At most events, I’m either there to attend or there to work. But at Figma Config Bengaluru, I got to be a corporate, a creator and a speaker, all in one event. Each role brought a different set of conversations, from catching up with old colleagues to meeting creators and hosting a fireside chat. I even got to hand out copies of my newly released book. The best part? The people you meet and the conversations you take back home. So, what’s the one conversation from an event that has stayed with you?

An Indian EV brand, backed by investors from the Ferrari and Intel ecosystem, just raised $85 million. And it’s completely homegrown starting from battery tech to design. This is Ultraviolette, a Bengaluru based company that’s growing really fast in EVs. Did you know about this brand? If yes, what do you like about it?

Thinking about joining a startup? Do this gut check first. 11 years. 3 startups. These are the 5 questions I wish someone had asked me before I said yes. Answer each one honestly. Yes or not yet. Nobody’s grading you. Mostly yes? You’ll probably love the chaos. Mostly not yet? That’s not a no. It just means you’ll walk in with your eyes open. Every question comes from a real moment in Part 1 of my book, Inside a Unicorn. The café interview. The six-hour app. The product we loved and still shut down.

₹1,499 or ₹1499. Which one feels cheaper? Same price. Just one comma missing. Turns out, even something this small can influence how our brains perceive prices. And there's actual research behind it. Quite fascinating how the tiniest design decisions can influence human psychology. #DesignPsychology #ConsumerBehaviour #UXDesign

In 2015, I was fresh out of college, in my first design job and sharing a flat in Mumbai. On my first day there, one of my flatmates told me about the startup he'd just joined. "It's like Foodpanda," he said. I didn't think much of it. Honestly, neither did most people back then. 😅 Swipe to see which company it was. From the first chapter of @insideaunicorn , out end of October from Penguin India. Pre-order now, link in bio. #InsideAUnicorn #StartupLife #StartupIndia #BooksOfInstagram #PenguinIndia

It brings all my investments in one place, let’s me adjust security settings instantly, and generates transaction OTPs right within the app. When open makes so banking this easy, aadat toh padegi na?

8.5 years inside a unicorn. Today it arrived in a box. Giving out these copies at @figma Config India, today 😇 The first copies of Inside a Unicorn just landed from Penguin Random House India. Strange feeling. Years of launches, late nights, wins and hard calls, now printed on paper with a spine. This is not a founder story. It’s what building a unicorn looks like from the inside, through the eyes of someone who was there every day. Pre-orders are open. Link in bio.
