I wasn’t planning to write about Cambridge any time soon till I saw the promos of the new Amitabh Bacchan and Abhishek Bacchan’s Bollywood movie ‘Paa’.

Vishal Gondal’s success formula has been games, games and only games. Addicted to games from the age of 13, Vishal floated his own company and became a CEO at the age of 16!
