Appreciate the quality of the questions and equally Mr Mehta’s genuine answers too,Amazing podcast 👊👍👍

[@jpparekh]

Great discussion with strong views and guidance on redevelopment issues. Need for honesty and integrity is well laid out by Vikram. However, I do disagree with the comments about architects' having callous attitudes in some examples citing “not having a skin in the game” as the reason. Sir, if you feel your architect lacks commitment, it's time to find a new one. 😊 For any responsible professional, lending their name to a project is their most significant investment in the game. Looking forward to more such discussions in time to come. Keep up the diversity of topics and professionals.

Point about open deficiency was something i knew but unknowingly never paid much attention to!! And the fact about blindly doing as “Professional people” say is so much relatable, loved pretty much every minute in this video! Good one man keep going!
