I Don’t Want To Go Viral”: 18-Year-Old Samosa Seller Who Cracked NEET

A samosa seller by day, a medical aspirant by night, and now, a beacon of hope for millions – this is the story of Sunny Kumar, 18, who has scored a whopping 664 marks out of 720 in the medical entrance exam NEET UG.

After attending school in the morning and getting free by 2 pm, Sunny would take an hour to set up his roadside samosa stall in Noida Sector 12, where he would spend another five hours of the day working tirelessly. After a full day of hard work, he would return home only to continue his studies late into the night. This is what took Sunny to achieve his extraordinary feat.

When NDTV went to meet Sunny, he was in the middle of setting up his stall. “I haven’t been admitted to a college yet, but I want to get into a good college in future,” he told NDTV.
