“I was 27 years old when I was given the opportunity to interview the Prime Minister of our country,” Ms Mehta wrote in a LinkedIn post yesterday. “The interview was about 22 minutes- 22 minutes which changed the course of my career,” she said.
She explained that the interview with PM Modi received a lot of hate on social media and taught her that her work should speak for itself.
“What followed [the interview] There was recognition for our work, yes, but also a whirlwind of hatred (the cover of a popular youth magazine put us on the cover with a scathing headline), accusations and a lot of one-sided slander,” wrote Ms. Mehta. It was at this point in my life that I learned that silence is golden and handicraft should always speak.”
The Humans of Bombay founder ended her short post by saying that she would share more about her experience interviewing the prime minister at a later date, but revealed an interesting point before signing on. “I’ll share my interview experience a second time, but the first thing he asked me was, ‘Kem Cho Mehta Ji?'” she wrote, adding a smiley face emoji at the end.
