Living alone is a dream for many of us, many Indian kids envy the Americans leaving their houses when they are as young as 18, But we know nothing about living alone, at least the ones who have never been to a Hostel don't. In today's episode Me, Ashlesh & Rishabh are joined by our dear friend Prerna Sharma who is living in a Hostel in Bangalore away from her hometown Mumbai. She shares with us the lows and highs of the independence she felt there and how it affected her in its entirety. Join us today if you have ever wanted to live alone, or wanted to go live in a hostel or are planning to live by yourself in the future.

Childhood dreams, The most innocent and probably the most easily forgotten. We go through a variety of "Dreams"  some of us Pursue what we dream but very few stick to their childhood dream and pursue it as a career path.  Today Me, Ashlesh & Rishabh are joined by just the right person for this topic, our dear friend Aksheet Ramteke who is on the way of achieving his childhood dream of being a Pilot. Tune in to the episode to know how he could stick to his dream and to get some insights into the world of a Future Pilot.

When thinking about the future, a lot of us find ourselves torn between our studies and our hobbies. Our parents want us to focus on the studies but we want to focus on the hobby more. In today's episode I, Ashlesh & Rishabh are joined by our friend Nikhil Patil who went through a similar dilemma between his love of Art and his course CA. As it is well known how tough CA is, I also ask Nikhil for his experiences and tips on how he got through this treacherous course. I am sure this will be helpful for CA aspirants.

What is success? In my opinion this a very vague question in itself, to which the answer is different for everyone. Sometimes success is related to Money, good marks, popularity, and fame. And sometimes to self-satisfaction and gratification.

In every class, there is that annoying kid who just keeps getting full marks, comes first in all the exams, and is the teacher's favorite. All of us are irritated by these nerds for being so good in academics. But behind that nerdy face is still a normal person who goes through normal life issues. In today's episode join me, Ashlesh, and Rishabh where we have our dear friend Animesh as our guest where we talk about the struggles and problems he faces in his life as a Scholar.
