He wanted to own a website named coolhindustan.com for which he needed sponsership because he didn't had enough money to host it so he approached several Indian companies but none of theme were intrested in his project considering him as a minor child. Atlast his project was sponsored by an US company named 'Network Solutions' for 1 year.
After this successful project he got his very first job offer as freelancer from 'Network Solutions' but he rejected this offer because he wanted to start his own company.
