His passion for social upliftment has been widely recognized, especially for his hands-on involvement in education and community-building.
A graduate of the prestigious Indian Institute of Management (IIM) Ahmedabad, Milind started his professional journey as a software engineer at Infosys.

Avika and Milind's love story began in Hyderabad in 2020, where they met through mutual friends. Their connection was immediate, but Milind kept things strictly platonic for the first six months. Avika often humorously recalls that she was “married to him in [her] head” long before he realized his feelings.
Taking to Instagram, Avika shared the magical moment of their engagement, writing, "He asked… I smiled, I cried (in that order)… and screamed the easiest YES of my life!" Her emotional caption painted a picture of a love story filled with drama, balance, and mutual respect. She described Milind as calm and logical, while calling herself dramatic and filmy — opposites that seem to complement each other perfectly.
