During the day, Sourabh is the quintessential Corporate creature, having worked with some of the largest Pharmaceutical giants for more than two decades. At other times he turns into the archeologist and historian, he always wanted to be. An avid quizzer and global traveler, this 46 years old has ventured into some of the most inaccessible places on earth, many a times with his astronomical telescope and field notes. Having lived in 18 cities, the whole world is his home, and Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam (The whole world is my home) is his mantra. As for his DNA, that’s the same as everyone else, ever since Modern Humans, Homo sapiens, emerged 300000 years ago in Africa.
He acquired an incurable disease in childhood, which the doctors termed as ‘Curiosity’. That made him dig deeper and ask germinal questions about human beings and their past, present and future on Earth and in the Universe.
He continues to weave stories and provoke thoughts through his journeys into the gut of history. When it gets too heavy, he switches to light-hearted short stories from the world and ‘live’ people around him, as well as the ‘ghosts’ from the past.
One day, Sourabh hopes to solve the conundrum, whether ‘Existence’ is indeed a Trillion-episode, intergalactic Matrix-like reality game show on prime-time, which the producer can take off-air, as we speak.
