EPISODE DESCRIPTION
Psychology believes that you start telling yourself you’re passionate at something when you realise you’re better at that something - same logic for talent? How important is it to be talented but also be “relevant” in the industries that seem cool to be in? In this episode of ‘WTF is’ Podcast, we have Kriti Sanon, KL Rahul, & Badshah - who chose career paths which are quite offbeat. Is it sheer talent..? Is it discipline to achieve excellence despite the element of talent? or is it merely good luck? - being at the right place at the right time? #NikhilKamath Co-founder of Zerodha, True Beacon and Gruhas Twitter: https://x.com/nikhilkamathcio/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nikhilkamathcio/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nikhilkamathcio?utm_source=share&utm_campaign=share_via&utm_content=profile&utm_medium=ios_app Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/nikhilkamathcio/ #KritiSanon Acclaimed actress, model, entrepreneur, and producer Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kritisanon/ Twitter: https://x.com/kritisanon Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/OfficialKS10/ #KLRahul Star cricketer, brand ambassador, and entrepreneur Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/klrahul/ Twitter: https://x.com/klrahul YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@KLRahul/videos Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/klrahul/ #Badshah Rapper, singer-songwriter, music producer, and entrepreneur Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/badboyshah/ Twitter: https://x.com/Its_Badshah Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/OfficialBadshah/ Timestamps - 00:00 Introduction 05:25 Kriti’s introduction 08:55 Kriti on perfectionism and validation 14:28 Kriti’s attachment style 17:58 Kriti on being an outsider 27:45 Kriti in 10 years from today 49:20 X factor 57:05 KL Rahul introduction 59:31 Playing multiple sports = Better Athlete? 01:01:25 KL’s love of cricket as a kid 01:03:18 How imp is talent to become a better cricketer? 01:10:15 Importance of data analysis 01:13:22 KL’s early memories with cricket 01:33:47 How does one become a Cricketer? 01:39:48 Badshah’s Introduction 01:50:13 Entrepreneurs & The Next Big Thing 02:01:23 Badshah’s success story 02:14:35 Plan B? 02:29:51 Boys Chat: Dating, Business & Life 02:40:12 How long does it take to build a successful biz in india #nikhilkamath #WTFiswithNikhilKamath

EPISODE SUMMARY
In this episode of Nikhil Kamath, featuring Nikhil Kamath and Kriti Sanon, Ep. #19 | WTF is “Making it” in an Offbeat Career? Nikhil Kamath Ft. Kriti Sanon, Badshah & KL Rahul explores defining “making it” across acting, cricket, music, and business realities Nikhil Kamath hosts Kriti Sanon, KL Rahul, and Badshah to unpack how outsiders break into highly aspirational fields and what actually separates those who “make it.” Kriti describes a childhood shaped by academic pressure, perfectionism, and stage fright—then explains how repeated exposure, curiosity, and asking questions built her confidence and craft. Rahul traces a sports-first upbringing, argues for innate athletic talent (especially hand-eye coordination), and explains how mindset management, spirituality, and reducing social media consumption helped him handle pressure and trolling.
