Sreevishnu, a younger sibling studying
in Grade 12 at Isha Vidhya Coimbatore,
says he felt secure to have his elder
brother in the same school. “It was
good to study with my brother in the
same school, his reassuring presence
was a constant comfort,” Sreevishnu said.
Prithvi, the elder sibling, says they
often dozed off on each other's shoulders
on the bus rides from school.
The boys were so similar that their
teachers couldn't tell the difference
between Prithvi and Sreevishnu – not
just in appearance but also in their
interactions with teachers and peers.
Their parents sent both children to the
same school because they liked the
discipline the school instilled in their
first kid and wanted the same for their
second one.
Besides being good in studies, both
brothers won numerous prizes in art,
writing, etc., and they were school
pupil leaders too.
While Sreevishnu is still considering
various career options, Prithvi has
completed his B.Sc in biotechnology
from Sri Krishna College and will now
pursue his Master's degree.
