Very Much Indian’s Post

I have always failed to understand how India celebrates its consistent failure at the summer Olympics with such brazenness Despite a tiny population of 5.5 Million, Finland has won 101 Gold medals at the Summer Olympics till date India on the other hand has just won a meager 37 medals (Only 10 gold) till date Even third world nations like Kenya win more Individual gold medals in every Olympics than India has ever won (just 2 in a century) Are our people so incompetent ? Or have we become used to being a loser ? Obviously not But the answer lies in the fact that we really do not like to ask tough questions like these to our favorite political leaders and to ourselves We instead prefer to celebrate being an international joke as a moment of National pride, thanks to Internet and media positivity Sports today are no longer the result of Individual excellence but an outcome of a country's investment in infrastructure, training and technology None of which we do as a nation in any sport except cricket The key to progress in life as a country, society and Individual is continuous improvement To improve, you first need to agree to the existence of something terribly wrong For winning medals, creating jobs and progressing in any sphere today, be it Olympics or a corporate job We need a change in the mindset of our nation - A bronze is not good enough For building an India of our dreams, we need massive investments in Technology, education and infrastructure in sports, industry and every place we want to win We needed it yesterday but we don't seem to be planning on doing it even tomorrow But Nirmala ji ko kya, wo toh na onion khaati hain, na sports khelti hain Dheeraj Jain | ReGraduate

Most celebrities in India start either a restaurant or a clothing line. Here's why? Ever noticed how many Bollywood stars, cricketers, singers seem to be opening restaurants or clothing lines? From Virat Kohli to Shilpa Shetty—you name it—they must either have a restaurant or clothing line. There's a reason for that. Let's break it down from an investment perspective: 1/ Passion Projects ➥ Many celebrities genuinely love fashion or food ➥ And opening a restaurant or clothing line can be a way to express their creativity outside of acting, singing, etc. 2/ Leveraging Fanbase ➦ Celebrities already have a built-in audience – their fans ➦ who are familiar with their style and taste. ➦ This gives them a head start in brand recognition for their ventures. ➦ People are curious and interested in trying something connected to their favorite star. 3/ Opportunity and Profitability ➤ The food and fashion are big businesses in India. ➤ There's a growing market for new experiences and trendy clothes ➤ with a large and growing consumer base. ➤ Which makes them attractive for investment. ➤ Celebrities might see a gap in the market they can fill ➤ Or a particular type of cuisine or clothing line that aligns with their image. So — Owning a restaurant or clothing line can be a lucrative way for celebrities to invest their money. 4/ Investment Potential ➨ These businesses can be a good way to invest their wealth. ➨ Real estate for restaurants ➨ And manufacturing facilities for clothing lines provide tangible assets. Is it all glamorous? Of course, not every celebrity restaurant or clothing line is a hit. It takes a i] Good business plan ii] Quality products iii] And smart marketing to succeed, just like any other venture. Of course, <Not all celebrity-owned restaurants and clothing lines are successful.> | After all, even the biggest stars can't make a bad product successful.| But the potential rewards Along with the existing fanbase = Make restaurants and clothing lines an attractive option for many Indian celebrities. … Do you think this trend will continue? What kind of business would you like to see your favorite celebrity launch? Share your thoughts in the comments! Sarthak Ahuja Raj Shamani Akshat Shrivastava #BusinessStrategy

Brand New Sport : Timeless Heritage  The enterprise value of Indian sport is defined by, and largely limited to, the remarkably successful IPL. We need to enlarge that frame of reference to inject more energy, ambition & entrepreneurship into sport in India. The Yogasana Super League (YSL) is here to do just that ! Although Yoga, the most advanced & holistic art & science of healthy living, dates back 5000 years, Yogasana (the physical practice of yoga) was recently included as a competitive sport in the Asian Games. That said, the richness of its inheritance is unparalleled : at USD 107 bio, the global Yoga economy is nearly 20% of the overall international sports industry. Featuring the world's finest yogasana athletes, the YSL shall, by earnestly embracing the creator universe, become the living-anthem for youthful creativity, vitality, sporting excellence and a spirit of enterprise. YSL will establish that a contemporary sport, culture & economy can be built on traditional wisdom & values. Sadly, only 6% of India plays regularly. YSL's mission is to universalise the relevance, spirit & sanctity of sport in India. Yogasana Bharat undefined Udit उदित Sheth New Horizons Alliance Private Limited

For the last six years, I have been trying to experiment with different sports and programs to reduce the external noise and trends and to move towards having a net positive impact on the world. Wearing an entrepreneur hat it has been difficult to challenge my own urban middle-class thinking. Here is how I have tried to improve: Moving away from popular sports to playing local sports like Kho-Kho which doesn’t require concrete courts and can be played on muddy surfaces. (preventing soil erosion, water pollution, flooding and numerous environmental concerns) Moving away from the need to provide shoes to children to playing barefoot which research has shown to improve posture, foot strength and gut bacteria. (Also, moving away from spending a large chunk of money on brands that run sweatshops and promote inequality) Reducing spending large amounts of money on equipment(made out of plastic) and using locally available things. There are still a lot of things that we could do better. What do you guys think? Does the current spending on sports in India have a net positive or negative in the world? Does promoting sports in India come at the cost of sustainability? Ulhas Vairagkar Dilip Kumar Nishi Kant Sharma Sports and Society Accelerator Simply Sport Foundation

Cult is India's first fitness unicorn that made 700 crores in revenue last year. But in such a crowded space of fitness, what strategy did Cult apply in order to become such a huge hit? Let's figure it out. Welcome to Day 69 of Unlocking Business Brilliance, a 100-day challenge. The reason behind Cult's success is their acquisition strategy. In 2015, the founders of Myntra, Mukesh Bansal and Ankit Nagori, started CureFit when they realized that India was becoming tech-savvy and health-conscious at the same time. Later, CureFit was rebranded as CultFit and it went on an aggressive acquisitions spree. They started acquiring gyms and gym chains like the Gold's Gym in order to grow their consumer base faster. Also, Cult understood that fitness was not just about physical gym locations. It was more than that. It was about mental health, diet and many other things. And that is why they have scaled their operations into food and mental health sectors too. And thus, they have acquired many other startups like Fitkit, RPM Fitness and Seraniti so that they can boost their growth in those sectors while giving their customers a one -stop solution for all their fitness needs. Cult understood that winning the trust of consumers in many segments would take years. So why not acquire startups in order to build the distribution that is needed for success? This is business brilliance. 

Nitin Gadkari Lot of appreciation on what you have done to change Indian roads. But one more suggestion. It is hightime NOC system is implemented for all infrastructure, building and Town planning project approvals in India. All stakeholders departments like Municipality, Panchayat, Airport, PWD, Electricity, street lighting, watersupply, storm water, roadside plantation irrigation, drainage Telecommunications, data provider like BSNL or JIO, surveillance etc`s NOC should be channelized electronically with limited time on single online submissions. To do this the complete infrastructure existing above ground and below ground infrastructure should first be uploaded on GIS. All clash to be resolved & final GIS data to made available of government departments & consultant so that the solution without clash are proposed before permits are issued to infrastructure or building construction. Still we do have standard typical road section for different wide of roads. No one knows on which side at what depth any underground services are to laid. No future pipe duct sleeve are laid across new road. If this NOC system is implementation like in UAE or Singapore, we can reduce the breakage of newly constructed road in future.
