A 26-year-old Indian techie from Bengaluru, working at IBM in California, has received a US O-1 visa after facing 3 H-1B rejections. Tanush Sharanarthi shared that his approval came due to his “extraordinary ability” in artificial intelligence. He said he focused on hard work instead of luck, spending late nights building products, publishing research, and contributing to his field. Sharanarthi expressed gratitude to his family, mentors, colleagues, and IBM for their support. The O-1 visa is given to individuals with exceptional talent in fields like science, arts, business, or sports, without an annual lottery cap. (PC: NDTV)
