CS Prof. @ IISc Bangalore.
Past: Georgia Tech, IIT Kharagpur
Over the past seven years, I have mentored around 40 UG interns, and 20-25 of them joined PhD programs at top universities around the world.
With curious and bright students, learning and enthusiasm flow both ways.

Remember Hermione in Prisoner of Azkaban?
She wanted to attend all her classes—Care of Magical Creatures, Arithmancy, Muggle Studies … but schedules overlapped. Her secret weapon? The time-turner. ⏳
For us mere muggles, we dn’t have time-turners. 1/n

👉 Minimum Spanning Tree (MST).
In Swades, SRK faced the challenge of connecting all village homes to the power plant at min cost. Borůvka solved the same for electrification of Moravia in 1926 —the first MST algorithm.

The challenge of generating poetry in Varnavrutta (syllable-based metres) gave rise to the discovery of binary numbers.
The exploration of Mātrāvṛtta led to the ideas of recursion & DP.

This semester, I’m co-teaching Design and Analysis of Algorithms (DAA) at IISc — and bringing the fun to YouTube with my channel "Algo-rindam" 🎥
Think Bollywood, cricket, and algorithms all in the same lecture.

They say, “It takes a village to raise a child.”
Turns out, apart from a coffee plantation and a steady supply of free food (both for brain and brawn), you also need a team to complete a PhD.
