From starting India’s first entertainment ticketing platform to organising one of the world’s biggest music acts, Coldplay in Ahmedabad, Ashish has never followed the crowd. He opens up about how he built BookMyShow, evolved it from a ticketing platform to the go-to entertainment platform for Indians when it comes to experiences, dealt with controversies, and why being told “no” only fuels him more.We spoke about everything that goes behind a mega concert, flights, hotels, logistics, stadiums, politics, and the Coldplay ticketing drama that sparked massive headlines. Ashish also talks about building India's Lollapalooza, how his team picks artists who actually connect with Indian fans and how the black market for ticketing is rising in India. He also breaks down the real business of entertainment, what brings in money, what doesn’t, and where the industry is headed next.In the last segment, he shares the biggest challenge of his life during the pandemic, why entrepreneurs in India are misunderstood, and how a "secret society" keeps him grounded. There’s also a powerful take on what India’s next trillion-dollar opportunity really looks like and why he thinks it shouldn’t just be limited to AI.Subscribe for more such conversations!Follow Ashish Hemrajani Here:Instagram: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/fafsters/⁠X: ⁠https://x.com/fafsters⁠LinkedIn: ⁠linkedin.com/in/ashishhemrajani⁠About Raj ShamaniRaj Shamani is an Entrepreneur at heart that explains his expertise in Business Content Creation & Public Speaking.
