Narayana Murthy recently addressed the students of St. Xavier's College, Mumbai. The co-founder of Infosys was addressing students advising them to choose role models wisely.
He listed the requirements of a role model which would help the student make the correct decision. He emphasized that an entrepreneur not only has to have revolutionary ideas but should also have a youth connect in addition to undertaking initiatives for the welfare of the society. While listing requirements, a fellow Banglorean who fits the bill perfectly came to his mind.
Narayana Murthy was heard regarding Bollywood actress Deepika Padukone as a perfect role model for today's youth. Deepika suffices the needs of a perfect role model as listed by Mr. Murthy, which includes being a revolutionary and being legally, ethically and socially responsible.
"I am very, very proud of Deepika," he was heard saying, "She is in a glamorous world and she has brought so much joy to literally a billion Indians," he added further. Deepika, you listening?
