Rohit Panda

MBA and Chartered Accountant from the United Kingdom with more than eleven years in corporate; currently part of the executive leadership team in a leading MNC. During my tenure as a Financial Consultant in London, I got a chance to work with a leading Film Production House and was immediately fascinated by the art of storytelling. There, I got an opportunity to interact with Carl Austin who was working on the screenplay of Aishwarya Rai Bachchan starrer “Provoked”. I started working with him on weekends and was part of the project. From there the journey of my writing career began. In my spare time – Love reading, a little bit of stock trading and lots of people watching to understand their psychology including personality and social behaviour.
