From Failing the Exam to Being a Question in the Exam; Meet Nikhil Chandwani

Nikhil Chandwani took up electronics engineering due to his inclination towards science. He was an average student; however, he couldn’t adjust emotionally and mentally in the college atmosphere for long. He barely passed his first year of engineering and by the second year, he faced his biggest nightmare. He failed in 3 subjects!!! This was way too much to handle.

One day while he was drinking with his friends, he was approached by an old man. During the conversation, the old monk told Nikhil, “Life is a blessing when passion stands tall.” These lines somehow made an impact on Nikhil. He was always passionate about writing; he started writing when he was in the eighth standard, in the tenth standard and so on. There was one obstacle though. How would he make a career out of writing? He knew making a living through writing was not an easy road to traverse.

Nikhil already failed and he felt that he had nothing to lose. He had all the time in the world and it was not long before when he grabbed a pen and paper and thus began his literary journey. He wrote his first book within three months and three more books thereafter. Nikhil’s journey skyrocketed from there and now there was no turning back. The most thrilling moment however in his life was when there was a question about him in one of the examination papers, the same exam which he failed. Could it get better than this!!
