Bhavish is one of those successful entrepreneurs. Bhavish is the co-founder of the OLA cabs. So first of all, let us tell you about him.

Bhavish’s father’s name is Naresh Kumar Aggarwal and his mother’s name is Usha Aggarwal. His family resides in Ludhiana, Punjab. At first his parents believed that he has gone crazy and thought he was becoming some kind of travel agent. Eventually, things started changing and as his business started growing, his parents’ belief in him started rising.
Bhavish Aggarwal is happily married with his longtime girlfriend Rajlakshmi Aggarwal. Prior to his marriage, she was Bhavish Aggarwal girlfriend for many years. Bhavish Aggarwal marriage happened in a closed ceremony where only his immediate family members and close friends were invited.
Bhavish Aggarwal was in the middle of a journey, so what happened when the idea struck his mind. The driver stopped the car in the middle of the journey and demanded a renegotiation of what Bhavish was paying. After being refused, he proceeded to abandon him en route his destination. This is when he realized how his plight was probably similar to a lot of customers across the country who were looking for a quality cab service, but ended up with a one that stood them up, arrived and dropped them off late or did not stick to their promises, and came with drivers that were nightmares behind the wheels.
On December 2010, when he was joined with the co-founder Ankit Bhati in his start-up journey. Ankit Bhati has dual degree. He has B. Tech and M. Tech dergees, both from IIT Bombay. Bhavish is the CEO of the company and Ankit Bhati is the CTO of the company. Instead of whining and complaining about the problems he faced, Bhavish just went ahead and solved it. Something we should learn to do in our lives.
