Q. Which is the one discovery (in gadgets) without which you think life would have been impossible?
A. I think its GPS unit (Global Positioning System) without it not only a common man's life would have been impossible but also the same goes with army,navy and the air force.
Q. Where do you access your email — on phone or on the laptop?
A. On laptops and very rarely on phones.
Q. How important is it to be techno savvy in today's world?
A. I don't think it's very important to be techno savvy. I don't think if you are not techno savvy you are laidback. I don't believe in that concept. It is possible that a common man who does not know how to use a laptop but still he can get his things done. It is good if you are educated in terms of technology.
Q. There are a lot of complicated gadgets, and they are expensive too. What do you have to say about them?
A. Nothing. I don't have to say anything about it, they are expensive then reduce the price, if it's complicated then make it simpler and if it's too complicated then I don't care.
Q. Do you think the whopping prize tags are justified?
A. Keeping the common man in mind, I think the price tag for necessities should come down, where as in terms of luxuries the higher class can afford it.
Q. Gadgets have made us completely dependent on them, don't you think?
A. That is very true, we do tend to forget at times that we are the ones who have made those gadgets. They have made us mentally lazy, we can just surf to know a lot of things about the world. I believe a lot of field work and activity should be involved in everyone's life.
Q. Where do you usually buy your gadgets and gizmos from?
A. I go to Croma.
