Biography

Born in India, Anubhav spent most of his early years in the capital city of New Delhi and studied at St. Columba's School.^[1][2] He created the concept for Carve Your Destiny in 2007, at the age of 21, while pursuing his studies at a university in New Delhi. The project was originally conceived as a possible entry to an international inter-university competition. However, it was rejected at the university as the implementation of the idea was not considered feasible.^[3] After the early disappointment, he then decided to pursue the film independently although he was initially doubted due to his young age, lack of relevant contacts and prior filmmaking experience.^[4][5] Anubhav has stated in many interviews that he faced a large number of rejections from people he approached for the film.^[6][7][8] In a BBC Radio interview in March 2010, he stated that he had conducted 11 interviews but faced 140 rejections.^[9] He has currently moved to the United Kingdom to interview international achievers.^{[10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21] [22][23][24]}
