There's no denying how demanding it is to achieve the CA charter. What's  even more demanding is the sheer amount of hard work it took to achieve  the coveted 2 alphabets prefixing your name with an All India Rank and  that too in the first attempt. Today is one such person who achieved  both of the feats.

Rarely is the case when our guest takes over the ruins that we make and  makes our day by speaking some genius stuff. This episode was one such  case. Swapnil brought with himself this level of humbleness for all the  achievements that he'd carried, as much as we have I'm sure you'd learn  some valuable lessons too. Hope y'all enjoy!
