I saw a previous podcast with the promoter of Masters Union School and now Aakash. There is a stark difference in the attitude, approach and humility. Both in the education domain. But very very diffrent attitudes

"Aaj mein hi jeeta Raha.. kal ka socha nahi"❤. JC sir remembers his student names, wow!

When two generations meet, you realize how values have evolved over time. 52.25 is the best summary

This is so inspiring. We have been fed by that business and emotions can't go together. But look at this gem of a person who keeps on proving that compassion and empathy make wonders!

JC Chaudhary sir is a living legend. Aakash sir is an inspirational icon. Thankyou for the interview Author Sherry

50 year of hardwork making a offline coaching from a single room to 200 + centre across India , with valuation more than 1 billion dollar.

Inspiring. Thank you for this podcast.

We used to take tuitions from Chitkaara Sir in Chandigarh back in 2000s...Now he runs the famous Chitkaara University.....He had the same kind of personality...used to speak just like him..

Thank you Shantanu sir for this podcast....❤❤❤❤

Stalwarts of education industry. We need to bring in Mr Suresh Bharwani of Jetking Infotrain as well for podcasts. Please check for him. Amazing spiritual personality who made a mark in upskilling hardware networking. 76 year old legacy company.

Brilliant video.

Could you please add subtitles for Sir because it becomes incoherent sometimes. I felt he was crying most of the times!

Thnks to aggarwal ji for making it happen

Sir you’re bringing amazing guests ❤ Can you please bring Balaji wafers founder if possible??

I hope JC's health is fine.....

Good podcast

Mere dost ke father ke bahut ache friend hai ye ....inko live dekha tha rolls royce mein tabhi pata laga😂😂

❤️❤️

Thank you Shantanu for the amazing contents. One doubt " why don't you tell about few products of Bombay Shaving company as a marketing strategy?".

Watch the body language of Shantanu. He is not cross legged sitting relaxed. He is poised, humble, bent a bit, says - Sir. ❤ Unlike other podcasters - where I hugely find respect to be missing.

It's difficult to understand Chaudhary sir

This interview made my day. Loved how the father son bond has developed over the years. Thanks Shantanu and Thanks BarberShop 😀

First hand experience with Aakash study material in 2009 for JEE. I had purchased some study material/question banks from Aakash. The material they provided had so many logical errors. Clearly their quality check was very poor. I can only imagine the quality check on the teachers across cities which is a much more difficult task. They had great business tactics, but don't believe Aakash is a great learning place..

sir, try getting karan bajaj

I am gonna stop buying Gillette from now on for sure

Aakash must be buy back from byjus and byjus must be shutdown in order to retain Indian talent

@1:18:49 did Akash just fart??

Byjus ne Akash institute ke leagcy kharab krde ...i know kabhi kabhi coaching centre aacha nhi padta Orr hettic environment rehta hai baccho ke beech....vo Akash institute main pehle tha ....but ab usse bhi bekar due to byjus

Lol Institutions like aakash are making humanoids who can't do anythings. Not a visionary person
