Disability and My Identity | Sajan Sachdeva | TEDxVIPS
Inspiring. Athlete. Perspective-Changer. In his inspiring talk, Sajan talks about his journey of getting half his body burnt but overcoming this obstacle by doing things differently and keeping his head high. Sajan Sachdeva is a man who has personified the phrase “every dark cloud has a silver lining” through his life. Sajan lost his legs to a terrifying electricity shock and half of his body was burned. But that didn’t stop the young man. In a case where any other human would have remained in the trauma, Mr. Sachdeva decided that he won’t leave his life to fate. He took the high road and eventually conquered a 21km marathon in under 3 hours. His courage, tenacity and positive attitude towards life has left us astounded. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

Thank you so much, Prof. It wouldn’t have happened without the strong support that I received from IIM Bangalore & amazing faculty like yourself :)
I've had a personal version of this Ted talk from Sajan himself... We had just joined this company together and we had returned from our joining party. 28th Dec 2016 at 1 am, I was a changed person after meeting Sajan. This Rocky Balboa quote and Bob Marley's dedicated work, we discussed this all. Thanks for being an inspiration mere Chhote veer.

It’s amazing how you remember the time as well. Thanks a lot for being there veere. :)
Sajan, I remember when you had an accident at early childhood days.Arun (My brother) was very upset including our family but now after watching this I’m feeling so proud how you have changed what was seen as your weakness into your strength. An inspirational story 🙏🏼

Wow! This means so much to me, Navi. Honestly, we all were kids. It’s only in retrospect I can understand & appreciate how maturely those 9/10 year olds acted & supported their fellow. I remember Arun being a great support & a helping hand on those stairs. It wouldn’t have been without a great support system.

Really couldn’t have happened without especially your support, bhai. Wish I could reciprocate even an iota of what you have done for me.)
