The Hard Truth About Life and Start-Ups

De: Ashneer Grover

Narrado por: Adwait Karambelkar

This is the unfettered story of Ashneer Grover—the favourite and misunderstood poster boy of Start-up India.

Raw, gut-wrenching in its honesty and completely from the heart, this is storytelling at its finest.

A young boy with a ‘refugee’ tag growing up in Delhi’s Malviya Nagar outpaces his circumstances by becoming a rank-holder at the pinnacle of academic excellence in India-IIT Delhi. He goes on to do an MBA from the hallowed halls of IIM Ahmedabad, builds a career as an investment banker at Kotak Investment Banking and AmEx, and is pivotal in the making of two unicorns—Grofers, as CFO, and BharatPe, as co-founder.

As a judge on the popular TV show Shark Tank India, Ashneer becomes a household name even as his life turns upside down. Controversy, media spotlight, garrulous social media chatter descend, making it difficult to distinguish fact from fiction.

Great book with Amazing way of storytelling (straightforward!), liked his grit in dealing with hard time and advice

What a Book!

I listened to it straight on a 37 hour flight duration and this has been one of the most inspiring yet grounding stories I've heard. As an aspiring investment banker in college, I think this book is a must read for most on the same journey as I am.

Raw and Direct

Startups are not for the faint of heart and this book does a good job of presenting one perspective of the real struggles that most don’t get to see. I appreciated the raw and direct style of the author. I would like to add that the narrator has done a great job of presenting it as close as I would have envisioned the author saying it. Liked the use of Hindi interspersed at times which made it more real and relatable.
Thank you!
