A Brief History Of Ankit

Ankit was born on 8th of November, 1995 to a lovely family of Ms. Lalita Rathore and Mr. Mahadev Rathore. He would not mind birthday wishes from you and the best way to remember the date is to think about the day Demonetisation was announced in 2016. He is also blessed with two siblings, an elder sister by three years and a younger sister by three years. His parents truly planned it carefully!

He spent most of his childhood in a small town called Sanawad, around 100kms south of Indore, in Madhya Pradesh and never at that young age he thought of ever writing a book. He was really happy with all the Science-y stuff, but then in the last two years of schooling, some events left inside him a perennial itch to write and ever since he has been writing on and off. While all this inner turmoil could easily throw a person off-course, he did manage to secure a place in the renowned IIT Bombay and passed as a Computer Science Graduate in 2017.

After graduation, he has been working as a Software Engineer with Edgeverve Systems and residing in Bangalore since mid 2017. On weekdays, he may be writing in languages only machines could understand, but rest of the time, he continues to pour out stories or is involved in other creative fronts such as film-making and theatre. 'Ibaratein', an anthology of his poems, is the first of many stories he plans to share.

Lastly, he also loves collaboration in any kind of creative projects and loves to contribute in whatever capacity he can. One could get in touch here.
