Along the way Rahul Sharma met Asin, reportedly through Akshay Kumar and Twinkle Khanna, both brand ambassadors of Micromax.
In 2013, Rahul Sharma and Asin were seen in public for the first time, and reportedly fell out a year later, before coming together again to cement their relationship.
Staying rooted to basics seems to be Rahul Sharma's secret recipe. Micromax does not do market surveys or focus groups. To understand what people want, Rahul Sharma still works as a salesman at a few select outlets, once a while.
