In this episode with Uttkarsh Singh, we have discussed a lot about both  of us attending an event called Eureka'21 by IIT Bombay in December  2021. We have also shed some light on the recent internet controversies  related to Prafull Billore, founder of MBA Chaiwala, and Love Babbar regarding his controversy of leaving Amazon for creating content on  YouTube.   

Uttkarsh is a final year student at Vellore Institue of Technology,  Bhopal. He has recently grabbed a job offer from an American Company. He also has a background in running an ed-tech start-up called EdDify. We have some very strong points to argue related to the current scenarios of popular ed-tech start-ups like Byju's, WhiteHat Junior, and  Unacademy.   

We have further discussed how small-scale Indian shops of Pani-puri sellers, grocery stores, etc. can get leverage through social media. We had a common belief where we both agreed that with the right usage of social media these small-scale start-ups can think of making big in the market.
