    This dude reminds me of the lyrics from ZNMD:
    "Dilon Mein Tum Apni Betaabiyan Leke Chal Rahe Ho, Toh Zinda Ho Tum
    Nazar Mein Khwaabon Ki Bijliyan Leke Chal Rahe Ho, Toh Zinda Ho Tum...."
    He just seems like the happiest topper and he listens only to his heart. Such a person is bound to succeed. But again he will consider this success as a small part of his journey. After all for a free bird like him journey is what matters the most.

    It has always been that only the top notchers in CSE exam particularly the top tens are given the media-hype/coverage after their success. But infact, the top rankers have hardly ever amazed me, they just seem ordinary students who probably worked harder than the rest. Its always one or two among the lower rankers that come out as impressing ones, those who really seem to have that kind of calibre required for being a Civil Servant. This guy is also one amongst those.
