What Indians Googled After Watching Nikhil Kamath’s Podcast Teaser With Elon Musk

Nikhil Kamath, Indian entrepreneur, self-made billionaire, and co-founder of Zerodha, may have just broken the Internet with a 39-second podcast teaser drop on Friday on social media platforms X and Instagram. His next guest and perhaps the most-anticipated episode on his already popular podcast happens to be the rocketman, Elon Musk. If you need a refresher, Musk, who owns SpaceX, Tesla, and X, has a wealth of $342 billion according to the recent Forbes Billionaires List and is en route to becoming the world’s first trillionaire.

Seeing Musk seated opposite Kamath came as a surprise to one and all, and people had several thoughts.

“Is This Real?”

The knee-jerk reaction to Kamath’s meeting with Musk was that of utter disbelief. The 39-second teaser video shared

by the entrepreneur has already clocked 3.7 million views since it was uploaded on X on Friday evening.

“Nikhil Kamath’s podcast is now far ahead of any other podcast in India. He does not overdo them in terms of the number of podcasts he does and he manages to get the guests no other Indian podcaster can get (sic),” wrote one user on X.

“Netflix: we are releasing Stranger Things
Nikhil: I’ll release an even stranger thing.”

“We got Elon Musk on WTF before GTA 6,” chimed another.

“be Nikhil Kamath
> drops out at 14
> co-founds Zerodha with brother in 2010
> becomes India’s largest retail broker, worth $2.6 billion by 2025
> youngest self-made billionaire in India
> launches WTF podcast in 2024
> gets PM Modi for podcast debut, Modi literally never does podcasts, also lands Bill Gates & AR Rahman
> now gets Elon Musk on the podcast
> 10th grade dropout interviewing richest man alive (sic).”

Hilariously, when an X user asked Musk’s Grok, the AI couldn’t verify the authenticity of the video: “No, it appears to be an AI-generated video for humor or as a teaser. There’s no confirmed real interview between Nikhil Kamath and Elon Musk based on available sources. Fun concept, though!”

But the questions did not stop there.
