The Shark of Wall Street

Cairo & The Pyramids

Under the shadow of the Sphinx. The first imprint of a world much older and larger than a balance sheet. A curiosity born in ancient dust.

Jhansi, Nasik, Agra, Kannur

Childhood stretched across holy cities and crowded trains. Temples, holy rivers, incense, and chaos. Learning to read the noise before learning to read the markets.

Engineering

Boys Hostel in Allahabad, India. Not a "rock club," but a room full of cassette tapes, magazines of all sorts, and an obsession with cinema, quizzing and messing with all sorts of ideas and inspirations. First love, romance, bad decisions, and arguments about the future.

What makes a Shark?

It has no bones, only cartilage.

This allows it to turn instantly when the current shifts. It senses blood (risk) in the water before others see it. And most importantly: it must keep moving to breathe.

This is the mindset required to survive modern macro regimes.

Non-Fiction / Memoir

"Shantaram" meets "The Big Short"

A visceral, sensory journey that de-sanitizes the "finance bro" narrative. Connecting the dust of Indian classrooms to the sterile screens of Wall Street.

Film / Series

"Slumdog Millionaire" meets "Moneyball"

High-contrast visuals: The neon of rock clubs vs. the algorithmic coldness of trading. A character study of an outsider building a machine to beat the insiders.
