"TN is number 2 because of seeds sown by Kamarajar, not because of CMs that came after that" finally someone said it🔥👏
I wonder how many will agree with that statement. No doubt Kamarajar did well as CM, but without relentless focus on Industrialization, Education, Healthcare and Development that other CMs adopted, TN wouldn't have been where it is now.
@@imayatube For the plant to grow, the seeds have to be sown first, the fruits of the seeds lead to evolution and growth. Other CMs reaped the reward since they had the talent pool to support the industrialization. Let's say the father set up an industry and his son next came to scale up the production and revenues. Dr. Velumani is saying Mr. Kamraj created the platform to build on top and grow. That's the right perspective.
@@imayatube others had no option but to follow through. What he did in 60s resulted in educated population in the 80s and 90s and they demanded welfare.
And J Sai Deepak said Annamalai as Kamaraj 2.0

During covid I got a job of remote role which was offering me just 25k today I earn almost 50k in same job but completely remote, today I got an offer of 16lpa but on site but I rejected that I need to relocate for that to Bengaluru city. During covid I learnt one thing that good health and happier life is more important. Today we have three cattles two cows and one buffalo we put daily ten litres of milk to dairy and we are spending the same profit for household budget my entire salary I started saving. Now we started searching for a girl but most of them are rejecting me bcs I’m in village and less salary but note it soon in ten years people will come back to village life I’m so happy bcs of covid I explored the world of remote job and its meaning. Today even if I loose job I know how to survive in agriculture and this what my grandfather and my father did for generations to survive.
Very good 👌
Kudoos to you bruh 🎉🎉
U r living the real life

Bro please don't try to get married and spoil your happiness
Glad that someone remembered the great man Shri Kamaraj. He died with 128 Rs in his bank account at the time he died. He was the then Chief Minister
exactly... i being a UP guy who dont like INC... after reading about him in 2017, I admire him most. he was uneducated but he ensured that no one else around him would be the same
True words
@@abhinavagarwal3755why UP people don’t like INC
@@NerdCentral_ We trusted them earlier but then like Shri Kamaraj was passionate about the prospects of his state......we never found anything except shallow promises from the Congress........That is why after 90s we have only stuck to SP/BSP/BJP........all three parties have state grown leaders......Nobody takes non-sense from Delhi...........in the same spirit.....everyone feels UP is poor this that all that B.S..........But as someone from UP.......we can't cry our state has these problems........we have to work hard to be better.........in that attempt after Akhilesh Yadav's Yamuna Expressway.......SP started it and many others are being launched by BJP...........There is a development spree so that future generations can lead a better life.........CONGRESS ONLY PROMISES AND NEVER DELIVERS and local Congress Leaders have always been SLAVES OF 10 JANPATH DELHI.........SP AND BJP both are rivals but both are good........atleast they build Highways and Colleges.

Generally I don't get inspire from anyone, but He is my inspiration......
My eye's teared 😢 by hearing the STRUGGLE of Hon' Dr. A. Velumani... a real admirer of such success stories which GenZ will never understand and will never walk a path with thorns on it....
No book in the whole world can give a lesson like this. Such a wise man. Thank you think school for this amazing podcast. For those who criticize his English. He is more literate than 99 percent of English talking white collar idiots
So true....
💯
Fluency in English language is no marker for literacy especially when English is not your mother tongue or main language. Many Indians can speak or understand or write in more than 1 language and this is something even an average English man or American cannot do. Many English people living in UK can't even speak English properly and I say this having lived in UK for many years. So get off the bias and ill informed biases u r on
I totally agree.
I’m Andrew Paito from Kampala Uganda. Thank you for this electric show. I have surely been inspired.
Hi brother, from Nigeria
Can I ask a question
Do Ugandans eat lentils and chickpeas
@@adelabuidris6292yes they eat...I was in uganda for two years.
I have been on the internet since the age of 10, I am 21 now and never have I watched such a powerful video. His story fills me with inspiration more than any influencer or public speaker has been able to. Thank you Think School for this video, I truly appreciate it.
"yaaru sir antha nalu per" - This was the best part of the podcast. Need more of this :)
Time stamp pls??

Man sit next to Sir Dr APJ abdul kalam at all....😍😍😍😍
Its astonishing that he said no one knows Kamaraj! Shows how our school system has failed us
This is the only podcast where i have not distracted by advertisement which were coming in between... Thank you sir thank you for sharing all this❤
I watched this entire podcast without once looking at the time-a testament to its engaging and beautiful content. Kudos to you, Ganesh, for consistently enhancing our productivity and keeping us captivated. Your efforts are truly appreciated!
One of the best podcasts I've ever come across in my life.. Dr. Velumani, I must say, so humble personality.... Kudos to team Think School ✨
He is such an honest man and so proud of his journey and he should be.
After watching the entire podcast, i can conclude that Velumani sir's life timeline aligned magically favouring him because he was willing to do anything to escape poverty and establish his name into the history. Whatever the language he speaks I'll still listen to him without a single distraction, gaining wisdoms from this legendary icon is worth a billion ❤ Thank you sir.
Just amazing. For straight two hours with every minute passing and his words and thoughts were making me stunned, every thought of him opening a new perspective to look at things in my mind. Thank you Ganesh sir for bringing such a great man at your podcast. Loved it!!!
Hi bro

Sir Dr. Velummani, is a truly inspiring Man, honestly didn't give myself any chance to skip for even a second.
I'm a big fan of this man . I also watched his podcast on Raj shamnani channel. Sir velumani ur a inspiration for young generation.
this was the same realisation i got during my vipassana discourse that luxury is not that you are living your life with full of resources luxury is something how simple life you can make without overloading the resources
Wow....! What a Man Dr. Velumani Sir is... This is the best Podcast I have ever Listened to. In fact I never watched the watch until he said and I'm quoting " I'm a man who can keep audience engaged for an hour or two without they watching the watch"
thankyou ganesh bhaiya for bringing such great personalities on our podcast !
Dr Velumani is really an inspiration to everyone .. esp. the ones who hit on failures every step.. he is really one who lived to chase his troubles and got thrill in the same
Wonderful content Think School. Mr Velumani Sir is so comfortable and comic in explaining his hardships and success, it got me tears and joy to know what he has accomplished so far. Thankyou for bringing him at your bench. Also hats off to you Sir Velumani for being an icon to us.
Pure bliss, watched this full 2 hours episode. Actually way way better than reels !!
This is not just a podcast but pure wisdom. All rounded episode on the chapter called LIFE. Thank you @ThinkSchool
This man is amazing.. each word out from him is lovable..
You have a long way Ganesh bro... I still remember a year ago You were manifesting and planning to do the Business Podcast with Velumani Sir and ask him about HOW he cracked and mastered the logistics in Thyrocare
And I also Thank Velumani for bringing ThyroCare...for saving us the money in my Parents Blood tests especially for Thyroid tests.
I have watched and listened to many podcasts, but this one was special on all the terms, be it the struggles of our lives, relationships, or businesses! Everything is in one place; thanks for the episode Think School.
Great Podcast! Thanks "Think School" for all the Learnings. Dr. Velumani is truly inspirational!❤

Hardwork + consistent + discipline + specific knowledge + focus + luck= dr velumani
This is what true hardwork, belief and focus bring to a man. Amazing!

What a fantastic podcast brother. I also didn't see the watch while watching the podcast. Brilliant choice of yours to bring this kind of man to INDIAN BUSINESS PODCAST.
Indian business podcast is the next big thing❤️❤️ it's just so so so good and relevant
First time ever I've watched a podcast in one go that too of two hours.
What an amazing journey, very insightful.
Thanks for this Ganesh!!
This podcast has less punchlines and more detailing true story..
I Wish the podcast never ended. Saying from my heart. Just loved it. This is a 💎. I normally never comment. Brilliant Work .
You were rich from the very beginning sir. Rich with life…full of life inside…Everything else was a game for you and you enjoyed it to the fullest too with a wonderful co-player !
My story is similar to Dr Velumani. I was able to continue my school education only because of noon-meal scheme in a school started by K. Kamaraj. Currently, I am working in USA as a researcher.
Richest content ever consumed, thankyou Ganesh and team❤
Seriously..best educational and informative podcast ever 🔥🔥 thanks to both of you
Listening to Dr.Velumani is like listening to late Dr.A P J Abdul Kalam ...
Ganesh Bhaiya, this is the best podcast I watched in 2024. Thank you so much for bringing this man to the show, Dr. Velumani Sir is extremely inspiring personality..🙌

Really...the podocast uncovered the intellegence of the guest 🎉🎉
Wow. Wanted to know the technicality in his achievement. Got it through this interview. Very much informative on how one should know A to Z in a business. it's like you are not doing business, you are actually researching it. Well done. Good job.
What a guy! Real deal. Deserves all the respect from everyone and anyone.
I hold frenchise of Thyrocare since 2015 still haven't moved to any other laboratory, also met him personally i still remember his 1 punchline
सर से एक लंबा बाल तोड़ो उसका Nord बनके बड़े पहाड़ पेंडालो आया तो पहाड़ गया तो सिर्फ बाल|
Love you sir you given job to every fresher without asking experience and English Language.
Additionally given Business opportunity for free to sell tests of thyrocare.
He can still make another 1000 cr company from scratch.
Long time ago , perhaps around 2015 only , I remember on of my BrahmaKumar friends who had returned back from usa , introduced to Thyrocare , and he was holding a franchise . It was somewhere in Sion , Mumbai ???
Such a wise and thrill monger man 🫡🫡
What a podcast !!!!!
Think School just levelling up with the podcasts
Ganesh I watched the entire podcast with curiousness on what questions you are going to ask! Amazingly Dr Velumani was also so great & humble to honour your all questions. I loved the way you kept on asking on the first equity partner & value & next equity partner and the value. Tons of Learning!
