SUNIL KAKKAD
Director, Sai Info Systems - Ahmedabad
Woman behind his success: Jyoti
Relation: Wife
“She does everything except business, and yet she is the reason behind my success in business,” says Sunil Kakkad of Ahmedabad-based Sai Info Systems. He had an arranged marriage with Jyoti. Today, he loves the fact that he can depend on her for everything on the home front.
“In her family, the male of the family does all the grocery shopping, etc. but in my case, she takes care of home entirely, so that I could concentrate on business. She does the grocery shopping, looks after the children and shops for my clothes,” smiles Sunil.
Jyoti is not only a pro at home activities, but also has a great sense of design. No wonder, Sunil gave a free hand to her while doing the interiors of their new home.
When Sai Info Systems was passing through the peak of business expansion, Sunil realized the importance of having a supportive wife like Jyoti. Sunil recollects the time when his children were young and Jyoti needed him the most while taking them to the doctor. “But I was not able to stand by her then and do as I was expected to, because business was expanding. So she did this on her own entirely,” reminisces Sunil.
Jyoti took over all those responsibilities, which traditionally should have been Sunil's – like that of getting household goods, grocery, etc. “I have also not been able to spend enough time with her even on weekends. 70% of the Sundays of mine were spent in office,” regrets Sunil.
What makes Jyoti too precious for Sunil, is the fact that she does all the work those extra work without ever complaining once. The Kakkad family is currently on the lookout for a new bungalow, and Jyoti has once again taken up the task of finding a good real estate agent. “My role will come only while finalizing the deal,” says Sunil adding, “She is the best thing to happen in my life.”
