In a recent interview with Varun Mayya, founder of Aeos company, Google's Sundar Pichai offered insights into his personal preferences and thoughts on success. Pichai, known for his strategic leadership at one of the world's leading tech companies, shared candidly about his favorite Indian dishes and his perspective on achieving success.

Favorite Indian Foods Across Metro Cities
During the interview, Pichai discussed his travel habits and culinary preferences, highlighting his favorite Indian dishes from different metro cities. Pichai, known for his diplomatic approach, mentioned his favorite dishes from Bengaluru, Delhi, and Mumbai.


"When it’s Bengaluru, I will probably get a Dosa. It’s my favourite food. If it’s Delhi, Chola Bhatura. And if it’s Mumbai, I’ll do a Pav Bhaji," Pichai revealed, reflecting his diverse taste in Indian cuisine.

Pichai's Philosophy of Success
Beyond discussions on food, Pichai delved into his philosophy of success, emphasizing the importance of understanding concepts deeply. Drawing inspiration from the iconic motor scene in the Bollywood movie "3 Idiots," Pichai articulated his views on breaking free from the competitive exam mindset, particularly relevant for aspirants eyeing opportunities in leading tech companies like Facebook (now Meta), Amazon, Apple, Netflix, and Google (FAANG).

"I think real success comes from understanding things in a deeper way," Pichai shared, echoing the sentiments portrayed in the movie. He elaborated on the significance of grasping concepts beyond surface-level understanding, drawing a parallel with the scene where Aamir Khan's character is asked to define a motor.

"...tempted to go back to the movie 3 Idiots or something like that. And like, you know there’s a scene in there where they ask Aamir Khan the definition of a motor….there’s a version you just describe what a motor is. And there’s a version where you actually understand what a motor is," Pichai remarked, underscoring the essence of genuine comprehension in achieving success.
