Sabeer Bhatia on Failure and Innovation in India

Sabeer Bhatia, who created Hotmail, talked about how people in India often judge others based on their past successes.

He mentioned that many people ask him what he has done since Hotmail, which shows that society is very focused on following traditional paths.

Bhatia believes that people should be encouraged to try new things and not be afraid of failing.

He thinks that India needs more experimentation and innovation, and that the fear of failure is holding people back.

He shared his thoughts on a podcast to inspire others to take risks and create new things.
