As I sit at my desk and contemplate the EY Entrepreneur of the Year award in front of me, I find myself lost in a sea of gratitude. This isn’t just a personal accolade; it’s a testament to a dream that seemed almost too bold. And that it happened on the eve of Diwali has been such a treat.

The real essence of entrepreneurship

A win like this really makes you take stock of the path that brings you to this moment and what it all means. What does it really mean to be an entrepreneur?

It's about passion, resilience, and the relentless pursuit of a vision that often seems just out of reach. It's a journey filled with challenges, learning and the joy of small victories.

A heartfelt tribute to my pillars of support

Reflecting on the whirlwind of the awards night, I'm filled with immense gratitude for everyone who's been a part of this journey. From my team to our partners, investors, and mentors – your belief in this vision has been unwavering. And to Pooja, my wife, my anchor in this tumultuous sea – your support is my constant.
