I grew up watching cartoons, art and culture shows on DD. I was also exposed to French TV since I studied in Switzerland. In our childhood, we didn't have channels like National Geographic etc, but kids today are lucky to have such options. When I'm not shooting, I turn on the news or sports. I'm a big football fan and end up recording the matches that I miss. These days I'm hooked on to cricket. When I'm not cheering for India from the stands, I'm rooting for them from my living room.
