DHRUV BEHL
Dhruv founded autoX in 2006 with little clue of what lay ahead. Driven by a passion for anything on four wheels and a stubborn will to succeed, he moulded a team as pig-headed as him to create a medium that could adequately communicate the magnificence of the automobile to an unsuspecting audience. Today, autoX stands for independence, candidness, and objectivity – but, most of all, for heart & soul. And that’s one ingredient that has to come from within. Be warned, however, it is infectious!

Dhruv is a sucker for speed. Show him a pair of wheels, and the first thing he’ll do is find out how fast they can go. He studied mainstream journalism, but life had other plans for him. During his first job interview, he found himself going on-and-on about his love for cars, and so the interviewer decided that he would be the perfect bloke to write about them.

Aakash S Paul
As a child, I could never find space to put up posters of beautiful cars and motorcycles in my bedroom. So, as an adult, I decided to make a living out of spending time with them in person. Having been on both sides of the camera, I strive to display our emotions about automobiles in the best way possible. I also love building PCs and keeping up with the happenings in the world of technology.

Believing in little communication, I grew fond of sweet treats and sports (basketball, particularly) at a young age. It is at the mountains where I am the happiest. I have studied language & literature and worked as a content writer to hone my skills. As of now, I am enjoying exploring emerging technologies and trends that shape the automotive sector.
