I never thought about starting a business. Honestly.No one in my family had ever been in business. So it was never something I imagined for myself. Yet today, more than a decade later, I enjoy calling myself a businessman even more than an artist.How did that happen? To be honest, I still wonder sometimes.One day, Kapil called me to install and demonstrate a Wacom tablet. We had known each other for quite some time, and I had always admired his work.I went to his office, and during our conversation, he suddenly asked me,
"Why don't you start your own business instead of doing a job?"I immediately replied,
"I don't know anything about running a business."

He smiled and said, "Let's start together."I had heard similar offers from many people before. And almost every time, I had said no.
But that day was different. There was something about him. Something in his eyes. A sense of conviction. And for the first time, I said yes.That one conversation changed everything. After that very first meeting, we started Oilpixel.And I want to clarify something here. Kapil is much more than a business partner to me. He is a friend. A mentor. Someone who taught me countless lessons about business, people, and life.Even today, what we value most is not the business. It's the friendship.- Vipul Pandit
