The Pressure of Carrying a 190-Year Family Legacy | Akhil Gadgil | PNG Exclusive

What does it really mean to carry forward a legacy? In this episode of The Inheritor’s Club, host Tushar Rele sits down with Akhil Gadgil, next-generation entrepreneur at PNG Exclusive, to explore the realities of joining one of India’s most respected jewellery business families. Akhil shares what it was like stepping into the business at just 21, earning trust instead of expecting it, and learning the business from the ground up under the guidance of his father. From proving his first major business decision to navigating the expectations that come with a well-known family name, this is a conversation about leadership, responsibility, and building your own identity. Whether you’re part of a family business, building your own venture, or simply interested in leadership and long-term thinking, this episode offers practical insights shaped by real experience.
