Hello,

As the sun sets on another busy week, I want to share with you an inspiring story that embodies resilience and determination. It's the story of Murali Pandian, who transitioned from being a service advisor at Hyundai Motors to becoming an automotive designer at KIA Motors.

Murali, like many of us, found himself at a crossroads after completing his engineering degree. With a dream of working in the automotive industry as a designer, he accepted a role as a service advisor. He assisted customers with vehicle maintenance. There was no job too small for him; he worked with passion and dedication, regardless.

Life took him on a detour, leading him to manage his family property in Kodaikanal, Tamil Nadu, and then into the real estate business. But the spark to design, to create, was always alive within him.

A major leap came when he applied to Mantra Academy, enrolling in our rigorous 9-month training course. During this time, Murali faced numerous challenges. Health issues posed a hurdle, but the biggest test came when his mother was hospitalized. Balancing his family responsibilities and commitment to automotive design was a tough juggling act. But Murali thrived.

He dedicated himself to his training, took his tests seriously, and managed his time effectively, demonstrating resilience.His dedication and commitment to work paid off when he was offered a position as an automotive designer at KIA Motors. This was the same parent company where he worked as a service advisor.

Murali’s story is a testament to perseverance. No matter where you start or what challenges you face along the way, with dedication and relentless spirit, you can reach your goals.

As you move forward on your journey, remember Murali’s story. Let it inspire you to persevere through your challenges, work hard, and never lose sight of your dreams.

What's Brewing at Mantra?

Last week at Mantra Academy, something truly extraordinary happened. Three determined teams, christened Apex21, CYBORG-X11, and UV Trek-88, stood before Ultraviolette Automotive's design connoisseurs, ready to reveal their revolutionary visions for the future of two-wheelers.

Every presentation was a symphony of ingenuity. The designs echoed with a unique perspective, a singular dream born from inspiration and perspiration, and reflected the raw energy of imagination, innovation, and tireless dedication that got them to this point.

Apex21's design echoes a harmonious fusion of aesthetics and aerodynamics, with a vision rooted in speed. In contrast, CYBORG-X11 envisions man and machine living together. In their design, a two-wheeler responds intuitively to rider needs. Not to be outdone, UV TREK-88 presented a design narrative based on environmental responsibility. It was the epitome of sustainability without sacrificing style or performance.

One of these visionary designs struck a chord with Ultraviolette's discerning design team, resonating with the potential to change the way we think about two-wheelers. Now, the ultimate honor awaits you with one of them. We're handpicking one to go from sketch to reality, sculpted as a 1:1 clay model. This real-world manifestation will show perseverance and innovation.

Watch the future of automotive design unfold as mantra's creative engines keep running.

Wishing you a productive week. Keep pushing forward!
