Love and Entrepreneurship – Right from Bollywood

Love and Entrepreneurship go hand-in-hand I think. Think about it – you can’t be an entrepreneur if you can’t be TOTALLY PASSIONATE about your idea.

Over the weekend, I saw this Bollywood movie “Jab We Met” (meaning: When we met) starring Shahid Kapoor and Kareena Kapoor. Here is the video of the one of the songs called “Hum Jo Chalne Lage…” (the song begins after about 20 seconds)

The song is a romantic song but you can easily apply every bit of the audio to the story of an entrepreneur.

Here is the first piece of the song.. (in Hindi)

Hum Jo Chalne Lage
Chalne Lage Hai Yeh Raste
Haaan Haaan
Manzil Se Behtar Lagne Lage Hai Yeh Raste

Sort of translation to English:

We have started walking
Started walking this path
Yes, Yes
A path where the journey is better than the destination!

Can you see the similarity to how an entrepreneur views his startup
