Sridhar Vembu marriage advice: Zoho co-founder Sridhar Vembu has advised the youth to get married and have children at the age of 20. His reaction to a post by Upasana Konidela has now become a matter of big debate.
Many elders and doctors also say that 20 to 30 years is the right age to have children. But in today’s time, most of the girls want to be strong in their career and financially before marriage, hence they postpone marriage. Most of the employed and financially independent girls now marry only after 30. In such a situation, Zoho co-founder Sridhar Vembu has advised the young generation to get married and have children at the age of 20. He wrote about it on X, and his post has now gone viral on social media as well as become the subject of a huge debate.
Zoho co-founder Sridhar’s post went viral
Zoho’s Sridhar made this post in response to a post by Upasana Konidela, CSR of Apollo Hospitals Group and wife of actor Ram Charan. So let’s see what’s in his ex-post.
I advise all young entrepreneurs I meet, whether male or female, to get married and have children in their 20s, and not to put off the process. I tell them that they should fulfill their population responsibilities towards the society and their ancestors. I know these ideas may seem strange or old-fashioned, but I’m sure these ideas will resonate again, he wrote on Twitter.
What had Upasana tweeted before this?
I really had a great time interacting with the students at @IITHyderabad.
When I asked how many of you want to get married? So more men raised their hands than women.
Women seemed to be more career-oriented. This is the new progressive India.
Formulate your vision
give meaning to your goals
play your part
And see who can’t stop you, he wrote on Twitter. Zoho’s Sridhar Vembu’s response came in response to this tweet.
What is the reaction of netizens?
After seeing this post, people have started a big debate on social media. One user commented, ‘Everyone keeps advising to get married early at the age of 20, but no one talks about the reality. Today’s youth are not afraid of responsibility, rather they are afraid of how to build a family with unstable salaries, zero work-life balance and rent that eats up 40% of their income.’ To this another user replied, ‘I agree with you. But even those who can afford are not marrying and having children. Some people raised the question, ‘You say get married and have kids before you start earning, but what about those who tried to do so, had 3 kids by the age of 28 and are now divorced and broke?’
This post by Zoho’s Sridhar Vembu has been viewed by more than one million people and more than 800 people have commented. In this way, this post has sparked a new debate on the mindset of the young generation regarding modern lifestyle, family life, marriage and childbearing.
