In this latest episode of Figuring Out, we are in conversation with the Mafias of the gaming world in India - Animesh AKA Thug and Tanmay Singh AKA Sc0ut.

Being the pioneer of E-sports in India, Animesh & Scout share with us their journey of making it to the top in the field of gaming. Animesh explains how he was the first one to pay a salary to gamers in India and what made him give up on his CA & CFA career over gaming.

Scout shares his experience of gaming tournaments and paints a picture of how India is perceived internationally when it comes to gaming and they explain what is the scope of the field in terms of money, position & sustainability.


With so much that he has already achieved and so much that they are yet to explore, we have gone deeper in conversations discussing everything under the umbrella of metaverse & virtual world. So, make sure you watch the episode till the end!
