When Vijay Shekhar Sharma was inspired by Jim Morrison!

Paytm founder Vijay Shekhar Sharma has been a constant at industry forums for some time now. His presence on a panel is much looked forward to, not just because of the successful entrepreneur tag, but also because of the candour and exuberance he brings to the table.

The panel discussion that he was a part of at the recent Nasscom event was no different. And as always, Sharma lived up to his reputation, mixing up playfulness with practicality,being frank and funny. The audience was hooked. He even ended with a flourish, quoting lines from music greats. “O great creator of being, grant us one more hour to perform our art and perfect our lives,” by The Doors and “No eternal reward will forgive us now for wasting the dawn,” by Jim Morrison.

In case anyone wondered what and who inspires the maverick.
