Ludhiana: In a city where legacy often shapes ambition, some young achievers are stepping off the beaten path — not to rebel, but to redefine success on their own terms. Not in their parents' shoes — these toppers are building their own boots. Take Saanvi Chopra , who secured an All India Rank of 981 in the JEE.
Born into a family of doctors — a cardiologist father and an ophthalmologist mother — Saanvi chose not to wear the white coat. Instead, she's headed toward a future in engineering , a bold break from a proud medical lineage. Krishiv Gupta , ranked AIR 379, is the son of an advocate and an HR consultant.
Rather than follow the legal or corporate path, he dreams of studying Robotics at IIT Madras, building the next generation of intelligent machines. Then there's Vaibhav Jain , who clinched AIR 437. With a family rooted in textile manufacturing, he envisions a future far from the factory floor — one shaped by computer science at IIT Bombay, where algorithms, not looms, drive progress.
These young minds aren't rejecting tradition — they're redefining it. Armed with ambition, discipline and imagination, they are proving that sometimes, the most remarkable journeys begin when you take a turn off the family road..
