But as per Forbes, at age 16, you joined your father who was already making dish soaps. You helped an existing business scale. That in itself is amazing, so you don’t have to lie that you started a business in your room.

[@TalkRajnish]

Really?

[@TalkRajnish]

Some people use to say..he present himself at Forbes after paying 15 lakhs..is this true?

[@therakeshkumarrathore]

He just did his father business

[@kiranvutla9454]

True, all the companies didn't reply because you were good at Nothing!! And you made it till here, since you were consistent at this and you still are !!

[@dictetord12]

But you were rich. When your parents are rich, they're like 'jo chahe banja beta,kuch na ho toh apna business toh hai hi'

I get where you are coming from my guy but hey, we can't replace his efforts now can we? I think the place where you came from and wrote this won't help us grow in any way, in fact, it'll just make you slightly inclined towards feeling bitter towards people. Now, I wouldn't want that for you

That's the rule of the world.. people who are good at nothing become successful... Genuinely talented people never get the opportunities they deserve

doesnt make sense he is doing what he wants ldk he got something fake he worked possibly and he reached where he wanted , he have something prove it not other but to urself

[@pasttimer27]

Have you watched the video? He put in the effort and the time. He discovered something he was good at. Nobody handed anything to him. What you wrote is untrue.

[@KeshArt]

Bullshit

[@Spidhey]

There is a reason. Those who are good at something had no other choice to be good. Those who are not, they didn't need to.

[@RahulBansal14]

He might have audience but personally I respect people that build things instead of just talking.

thanks brother, this gived me so much hope 🤣🤣

[@9elementsofff806]

bhai your parents were rich, hence u had the time and resources to discover yourself and your space and then u did get what u deserved
