The Real Story Behind Startups: It's Not All Glamour! Startups are often painted as glamorous, fancy offices, rapid growth, and big investments. But behind every "unicorn" lies a story of sheer hustle, sacrifice, and belief. Take Ganesh Balakrishnan, the founder of Flatheads. He poured his soul into creating breathable, comfortable footwear for Indians. When his startup faced challenges, he had to step back and take up a job. Was it a failure? No! It was a brave decision to sustain his dream. Or consider Bharat Khatri, who started Havintha with just ₹22,000 from a credit card. Today, his journey inspires thousands of aspiring entrepreneurs to take that first step, no matter how small. Startups aren't just businesses, they’re stories of resilience, of betting on yourself when no one else does. To all aspiring founders, keep building, dreaming, and pushing. Who knows? Tomorrow, your story might inspire someone else to take the leap! What’s your favorite startup story?
