Desi SoPs for masters in US should be a literary genre
"I have a lifelong passion for mathematics, especially number theory, which motivated me to pursue mechanical engineering."
"My 2 month internship at <Fortune 500 company> led to a holistic transformation of processes, leading to a 72% increase in employee morale."
"I intend to return to India after my masters degree and use my paradigm altering knowledge gained at your temple of learning, to solve global hunger and world peace via blockchain."
"As a toddler, I keenly observed the dewdrops forming on green chlorophyll laden leaves. My infantile mind was piqued. This motivated my passion for VLSI design."
"In my sophomore year, my passion for entrepreneurship and technology drew me to a TedX organizing committee."
"I am inspired by my father and Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam who said - climb every mountain, ford every stream, follow every rainbow, till you find your dream."
"Inspired by Rosa Parks and Martin Luther King Jr, I campaigned against caste-based reservations in India."
"While Hitler may have done some bad things, he was truly development oriented and a technocrat with laser sharp focus. It is inspired by him that I enrolled myself for IITJEE coaching in a concentration camp."
"My heart bleeds for the poor, and I want to set up a social business. This is why I want to be a consultant working for one of the MBB trio."
Disclaimer: These lines are not actual SoP quotations. The last US masters SoP I saw was 12-13 years ago. These are lines I made up on my own.
The Hitler reference is based on a story i heard about someone i knew in college.

His political views are very similar today as well.
BTW here are some real SoP samples that have gotten admits into good masters programs in US/Canada. Read them - there is no fluff or bullshit. Unlike what your consultant may have told you, bullshit is not required.
