Zerodha founder Nithin Kamath recently shared how his visit to Europe made him feel everything in those countries was "a cut, copy, and paste with very small differences” in comparison to India’s rich diversity.

On X platform (formerly Twitter), he elaborated that India is "more like a continent than a country," mentioning the huge contrasts in languages, food, and culture across its 28 states. Kamath said even the differences “within each state is nuts”. 

The Zerodha billionaire’s post resonated with many on social media, sparking conversations about India’s cultural diversity and its underlying strengths. 

"Every time I think of this, I am amazed at how the country actually came together," he tweeted.

Netizens respond

An X user commented, “India, a nation formed by its people, stands strong. Our elders instilled in us values of respect and love. In contrast, the West is a world apart from our beloved country. We, the people of India, may be seen as naive, quick to forgive and forget.”

Another wrote, “This is why we call ourself #IncredibleIndia.”

A third user said, "That’s such an interesting perspective! It’s true that India’s diversity is unmatched – every state feels like a different world in itself, from languages to traditions. It’s incredible how such a vast and varied country has managed to come together, both culturally and historically. Truly a testament to its unity in diversity."

However, another individual remarked, “Well, we have uniformity of air pollution, bad roads and garbage lined streets.”
