How can I sync single folder in gdrive using grive?

After authenticating grive folder with command grive -a,
all the Google drive folders get downloaded to that folder. This is unwanted part for me as I don't want all my folders present in Google Drive to be downloaded and sync except one folder. I want only one folder to be downloaded and sync from that single folder to Google Drive on further change (addition/deletion of file) in that specific folder.



In short, I want a single folder to be synced in Google Drive without downloading all files of the drive to my laptop. Anybody here would suggest me how?
