Meet real-life Mowgli Ratna Singh, who gave up Oxford Law to heed the call of the wild
1
When Ratna Singh had said, “be back in a year or two,” to her brother, it lacked conviction. She was anxious, after all, when the prospect of spending her life in the wilderness dangled itself in front of her; because the other prospect was equally enticing, albeit not half as invigorating – studying law at the prestigious Oxford Brooks University. However, she owed it to the little girl in her – the notorious mowgli, who grew up amidst nature’s wonders coddling creatures great and small, fancying a life where she could do this for a living – to at least give the opportunity a real shot. So, she swung by the branches, away from the confines of certainty, and into the endless possibilities of nature’s secret garden.
