Episode 90 takes you deep into the world of startups and entrepreneurship with an extra pinch of humor! Rinshad Kuruniyan and Aneez M Latheef put Deepak Mohan—our IIM Ahmedabad graduate and ex-founder—on the hot seat as they quiz him on everything from whether business is really for everyone to the harsh truths of startup life.

- Deepak shares his journey of choosing entrepreneurship over a job during his MBA days, inspired by the legendary Prof. Sunil Handa. He opens up about building an AI startup with his IIT Madras batchmates long before AI became a buzzword, the highs and lows of raising funds, the impact of investors, and the reality behind startup clout.

- The gang also dives into a fun analysis of why Abu (Aneez’s brother), who dabbled in pickles, cakes, and fried chicken, isn’t scaling up—and what could be next for him!

- If you’ve ever wondered whether a startup is for you, how to survive the chaos of funding, or just love hearing raw, unfiltered business stories in Malayalam, this episode is a must-watch.

- Tune in for wisdom, laughter, and plenty of insights into the unpredictable ride of entrepreneurship.
