Rohan Albal

Co-founder, PowerDrift

---

Rohan Albal can be described as the Colonel Sanders of new age Indian motoring. He is a person who mounted on his bike and never really got off. With the acquired alias “TenHut” from his gaming career, he loves his Aprilia and hates long queues at McDonalds. He is the founder of a motor vlogging YouTube channel. ‘Those who don’t adapt fall behind, the key is to keep reinventing!’ This is what Mr. Albal feels. He is a person who has been in love with cars and bikes his entire life. It took a journey halfway around the world and ten years of his life for him to understand where his happiness lies. People have tagged him as an influencer but he still considers himself as a kid who is in awe of his cars and bikes. He loves driving so much that he says, “All I want to do in life is sit on a motorcycle and enjoy the cool wind into my face". This passion for wheels sowed the seeds of Powerdrift and now it has grown into a beautiful and a thriving tree.

Solicitation in the ocean inspires Saransh & shows how one can curl the whole space-time fabric by producing the amount of energy which affects everyone, not observed. The separation of you & me with “I” is remarkable. Mr. Sharma is not just an accomplished writer but also a multitasker. He has been working on multiple researches in mathematics and computer science & coding for Open Source. He has been writing a book about Blockchain & AI. He is a founder of ‘Upscale’, a technology firm in 2013 & has worked with the Ministry of Defence & Fortis Hospitals. He believes in producing work which is green & quiet but with a great impact over general health and well-being. It isn’t math, linear-algebra, Private key infrastructure or galios theory that made him who he is right now, it is the rigor & the awareness. Saransh wants to produce work which is green & quiet but with broad impact over the general health & well being with returns distributed over a spread, unlike instant gratification.
