ABSTRACT

Sonali Bhagwati belongs to a highly educated and accomplished Gujarati family, her father being a former chief justice of India. Most of her uncles are well-known and accomplished professionals at national and international levels. She grew up in New Delhi with two other elder sisters, with their parents encouraging them to have careers while contributing to the national progress. In fact, Bhagwati has imbibed important values from her father such as honesty and integrity. Debating the selection of a course after high school, Bhagwati found economics rather boring and engineering a bit too hard. Therefore, even before she cleared her 12th board exams, she knew that she wanted to pursue only architecture.
