MEET THETHE WORLDWORLD OF ARBITARBIT CHAUDHURY

Prof LR

Professor Lingampally Rangareddy? Forget Voldemort, this dude’s the Thanos of tough! Stricter than a ruler, he knows every number-crunching tool under the sun, from fancy-pants Factor Analysis to that six-sigma mumbo jumbo. And guess what? He expects you to wield them like lightsabers against every management problem that twitches.

Antique

Ankit “Antique” Jain, the undisputed king of the study jungle. This dude’s got it all: brains sharper than a laser pointer, focus tighter than a mama bear’s hug, and PR skills smoother than a politician’s promises. Kotler chapters? Piece of cake. Fortune 500 profits? Tip of his fingers. CEO face recognition? Dude knows ’em all like his own family (except they probably pay their bills on time). Dream job? McKinsey, baby, McKinsey.

TekNik

Nikhil Tekade, closer to Arbit than his phone to its charger – college roomies back in engineer-land. Dude could code circles around anyone, knew IT like the back of his hand, but grades? Those were like dragons – rare and fire-breathing. Hence the nickname TekNik – brains were techie fireworks, grades were damp squibs. First tech company on campus? Swooped him up faster than free pizza.

Arbit

Arpit Choudhury, dude’s your average second-year MBA warrior at a Ivy-league B-school. His life’s basically a non-stop, caffeine-fueled quest to juggle tests, assignments, presentations, competitions, and case studies (more like case-struggles, amirite?). Oh, and there’s the mandatory dose of internet browsing, friend-fueled gossip sessions, and strategic ctrl+C, ctrl+V action. Food, sleep, and buddies? Nah, those are just side quests in the epic grind.

Maya

Maya and Arbit, two peas in a pod since engineerin’ school, had a bond tighter than a double knot. Now, Arbit, smitten from the start, couldn’t confess his feelings for beans. But love works in mysterious ways, and Maya caught the same bug! One surprise proposal later, they were inseparable.

Johnty Python

Matheswaran Chandrakutanand Piraswami, better known among friends as Johnty Python, the data-wrangling wizard with a name longer than a server log, is Teknik’s partner in deciphering Tech Codies’ corporate mysteries. A true-blue IIT-nerdian, his brain could build algorithms smoother than a buttered naan, but alas, the fickle US visa gods weren’t impressed by his multisyllabic monicker.

Kahar Barpakar

Dude, Kahar Barpakar? His name screams “control freak” louder than a toddler with a megaphone. This guy runs his projects like a drill sergeant, obsessed with customers, details, budgets tighter than a mummy’s wrap, and deadlines that’d make Einstein cry. Forget empathy, teamwork, or feelings – dude’s EQ is flatter than a pancake.
