Sharma is also known for India’s biggest and most successful sporting revolution – the Pro Kabaddi League. In his address, he spoke about his passion for tennis.According to Sharma ‘Everything in Life’ is connected’; he advised the students to have a sound knowledge of their surroundings. They should be ‘all rounder’. It is imperative to broaden one’s horizon . Inculcating diverse skills is good as versatility has its own charm. While speaking of success – he told the audience that ‘money’ does not define success which in fact is too abstract a phenomenon to be defined and qualified, but we know when it happens. A very distinct trait of a successful person, as he shared, is the ability to give oneself up to the cause on hand. Advising the students to keep negativity at bay, he asked them to have positive attitude with radiant personality which can always be developed. He also underlined the importance of team-spirit. A volley of questions was showered on him which he happily answered.
