In the latest edition of ‘Principal Business Champions – Winning Ideas’, we asked IFAs across the country to share the names of two movies that have inspired them the most.
This poll is a joint initiative between Principal Mutual Fund and Cafemutual that offers a platform to the IFA community to share their valuable experiences.
Here are the entries that received the highest votes.
Winner on Website: Rakesh Lahori, R.K. Investments, Mumbai
I learnt from ‘Guru’ how a businessman overcame challenges in his life.
‘Guru’ and ‘Rocket Singh’ are my favourite movies. Both of them are also close to my heart as they portray various challenges that businesspersons have to face. Nevertheless, they do not succumb to these difficulties and find their way through undaunted.
This also resembles with current state of IFAs. We are facing challenges at multiple levels, but we must show the right attitude to thrive in life.

‘Bhaag Milkha Bhag’ is about never-say-die spirit.
Two movies that inspired me the most are ‘Jo Jeeta Wohi Sikandar’ and ‘Bhaag Milkha Bhaag’. Both the movies are about overcoming adversities and not giving up. This is also something that we should be prepared to follow in our personal and professional life. In life, we will always face difficulties and hence it is important to have a never-say-die attitude.
Winner on Facebook: Suman Meharia, Vasundhara Mercantile, Kolkata
‘Uri’ shows the power of teamwork and bold leadership.
The two recent movies that I liked the most are ‘Mom’ and ‘Uri: The Surgical Strike’
Mom beautifully narrates how a mother can go to great lengths for her children and fight against the system, which fails to give justice to her child. This gives me the courage to fight against all the odds at both professional and personal levels.
Uri makes me feel proud about being an Indian. It also shows the power of teamwork and bold leadership.
