Zerodha’s Nikhil and Nithin Kamath sing Kishore Kumar classics with Shaan, internet says ‘Money can buy happiness’

When work and wealth blend with melody, the result looks something like the Kamath brothers’ moment of joy. Zerodha co-founders Nikhil and Nithin Kamath were seen enjoying a karaoke session at home, singing along with popular playback singer Shaan. The video, shared by their mother Revathi Kamath on Facebook, captured the brothers performing Kishore Kumar’s timeless hits ‘Yeh Shaam Mastani’ and ‘Pyar Deewana Hota Hai’ with a live band.

A Family Evening Filled With Music

The video showcased a relaxed and cheerful atmosphere as the Kamath brothers—known for their sharp business acumen—took a break from the boardroom to explore their musical side. Shaan joined in with his signature charm, harmonizing with the duo as their mother recorded the performance. The camaraderie and effortless joy of the evening were evident, turning what could have been a private family moment into a celebration of music and togetherness.

Revathi Kamath, who has a deep-rooted connection with music, shared the clip. Born in the cultural town of Shringeri, she grew up surrounded by art and tradition and was trained in classical Veena under maestro Venkatagiriyappa. Her lifelong devotion to music clearly reflects in her sons’ ease and enthusiasm while singing.

Netizens Celebrate the ‘Musical Billionaires’

The Facebook video drew hundreds of reactions, with viewers admiring both the brothers’ performance and their grounded personalities. One user commented, “Who told money can’t buy happiness”, while another joked, “I can see Bengaluru boys struggling with Hindi lyrics.” Others praised their singing, calling them “multi-talented brothers” and “precious stones of Bengaluru.”



Several users also cheered Revathi Kamath for inspiring her sons, with one comment reading, “Awesome! Nithin is truly interested in singing, looks like! Sur, taal in place.” Another added, “Like mother, like sons… multi-talented!” The warmth and admiration in the responses highlighted how audiences appreciate seeing successful entrepreneurs embracing simple pleasures like music.

More Than Just Numbers

While the Kamath brothers have built one of India’s most successful financial platforms, this glimpse into their personal lives offered a refreshing contrast to their business persona. Many social media users described the performance as “heartwarming” and “pure happiness,” reinforcing the idea that success isn’t just about wealth—it’s about finding joy in everyday moments.

As one fan aptly summed it up, “Mom’s magic.” For Revathi Kamath and her sons, that magic seems to lie in the perfect mix of melody, family, and a reminder that even billionaires can have their carefree karaoke nights.



Beyond their musical moment, Nikhil and Nithin Kamath continue to make their mark in India’s business and philanthropic circles. Through ventures like True Beacon and Rainmatter, the brothers have supported sustainable startups, financial literacy, and environmental initiatives. Their growing public presence—whether through podcasts, interviews, or candid social media posts—shows a more personal side of entrepreneurship, where creativity, wellness, and balance play as much of a role as success in the stock market.

Meanwhile, apart from being the proud mother of two of India’s most successful entrepreneurs, Revathi Kamath has carved her own inspiring path. A self-made businesswoman, she started with a small flower stall in Bengaluru’s Jayanagar, which eventually grew into Calyx, a reputed event management company. Over the years, she has organised high-profile events for leading brands like HP, MICO, and BOSCH at prestigious venues including The Leela Palace and Windsor Manor.

She has also been part of environmental initiatives, leading tree plantation campaigns and lake restoration efforts, including the successful rejuvenation of Somanahalli Lake, which improved local water resources. Revathi has also contributed to education by adopting schools across Karnataka, upgrading infrastructure, and introducing digital classrooms with corporate support.
