He's no black-belter, though a big fan of Bruce Lee.
Like the rest of 1956-borners, he too idolized the karate king.
The year: 1973. Enter The Dragon was the rage in those days of single-screen culture.
Posing with Karate stick was an adrenalin-pumping chore. You don't have to be a karate kid to handle one to pose for photo opportunity. Karate sticks are known as Nunchucks, a traditional Okinawan weapon consisting of two sticks connected at one end with a short chain or cord/rope.
Our man under the radar for the next episode of ON THE OTHER SIDE blog series coming soon caught hold of one nunchucks while in college.
He penned his maiden poem in Hindi in class 4 and continued to pour his heart out both in Hindi and English as he grew.
In class 8, he switched to English medium after spending a few months and invested in books in Hindi when he realized he could not pursue his chosen engineering career if he were to continue his dalliance with his mother tongue: Hindi.
Pulp fiction greats such as James Hadley Chase, Irving Wallace, and Harold Wilson kept him thrall in his impressionable youthful era.
Guess who this transporter is?
COMING SOON the second personality in the new "ON THE OTHER SIDE" series.
Watch out
MEANWHILE, check out the inaugural ON THE OTHER SIDE series personality.
