It`s a reminder that even an ordinary kid, a bit like myself, could be extraordinary
“The world of Harry Potter has been my escape and my solace ever since I read the first book all those years ago. It wasn`t just about magic wands and fantastical creatures for me. What truly captured me was Hogwarts. A school of witchcraft and wizardry? Sign me up! I devoured descriptions of the moving staircases, the delicious feasts in the Great Hall, and the cozy common rooms. It felt so real, a place I could almost imagine myself getting lost in,” recalls 28-year-old Jyoti Pendse.
