Either way, it appears that law runs in the veins in that family!
After all, Priya only deals with top guns like Jones Day, AZB, Gibson Dunn, Indigo and Rakesh Jhunjhunwala!
Good on the Mehra’s to pick a capable boy without any form of backing to take the legacy forward.
Having seen Nakul in action first hand, I thought of him as an Amarchand or JB Dadachanji Alumnus.
Thanks for sharing.

My first thought is that he not from an NLU but the traditional DU background. DU is still #1 among TLCs and has a better brand value than a lot of NLUs, but with NLSIU's 3 year LLB programme such bright talents will now prefer NLSIU to DU.
Could someone in the know tell me more about it? How and where did he start from? Was it at chambers, in-house or a consultancy/ law firm?
Is Nakul a first generation lawyer? Did he walk into the field well padded and backed, by “well-wishers”?
R - please don’t let an innocuous query like this trigger you. Moderate lousy responses instead.
