Riti Agrawal
The walking definition of 10 tabs open in the background, I enjoy multitasking as much as I enjoy sitting in a corner reading my latest crime find with a nimbu soda on standby, which is exactly where you'll find me most days. Headstrong and bubbly don't always go hand in hand, but if there ever was a lovechild of the two, you're looking right at her.
