Winning games & some life battles too

Gamer Santanu Basu has come a long way. Defying his parents, travelling penniless and without a ticket, he took part in his 1st national level championship in 2007. Recovering from pancreatic cancer, the gamer-turned-entrepreneur is now steering his startup Lets Game Now into the Metaverse. He talks about his journey and what it takes to be a winner – both in the virtual and the real world – when odds are stacked against you.
