With Late Sri Krishna Kumar Binani, A wonderful person, endearing boss, great leader, friendly mentor and everything one could look for in a good mentor.

Today when I look at lots of such events that I spent with my mentor uncle Late Sri Krishna Kumar Binani, I wonder, “Will these moments come once again?” Well, I know that’s no more possible. But some memories are unforgettable, they always remain heartwarming.

Old memories, with my mentor Late Sri Krishna Kumar Binani in a business meet.

Launching Yet We Marry in Bangalore

Yet We Marry in the hands of Sharath Komarraju - the famous author of Murder in Amaravati and The Winds of Hastinaour

These moments often occur when we attend a seminar or a workshop together. Truly overwhelmed to be with my director Mr Sudershan Binani and colleagues Dr R B K Chatterjee and Dr Manas Chakraborty and erstwhile colleague Dr P K Singh at Susrut Eye Foundation & Research Centre.

An achievement is unique to your experience and tells that you can deliver. It brings a lasting impact for your company and brings a sense of fulfilment for you that you have created, built and designed it. LASIK Centre – it is one those several projects for which I really worked very hard and gave my everything. And just when it started showing the positive signs of growth, I had to wind up the centre.

I started working on my literary works in 1997. My first book was published in 2002. Since then I dreamt of writing a romantic love story, but I put my dreams on hold to focus on my career and my core specialization. Finally, in 2016 I plucked up the courage to put pen to paper with my FIRST novel “YET WE MARRY”.
