Hailing from a small village in Andhra Pradesh, Bolla was faced with adversities and overcame various challenges through his determination.
Born to poor parents who missed out on their education, Srikanth faced immense opposition and struggle early in life due to his special situation.
Srikanth had great dreams, and he managed to clear his Class 10 and 12 exams with flying colours. He also managed to be the first international blind student to study at the prestigious Massachusetts Institute of Technology, US.
A strong, trailblazing visionary, Srikanth believes vision has a lot more to do with than just having eyesight.
