23:25 Don't show me you're working, Show me the work. Well said Gaurav💯
So cool to watch the interviewer being interviewed 🥹
Gaurav's a treat to watch in anything he is in. Probably the most entertaining yet insightful guest so far!
It's always a delight to see Gaurav... He has this knack of making you feel included in the conversation
Gaurav is indeed the smartest person in the room, always! And Varun just brought out the best from him. So so freakin insightful.
Gaurav’s command over the English language is absolutely effortless. It’s a pleasure listening to him.
Wow this is interesting
Always love this man.
Brings a great joy to listen cricket stuffs from him.
Some guest requests:
1) Vir Sanghvi

3) The Kamath Brothers
4) Tanmay Bhatt
5) Kumar Varun, Rahul Subramanian
I loved this talk Varun. Thank you for bringing this to all of us. I find your podcasts really engrossing.
Loved the way Gaurav sumed up the meaning of lazy ambitious person in just a line. Always great listening to this guy. Stories, entertainment, perspectives without being preachy, all punched into one. ❤🥂
Gourav Kapoor is a sweetheart. I love whatever he does in whatever way. Thank you for the podcast sir. Lovely...
Was thinking somedays back that someone shud interview Gaurav kapoor and here it is ❤❤you earned a subscriber just by inviting him😅
I have a real gripe with Gaurav and I’d be glad if it can reach him.
Why Gaurav is never on cricbuzz for test matches? Not even the marquee ones.
It would be lovely to have Gaurav doing shows on the Ashes going on right now which has been enthralling af and drama, oh boy.
It is proper GK territory to do shows on. He must consider it.
Excellent point.. Totally agree
Unfortunately, most of the Indian audience don't follow the Ashes that much. We are a small bunch, and they wanna keep it exclusive for English and the Aussie viewers. Maybe that's why they do that with Adam and Michael V.
He hates Test & ODI's (except for WC) He had said it openly many times that he loves working for T20's esp. IPL. Also ODI & Test asks for more time with less pay... So yeah.. Practical.
Gaurav Kapoor acted in few movies as well. One of them is my all time favourite suspense thriller.. "Koi Hai" 29:13
Who remembers extra innings T20
sometimes the intellect of people truly takes me by surprise
Amazing podcast, always nice to hear GK. But why did you only kept 2 stories in the last section?
Very nice❤😊
Gaurav Kapur is a Mumbai guy 😮
Great listening to GK!
Varun & gaurav I felt like to watching it over again and again
Just because there is no filter for the audience,I fell in love with him 😅
GK is OG and this chat was FAB
you can do second part w him, just on cricket! Jsut on cricket, like go in details of famous cricketer, and the likes of new age or the old age character, he's been very close to them. So he knows them vivid fully
This conversation in hindi will be cherry on the cake 😊 in English it is good
Rgv impression😂😂😂
