I couldn't agree more with Anupam Mital's perspective on how some individuals find contentment in a mediocre life, ultimately hindering their potential for growth. It's eye-opening to see how complacency can become a comfortable yet limiting space for some. BUT life is a subjective journey, and we all navigate it in our own way.
What Actually hit me Like a bus was when anupam said "In the WEST communication responsibility is of the SPEAKER that addresses a CROWD whereas in INDIA we do it opposite creating more problems due to confusions." That was like awesome insight.
Absolutely Right, we usually think ourselves as fools if we are not able to understand something said by someone,rather than the speaker taking the responsibility to explain in a more lucid mannner.
Love the way Anupam explains his perspective. The clarity of thought is just incredible So different from typical entrepreneurs with good academic backgrounds and making it big through hard work but also alumni support from funding companies . Anupam brings a wealth of life experience which makes him so interestingly different. Thanks Shantanu for getting the best out of Anupam. And Shantanu man you can’t stop yourself from having chips. Guess they were meant more for the guest than you :))
Despite being someone with no entrepreneurial ambitions as of now, I can say this is one of the best podcast episodes I've ever seen. It leaves you with insights about something far greater, that is..life. Amazing👏🏼
This is what you become when you live abroad for foreseeable time, struggle, gather global perspective and then come back to the India. I'm currently in the UK and aspiring to become the same when I return baack to my home land India♥️
@@ronmiller3741 We should achieve our goals by setting a destination. If first we could reach anupams level, the we can aim for these big Whales. The thing is not making someone idol, aim is to achieve the level the are on currently.
@23:19 The BIGGEST test of any communication/training/speech/conversation/feedback is the golden rule we learnt WHILE I was managing about 3-400 people in a call centre... The golden rule is to "CHECK FOR UNDERSTANDING-CFU" it's one of my favourite cliches and it works EVEN while teaching Math to my 10 yr old... You CANNOT go WRONG, in fact, if you don't CFU, there's almost certainty that you WILL go WRONG
I loved the fact that Anupam literally called out complacent people being content with their complacency. This hinders the aspirations that an individual has. Clarity without a vision and purpose is nothing. Hearing those market insights and hacks which play a huge role answered my questions that I had my whole life. Would love to see more of such candid convos where both of em are passionate to explain why this happpens and explain the cause to that effect.
Anupam bhai, killing it. It is one of the very few video where I am not forwarding it at all, even if I miss a second I am going back and listening to it again , thank you guys for getting together 😊
The responsibility of communication was a great bit. Please make a short out of it. I want my team to see this and a short will help to drive the point across while attributing proper credit
Sir Shantanu, saw your recent reel about your student's character development , how could someone go through that kind of CHANGE with less resources , really inspired by the razor-preneur thing and learned a lot from your podcasts ❤❤ love from MH
First time in my life i listened to a 2 hour conversation without even pausing for a second. The quality of this conversation is too good. Waiting eagerly every Friday for your next video ❤
This episode have been truly revolutioninsg to me , Recoverring from a painful surgery as I watch this on my bed, hoping to stand up again, it has already given me idea to try once again in my life. I will apply for internships at both of your founder's office and try my luck.
First 15 mins : Got confused about who's channel is this 15% story teller and 85% realistic sharing ..anupam..u rock man Inspiring conversation.. you had a good family which instilled default confidence level from your early life..however it doesn't stop common man to get inspired. Note: shantanu...ur the boss..keep going
Same path I am right now onto like what anupam sir said and I too know , today am working my ass off but soon I'll achieve it❤️. I love the vibe he has.
So amused to see that podcasts are teaching more than the Indian education system ever could. It's more on practicality. I'm 16 years old and Shantanu what you're doing is absolutely amazing
I've learned a lot from this wonderful podcast, but the last 1-2 minutes completely captivated me. 1. Develop skills that will help you in your entrepreneurial journey over the next 1 or 2 decades. 2. Focus on figuring out how to do a meaningful work. My problem was that I used to observe the problems faced by people and come up with business ideas to solve them, but I was always incapable and lacked resources. And what prevents me from jumping out and solving the problem is the conviction that "a rocket without sufficient fuel will always miss the orbit and crashland". Now, with Anupam's advice, I can go and build capabilities for myself and not be insecure about the ideas during this phase. Thankyou Anupam and Shantanu. Btw, I am one of those youths who have high aspirations but lack some sort of resource or opportunity.
Great Podcast. Lots of great ideas been shared by the 2 great entrepreneurs. Love to see India move towards $10 trillion dollar economy in my lifetime. They also talked about Lululemon. Nice to hear about this great brand. Their head office is right across our building in Vancouver. Didn't know that this brand is popular in India as well. Hope Indian entrepreneurs create some great international brands in this coming decade.
Amazing to see such great insights from Anupam and Shantanu thanks for bringing this to us....which never happened before....still struggling to do my own thing from 2011 I guess it's not easy for everyone it would be great if you both could provide an interactive platform for such people...who otherwise don't end up scrolling the reels
Historically, we operated within tight constraints, and opportunities were exceedingly scarce. Consequently, the proverb "Only the king's son will become the king" held significant truth. However, this situation has evolved, and it is expected to continue evolving.
I never watch these long RUclips videos but the insights from Shantanu and his guests are too good to miss. It reminds me of marketing classes during my MBA days. Amazing content and a real value addition to viewers in terms of quality and time spent! I think Shantanu, you should make small video shorts on your insights. They are so good and deep !😅 it's almost a dopamine hit. No wonder you like McKinsey so much 😅😅
I work at a start-up here in the UK. I had an idea but was hesitant to act on it. However, after listening to Anupam, I've decided to hire some people in India and get my project off the ground.
One word - insightful. Every segment was very productive with lot of takeaways. Anupam Mittal - your perspectives are very thought provoking and Shantanu’s 2 cents on every topic keeps the conversation very interesting. Looking forward to many more to come!!
One of the best podcasts I have seen. Thx. I wish you would ask that these people invest in 100s of companies - how do they manage them ?? Do they have a team ? How many people in a team ? Etc.
Loved the podcast Shantanu and amazing questins you asked but idk i felt weird about the setup and lighting since last ep, older setup is much more pleasant to watch. Cheers
I don’t comment on any videos but this was so inspiring and insightful that i couldn’t resist myself to post… amazing and very motivational video thank you so much for this Anupam and Shantanu!! I will post about this video when i will achieve my goal 🙏
Amazing chat... Really fascinating consumer insights. As a BFSI guy I am always fascinated by the consumer goods sector (and the insights from it)... Totally Loved It! Great job Shantanu and thanks once again for doing this amazing stuff...
This podcast such a sublime mix of intellectualism and practicality - mixed with real life entrepreneurial lessons and case studies. Kudos Shantanu, loved every minute of it!
Zara and mango are very similar brand. They lower their reverse logistics by looking at sales of competitors in the same price point. Thus they have information of what brand works or not.
bought a bombay shaving company post shave balm 6 years ago, been using it after every shave and the bottle is still half full after 6 years. no idea how this guy is getting repeat customers since the bottle doesnt need replacing even after 10 years lol
Anupam has the guts to points out the same group of people who comment on such podcast and follow Instagram and while away and waste their time. How many people who really watch such podcast or instagram page and follow entrepreneurship. I doubt many won't even start a small self employment or become freelancers.
Fantastic podcast, one of the best in The BarberShop. I love the diversity of topics you'll covered and provides a macro view on life, society and how businesses evolve with society. The data point on businesses growing with GDP per capita is really deep. Glad you also touched upon Ram Mandir and how its impacting older generations. Underscores the depth of thought Anupam brings from his learnings and reflection.
How does one get investement? Have a business that has been running successfully since past 13 years but need a leverage for expansion. Who to approach? How to approach?

Yup THO everyone is free to make their choices, and we are NO one to judge AGREED

This 2 hour session was the best vocabulary class I have ever taken.
fr.i was gonna say that thats a fairly popular opinion
Yes 8

I can listen to him for days, speaks truth, speaks respectfully, isn't afraid to tell people off, core values are straight.
And knows how to have fun!
23:20 super concept and so well articulated !
Great conversation
Anupam is the Indian OG entrepreneur of internet era

We keep making bill gates,Elon Musk, Steve Jobs our idols, but we have a goldmine of great founder like Anupam in India.
I too like the guy. But cant compare a shaddi wali website with “A pc on every desk”, “world’s best computers”, “making humanity multi-planetary”

Anupam is such a treasure trove of wisdom and knowledge, and a lot of what he says hits so beautifully - as “AH-A” moment!

Following Anupam's Advise seriously watch from @1:49:23
😢😢
Zara, H&M and Uniqlo are more than 50 years old companies. They had the so called first-move advantage.
Tony stark of India..
Anupam is super kool..

Beautiful Podcast. I'm very impressed by Shantanu's brilliance
You are gay for taklu
The crux of the show is in the last 20-30 mins. Fabulous!
Anupam mittal! Remember the name!
Shantanu during job at Mckinsey thought he will do it for the lifetime but now we can see him doing Startup. We are interested in this story.
Amazing conversation Shantanu
i truly relate with Anupam's talk on "Why Only 1 Zara", and why are we not aspiring to build one for us, but not long i guess.
I love the Bombay shaving company's razor .. I haven't gone back to waxing since 2020... What a blade technology can do ! ❤
Anupam = Conviction 1000%
This is one of the best podcast ever. Pure Wisdom
One of the best Shark having wide knowledge across the industries. One of the best podcast I have ever heard. Great insights!
Most consistent thing in this podcast is Shantnu eating those snacks/ chips and sipping coffee 😅
Great podcast by the way
This was bang on target. There should be a part 2 for this. Lots of nuggets of information.
Great Podcast. Lots of great ideas been shared by the 2 great entrepreneurs. Love to see India move towards $10 trillion dollar economy in my lifetime. They also talked about Lululemon.

Shantanu - Yes. It does Impact at least 1 person to go out and try doing some bunch of things.
Very informative and entertaining video. Great value of my time. It just justified my break ❤

I work for a big firm from UK, let me know if i can join you as a data analyst
Barbershop is the reason I am a BSC user now. Well done with this podcast Shantanu.
Finally mittal ji ne dil jit liya hamara. Bhai rockstar lagte the, aab pata chal Gaya ki rockstar hai.
Interesting
bhai bohot zyada legendary podcast tha ye
Was waiting for this soooo badly . Enjoyed it to the fullest
One of the best podcasts I have seen. Thank you Shantanu and Anupam.
This is by far the best BarberShop podcast so far !
One word - insightful. Every segment was very productive with lot of takeaways. Anupam Mittal - your perspectives are very thought provoking and Shantanu’s 2 cents on every topic keeps the conversation very interesting. Looking forward to many more to come!!
One of the best podcasts I have seen. Thx.
I wish you would ask that these people invest in 100s of companies - how do they manage them ??
Do they have a team ?
How many people in a team ?
Etc.
It's such a deep conversation that put me high on a stream of critical thoughts.

I totally agree with Anupam, bootstrap meaningful hard work should be glamorized not raising funds.
It's all about building value!
Amazing Conversation 🔥
This podcast such a sublime mix of intellectualism and practicality - mixed with real life entrepreneurial lessons and case studies. Kudos Shantanu, loved every minute of it!
I guess this has to be with Aman and Anupam because that will give more insight than anything from the market.
Zara and mango are very similar brand. They lower their reverse logistics by looking at sales of competitors in the same price point. Thus they have information of what brand works or not.
This is such a brilliant podcast.!
Shortest 2 hrs.
Thanks to Shark Tank Indian entrepreneurs like Anupam have come out with stories and inspiring
anupam is the only one who gets you thinking
This video is all set to hit million views
"hunger", Anupam bhai is 100% spot on with that one. An empty stomach will teach 100 lessons that a full stomach cant teach
Highly insightful discussion - really love Anupam, his philosophy and take on life (including focus on Fitness)!! ❤🎉 🇮🇳
amazing insights from both of you ..... excellent stuff
Opportunity in banking is also huge. We might have big banks collapsing if fintech start getting bank licenses.
Anupam...amazing fashion, amazing articulation, amazing analysis and knowledge.
the saying no is such a great insight.

bought a bombay shaving company post shave balm 6 years ago, been using it after every shave and the bottle is still half full after 6 years. no idea how this guy is getting repeat customers since the bottle doesnt need replacing even after 10 years lol

What a brilliant conversation! Learned a lot.
thank you for the wonderful questions shantanu - those elicit the rich responses from guests

Awesome interview.
Really good insights...❤❤❤
I had an account in around 2007... im still egtting messages from people ive tried deleting but i cant even log in.
After the months episode. On air but I just love Bombay shaving company groming kit packaging for man
Would love to watch one more podcast with him focused on GenZ
Thanks Shantanu for this incredibly insightful conversation!
This was the best podcast i heard in a real long time other than the constant pluging for shaving products. Throws the trend of the conversation
Need an episode dedicated to just qualitative consumer insights!
Amazing insightful and refreshing conversation!
Love such conversation . Which gives a new perspective to think . Thank you so much . Keep posting Keep teaching.
