Co-founder, True Beacon and Zerodha
Team he supports: Brazil
Brazil has won the most World Cup titles in the history of FIFA, and they revolutionised the game of football. Brazilian players, such as Neymar, also have a more refined touch, having played futsal, football’s dizzying-paced counterpart. Globally, Brazil has popularised football more than any other country. It may be quixotic, but I find many parallels between India’s enthused spirit and Brazil’s love for football.
