Hi, I am Gitesh Agarwal, 36 years old.
Its a job.. being the navigator of the ship, a big motley crowd has their rapt attention on you (or you need to ensure they do), while having to, at the same time thrill them, come across being dynamic.. with a voice that can caress their ears; touch their hearts and get their brain focussed.
At once, you have to be the super human, talented, versatile, have a good sense of humour and above all, move according to the pulse of the audience.
To add to it all, we have to promise attitude, a good vocabulary, good command over languages, ability to grasp quickly and a good memory...
