About the video.
Most college students have startup ideas — but very few know what to do after the idea.

In this video, I sit down with Adari Karthikeya, who turned a college idea into a real startup while managing academics. We talk honestly about how ideas move from imagination to execution, the challenges of building a startup in college, finding the right people, funding realities, and whether taking the startup path is actually risky.

This conversation is not motivational hype.
It’s a real, grounded discussion meant to give clarity, not false confidence.
