00:00My dear friends, we all need a role model in our lives.
00:09Imagine a young boy faced with the choice between the expectations of his surroundings
00:19and an inner calling.
00:24This narrative is not restricted to any single person, but is a theme we have seen happen
00:32all across history.
00:37Consider the early titans of the U.S. industry such as John D. Rockefeller, Cornelius Vanderbilt
00:49or Andrew Carnegie, who built the infrastructure that shaped the future of the United States,
00:58or our own visionary leaders like J. R. D. Tata, G. D. Birla, and Dhirubhai Ambani, who
01:08played invaluable roles in transforming India's economic landscape.
01:17These leaders did more than just build businesses, they established legacies.
01:27Their journeys were filled with challenges and criticism, yet their guts to tackle the
01:39impossible transformed ordinary ambitions into extraordinary legacies.
01:47They showed that the true measure of a leader is not in their titles, but in the legacies
01:58they leave behind.
02:02And as I stand before you today, I would like to emphasize a few points that often go unspoken.
02:14It is easy to criticize the present, but history as a way of highlighting the profound contributions
02:24of those who dared to break boundaries.
