I'd go with Ritesh from Oyo for multiple reasons. I once had an opportunity to speak to a VC judge at a conclave- when I asked him, what is it that they look at in founders (keeping aside the company) the answer was - HUMILITY. I think Ritesh, carries that ethics as a shark as a person candidly observed as well. and then you have his journey, young - built a business ground up. the problem was not new - but the solution was disruptive another pick for me for a founder mentor business partner. I would want my business partner to be good at fundraising - and he is bloody good at it. If I was the hustler, in business I would really want my business partner to be a visionary to take business global, like he did with Oyo and still resonates with the local touch also his genesis of entrepreneurship started with the thiel fellowship - imagine the learnings :)
