Just came across this "SparX by Mukesh Bansal" and its just incredible. These guys (Mukesh Bansal, Shantanu Deshpande, Nikhil Kamath, etc.) didn't just stop by building their own stuff, but are now uplifting youth like us. Hats off!

Dear Mukesh,
Could you make a series on books to pick up on different subjects

[@sparxbymukeshbansal]

This is a great idea, thank you! We'll look into creating a book series.

[@cnthjcb9108]

Loved it!
Thanks Mukesh again for bringing such valuable insights that we cannot get elsewhere. Much appreciated. Please do a video with Kunal Shah around Indian Economy and Consumer Insights.

[@sparxbymukeshbansal]

Thank you for you suggestion, here's a previous episode we did with Kunal Shah - ruclips.net/video/Fx1LdidhY3A/видео.html. Hope you enjoy it!

[@anirudhm]

Thanks for doing this!

[@thyagarajesh184]

Competent & hardworking Indians meeting the right time at the right place in the USA; Silicon Valley. For example, DevRev may not become a public traded company like Nutanix.

[@user-fb8rh4iz3v]
