Ola CEO Bhavish Aggarwal has supported Infosys co-founder Narayan Murthy's advice to work 70 hours. In a podcast interview with ANI, Aggarwal said that he himself works 20 hours a day, every day, throughout the week. This is not the first time Aggarwal has expressed his views on increasing working hours. He had earlier also supported Murthy's idea on social media.

What did the OLA CEO say?

When asked about Murthy's advice to work 70 hours a week, Agarwal said, "I should work even harder, and I am completely in agreement with his (Murthy's) advice to youngsters. I think he had to come back because of the state of his company, right? After coming back, he contributed a lot and pulled the company out of losses."

He said- I am a fan of Steve Jobs...

When asked if he is an Apple fan, the Ola CEO replied that he was and still is a huge fan of Steve Jobs. He also said that Steve Jobs has been his 'inspiration since childhood'. 'I use all Apple products and truly believe that they are products with excellent engineering and design.' 

During the interview, Agarwal discussed a number of topics, including the importance of supply chain management, India's data being sold to foreign countries, and the startup boom in India. Interestingly, he coined the term 'techno-colonialism'. He meant the problem of today where India's data goes to the big data centers of foreign companies. There this data is processed, and then it is sold back to India, that too in dollars.
