Why mathematics? Hardy has an elaborate answer here .
I am interested in research, entrepreneurial ventures, and teaching.
Research – I am mostly interested in geometric group theory and low dimensional topology. Recently, I have been dabbling with geometric deep learning.
Teaching – I engage with school and university students via Olympiad programs and Research Projects. I am also curious about teaching and identifying talent in rural India (see more).
Entrepreneurial Venture – I love creating new businesses and working with other enterprises. We regularly work with small businesses (see more) as an incubator. As of 2025, I am attached with two enterprises – Cheenta Academy, Paninieight Software Systems.
Apart from mathematics, I am also interested in writing (in Bengali), photo/videography and road trips. My other blog contains some of those reflections.
