𝗔𝗻 𝘂𝗽𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗺𝘆 𝗹𝗶𝗳𝗲 𝗮𝗳𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝟯 𝘆𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝗺𝗮𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘃𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗼: (And some unconventional wisdom for my younger self ) It's going to be a long story, if you're tied up on time- 𝗜𝗻 𝗮 𝗻𝘂𝘁𝘀𝗵𝗲𝗹𝗹: I decided not to join any IT Firm. Instead, I decided to work in the creative field where I led the creative execution of brands like Flipkart, Nykaa Man, Akudo and more. Later on, I got into Web3 and now, I work for a Silicon Valley web3 company called as Decentology, right from my home, here in Goa. My passion for fitness is still intact. I competed in my first bodybuilding show in Dec, 2021. I still try out new things every single day and live a life of gratitude. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆: (get a drink, maybe) I graduated from KIIT University in 2021 with a 9 CGPA. Looking back, I realize that the lessons I learnt away from the lecture halls were way more vital than the ones taught inside. This video (A day in my life at KIIT University), quite literally changed the course of my career. I got more and more interested in the creative field of filmmaking, design, VFX etc. During my 4th year at KIIT, like everybody else, I was preparing for the placements. But just before the placement season began, I got an offer from a Creative Digital Agency called Monk Entertainment (co-founded by the KZfaqr Ranveer Allahbadia aka BeerBiceps). I still sat for the interview by a few IT companies. And guess what, I did manage to the offers. But deep down, I was clear what I had to do. So now, I had to choose between IT and a Creative Field. For some context, I did enjoy coding and solving problems. By the end of 4th year, my team and I managed to publish 2 thesis papers about AI and Machine Learning in scientific conferences like ICICT. Overall, I did well in academic subjects like DSA, Dynamic Programming etc. But on the other hand, I was extremely passionate about making videos and using my creative gifts. Let there be any amount of work, it always felt like play to me. So, I decided to go ahead with Monk Entertainment. It was an industry so different. Almost everybody loved their job here. And I was no different. It was an immense amount of learning and realization. Within a span of 4 months, I was leading the visual aspect of brands like Flipkart, Nykaa Man and more. Worked with many public figures, led creative campaigns, made Ad Films and much more. It was like a playground where I could try my hands at everything that interests me. Monk Entertainment formed a solid foundation for me to build upon. As an Engineer turned creative, my interest in the Tech always remained. I was fascinated by this new emerging field of Web3 and Blockchain. I used to watch, read and research a lot about the new happenings in this field. Soon enough, I created an opportunity for myself to work with the largest web3 company in India - Polygon ($MATIC, if you know). About a month later, I received a full-time offer from another Silicon Valley web3 company called - Decentology. So, after 1 year and 7 months of working at Monk Entertainment, I decided to switch to Design-Tech (A merger of the two fields that interests me). I joined Decentology full-time as a Motion Designer in February 2022. Again, it has been an immense learning experience. I get to speak to such diverse people and work on things that are going to impact the lives of millions of people in the coming future. I still stay at my hometown in Goa and enjoy the US-based perks and compensation. I am grateful to my younger self for always trying out new things. Also, my passion for fitness is still intact. My 2-hour gym session every single day is always a highlight for the day. Infact, I competed in my first ever bodybuilding competition in Dec, 2021. I managed to place 6th, state level! Our society has laid out a well defined path. Most people never bother to look around and realize that there are countless other paths leading to a better fulfilled life. As Naval Ravikant says it, being curious is one of the highest superpowers one can have. Keep learning new things and dare to be different. All you need is the mentality of a warrior. Overcome obstacles and keep moving forward. Be unstoppable. And never forget to be grateful. Goodluck to everyone reading this! Regards, Priyanshu Sarmah

Hey Priyanshu,You just took me that era when I was a student my alma mater KIIT.From campus gully to hostel n many more things just sparked in my eyes now.Many kudos to for giving me such a nostalgic.All the best for your future.Keep uploading n involve in all international conference in KIiT.😊😊😊😊

I really miss that Gym....#ExKiitian

I broke that subscribe button at 8:21..dude the drop and editing perfect!!! keep it up!!

Appreciate the immense effort you took to make this video. Especially the campus tour part. Great job.

Vlogging game is on point mate. But something I would like to add is. NOTE : 70% students have somewhat life like this :- wake up minutes before classes, getting into classes with sleepy eyes contemplating how he could have slept earlier, somehow finishing classes least bothered about what profs teaching, meals tastes pathetic so thanks to swiggy, uber eats etc. Evening is mostly spent with ya girlfriends/friends( thanks to the lush greenery of mba campus ), completing ya next day assignments, pubg/cs/fifa/cod till 1, dozes off at 3. cycle repeats. 😂 -3rd year Kiit Mechanical Student.

That moment when you think its 300k instead 300 subs because of the narration. 300 kiitians maybe

Bro , your editing game is damn strong 🔥👌🏻 , choice of music , everything was perfect 👌🏻 .. keep making such vlogs

Grt bro ...you have nailed it with your editing keep up the good work

Dear Bhaiya.....it was really my good fortune that I got to read such an inspirational story..... It got me some tears because I have never been such a disciplined student who really wants to achieve something great.....I gave my JEE exam....I failed.....I decided to study super hard in KIIT and now i am in 2nd semester....and hardly I have done anything to improve my skills . I am doing my online classes as of now and will go to campus in 3rd semester. Truly speaking I feel clueless and hopeless...this vlog made me upset that i have done nothing to be proud of my younger version in the next 4 years....I know its not late but confused how and where should I start from..... This is all from my side..... I really don't know how I have written but i have tried my best to convey myself.... it is my humble request if you could tell me what things should i do on a daily basis to improve my level...

Nice work,glad to see blogger from our collage....#keep motivating

Hey buddy ...what a vlog..👌👌👌

im 100% sure if he had a quality dslr man he would be an amazing vlogger! i know how much time it took you to take those time lapse, hyper lapse etc! great job bro! keep going!

never in my four years of stay at KIIT have i seen such a disciplined KIITian! Kudos buoy(if your schedule is really this much organized)! especially a second year student publishing papers on ML is commendable! Wish i was this disciplined back then, it would have taken me to greater places :D Those roads, classrooms, hostel, mess food.. boy it just hit my refresh button down the memory lane.. One advice: mess ka khana kha k gym mat kar bhai, you will end up losing more than gaining! ;) love from ur supersenior (2011-2015 batch, CSE)

Keep it up bro👍 Editing is superb 🔥🔥🔥

Wow wow! Great vlog, man! Pretty good editing skills!🔥🔥

On your counseling day, you'll get to choose your branch according to your rank. There will be hundreds of people there and everybody will be called according to their rank. 0-100 may enter first followed by 101-200 and so on. If you rank below 3k, chances are you might get CSE, below 8k and you might get IT while electronics branches may stay up will 13k. After you've chosen your branch, you'll be taken to the bouquet hall where you'll have to fill up documents and then you're done.

The Production Quality Of Video Is Nice
