With Bopanna

Me: How do you see our Country in the future?
Bops: To begin with our country is huge.There is lots to be seen and explored, people have underestimated India, it is up to people like us to give it a future, a future everyone should look up to.

Me: What is your future plans in Symphony?
Bops: Plans are many.I just remember a saying "Dont believe in your future by looking at your palms, because even people without hands also have a future.

Me: Do you dream big?
Bops: I always use my MBA books as my pillow.So i dream big.Seriously speaking dreams are good, it brings out the creativity in you and yearn for more, so dream big....Remember dreams has not killed anyone.

Me: So you believe in Examination competencies than your managerial competencies.(U mean Bookish Knowledge is greater?)
Bops: To sum it all its your experince and your attitude towards life is all that matters, Remember not all top managers are rank holders, not all rank holders are top level mangers, books will not get you to the top.

Me: What is your message for the new generation of India?
Bops: Be what you want to be and not be what others want you to be.

Me:Thank you Bopanna .It was a pleasure talking to you.
