“I am already receiving queries on driving from women and parents of young girls who wish to provide exposure to motorsports,” she added.

Aditi is Mrs India Singapore 2015, founder of Mrs India UK, a pageant coach, and has judged many a fashion shows. She is currently working at the SBM Bank. When asked how did motorcar sports happen, she said, “I took it as a challenge and liking for the sport. Also, something like this was not very much existing earlier for women. I felt I could be one more source to promote motorsport and encourage more women considering my main aim even with pageants.”

Well, she praised her husband, Prashant Gupta, who helps her maintain a balance between the racetrack, the bank, and her home. She said, “The credit undoubtedly goes to my husband and my daughter who is eight, and is loving every bit of my journey and keeps encouraging me to go for it.”  “My son is just a year old and is settling down with the fact that when I am traveling, dad would be there for him as always,” Aditi added.
