Pichai describes himself as a news junkie who starts every day with an omelette, a cup of tea and a print copy of the Wall Street Journal.
Back in India, where newspapers are omnipresent but expensive, he had to wait his turn until his grandfather and father had read the paper, though he did learn to negotiate for the cricket pages.
He lives with his wife Anjali, whom he met at college, and their daughter, Kavya, and son, Kiran.
He is familiar with the screen-time negotiation that goes on in most family homes, and used to restrict their time, but is now not so sure. All of us are more comfortable when our kids read books, he says, but if they read on a Kindle, does that count? And what if the YouTube videos they watch are educational?
His opinion is that more women must come forward and take responsibilities in all the sectors. His opinion that they can manage the show and sometimes excellent also.
