‘If I’d learned Hindi, I’d be worth ₹1 lakh crore’: Aircel founder’s coldest self-review yet

With Ranveer Allahbadia, a cruel, Aircel founder C Sivasankaran did not blame success, competitors or regulators for his wealth. He blamed the language and location.

“If I learned Hindi, I would attract all 140 hollow Indians,” he said, adding, “and if I moved to Delhi or Bombam.”

It is a shocking requirement that comes from a man who once stood on the peak of the Indian telecommunications revolution, competing with Titans like BSNL and Bharti Airtel. But for Sivasankaran, it’s better for Hindi-no better deals, it was a step that could change everything. Subject to the age of 24, by taking electrical equipment and taking the giants like BHEL, reflected how the geography and language left him from the isolated Indian corridors.

His regret does not wrap in bitterness, but with clarity. “I don’t want to take loans. I’m attracting money, “he said to Allaghbada. “In 68, I have never borrowed 100 with personal capacity.” However, despite his entrepreneurs, his biggest deals slipped not a lack of vision, but probably because of the lack of communication.

Although he is currently struggling with bankruptcy, fraud investigations and travel restrictions due to serious legal payments, including loan advances and money laundering, Siva has not lost his appetite. He has launched new enterprises, including crazy home business, and claims that India’s regulatory climate is finally moving in the right direction.

But that is, one sharp reception that language is missing to him that he is worth luck, which cuts the noise. In a country where regional entrepreneurs often hit the impact and expansion glass ceiling, the reflection of the Sivaialan is not only personal, it is a warning.

“I made two mistakes,” he said. “Learning Hindi. And not moving to Delhi or Bombay. That’s it. “

And sometimes, that’s all you need to miss the ₹ 1 lakh Kror.
