Vishal Sikka's may be a formidable name in the global technology segment, but he isn't your average geek who has time only for technology labs and technical journals.
On his first day as Infosys managing director and chief executive, Sikka quotes Rabindranath Tagore in describing himself as a "servant leader"; calls himself a Hindi movie buff (till recently, a song from a Bollywood blockbuster was on his Twitter feed); and says he wants to write regularly, as it has a "calming influence" on him (his blog, Timelessness, deals with his childhood memories, Diwali in Delhi, etc).
