As one of the top legal minds in the country can you share a moment in your career that you consider a true highlight or milestone?
I recollect being a junior counsel in the Bombay High Court in a matter in which I was led by Navroz Seervai. On the other side was late Ghulam Vahanavati, one of the top senior counsel in the Bombay High Court. I sought an adjournment as Navroz was on his feet in another Court. The Judge however asked me to go on with the matter and admitted the petition after hearing Ghulam and me. Was important that I was fully prepared and able to make my submissions without getting too flustered. Also, was great to find that Judges like Justice Ajit Shah were most accommodating and encouraging to juniors.
