In this episode, we talk to Vijay Mallya once known as the King of Good Times. He opens up about the rise of Kingfisher, the fall that followed, and the personal cost of building an empire that couldn’t survive.

We explore how his larger-than-life image was built, how flamboyance became a business strategy, and why his father’s legacy shaped every move he made. From airlines and IPL to Formula 1 and luxury lifestyles, Mallya reflects on the choices that defined him.

He shares why he believes business failure is seen as fraud in India, why he regrets starting Kingfisher Airlines, and how the media shaped public opinion against him. He also talks about repaying more than he borrowed, the pain of letting go, and the long silence he’s finally breaking.

In the final segment, he addresses the question everyone’s been asking will he return to India? And in the end, was he a showman, a businessman, or simply misunderstood?

In today’s episode of Figuring Out we have Ankur Warikoo in conversation with Raj Shamani. He is personally, one of my favourite creators and after this conversation, I became an even bigger fan of him. He is the founder of WebVeda, the best-selling author of Do Epic Shit, and a content creator. Till now you have known Ankur Warikoo as a content creator and teacher but today you will know Ankur Warikoo as a person.

In this episode, we started our conversation by talking about why India is a trust deficit country, why Mumbai is a professional capital of India and the power dynamics. He then shared the story of the phase when we had no income source during COVID-19, how he had only 5 months' worth of savings and how he planned to live in the mountains if nothing worked out, and how he then started a YouTube channel and hit 1 million subscribers within a year. We then talked about how Tata was successful in building trust, how anyone can start their personal branding journey and create content, and he shared some tips for the same.

Towards the end, we talked about his unique hiring process and he also shared why he claims that he is one of the top recruiters in India. We then talked about whether new financial guidelines have affected the way he makes finance content and whether it changed his content strategy. We ended our conversation by talking about why he is against hustle culture and the perspective he shared gave a new insight on hustle culture.

In this episode, we talked with Rajiv Talreja, Asia’s leading Business Success Coach and founder of Quantum Leap Learning Solutions & DreamCraft Events. With years of experience coaching entrepreneurs, he breaks down the myths around success, money, and business growth. Do big networks guarantee success? Is scaling the only way forward? Rajiv reveals eye-opening truths that challenge everything we’ve been told about making it big.

From understanding your real goals to breaking free from external validation, we dive deep into the mindset shifts needed for long-term success. Why do most people chase money the wrong way? Why do we crave status over substance? And most importantly, how do you deserve the dream you want? Rajiv shares a fresh perspective on business, intention, and why fundamentals matter more than fame.

In the last part, we explore why deep thinking is the most underrated skill for business owners and how to shift from borrowed aspirations to true clarity. This episode might change the way you look at success!
