Indian Masterminds Stories

Life works in mysterious ways and it is fascinating to witness how paths that once got separated can reunite, bridging the distance that seemed too far to traverse. A recent post by IPS Archit Chandak (2018 batch) has made netizens dewy-eyed. Taking to X, Mr. Chandak shared a picture with Mr. Harsh, his former flatmate who was once a fellow aspirant like him. Despite giving the interview thrice, Harsh could not crack the UPSC CSE but found success in his unique way, inspiring countless others.

Describing his former flatmate as a person of exceptional dedication and grit who made significant sacrifices in pursuit of his UPSC dreams, Mr. Chandak wrote how Harsh found his big break at Trident after he failed in the UPSC exam. He revealed his friend’s name and designation as a testament to the fact that success is not just limited to cracking a particular exam or achieving a specific goal, but about finding fulfillment and happiness in whatever path one chooses to pursue! UPSC, indeed, is not the end of the world!
