    The pioneer who gate-crashed his way to the top

    Subhash Chandra, the promoter of Essel/ Zee Group, is an unlikely mogul. Hailing from a small town in Haryana, where his family ran grain mills, Chandra has been a perennial outsider, repeatedly aiming high and breaking into businesses where he was considered an interloper.

    Starting work as a teen to pay off family debts, Chandra had to rely on bluff, gumption and sheer hard toil to turn things around. A little bit of luck and political patronage saw him make a fortune in rice exports to the erstwhile USSR.

    Just outstanding is all I can say

    Success is just a bi-product of hard work, The Z Factor is indeed a masterpiece by Dr. Subhash Chandra. I haven’t come across such a marvelous person in my life, who stood strong to achieve whatever he wanted in life. Despite many failures, he continued to innovate and one day just changed the whole outlook of the television industry. No words can describe his efforts that he has put in to make it happen. This book is worth a read.

    Ambition booster

    I would call Dr. Subhash Chandra’s The Z Factor an ‘ambition booster’ as Dr. Subhash Chandra’s dream and aspiration to establish his own business from scratch is truly worth reading. The story showcases the high and the low points of his life and his never ending courage to become what he desired is a great example that inspires me and I am sure will inspire many like me when we look forward to achieve the goals in our life. All I would say is glad to have read this book.

    Fascinating and gripping

    Dr. Subhash Chandra journey shared in his autobiography is what The Z Factor is all about. This book has totally mesmerized me and I have learnt one good thing about this is, “If you have dreams, see it with open eyes.” Anything less than spectacular would be disrespecting the efforts of a man who worked hard to turn his dreams into a reality. I recommend you to read this amazing master piece of success.
