Guess the question is too broad. I'll share my experience so it's probably easier to understand.
So I met the founder of a consumer brand. Decently famous on social media, does very funny, witty jokes. You make this image of them "cool, yo vibe" in your brain before meeting them. But this person is the calmest, most patient, overtly respectful guy.
How in Hindi we use "Tu," "tum," and "aap" for ascending levels of respect, this person talks in "aap" even in English. He is also that funny, witty person, but in a funny way, and not offensive. It's nice that fame hasn't got to their head.
I am genuinely surprised when I meet good people in this bad world. The paranoia you grow up with in NCR makes you doubt every other person.
I once entered the Mumbai airport washroom along with Dev Patel How are people different IRL? When someone is peeing next to you, you kinda stop putting them on a pedestal and being awed by them 😂
Woah Dev Patel
Sharing on Vijay Shekhar Sharma: Most energetic person I have ever met. Very nice in real life. Does not appear to see people as above or below him, talks to everyone with full attention
Honestly a refreshing human in every way
Haha I found him to be extremely short fused.
I have met founders/tech influencers who are somewhat famous in the tech circle they belong to; not to the overall tech circle or common people may not know them.
But most of them have been very humble and down to earth (exceptions are everywhere).
Had a chance to meet founders of one the biggest fintech company based out of bangalore. Very nice and calm vibes. Patiently asked questions on few things they were curious about. Offered some food/ coffee.
Genuinely impressed with what they've built!
Can't be Cred basis what you said, so I guess Razorpay?
