Early life
Born in a business family from Mumbai, he was an able student. He graduated from Narsee Monjee College and then undertook his ACS and LLB studies. During his early college life, he came across Vedic Mathematics, a set of techniques designed by an ancient Indian spiritual guru. The techniques helped him calculate complex mathematical calculations with ease. Fascinated by these he started spreading them amongst his teachers and colleagues, but he met with resistance. To overcome this, he began conducting workshops and seminars, although they were not officially permitted, they proved to be popular.
Breakthrough
During one such training session, a senior journalist from India's reputed The Times of India[1] happened to witness how Dhaval could remember the entire calendar of 100 years in 5 minutes and how he could accurately remember the names and phone numbers of all the three hundred odd people present in the auditorium. The very next day, the newspaper carried an article branding him as a WHIZ KID. What followed was tremendous media and industry attention. He was then reckoned as a Mathematical Genius and a Wizard with numbers and memory.
Current Life
In the years to follow, Dhaval's techniques have been implemented by over 300,000 students in India, Kuwait, UAE, US, UK, Mauritius, Nepal, Oman and other countries. He is awarded as Young Achiever by Rotary International for his exceptional contribution to society.
He wrote four books:
- How to Top Exams and Enjoy Studies
- Vedic Mathematics Made Easy
- The Best of Sudoku
- He Swam with Sharks for an Ice-cream
