His platform is exclusive to alumni from top-tier Indian colleges, aiming not to match people based on wealth, but on shared education, values, and intellectual compatibility. Taksh reflects on how social conditioning, biological timelines, and psychological flexibility influence the pressure to marry by a certain age.The conversation explores surprisingly honest truths about dating among India’s highly educated. Despite their credentials, many IIT-IIM grads struggle socially, and loneliness is more common than one might think. Taksh shares how girls often expect high income earning partners and most men run away from sharing household responsibilities. He breaks down what top 1% earners are looking for.Beyond dating habits, Taksh reveals the societal filters that still dominate matchmaking caste, horoscope, family background, and appearance continue to weigh heavily. He also talks about his commitment to protecting women on the platform, the surprising number of families still creating profiles, and why he chose Karan Johar as the brand ambassador.
