About Me

A passionate 12 year old Samskrtham student (from Samskrita Bharati), I combined my passion for coding into creating this website to make Samskrtham learning fun. Every kid should be excited to learn this ancient language. Samskrtham is relevant today too, learning it is fun too. I also love to play any sport, especially cricket. In my freetime, I love to build with electronics, lego, and cardboard. My dream is to promote Samskrtham as the most spoken language in the world. I dedicate this website to all my Samskrtham teachers and my parents.
