In today’s episode of Figuring Out, Raj talks with IAS Abhishek Singh, IAS, Actor & Social Entrepreneur . He has acted in the famous Netflix series - Delhi Crime in the role of an officer and has been featured in songs with B Praak & Badshah. He comes from Allahabad and has grown up wanting to become an IAS officer. 

Singh shares how his upbringing has helped him create a more organised and disciplined work culture around him and suggests ways to do so for others. He elucidates why he never just wanted to limit himself to being a public servant and explains how he approaches the negative reactions of people towards his acting career. 

IAS Abhishek shares his experience of working under the governance of Prime Minister Modi and gives an unfiltered view on how the country has grown differently under 2 different governments. 

IAS Abhishek sheds light on the fact that India has never believed in dominance but in leadership and how that has increased the opportunities for Indians to create a life for themselves.
