Arjun Maini said that he would never have an X-Box in his den.
F2 race driver Arjun Maini says his den is a shrine to his two biggest loves: racing and video games.
My den “The den in my house in Bengaluru is a special space for me; it is where I spend most of my time when I’m home. My den has been a part of the house since we moved in here a few years ago.”
Games people play “One look at my den and you’d know of my love for gaming. Whenever I get free time, which is not very often these days, I play games. In the off-season especially, the gaming console gets well used. Other than gaming, I’m a fan of watching movies and TV shows. Often, my friends and I watch something late into the night.”
What I would never have “I would never have an X-Box. It’s only PlayStation in my den.”

Sign on the door “I would put a sign that says ‘Lazy Cave’ because that’s what I call the room. And a second sign saying, ‘No greasy hands on electronics’. For some reason, people love eating chips and touching all the remotes with the same hand. I hate that.”
Furniture in my den “I mainly have comfortable sofas and a bed where I lie and watch movies and TV shows. There is also a desk with a personal computer for gaming. It’s also connected to my console simulator. Being a racer, it’s vital for me to practice on one, and get to know the circuits better.”

Posters “I have posters of Ayrton Senna and Michael Schumacher up on the walls. I’m now planning to add one of my favourite bands, Queen.”

“My dog spends the most time with me here. Three of my friends — Tarush, Ricky and Aditya — are also there whenever we are all in the same city. Everybody loves the Lazy Cave. My brother Kush also spends a lot of time here whenever we get the chance. It’s a great place for all of us to hang out and bond.”
