In Conversation with Nikunj Gaur: On Rebuilding Life from Shattered Pieces

No words can describe his inspiration to live. No words can describe his courage and fight back spirit. He is a motivation for many around him. He is a man who was once left with nothing but shattered dreams and a dependent life. Today, he is back to the same perfect life he once lived.

Born and brought up in Kanpur, Nikunj is a working professional in Hyderabad who was living a normal life. But then he met with a freakish accident and was declared as permanently disabled by his doctors. Nikunj, however, refused to give up and accept his fate as conveyed by his doctors. It was his unwavering perseverance, his grit and willpower that allowed him to piece together his life and lead an independent life all over again.

This is his mantra of finding courage in oneself:

“To find courage in yourself, you first need to find something that you fear the most”

And this is what he believes the meaning of life is:

“Life is a gift, and each and every moment this gift brings along you should enjoy it.”
