My hobbies include photography and quizzing. Since my childhood I have joined above 60 quizzes till date, and had the taste of both win and defeat. Quizzing is not always about winning, it is somewhat learning from the other people what you don't know. While I was pursuing my graduation, we formed a quiz group named "Victorina Quiz". I started conducting quizzes along with the group members since then. In 2013, with some like minded people we formed "Jorhat Quiz Forum". We conducted three mega quiz festivals in the banner of Jorhat Quiz Forum in 2013, 2018 and 2020 (online). The Sci-Biz-Tech quiz of Jorhat Quiz Festival 2018 and 2020, Pragjyotish College Quiz 2017, Independence Day Quiz at IASST 2018 are a few quizzes I have already conducted.
My another hobby photography was started in 2012. That year I bought a point and shot camera Canon SX 50HS. It has a high zoom of 50x. I started with capturing the butterflies from our home garden, and gradually tried to frame more stories in an image. I bought my first DSLR Nikon D5600 in 2019, and now continuing my journey with this. I am a Lifetime Member of Photography Club of Assam (PCA). I have exhibited my images in several photo exhibitions and participated national and international photography salons representing PCA.

In my leisure time I love to play badminton, table tennis, carrom, outdoor games like football and cricket.
