This FPM comes from the Cow Belt of which he is proud.A Chemical Engineer, he always goes for neither the big nor for the bigger but only for the "biggest".He was a total failure in MIRC, a field he desperately tried his best to leave his mark on.Anurag started the Beedi culture in IIMB.

He is known all over for his passion for "4 by 1" printouts. This is one person who goes to Pubs and comes back "Tense". He is an advisor and counselor for heart broken souls (which abound in the campus), biggest beneficiary being his neighbors. 

His favorite character is Rhett Butler with whom he completely agrees in“With enough courage, you can do without a reputation.”(He is also the honorary chief of the elite group of MCPs on campus.)

One batch too early, poor guy’s plans to ‘gainfully’ spend the Infosys Scholarship were shattered when it was decided that the schol will go the new batch.He made efforts on his own to make up for the Infy loss by taking courses in ‘Finance’ to be able to make enough money. 

You can never predict when will his hi-fi music system go on as it is always on! And not to mention the high-power-dramas once he is in high spirits which he eternally seems to be in.The batch realized that they had an In-house DJ in Anurag.His DJing skills came to the fore in the summers which Mr Jain would recollect as A Summer of Lost Opportunities in terms of ‘meaningful overnight relationships’ due to his moral inhibitions. He is known to offer biscuits and headache balm to ‘bedridden’ people. The ultimate ‘gentleman’?? Nah.

In spite of all this, he has done some serious work. He got together a group of six and launched a free management consulting service on the Internet:http://unix2.iimb.ernet.in/~ajain/consult.html (*Edit: New URL is http://www.anuragjain.com/consult.html *)Visit this site for all your problems, from management to personal problems.He is very eco-friendly, what with more plants than text books in his room. The remaining space in his room is occupied by his laptop, a couple of music systems, his camera and rows and rows of empty liquor bottles. 

He is an avid photographer, walking around campus with his Pentax in tow, busy clicking photographs of his friends and Mother Nature. He takes great pride in his sophisticated paraphernalia and his mastery of the same. However, for all his photographic skills, he still hasn't figured out when to load a roll in his camera - before or after clicking!

A budding multimillionaire, he has keen interest in starting his own business, preferably a dot com. He just loves traveling, outdoors activities and in the next 2 years, he plans to climb the Everest.

Wish you all the best, Fellow
