Ep #10 | WTF is the Next Gen Thinking? Nikhil w/ Navya, Tara, Aadit & Kaivalya
WTF is with Nikhil Kamath
The Power of Cuddling and Eliminating Drama
The speakers discuss the importance of cuddling, releasing endorphins, and eliminating drama from one's life. They also give personal and professional advice on how to navigate relationships and seek happiness.
Roughly 60% of the Indian population is under the age of 30 and hence the coolness funnel tends to be top-down. This is the segment that everyone will be building for. The consumption trends and behavioral patterns we hear here from these 4 accomplished people will likely remain relevant over the next decade. We have Navya - who's an unlikely grounded person one usually wouldn't assume, the precocious Zepto Brothers - where what stands out more than everything else is the bond 2 guys who met in the 6th-grade share with each other, and Tara - an outsider who paved her way into the very inside world of Bollywood. The transient nature of younger folks when it comes to housing/transport/ownership/vocation/fashion/shopping and the shorter attention spans are very different to someone like me who spends 8 hours watching a cricket match for example. Biases aside, there is so much to learn here!
