I am Amrit, your creative, funny, insightful storyteller. Companies, non-profits, statups, schools etc. hire me to tell their stories (mostly via video) or the stories of who they impact, usually so that they can sell more, raise funds, attract people to work for them, spread awareness etc. And then, I also find amazing people doing amazing things and they don't hire me as such, but I tell their stories, well, because their stories deserve to be told. You can help me fund such stories by financing it through www.patreon.com/vatsap
I come from an IIT / business consulting background but after few years of great time at corporate job decided to take a break and became a wedding photographer. I still shoot at weddings across India. There is something beautiful about creating art from weddings. There's something beautiful about creating art from anything!
I m from Bangalore, but I like the place and it is in no way lesser to any cosmopolitan cities in Pan-India. First of, Why would this clip start with all negative and derogatory highlights & comments about Chennai? If people really don't like Chennai, why can't they get the hell out of Chennai? Few of them were irrational. The girl with black T-shirt speaks sense. One genius says people don't speak Hindi. Yes, they don't, do North Indians speak Tamil in North India? So don't expect Tamils in Tamil Nadu to speak your language. Highly idiotic! One idiot talks about Idli, yes, it's South Indian's one if the favourite foods, like whatever is yours. One Miss World says Stereotypes! Rest of India is partially racist towards south. Not Chennai alone. The most funniest of all is like Chennai is dirty what the heck! I failed to understand the purpose of this video. Doesn't make any sense.
The city has a charm of its own. You want a place that gets you a seat, traffic is less. You have a beach, super tasty fish, beef, mutton besides the usual idli dosa(I). People underplay their weallth and prefer to keep a low profile.
I was watching his playlist on the You Tube through NPTL program to improve my English Spoken skills. I was so deep into the video that I had just forgot that I was in an Online Mode and when Sir asked did you finish the reading my Book "Better Spoken English" I search for the book and I found this video... Really I got tears in my eyes after watching sir retired since the playlist was recorded in the year 2012 may be and all of sudden I saw him with bread 😅 I was really astonished by his work. Can anyone give his postal address I want an autograph from him ❤ and I am happy to get his hand written copy as a reply. Thanks for the video.
As a Chennaite living in the States I can vouch for one thing. People are very honest. In Jan of this year 2024, dropped my wallet in front of a snack/savory shop. After going back home realized wallet missing. Had the intuition that someone would have found it on the street and would have handed it to the shop owner.. Had 4000 indian rupees and a bunch of credit cards. Needless to say the the shop owner returned everything intact and gave the number of the guy who found my wallet. Of course I thanked that guy! This is the same throughout the State. People are very kind and embrace and accept people of other denominations!!
Chennai is quite hot and humid, no doubt but it's actually cool after September and rains in November and December. Thing is it's not as cosmopolitan as, say, Bangalore. Chennai is liberal and open-minded with people striving to preserve their culture, in my experience. I would say Chennai is kinda the Eastern Europe of India.
So is it bad that even in Bangalore I can't get a date even though its more cosmopolitan? I am a 23 year old guy living in Bangalore but born in Siliguri in West Bengal and never had a girlfriend and only been on 1 first date many months ago at the age of 22 and then a month later hanged out with my female friend, hugged only 2 girls in person and still never had my first kiss. I am studying MBA now and in my University too had crush on this girl for 7 months who is also 23 now but 5 months ago got crush on another prettier girl(sadly she wasn't into me either but she was the 2nd girl I hugged in person) in the same University so my previous crush stopped talking to me and I miss her. I had a summer break from University for 3 months and today finally new semester started for us and I literally initiated conversation with 3 girls in my University who are MBA students too and within 21-23 age range and I had a long enough conversation with one of them who too was comfortable enough to talk to me but idk about my chances as I look like a nerd in my glasses and she is really pretty too. But it was a big change and improvement for me as I had always been shy near girls and in my high school days I completely avoided talking with girls as I was bullied a lot in school and continued being shy further too in my undergrad and even in my MBA too few months ago, I was still shy to initiate conversation with girls and even though I could talk with my crushes, there was still some nervousness here and there but today I went out of my comfort zone and talked with not 1 not 2 but 3 girls. Thats only because I initiated conversation with 3 expat women in my city Bangalore and they were white Caucasian women (yes foreigners do come to Bangalore as expats as its one of the major metropolitan city of India and popular for its IT(tech). First one was a French woman with whom I talked near my University almost 5 months ago who was within 22-26 age range and the next was a German woman 2 months ago and then yesterday again I saw another white blonde lady who looked to be within 26-30 age range and probably from Germany or maybe some Scandinavian country too and I waved my hand at her as she was walking and smiled at her saying her Hi and she too waved her hand back at me with a bit of a smile but couldn't have a conversation as the cab that I booked had arrived but would love to meet her again. So yeah I am happy that finally I can talk with women now whether Indian or foreigner but sadly it took me 23 years to get rid of my shyness.
Hey im a ad film director just started directing small ads for small brands i wanted to know my commercials i don't know what to set my fees, right now working at budget baseses
Also try sharing your real life stories , your childhood , colleage ,professional life and current life, then people will connect with you and making the videos on general topics will make it hard for audience to connect unless you know the person
thank you for bringing this up. I was not aware of the Hedgehog's dilemma. However upon reading up on it on Wiki, even when I see some similarity, they are slightly different. Energy Rising is a great book and may be just check it out?
Hi Amrit and princy. My name is Amrit as well. We are planning to move to goa soon. We currently live in south of the UK. My husbands heritage is from Goa so its the first choice when thinking of moving back to India. We do hope that it will be a positive step for our young family however time will tell. We want to move for indian people they are quite warm and friendly unless the Uk where no one want to talk. Also weather is a factor and our elders who will need us in future. We want to be close to them. ❤
I am glad to note that you are curious. A lot happened in the last 60 odd years. There are several books that you can read to understand that. Just ask chatGPT to recommend few books. all the best. keep up the curiosity.
South Korea's small population helped them to make regulations and policy changes extremely easy. In the case of China, they literally destroyed thousands of hectares of land and uprooted millions of people out of their homes. I guess you want that to happen in India. I think services will push our economy up, and that takes time. Primarily we will have a sustained growth unlike China whose domestic consumption levels are so horrendously low that theur export driven economy that became the biggest on term of GDP PPP, now is crumbling. Edit: If you do take the time to reply, please do not give a close ended comment of thank you, rather I would I like to know your views on our economy.
Sad, would love the opposite views on our current situation to get stronger. Stronger opposition will spur on only the best decisions to go forward. Hopefully, taking the pseudo high road ends soon.
@@ameyjoshi938 acknowledge your sadness. you want 'opposite' views to get stronger. because stronger opposite views will help in making best decisions to go forward. and you think my comment indicates a "pseudo high road" - so that makes you sad. and you hope that your opposite views, don't attract such responses. thanks for sharing this.
Sometimes not everything is a fight. Sometimes things can be done to just want to have a discussion. The current social scenario has put me in an echo chamber of just good parts of the economy. Being an economic student I thought I would get some points from the other side. In hindsight, my first message was a bit provocative. I apologise about that. I get you cannot have a full blown discussion with every member of your comment section. Would be good to have a bit more elaborative videos going on.
@@ameyjoshi938 thanks - do check out my non-shorts on more elaborative videos. and if you are interested in reading more about economy - happy to share references for books that you can pick up.
South Korea was heavily funded by US, as was Japan. Coming to China, they opened up their market in 1978, when they got their first SEZ. The Govt invested in every manufacturing company, whereas India suffered from License Raj and huge Corruption. We got our first SEZ in mid 1990s, almost 20 years late. It is now a catch-up game we are playing. I hope the Freebies and Divide-and-Rule parties don't take over India again.
@@Snorlax108 thanks for sharing how you think I sound like (though I think you meant to say how my words sound like - because how I sound like, is better seen in the video) :D
@@Snorlax108 thank you. and yes, I do think my replies could look like they are AI generated because probably that's what happens when one tries to be neutral and not get emotionally affected by strangers commenting on my videos! :) though it would be cool if there were an AI tool to actually drop answers on my behalf- would be worth trying. thanks for making me think of exploring one! (though it's possible youtube bans such tools at some point, if they do exist).
Its difficult. Chinese are ethnic han chinese. There is trust between them. Same with korea - majority Koreans. India- Marathi, Gujrati, Punjabi, Kannadiga, etc-- No unity , No Trust, Nothing common linguistically or culture etc
@@AmritVatsa china was mostly communist back then. Mao communist ideology was common. It was Deng Xiao Ping which opened china for western world. The state controlled labour, capital and land. Forced labour and china entering WTO in 2000 increased Per capita of China at an astronomical pace.
Bro the key is distribution of wealth. The fact in South Korea and China is that the wealth distribution is absolutely skewed. The best situation is more even distribution of wealth even with a lower per capita income.
No I don't accept this wealth distribution point of view because even of you say that the wealth is concentrated with the rich.... Even then more money coming into the country would create more opportunity, infrastructure and facilities for the poor public..... The rich after all do business and live here only
