him to go and do what he liked as he would render the fruits of his hard work, he took that advice very seriously. Unlike many parents who shower a lot of love and spoon-feed their children to ensure their success, his father never spoon-fed him. By doing so he ensured that his son learnt how to be accountable for his actions and through that, he supported him by ensuring that he grows up as a self-reliant individual.
As Arvind Arora was a topper in his school his father believed that given his brilliance he should be allowed to study for free. Hence, he refused to pay the school fees and whenever the school authorities would haggle him about the same he just suggested transferring him to another school as he knew the true worth of his son. But obviously, no school agreed on this as that’s how invaluable he was to the institution. According to Arora, he shared a rather weird relationship with his father. Instead of spoiling him like many parents do he gave him the independence to do what he likes and through that, he ended up supporting his son in the long run.
Arvind Arora: Inspiration & Baby Steps Towards YouTube
The one person who inspired Arora the most and continues to be a source of inspiration even today is his wife. Having an age gap wherein she was older than him by five years, they had to go through several ordeals before they could be united but they never gave up on each other and themselves and continuously worked on each other and improved themselves. It was his wife who helped him start his journey on YouTube as she had already started her own and was able to guide him through the entire process.
(If you’re as curious as me and want to check out Arvind Arora’s wife’s YouTube channel, who by the way has some really creative and easy-to-make cooking ideas to share you can click here. Though she has stopped posting on her channel for a few years now I am sure her easy-to-understand videos will remain forever helpful for anyone who is starting out in cooking as well as for those who want to try out something new.)
After graduating from Swami Keshvanand Institute of Technology, Management & Gramothan, Jaipur, Rajasthan, Arora was all set to be an engineer working in the corporate sector. But before he ventured into that he decided to try out teaching and turns out he truly has a knack for the art of teaching.
Some people have degrees from highly reputed universities but are not great teachers. And some like Arvind Arora don’t hold fancy degrees but yet are amazing teachers. What sets them apart is their way of communicating with others and their delivery. Hence, even today Arvind Arora’s education videos still garner a lot of views on YouTube. (If you’re looking for some motivation or some random facts, make sure to check out Arvind Arora’s channel by clicking here.)
Arvind Arora: The Journey Towards Becoming a Top YouTuber
Initially, Arora started his journey on YouTube with educational videos and later turned to creating motivational and “facts” videos. Just like any other YouTuber, he struggled with the algorithm and the immense competition but what pushed him forward was his attitude to never give up and being open to learning.
He mentioned how he ensured to go through the comments that he received on each of his videos as they guided him as to how to go forward in terms of content creation. When he struggled with the algorithm he didn’t hesitate to ask for help and reached out to YouTube asking for feedback and worked on them. But most importantly, he never stopped putting out content as according to him you should not fear the public’s opinion so much that you stop expressing yourself.
According to him being disciplined helped him a lot in life as it ensured that he remained consistent in his work. Although he agrees that one need not be so rigid in life that they don’t try out new things as you only have one shot at life, he also thinks that there are certain areas in life where one needs to be rigid to achieve something. And that’s where discipline comes into the picture.
According to him, true success is being satisfied with yourself. He agrees that one does need to work towards earning more money at a certain age, but he also agrees that one need not make it their only goal in life. Focusing on yourself and improving yourself physically and mentally is equally important and he has started doing so too. In fact, according to Arora, he would have probably ended up working as a fitness trainer had he not ended up where he is today.
Afterword
Arora’s parting words and message to young dreamers everywhere is to keep experimenting in life. According to him, you have just got around 70 years on Earth, do you really want to spend it holed up in an office? He hopes that dreamers keep their dreams alive and experiment with different careers in their lives as well as learn different skills to live a very enriching life. Coming from nothing to building his own company and channel by never giving up on himself Arvind Arora continues to be a source of inspiration. And with these parting words, he starts the chain of inspiration by inspiring this one interviewer.

Rakesh Tiwari: A Poet Weaving the Fabric of Life
Celebrating Rakesh Tiwari and his work which is crafting life’s symphony through poetry and breaking barriers of elitism.
Poetry has always been a powerful medium, capable of touching the deepest chords of our hearts. It holds the magical power to not only articulate emotions but also entertain and deeply move us. Rakesh Tiwari, a multifaceted poet, author and storyteller, embarks on a mission to unwrap the intricate tapestry of life through his captivating poetic performances. His journey began with the simple act of rhyming, but he soon recognized the profound potential of his craft to create impactful poetry that could be performed and shared with the world.
His poetry mirrors life’s diverse and intricate flavours, each composition offering a distinct essence that resonates with a spectrum of audiences.
One of his well-known works is “Veg Biriyani” which playfully delves into the bond between vegetarians and beloved biriyani. His words advocate celebrating India’s diverse traditions, cultures and tastes while emphasizing the importance of respecting each other’s choices to foster unity.
Another well-known one is “Zindagi” which gives us a humorous take on the modern-day obsession with brands, exposure, internet culture, and social media. Tiwari highlights the superficiality of the current generation’s pursuits, where every moment is curated for online display, adorned with hashtags, and evaluated by the number of likes and comments.
Rakesh Twiari draws inspiration from a variety of sources, but it was the qawwali shows that his mother lovingly watched that plated the seeds of rhythm in him. His poetic journey began with exploring rhymes, which eventually became an artistry of words and emotions. It was the passing of his father that prompted him to pen down his first mature poem “ Mann Ka Mail”, a change from the usual love poems he penned in college.
Some of his more melancholic poetry is “Bachpan”, which serves as a heartfelt tribute to the innocence and carefreeness of childhood. Tiwari remembers his school days, scolding from his parents, and pure friendships that defined this phase of life.
“Amma Ki Atachi” tenderly reflects the emotional farewell to a mother. He pays homage to the cherished memories and ordinary things that held immense sentimental value. Tiwari’s poetry flows naturally from the depths of his feelings, being a potent medium for self-expression.
Rakesh Tiwari aspires to be a poet of the people, aiming to break down the barriers of elitism within the realm of art. His poetry has been a source of solace and companionship to many, with people expressing their gratitude for the solace and support they have found through his poetry. He encourages young artists to not shy away from the monotony that often accompanies life’s journey. Emphasizing the importance of perseverance and faith.
Though he has dedicated 11 years of his life working in a call centre, Rakesh’s unwavering belief was that his poetry would eventually pave the way for the realization of his dream-a life as a freelancer. His journey radiates the enduring power of faith and the unwavering pursuit of one’s passion. In the darkest tunnels of life, the light of hope always shines through, and Rakesh Tiwari’s story stands as a testament to this profound truth.
