Zerodha founder Nithin Kamath’s response to an employee’s praise goes viral online. In the exchange, the employee comments on looks, and Kamath replies in a light, humorous tone.
Several outlets highlight that the moment appears especially entertaining because the profile or bio content involved the wrong person’s photograph. Instead of Nithin’s picture, the bio features an image of his brother, Nikhil, which adds to the confusion and amusement. The incident spreads primarily through social media screenshots and reposts.
While the core elements—an employee praising looks and Kamath responding—remain consistent, different posts and captions emphasize different details of the back-and-forth, including how the incorrect photo was used in the bio. Overall, outlets present the event as an internet reaction rather than a formal workplace incident, focusing on the humor of the exchange and the mistaken identity aspect.
