Manan Ahuja - Founder, the Tales of Bangalore

Manan Ahuja

Founder, the Tales of Bangalore

Hi I am Manan, the founder of a recently inaugurated community called the Tales of Bangalore. A vibrant soul born on October 22, 2000, in the picturesque Pink City of India, Jaipur. After completing my graduation from Bits Pilani in 2022, I embarked on a new chapter in his life, shifting to the bustling city of Bangalore in 2023 for work.
Coming from Jaipur, the transition to Bangalore life was a stark contrast for me. Every person I met seemed to carry an untold story, a new chapter waiting to unfold. The city, with its unique characters and quirks, became the canvas for the ongoing story of my life.
This transformative experience led me to start "The Tales of Bangalore", where I aim to capture the beauty of the city, where technology converges with tradition, diversity harmonizes with unity, and every street and corner holds a story to be told.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

“eChai has been that turning point in my journey. It gave me a platform when I wasn’t looking for visibility but needed direction. Over the years, it became more than just a network. It became my tribe; a place where conversations sparked collaborations, and strangers became trusted sounding boards. What I value most is how effortlessly eChai brings people together - no airs, no filters, just genuine people with shared dreams. I owe a lot to this community and to Jatin, whose consistency and belief in people have shaped journeys like mine. Forever grateful to be part of something so real.”

"eChai is playing biggest role in my personal and professional life together. Its a community where i meet like minded people to share idea and learn from their idea. Even while playing cricket i learn something and i implement something new from that learning. Its my entry point for building network in different countries where my base is not established yet. Personally my only fun activity day in a week is eChai cricket and social."

"From late-night brainstorming over chai to early morning founder calls, eChai has been more than just a network for me; it’s been home base for ideas, impact, and inspiration. What started as a simple meetup years ago turned into a powerful movement, connecting founders, creators, and dreamers. I’ve had the privilege of seeing startups find product-market fit, marketers (like me) find unexpected collaborations, and most importantly, people finding their tribe. संगच्छध्वं संवदध्वं – Let us move together, speak together. It’s not just a verse from the Rigveda — it’s how Jatin and the entire eChai community truly operate. We don’t just network, we grow together. Forever grateful to be a part of the eChai Effect.
