Renewed my X premium. Best money I have spent over the past year. @ganeshsonawane nudged me to use X last year and it has been a fruitful journey. I love X because of the people, here is a glance 1. Entreprenuers: I came across many great brands and their founders, bought some great products and now I am locked in on supporting homegrown brands, even if it means logistical arrangements and expenses. A shout out to @SagarAwatade , @supreetkashyap @saybwala for building Amazing products that beat or at least compete with global players. A special shout of to @prakdadlani for being so bullish on India. 2. People: I have connected to so many great people including the ones mentioned above. Special shout out to @FreeMeGyanLo for being my cheerleader all year, @immasiddx and @mrtechsense as they are cool and help me with tech. Theres a group of youngster who makes me laugh every single time I open the app. they know who they are, truly hilarious. 3. Fitness: This one has been the most inconsistent one for me but there's 3 people who motivate us to do better. @AnshulGains : I have given up smoking for good and cut down alcohol by 95%. @AanchalXIV has been a motivation for me and @Revati24 alike, we are more regular now and have better form. And @prachiruns , who has already completed a 10km run every time I wake up. I know this is a platform for unapologetic opinions and X has allowed me to be genuine. I never intended to use a social media app after 2022. But, I joined X, was genuine, and I was rewarded. So here is my mission for the year: Be a soundboard for anyone who needs one, share my expertise and network free of cost with anyone who wants to build, grow or just make the world a better place. Here's to all the great people I know because of this platform!

While modelling, I always consider a 5% buffer in operating expenses calling it employee payback.
I have never met a business owner who was not cheated of his/her cash either by the accountants/cashiers/purchase managers etc just bcz they started out and trusted too much on their staff. Your left to right wing of business journey is incomplete without a big fraud

The very reason Frido is my favourite homegrown brand! They started with a great purpose and they haven’t lost it to commercial success. Congratulations to you guys! The impact matters!
Yesterday was a very special day for us as we opened our first exclusive Frido Exclusive Mobility store in Andheri, Mumbai. Very few people know that our journey actually began with a wheelchair, long before Frido became the brand it is today. What made the launch truly memorable was having our wheelchair users, medical professionals and wheelchair cricket players celebrate with us. For us, mobility has always been about independence, dignity and the freedom to do more. 🙏

Why has everything become so political? Miss the time when my TL was filled with people talking about business growth and opportunities!

I bought my first self-funded phone in 2010. It was a Nokia 5233. I recently upgraded my iPhone 17 Pro Max to iOS 27. I feel my Nokia had less glitches.

Nothing humbles a human more than having an Indian passport.
If Bulgarian split squats don’t humble you, nothing will. 🫠

My everyday changes. I am going urban today. So that means public transport and being minimal. No laptops as today is about team building. Here’s what I have:
My Every Day Carry.

Can we talk about how car tech is becoming cooler by the day? @immasiddx it is not that bad to use in reality.

Because it just does not matter.
I often wonder why people with more than adequate means don’t invest in taste, or simply seek out people who have it. On this app, I’ve seen VCs and founders who clearly have the means, but the way they dress and put together their spaces feels almost like an afterthought. There are so many people with a genuinely good eye for these things. If you have the means, why not make use of it?
