@Gaurish: My parents took it very nicely. If it wasn't for them, I wouldn't have shifted from my first stable proper "IIM-grad" job of being a sales/brand manager guy at a reputed FMCG firm to a niche design consultancy.

From there taking this leap wasn't as tough as convincing myself that this was IT. Every single shot I nail makes me happy and though I "work" more than 16hrs a day, 7 days a week, and haven't seen a movie in nearly 2 months or just chilled out, I am happy and couldn't be happier.
The next 60 days are going to be even tougher, but they are just as rewarding!
