So inspiring and motivating interview. Madam Nyrika talks at length about various aspects of great organization and household name Godrej. She talks about the great legacy, diversified product portfolios, recent restructuring, branding, future prospects, strategic vision on innovation, AI, challenges, and failures, role of women and empowerment, being mother and challenges of raising children and managing business. Very interesting and engaging indeed. Being Godrejite I enjoyed a lot. Women power rocks!! Sharing with my wife and daughter!!

I truly admire how, in a world driven by capitalism, she chooses to prioritize the needs and desires of consumers while staying deeply committed to her sustainability goals. Her dedication to creating a better, more sustainable world is truly inspiring.

So refreshing to hear her intelligently express herself whilst playing down who she is . More interviews like this and less with the vacuous ,80's fashion queen Shalini Passi.

[@manjusampat9438]

Wonderful interview. I have so much respect for Nyrika

[@mariannmenezzes1710]

Godrej brand is well know for locks and cupboard. I am still using the same even today. There is no rust on the cupboard even after using for 30 plus years. Very nice and informative conversation. Thanks Faye

It would be an interesting segment if you invite women entrepreneurs from different sectors and talk about ecosystem in that sector, their experience etc. This was a good watch

For a moment I felt it’s Sarah Todd - Famous Australian Chef.

[@YogeshKumar-rm1rq]

Very interesting conversation. Thanks Faye for sharing this.

[@FayeDSouza]

I’m glad you enjoyed it!

[@abhishekghosh5550]

15:29 Crazy! So my grandmother had 1 godrej almari. then my father got married, so my grandfather gifted him one, so that went to our room and then my 2 uncles got married and they got 1 each from their in laws. so at 1 point there were 4 almaris in 1 house! I still possess the 2. very difficult to part ways with those.

[@joelaranha9248]

❤❤❤❤❤

[@joelaranha9248]

Nyrika Mam is so cool🫰💚

[@kishanjeetsinghchopra3808]

Rich, educated yet do simple godrej lady

[@lailasiddiqui263]

We are huge fans of steel almirah. But since it is way out of our budget , we went to a place where they clean up old steel almirahs and is in the market . Way better ( excellent) than veneer and ply cardboard closets which we painstakingly try to avoid and becomes a house for termites

[@littlepenguinsschool2447]

Absolutely . We still have 3 of our almirahs . From great grandfather handed over to great grand son

[@rikmozhuiofficial23]

Enjoying watching both of you 🔥 apload regularly

[@joelaranha9248]

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

[@rajanarora94]

I'll start watching it but if you didn't ask her anything about the labour rights and pay for her employees, I'll be so disappointed.

[@ObsidianSpearhead]

Is she related to the Royal Holkar family ????

[@stocklevelwaala947]

Godrej and boyce needs to get rid of the super oldies and legacy employees, these uncle and unties are just taking fat salary and sleeping over it with just extension over extension... All the best
