It was May 15, 2022. Riding his RR car through Hyderabad, Raj was currently spending a life of absolute riches. He was listed on FROBE'S last year as one of the most influential people in the world. Despite only being 42, His net worth was over $6 billion. And all that money was part of his empire that he built himself from the rags. While going through the city of Hyderabad, he remembered being on the edges of these roads asking people passing by for jobs 20 years ago. Not a single person looked at his face then, but after 20 years, everyone was all over him.
He was now the Youth Icon of the Country.
During an interview, he was asked about his success secret. He replied "Dhanamulam Idham Jagath(Jagath (Money is the root of the world). I just dug around the tree until I found it. It requires patience and perseverance. Don't ask for money for free and don't give money for free. Respect the money, it will come to you itself."
But he hated when anyone asked for his help or a donation. people called him arrogant and miser behind his back but there was a reason for that. When he was young, his family was semi-rich. He had a colour tv when most of his friends were listening to the radio. His dad was a high government official. He was a good man, always helping others. But he was falsely accused of corruption charges and spent 2 years in jail. Although most of his colleagues knew he was innocent, they didn't help him. they were all people his dad helped.
Because of his father's state, Raj stopped his education in the middle and came out for job hunting. Although what his dad had done were good deeds, when he lost his job there was nothing left for them to rely on. His father was a respected man in the society. But after the accusations and arrest but after that, he couldn't walk around in the city anymore. So, Hehe went back to his village and lived there by opening a small grocery store in the old building he owned.
But unlike his father, Raj wanted to study and have a good job. He wanted his father to have the same glory he had when Raj was young. That's why he worked hard day and night, doing all kinds of odd jobs just to make ends meet. He realized that to make something of himself, he had to become financially independent. And so, he started his journey towards success. He started working as a salesman in a small store and slowly worked his way up to become the manager of the store. During this time, he learned a lot about the art of selling and how to negotiate with customers.
He then went on to start his business selling products on the streets. He would go from door to door selling his products, which included clothes, shoes, and accessories. He saved every penny he earned and invested it wisely in stocks and real estate. His hard work and perseverance paid off as he started making much money through his investments.
However, Raj's success did not come without its fair share of challenges. He faced much resistance and criticism from people who didn't believe in him. But he never let their words discourage him. Instead, he used them as motivation to work even harder.
Over time, Raj's business grew, and he started hiring employees to help him manage it. He soared to the sky with his innovative ideas and grip on business. Now with over 12 companies across the world, he made his dream come true. Thinking all this made him proud of himself.
As Raj drove through the city, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his chest. He tried to ignore it at first, thinking it was just a muscle cramp, but it quickly worsened. Raj realized that something was seriously wrong, but before he could even pull over his car, he lost consciousness.
When he opened his eyes, he found himself lying in a bed in an unfamiliar room. Everything around him looked old and dilapidated, and the room had a musty smell. Confused and disoriented, Raj tried to sit up, but a sharp pain shot through his body. He looked down at his hands and realized that they were not his own. They belonged to a young boy.
Raj was shocked and perplexed. He wondered how he had ended up in this strange place and the body of a young boy. He looked around the room and saw a calendar on the wall. The date read April 12, 1966. Raj was stunned. Had he time-travelled?
Raj quickly realized that he had somehow transmigrated into the body of a boy named Vijay, who lived in a small village in Andhra Pradesh.
