’No need to work till 3 am’: Swiggy CEO bats for work-life balance: ‘Mar jaoge kisi din ye…’; leaves internet impressed

Amid the constant glorification of the ‘hustle-culture’, several Indian CEOs, including Infosys co-founder Narayana Murthy, have encouraged people to work overtime to excel at the office. Rejecting the idea as ‘complete nonsense’, Swiggy CEO Rohit Kapoor, has highlighted the importance of ‘hustle-culture’ and questioned the unnecessary need to be ‘crazy’ for work.

“Kyu burn kar rahe ho midnight oil, kisne bola hai? Ghar jao, dog hai, biwi hai, girlfriend hai, Bache hain, Kuch toh karo… (Why are you burning midnight oil? Go to home for your dog, wife, girlfriend, kids. Do something)” Kapoor said at an event organised by YourStory. His video from the event has gone viral on social media with several netizens praising him for acting “normal”.
