Q: What made you start Mera Events ? 

" When I moved back to India from the US in 2007, I wanted to start something on the B to C space and there was no idea that what to do, I was not aware what to do and I have no clue about it so, I started attending different events, seminars across the world to get to know people. The biggest problem personally what I faced was how to find the information" 

Q: What motivates you?

Now, today in entire India Mera Events is the only events platform. There are millions of people who are using the platform"

" Motivation is everybody and it changes from time ti time I always feel, when you are able to help someone even at the smallest level It motivates me" 

Q: What do you think, is the young generation doing the right thing getting into the Startup bubble?

" Absolutely yes! in fact I myself started my journey when I was a student the advantage of starting something at a student level is you don't have too much risk to face. As you progress in your life yo get settled in a job you certainly get into a comfort zone. Once you get into a comfort zone and get married, you become a family man and when you are in a family the amount of taking risk gets decreases, so when you are in student stage you can easily get into it" 

Q: A piece of advice to students? 

" I would always recommend to students to look at new problems and to think how can they solve. There are so many problems in India which they can solve, I want them to look into it and think something different, and research the pain area what people are facing daily"
