Me (in Blue shirt with microphone) with my family on my 40th birthday (Click on picture for larger image) |
On July 14, 2012, I turned 40 years old. 40... OMG! For some reason 40 is in many minds a real landmark in a person's life and I'm no different. I feel pretty much the same as I did before. But I feel that this is the beginning of a new phase in my life. More responsibility perhaps.
We had a nice big party at the Oberoi Hotel, New Delhi. It was also a very special day in another way. My father stepped down as the Managing Director (though he will continue as Chairman) and announced in the party that I would be taking over as the new Managing Director of the Chintels Group! I am honored and humbled at the same time. I pray to God to help me in my new role and I hope that I will be able to do the job to the best of my ability.
What a 40th birthday present!
