Vedant Devkate, who lives in Nagpur, Maharashtra, sometimes gets a chance to browse Instagram on his mom's old laptop. Both mom and dad are professors in an engineering college in Nagpur and strict about studies. He did not give Vedanta a laptop and even a smartphone was rarely used. But one day , Vedant saw a link to a website development contest on Instagram. During the lockdown, Vedant watched heaps of tutorials on software development , coding , Python, etc. on mom's old , slow laptop . He jumped into that contest.

The contest was run by an ad agency in New Jersey, USA. Vedanta wrote 2066 lines of code for it in two days and sent it to the company. A few days later Vedanta received a mail from the company , his project was selected from a thousand entries and the company offered him a job - the package was 33 lakh rupees per annum! Vedanta told this to the school teachers. He made sure that the company and its offer were genuine. The problem was that Vedanta was still studying in the 10th standard and was only 15 years old! When the company came to know about this, it asked Vedanta to complete his studies and said that after that the doors of the company are open for him!

Now the professor of Vedanta parents are thinking of buying a new laptop for him.
