• He has written about the failures he has faced in his life on his LinkedIn account. It reads,
  

  Declined the investment banking job offer to start up an eCommerce company in 2008. Failed. Raised seed funding from Rediff to run an online insurance portal. Shut down. Ran out of money. Borrowed from friends till I landed a job at McKinsey & Co. Survived. Started up again after two years. And have been building again ever since. Today, I still don’t know what success is but I understand what happiness can be. Happiness is the cacophony of creating and the bustle of building. I’m here to share our journey as we build SUGAR Cosmetics over the next decade. Would love to have you clued in on the ride.”
