Watch how circumstances force Subhash to come to terms that he no longer is influential and no one will come forward to assist him; Shankar is abducted and disappears, and the one who has hired to kill him is none other than his son – Vishnu.

He had to kick the doors open or cajole them to open. He did both and would not take no for an answer. And that’s because he never knew the word ‘no’. Despite all barriers, he started his own company called Shakti Trading in a 350 sq feet room, with one telephone, one table and three chairs. Forty years on, Shakti Corporation became the first Indian company to enter the Forbes top 500 lists. People asked him how this happened and he said think big, think ahead and think fast.
