The 25-year-old young and techie entrepreneur Kritarth Mittal is the founder of the app named “Soshals app” which is a social media growth toolkit. In his recent post on September 3 on his X page he posted his image of being hospitalized due to the hustle culture that led to his penurious health condition. Kritarth Mittal had stated that,

“Hustle culture comes with a cost – some you incur right away and some over decades. Choice is yours, I’m just here to show you the ugly side of it so you don’t get swayed easy. This is me after pulling all-nighters, sleeping for <5-6 hours, no diet plan.”

Hustle culture

Hustle culture is considered to be a double-edged sword because it insists an individual go after their passion or dream with extreme exhaustion with accomplishment, finding one’s worth in their professional success, and giving less importance to human contacts.

The most celebrated CEOs in the world, Elon Musk, Arianna Huffington, Gary Vaynerchuk, Alexis Ohanian, and Bea Dixon have also talked about the toxic hustle culture that gives a notion to young entrepreneurs that there is always greater to aim for in all perspectives in their career by sacrificing their health. This has been followed by some consciously and forced many to follow unconsciously.

Kritarth Mittal, the Mumbai-based entrepreneur confessed about the “hustle culture” which he has been following since his college days. He later realized that he must also take care of himself for the long run in both his personal and professional life. Kritarth Mittal had also said,

“One day I woke up with a really bad headache and experienced recurrent vomiting. Now my body has started to remind me that I am not 20 anymore. I’ll be setting up a routine and do my best to follow it. I am old now and I have to accept it. Gone are the college days when pulling all-nighters was cool”. 

Kritarth’s post created a huge debate among young entrepreneurs while many other techies have already spoken up about blown-out lifestyles with an inadequate diet, giving lesser importance to personal care.
