IIT Baba Girlfriend
Abhey Singh said, "Yes, I had a girlfriend. I had only 1 girlfriend. We were in a relationship for 4 years. She was a junior. When she was doing her master's, I came back to IIT again. We broke because of the film that was made. I stopped feeling from inside. It was like I was living like a robot. You don't know what's going on. It was a very good relationship. She was understanding. I am not in touch with her anymore. She is now married. I chose my own path, she chose hers."
On being asked if she was his last girlfriend, IIT Baba said, "No no, I did many things after that. There's a time came when I left everything even photography and decide to live a simple life and dont do anything."
"When I was in Dharamshala, I met a girl online. It synced. She came to meet me. That's what different times. I only used to watch moons with her and do nothing. I used to listen to the songs of Gulzaar. I made her listen to those songs as well. Then, she got admission abroad, maybe in England. Our relationship was not serious. I was not even stable. She shared an incident of rape with me. Then, it hit me. I used to think about this every day. I called a helpline number to ask how to talk to such people," added IIT Baba.
Who is Abhey Singh aka IIT Baba?
In an interview, Abhey Singh was asked about his journey from IIT to being a Sadhu. He said, "I come from a very small town of Jajjar (a town in Haryana). I did not even know about IIT till Class 12. Someone came in our school and informed us about IIT, that's how I came to know about the Indian Institute of Technology."
"I took a drop for 1 year and went to Delhi to study in coaching. Thereafter, I cracked IIT as my mind was sharp. I got AIR 731. I did IIT thinking that my parents won't reject going away from home if the college is big. Going by the rank I got at IIT, I thought aerospace engineering will be better. I did not think about placements or any other thing...Eventually, I learned English there as well."
"I got exposure in Mumbai and then I came to know that there are other things in life as well. For example, there was a humanities department there. I started taking an interest in philosophy, postmodernism, and epistemology (the study of knowledge). I have also directed plays, written poems, etc during my stint at the IIT."
"After IIT I started thinking now what to do after it? The goal of IIT was already achieved. To get the answer to this question I was studying philosophy. I used to get into arguments with teachers asking them to tell me things which I can use in my life..."
"Thereafter, I also started teaching in coaching since I was from IIT. It was the most easy job for me.
