"This was my home back then—a small town in Odisha, Rourkela, where I was born, grew up, and studied till class 12 (1988-2006). Revisited in 2021 for the memories! Today, my home in Dubai tells the story of 17 years of relentless hard work, sleepless nights, and no shortcuts. Success takes time. What's your excuse?"
