People praising Rockstar for “good pricing” in India clearly have no idea how regional pricing works.
Almost every major game is priced lower in India compared to global markets.
The bar is so low that people celebrate what is already industry standard.
High chance Rockstar will announce a disc edition later.
Feels intentional, probably a way to maximize early digital sales first, then roll out physical copies after the hype peak 🥲🥲

I have hated on almost every fintech founder at some point, but never Kunal.
Not because he's always right, but because his worldview, clarity of thought, and depth of knowledge are on a different level.
GOAT personality.
Congratulations Meta, that's one hell of a hire.
Every other leader from my previous orgs has become an AI leader overnight.

Was watching the Titan story with Dad.
He remembered buying his first HMT in Kolkata in the late 60s for ₹110, standing in a queue for it.
It made me think of my first Fastrack in school.
Funny how people forget many things, but never the story of their first watch.
A ₹2 lakh Titan Edge Mechanical is the watch equivalent of a ₹50 lakh Tata Car.
The product may be exceptional, but when a brand spends decades owning the value segment moving upmarket becomes its biggest challenge.
One of the founder’s son from Rajesh Exports was my batchmate in Bangalore.
It took us nearly 3 years to figure out how wealthy his family was. Drove a sub-₹5 lakh car, never mentioned the business, and was one of the most grounded people in the batch.
Started playing with ‘Logo’ in Class 4th onwards and instantly knew coding wasn’t my thing. Somehow still ended up topping computers every year before choosing commerce.
Still somehow more techie than most techies, despite never being one.
In Bihar, respect for elders isn’t a gesture, it’s a way of life.
You grow up learning it at home, living it every day. Even if someone is just a year older than you, you’re taught to value and respect them.
Sadly, far less common in states like Maharashtra.
