Happiest when left with paper, scissors, glue and glitters as a kid, 26-year-old Mridula Gupta was all of 15 when she first modified a set of Monopoly for a friend. She got a store-bought Monopoly game, pasted photographs of herself and her friend, renamed the properties, changed the station names to locations of their school picnic, and voila, the familiar game had a new, more intimate avatar. Eleven years later, including a stint as an equity research analyst, the Breach Candy resident is now back to customising board games, puzzles and card games, with much more than just paper, scissors, glue and glitters, through her lockdown venture Games Knight.
