We have ChatGPT. We have AI writing our emails, making our presentations, creating our images and answering questions we haven’t even finished asking. Everybody is talking about how intelligent AI is becoming. And everybody seems to have an opinion about whether it will eventually replace us. But perhaps we are asking the wrong question. What […]
There is something slightly ironic about the way we talk about children and screens. We tell them to put the phone down. Usually while holding ours. We tell them not to watch too much YouTube. Then spend two hours scrolling reels because we had a “stressful day.” We worry that children are addicted to screens. […]
We have ₹49 eye tests. We have eye check-ups at home. We have apps helping us find doctors. We have glasses arriving at our doorstep. We have Instagram telling us which surgery we should get before we have even met the surgeon. Eye care has probably never been this accessible. The interesting question is: Are […]
We have Google. We have ChatGPT. We have YouTube. We have courses teaching us how to use AI, and courses teaching us how to use those courses. Basically, information is no longer the problem. Too much information is. That was one of the more interesting starting points in my conversation with Prof. Mukesh Sud in […]
We Indians love imported things. Cars. Phones. Management jargon. And apparently, health advice. 10,000 steps. BMI. Intermittent fasting. Protein targets. Cold plunges. Longevity hacks. All very scientific. There is just one small problem. Our bodies may not behave like the bodies those recommendations were originally built around. That was the starting point of my conversation […]
Most founders prepare for growth. Very few prepare for a crisis—or think seriously about crisis management for founders. We obsess over funding, hiring, scaling, sales, marketing and valuation. We proudly discuss market share and expansion plans. Yet, almost nobody sits in a boardroom and asks, “What happens if tomorrow we receive a legal notice? What […]
There are stories that make headlines. And then there are stories that outlive them. Indrani Mukerjea’s story has lived both lives. Once the face of India’s media industry — a woman in boardrooms, breaking ceilings and building empires — she is now on stage, barefoot, drenched in light, telling stories through theatre, dance, and words. […]
We live in an age where everyone is obsessed with the next big thing – AI, automation, disruption. But in all this noise, we’ve forgotten the oldest thing – being human. Episode 8 of Truth Shots with Kapil, hosted by Kapil Gupta, an Indian political thinker known for connecting modern realities with timeless truths, brings […]
Welcome back to Season 4 of Truth Shots with Kapil – the season where we’ve promised to rip off the band-aids, burn the PR handbooks, and tell stories that make people squirm. If Episode 6 was a brutal takedown of corporate lies with PepsiCo’s CFO Kaushik Mitra, Episode 7 takes us into the beating (and […]
India’s Economic Truth: What Really Lies Behind the Trillion-Dollar Dream
India is obsessed with growth numbers. Every year, as the Finance Minister stands at the podium and delivers the budget, millions watch as if it’s a national festival. Markets rise and fall, television anchors declare economic victories, and social media lights up with memes and graphs. But very few people know what really happens behind […]
