"I'm not dumb. I just have a command of thoroughly useless information" - BIll Watterson

"There is no cure for curiosity, so we encourage it instead"

"Kolkata ceased to be India's capital after 1911, but ask the quizzers, and they would still consider it to be the quizzing capital of the country. Quizzical captures all these curious souls and bring them under one roof to pit their wits against some of the best from all over the country. Nail biting tension, hushed tones, high stakes prize money and a star quiz master, there cannot be a better recipe for a quiz competition. One of the star attractions of Intaglio over the years, it has consistently commanded maximum participation with the grand finale grabbing the most eyeballs in the campus."

He has hosted quizzes at SP Jain, IIT Bombay, IMT Ghaziabad, NMIMS, NIT Durgapur, GE, IBM, TCS, L&T, etc. He is also no stranger to Quizzical, having thrice been a finalist at Intaglio in the last five years
