Residents of India’s Silicon Valley, Bengaluru, were in for a surprise when they went for an activity in the city’s Cubbon Park on Sunday. In what was supposed to be a simple ‘Urban Foraging Walk’ in the green haven, the city’s residents spotted billionaire entrepreneur Nikhil Kamath and got the chance to interact with him.
The ‘mushroom walk’ organised by Nuvedo, a health and wellness company based in Bengaluru, attracted individuals from across the city including the Zerodha co-founder.
Sharing his experience of meeting Kamath, entrepreneur Aymen Aslam, in a post on social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter, said, “Hung out with Nikhil Kamath today Fr I was having a shit week. My gf dragged me to this thing called a “mushroom walk” in Cubbon park. Guess who also joined in?”
Describing the experience as a ‘peak Bengaluru’ moment, Aslam said that the businessman and podcast host, Kamath, came alone to the event and was ‘super non-chalant’ during it.

Aslam in other posts said that he almost cancelled the whole plan, but was pleasantly surprised that he went through with it. The post quickly went viral and Netizens found the whole incident wholesome. One of the users said, "Never cancelling cubbon plans ever again. Sunday morning dedicated to cubbon now." While others asked how to become a part of the 'mushroom walk' so they can experience the thrill as well.
Notably, Kamath dedicated one episode of his podcast, ‘WTF is’, to talk about climate change and its impacts.
