Earlier this year, the 17-year-old bagged the Asian Under-21 Snooker Championship in Iran by 5-2 in the final. He displayed top skills at IBSF Snooker World Championship 2022 where he orchestrated a surprising comeback in the final.
The young player is only the third snooker player from a South Asian nation to bag the international amateur world title. In his glittering past, he already won national U17, U18 and U19 titles, and ended up as runner-up in the U21 championship.
