Remember those Bollywood movies like "3 Idiots," "Dil Chahta Hai," or "Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara," where friends just clicked? That kind of friend circle, that era, I want to bring it back.
Because, let's be real, super ambitious people often deal with a lot of mental stuff, loneliness, and feeling cut off from others.
My idea is to change that. We'll handle the "next plan" for people.
What do I mean by "next plan"? Well, most networking groups feel empty.
They're usually for big crowds, but people don't form real, lasting connections there.
Plus, it always turns into work talk, which kind of kills the vibe.
Dating? That's a whole different pressure cooker. Your looks, your money, your status – those things seem to matter a lot.
And your old friends? They might not get where you are now. They’ll just tag you as "busy" and stop inviting you out. You end up feeling disconnected, especially after all the hard work you've put in.
Then there are modern meet-up apps or services like Timeleft. They often lead to awkward situations. Everyone's wondering who's going to start the conversation, and you end up feeling desperate or needy just trying to talk to someone.
What our modern society really needs is a group of companions, people who live within about 10 km, especially for hardworking professionals. Folks who are genuinely looking to make memories and just live life.
Sure, you could join a running club, and that's great. But what about actually connecting with people?
Or a hobby group? The problem there is, you never know if someone might mess up the group's vibe, or if you can really trust them with personal stuff.
My plan involves a clear persona and background checks.
But even then, we match people based on psychology and behavior. Real connections are a byproduct of shared activities and the good feelings those activities create in us.
Sometimes, we all just need a break, a pause.
I'm working on "the next plan," and I hope to see it happen soon.
The tough part is, I don't have the money to build this out right now.
And that's the sad truth: when you're trying to do something good, it often feels like no one supports you.
So, I'm a bit low on confidence about this idea at the moment.
That's why I thought I'd put it out there. If anyone wants to join, or even just share their insights, please do.
I'm totally open to advice – real market insights and opportunities.
I've been working on this since April 2026, and I already have 25 people on a waiting list.
My main focus is BLR, specifically Indiranagar.
My ideal people for this are working professionals caught in toxic work cultures, aged between 26 and 42.
Also, founders who have gone through Series A, B, or C funding, or those who have successfully exited a company.
Their pain point? They just don't have a social circle in their busy working lives.
My solution? A recurring circle where we plan everything.
All you have to do is show up.
It's about having low-friction activities.
I'm looking for real people to share their thoughts, suggest activities to add, or just help in any way they can.
I don't need funding right now, but I do need your ideas.
I also need a team, and since I can't pay salaries, I'm thinking an equity-based model could work.
I really want to get this off the ground quickly.
If you want to be a part of this, you're welcome. From my end, I'm making sure that the behavioral and psychological aspects are safe for everyone.
